Ebert Roofing | Roofing Services in Fall River, WI 53932

In our Fall River climate, the primary culprit is the repeated freeze-thaw cycle. Water gets behind the flashing, freezes and expands, then thaws, gradually prying it loose from the roof deck or chimney. High winds common to our area can also catch and lift poorly secured flashing. At Ebert Roofing, we inspect the integrity of the sealant and fasteners and often recommend a more robust, ice-and-water shield-backed reinstallation to prevent future lifting and leaks.

While underlayment is beneath the shingles, signs of damage often appear inside. Look for water stains on ceilings or in your attic, especially after a heavy rain or snowmelt. From the outside, curling, buckling, or missing shingles can indicate compromised underlayment underneath. Given the stress our Wisconsin weather puts on roofs, we recommend a professional inspection if you notice any of these signs, as damaged underlayment can quickly lead to more extensive structural issues.

Our repair process starts with a thorough inspection to assess all damage. For flashing, we carefully remove the affected sections, replace any rotted roof decking beneath, and install new, high-quality flashing sealed with premium leak-barrier products. For underlayment, we remove shingles from the damaged area, replace the soaked or torn underlayment with a new, self-adhering membrane for superior water resistance, and then re-shingle the section to match your existing roof. Our goal is a repair that's stronger than the original and built to withstand the next Fall River storm.
