Roofing & Siding Contractor in Kenosha, WI

Roof leaking in Kenosha? Call (414) 312-1016 and we'll get out to find the source before the water finds your drywall. A leak almost never starts where the stain shows up on your ceiling. Water runs along the underside of the deck and drops at the low point, so we track it back to the actual failure instead of caulking the spot that looks wet.

Most leaks trace back to one of a handful of failure points, and knowing which one you have is the difference between a small repair and a bigger bill. Here's what we check first:

• Cracked or lifted flashing around chimneys, skylights, and wall junctions, the number one leak source on older Kenosha homes
• Ice dams backing meltwater up under the shingles at the eaves
• Failed pipe boots and rubber gaskets, which dry-rot and crack after about ten Wisconsin winters
• Wind-torn or missing shingles from the storms that roll in off the lake
• Nail pops and worn valleys where two roof planes meet

When a leak repair is the wrong call

We'll be straight with you. If your roof is already past twenty years old and the leak is one of three we've patched this year, spot repairs are throwing money at a roof that's telling you it's done. In that case a full replacement is the honest answer, and we'll walk the deck with you and show you why instead of selling you a fourth patch. But if the shingles have real life left and the leak is a single failed flashing or boot, a targeted repair is genuinely all you need, and we'll say so. Call (414) 312-1016 and we'll tell you which one you're looking at.

Vinyl siding installation is the most common exterior job we run in Kenosha, and for good reason. It's often one piece of a larger home renovation across Kenosha, where the roof, siding, and gutters all get handled together instead of as separate calls. On the mid-century ranches out toward Pleasant Prairie and the newer builds up in Somers, thicker-gauge insulated vinyl handles the lake-effect winters without the warping and fading that cheaper panels show after a few seasons. We install it over proper house wrap with flashing detailed at every window and door, because siding that isn't flashed right just moves the water problem behind the wall where you can't see it.

What actually drives siding replacement cost

Every homeowner asks what siding costs, and any contractor who gives you a firm number over the phone without seeing your house is guessing. The honest answer is that the price is driven by a handful of specific factors, and we walk the wall to nail each one down before we write your estimate:

• Square footage and stories. A two-story home needs staging and takes longer than a single-story ranch of the same footprint.
• Material grade. Builder-grade vinyl, insulated vinyl, and fiber cement each sit at a different price point, and we'll show you where the extra spend actually pays off in this climate.
• Tear-off and repairs. Removing old siding and replacing rotted sheathing or fascia found underneath adds cost, and older homes usually hide some.
• Trim, corners, and openings. The number of windows, doors, gables, and corners drives labor as much as the wall area does, since that's where the detail work happens.
• Insulation and house wrap. Adding an insulating underlayment costs more up front and pays back on Kenosha heating bills all winter.
