Common roof & exterior issues we see in Waukesha, WI
Aging architectural shingles on early-2000s subdivisions
A huge swath of Waukesha's housing stock was built or reroofed between 1998 and 2008. Those 25-year shingles are now hitting end-of-life — granule loss, bald spots on south slopes, and brittle edges. We catch a lot of homeowners right before the first interior leak.
Hail damage from western Waukesha County storm cells
Waukesha sits in a recurring hail track. We document hail strikes slope-by-slope with dated photos, plus collateral indicators on gutters, vents, and AC fins that adjusters need to write a full replacement scope.
Chimney & step-flashing leaks on older two-stories
On a lot of older Waukesha homes the original chimney flashing was face-nailed and caulked instead of properly step-and-counter-flashed under the siding. It looks fine for years and then leaks all at once. We rebuild these correctly, including pulling the siding back to install proper kick-out and step flashing.

Waukesha, WI FAQs
Are you actually local to Waukesha or driving in from somewhere else?
We're owner-operated out of Brownsville, WI, about 50 minutes north. We're not a Waukesha-based contractor pretending to be local — we're a Wisconsin contractor that works the entire SE Wisconsin region every week.
What's a typical Waukesha roof replacement cost?
Most asphalt reroofs in Waukesha run $11,000–$28,000 depending on square footage, pitch, layers being torn off, complexity, and material grade. See our roof replacement cost guide for a detailed breakdown.
Do you do siding and windows in the same project as a roof replacement?
Yes — bundling roof, siding, gutters, and windows under one project is usually cheaper per trade and gets the flashing transitions detailed correctly the first time.
How long is your workmanship warranty?
5 years on workmanship, layered on top of the manufacturer material warranties (lifetime limited on most architectural shingle systems).
