Metal roofs, shingle roofs and honest repairs for La Crosse, FL homeowners. Family owned since 2002, and estimates are always free.
Everything we do on a roof, done by crews who have been doing it the same careful way since 2002.
Reflective coatings keep a metal roof cooler in summer and seal up the small stuff before it turns into a leak.
A skylight has to be woven into the roof, not caulked to it. That is the difference between a fix that lasts a season and one that holds.
This is the work our name is attached to. Two decades of tin roofs on houses, churches, barns and additions, installed by crews who cut the trim on site instead of forcing something that almost fits.
Full tear off, decking checked board by board, then a new metal or shingle roof over proper underlayment. You get the price and the start date before anything comes off.
One leak usually has company. We fix the one you called about and check over the rest of the roof while we are already up there.
Removing the ice is the easy half. We also look at ventilation and insulation so it stops happening every January.
After a storm we walk the roof, photograph everything we find, and write an itemized estimate you can hand straight to your adjuster.
Churches, shops, barns and small commercial buildings. We have roofed everything from a wood shed to a steeple.
Lifted panels, missing shingles, flashing that has given up where the chimney comes through. We find what is actually wrong, fix that, and leave the rest of your roof alone.
If wind got under your roof once it will try again. We fix the damage and close the edge back up so there is nothing left to catch.
Slate and tile take patience and matching pieces. We replace broken and slipped units and rework the flashing they hide.
Low slope roofs fail at the joints and around anything that sticks through them. That is where we start, not out in the middle of the field.
Inspections come free with an estimate. We would rather find the small problem this spring than replace a ceiling for you next winter.
We still shingle plenty of roofs. Cracked, curled and blown off shingles get replaced, and the valleys and flashing get reworked while we are up there.
Repair or replace, we handle both, and we work from what the roof actually needs rather than from what an adjuster might approve.
Guards and screens so you are not up a ladder every fall digging pine needles out of the gutter by hand.
The edge of a roof is where most trouble starts. New fascia, new soffit, wrapped or painted so it stays sound.
The layer you never see is what keeps water out on the ugly days. We do not thin it out to save a few dollars on a bid.
A twenty year old panel roof usually needs fasteners and sealant, not replacement. We refasten with new washers and get you another long stretch out of it.
Temporary cover goes on fast, then we come back and make the permanent repair once we can see properly what we are working with.
Here is what working with us looks like in La Crosse: you call, somebody comes out and measures, and you get a written estimate with the panel or the shingle spelled out on it. If you say go, we schedule you and we show up on that day.
The crew tarps the beds, keeps the yard picked up as they go, and runs a magnet over the drive before pulling out. Small things, but they are the ones La Crosse homeowners still mention a year later.
Why people around La Crosse call us back and send their neighbors our way.
The same family started this company putting metal roofs on neighbors houses in 2002. It has never been sold, franchised or handed off to a call center.
A few backed out screws or a whole roof off a church — we take both. No job is too small to get the same crew and the same care.
You get a start date and we hold to it. If weather moves your job we call you, rather than leaving you watching the driveway.
Somebody comes out, measures, gets on the roof, and leaves you a written price. No charge, no obligation, and no number that expires if you do not sign today.
If your roof needs a repair and not a replacement, we say so. Plenty of our best customers are people we talked out of a job they did not need yet.
Straight answers to what La Crosse homeowners ask us most often.
Often, yes. Plenty of the La Crosse roofs we get called to look at need flashing reworked or a section refastened, not a whole new roof. We will tell you honestly which one you are looking at, and if it is repairable we would rather repair it.
For most La Crosse homes, yes. A metal roof costs more up front than shingles, but it usually outlives two or three shingle roofs, sheds rain and snow better, and does not peel off in a hard wind. We will price metal and shingle side by side so you can compare real numbers instead of guessing.
Sometimes. If the decking is sound and there is only one layer of shingles, a La Crosse metal roof can go over the top on purlins. If there is rot underneath or two layers already on, we tear off first — and we will tell you that before you sign, not halfway through.
No. Estimates are always free in La Crosse. We come out, measure, look in the attic if we can get to it, and leave you a written price. Nobody will push you to sign anything that day, and the number does not expire in an hour.
We do. After a storm we photograph the damage on your La Crosse roof and write an itemized estimate you can hand to your adjuster. We do not file the claim for you and we will not promise you what an adjuster is going to approve — that is their call, not ours.
That is most of what leak work is. Water runs along decking and rafters before it ever drips, so the stain on your La Crosse ceiling is rarely under the actual hole. We work back to the real entry point, fix that, and check the rest of the roof while we are up there.
