A&A Home Improvement | General Contractors & Roofing in Franklin, WI 53132

Yes, indirectly. While a new deck or addition doesn't directly stop ice dams, A&A Home Improvement ensures all new construction integrates seamlessly with your existing roofline. Proper design, flashing, and ventilation during projects like building additions or detached garage construction are critical. We assess and address potential weak points in your roof's thermal envelope to help prevent the uneven snow melt that causes ice dams and leaks.

Absolutely. A major remodel like a kitchen renovation is the perfect time for a proactive roof check. Opening up walls can reveal hidden moisture damage from past leaks. More importantly, our team can inspect your roof's condition from the attic during the project. Addressing any vulnerabilities in your roofing system—common after Wisconsin winters—ensures your beautiful new kitchen and home are fully protected from future water intrusion.

For new structures in Franklin, we prioritize roofing designed for our climate. For your detached garage, we recommend proper pitch, high-quality ice and water shield along the eaves, and adequate ventilation. This specifically combats the ice blockage and snow melt leaks common in our area. We build the garage roof to the same standards as your house, ensuring it withstands seasonal challenges and protects your vehicles and storage long-term.
