Skip the articles and go to the page for what you need — each one covers pricing, scope and how to start:
- Roof Replacement in Appleton — A replacement on an older Appleton house is two jobs sold as one. The steep main block takes shingles.
- Roof Leak Repair in Appleton — Most leaks we are called to in the older parts of town are not in the middle of a roof. They are at a joint, and usually at the joint where a shallow roof dies into a wall carrying the runoff from everything above it.
- Storm Damage Restoration in Appleton — Storm work here goes wrong in a predictable way. The main field gets inspected, photographed and scoped, and the porch, the ell, the sunroom and the garage get counted as part of the same roof or left off the paperwork completely.
- Hail Damage Roofing in Appleton — Hail leaves different marks on the two roofs your house has. On a laminated shingle it shows as a bruise you find with your thumb.
- Wind Damage Roofing in Appleton — Wind takes roofs apart at the edges, and on this housing stock the edges are the oldest part of the assembly. The field may have been redone twice.
