Frequently Asked Roofing Questions In Wisconsin

In Wisconsin roofing labor generally falls in the range of $1.50, $3.00 per foot which translates to roughly $40, $75 an hour. Those numbers are the same as in Minnesota, a little higher than in Iowa, a touch lower than in Michigan and noticeably lower, than the rates you’ll see around Chicago, Illinois. The variation stems from wage levels the complexity of the roof and whether a tear‑off is required. Weather & Climate Considerations
How does Wisconsin's weather affect roof lifespan?
Wisconsins weather, about 30‑36 inches of rain and 30‑100 inches of snow especially across the Lake Superior snowbelt, brings relentless freeze‑thaw cycles, gusty winds, off Lakes Michigan and Superior and persistent lake‑effect snow while even the moderate summer sun adds to the wear. All of these factors conspire to wear down shingles foster ice dams accelerate corrosion and ultimately shorten a roof’s lifespan compared with milder states. What is the most common cause of roof damage in Wisconsin?
In Wisconsin the leading culprit, behind roof woes is the ice dam, a ridge that forms when heavy lake‑effect snow meets a prolonged freeze‑thaw spell. Insufficient attic insulation or ventilation usually amplifies the problem allowing water to back up and ultimately damaging shingles and flashing. What is the best time of year to replace a roof in Wisconsin?
Wisconsins optimal roof‑replacement window stretches from May, into September a period when freeze‑thaw cycles and heavy snow are uncommon temperatures usually stay above roughly 45 °F and the forecast remains dry. In Wisconsin that span often narrows to June through September while in the southern part the season can linger into early October. Insurance & Storms
How common are storm-related roof claims in Wisconsin?
In Wisconsin roof claims that stem from storms are a regular occurrence, courtesy of the trio of hail, high‑velocity winds and hefty snow accumulations. The hailstorms that pepper the landscape in spring and early summer with the late‑winter lake‑effect snow and the ice dams it can forge keep the claim ledger full, especially in the southern and eastern counties bordering Lake Michigan and, in districts where roofs have seen better days. Whenever a regional severe‑storm outbreak rolls in the tally of claims jumps sharply. What natural disasters in Wisconsin cause the most roof replacements?
Across Wisconsin roof replacements usually follow a string of weather‑related damage: summer hailstorms and the fierce winds that ride thunderstorm fronts tornadoes that sweep through the central and southern counties, heavy snow and ice dams that accumulate during polar‑vortex cold snaps and trees toppled by violent storms. Notable episodes, such, as the 2014 vortex and the frequent Lake Michigan coastal storms, have left swaths of roofs in ruin. Top Roofing Contractors in Wisconsin
