Roof Repair in Milwaukee

Leaks, storm damage, ice dams and emergency tarping — we're reachable 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Most roof leaks are not where you think they are. Water enters at one point, runs along the decking or a rafter, and appears on your ceiling somewhere else entirely. Which is why the first thing we do is find the actual source rather than patching the nearest suspicious-looking spot.

We repair roofs across the Milwaukee metro, residential and commercial. If it’s an emergency — active leak, storm damage, tree limb through the roof — call us any time of day or night on (414) 870-2585.

What We Repair

Active leaks

We trace the water back to its entry point, which is often several feet from where it's showing inside. Then we fix the cause, not the symptom.

Flashing failures

Step flashing at walls, counter flashing at chimneys, and skylight perimeters. This is where the majority of leaks on a pitched roof actually originate.

Vent boot and pipe collar replacement

The rubber collars around plumbing vents crack and perish long before the shingles wear out. A cheap fix, and a very common cause of ceiling stains.

Storm and wind damage

Missing, lifted or creased shingles after a storm off the lake. We document everything thoroughly for insurance purposes.

Hail damage assessment

Hail bruising isn't always visible from the ground. We inspect properly and give you an honest assessment of whether there's a claim worth making.

Ice dam damage

Repairing the water damage an ice dam caused, and identifying the ventilation or insulation problem that let it form in the first place.

Emergency tarping

If the roof is open and weather is coming, we get it covered and watertight, then plan the permanent repair properly.

Ice Dams and Why Milwaukee Roofs Leak in Winter

A significant share of the leaks we see between December and March aren’t caused by the roof failing at all. They’re caused by ice dams.

Here’s the mechanism. Warm air escapes from the living space into the attic. It heats the underside of the roof deck, which melts the snow sitting on top. That meltwater runs down the roof until it reaches the eaves — which overhang unheated space and stay cold — where it refreezes into a ridge of ice. The next round of meltwater pools behind that ridge and, because standing water finds its way under shingles, it comes through into your ceiling.

You can chip the ice off, and sometimes you have to. But the roof isn’t the problem. The problem is heat getting into the attic and not enough ventilation to carry it away. Fixing that — sealing air leaks, correcting insulation, opening blocked soffit vents, adding ridge vent — is what actually stops it recurring next winter. We’ll tell you what we find.

FAQ

Do you really answer the phone at night?

Yes. We’re available 24 hours a day for emergencies — active leaks, storm damage and anything that needs tarping before the next round of weather arrives. Call (414) 870-2585.

How much does a roof repair cost?

It depends entirely on what’s wrong. Replacing a cracked vent boot is a small job. Rebuilding failed chimney flashing is a larger one. We inspect first and give you a written price before doing anything.

Should I repair or replace?

If the roof is otherwise sound and the problem is localised — one flashing detail, a few storm-lifted shingles — repair is the sensible option. If shingles are curling across the whole roof, or it’s already past twenty years, you’re likely to be repairing it again shortly. We’ll give you an honest read. See our residential roofing page for replacement.

Is roof damage covered by insurance?

Storm and hail damage usually is. Wear and tear and age generally aren’t. We document the damage thoroughly and work alongside your adjuster through the claim.

Can you fix ice dam leaks?

Yes — both the immediate water damage and the underlying cause. Ice dams are usually a ventilation and insulation problem rather than a roofing one, and we’ll identify what’s driving it so it doesn’t repeat every winter.

How quickly can you get here?

For emergencies, as fast as we can safely get to you. For non-urgent repairs we’ll book an inspection at a time that suits you.
