About HAVN Construction

Who is behind Cedar City Roofing?

HAVN Construction is a Utah-based roofing company with an office in Cedar City. We’ve been protecting homes and businesses across Cedar City and Iron County since 2009. That’s over 15 years of roofing work in a climate that doesn’t go easy on roofs.

We’re an independent, local roofing contractor, which means we aren’t tied to a single manufacturer. We install and stand behind top brands like GAF, James Hardie, Carlisle, Alside, and Soprema, so we can match the right material to your home, your climate, and your budget instead of pushing one product line. That independence, paired with more than 15 years of work here, is something we’ve earned the hard way, one Cedar City roof at a time.

We’re fully licensed, bonded, and insured in the state of Utah. We serve Cedar City, Enoch, Parowan, Brian Head, and the surrounding Iron County communities.

Our Cedar City office is managed by Roger Lundquist. When you call about a roofing project in the Cedar City area, Roger is the person you’ll be working with.

Why does Cedar City need specialized roofing knowledge?

Cedar City sits at over 5,800 feet of elevation, and many of the surrounding communities (Brian Head, for example) push well above 9,000 feet. That elevation creates a combination of roofing challenges you won’t find in most of the country:

• Intense UV exposure. At this altitude, UV radiation breaks down roofing materials faster than at sea level. Shingles that might last 25 years in a lower-elevation city can deteriorate noticeably faster up here without the right materials and installation.
• Heavy snow loads. Winter storms can dump significant snow on roofs, and the freeze-thaw cycle puts enormous stress on flashing, valleys, and any existing weak points.
• High winds. Southern Utah wind is no joke. Improperly installed shingles or flashing won’t survive a typical spring windstorm, let alone the big ones.
• Temperature swings. It’s common to see 40-degree temperature changes in a single day. That constant expansion and contraction wears on roofing systems over time.

We deal with these conditions every day. When we recommend a material or installation method, it’s because we’ve seen how it performs through Cedar City winters and summers, not because it looked good in a manufacturer’s brochure from a different climate zone.

What sets HAVN Construction apart from other roofers?

A few things make us different, and they’re all rooted in how we actually work, not marketing claims:

Manufacturer independence. Because we aren’t locked into one supplier, we choose materials based on what your roof actually needs. We work directly with leading manufacturers, including GAF, James Hardie, Carlisle, Alside, and Soprema, which lets us pair quality products with fair pricing and back your roof with strong manufacturer material warranties plus our own workmanship warranty.

Full insurance claim assistance. Dealing with insurance after storm damage is stressful. We handle the documentation, meet with adjusters, and walk you through the process from start to finish. We know what insurance companies need to see and how to make the process as smooth as possible for you.

Local knowledge. We roof here. We know which neighborhoods get hit hardest by wind, which slope orientations take the most UV punishment, and which materials hold up best at elevation. That knowledge directly affects the quality of work we do on your home.

Local accountability. When you call us, you’re talking to the people who own the business and do the work. There’s no corporate layer between you and the person responsible for your roof. Our reputation in this community is personal to us.

What values guide how you work?

We run our business on a few straightforward principles:

Honest assessments. If your roof has five more good years in it, we’ll tell you. We don’t manufacture urgency to close a sale. When we inspect your roof, you’ll get a truthful evaluation of its condition and your options.

Transparent pricing. You’ll know what the job costs before we start. No hidden fees, no surprise charges after the fact. We provide detailed written estimates so you can make an informed decision.

Quality materials, properly installed. The best shingles in the world won’t protect your home if they’re installed wrong. Our experienced, trained crews follow manufacturer installation specifications to the letter, which keeps the material warranties from brands like GAF, James Hardie, and Carlisle intact and lets us stand behind our work.

Clean job sites. We pick up after ourselves: every nail, every scrap of old shingle. We run magnets across your yard and driveway when we’re done. Your property should look better when we leave, not worse.

Respect for your home. We treat your property the way we’d treat our own. That means protecting landscaping, being careful with siding and gutters during tear-off, and communicating with you throughout the project so there are no surprises.
