HD Improvements | General Contractors & Roofing in Sturtevant, WI 53177

We tackle this local issue with a multi-step approach. First, our roof inspections identify areas of poor ventilation or insulation that contribute to ice dams. For new roof installations or reroofing, we ensure proper underlayment and ventilation are in place. We then install or upgrade to seamless gutter systems with adequate slope and downspouts, and can add heated gutter cables as a preventative measure to keep meltwater flowing and protect your roof and siding from winter damage.

Yes, leaks near penetrations like chimneys, vents, or skylights are very often due to flashing separation—a common problem we see in Sturtevant. Our roofing specialists will conduct a thorough inspection to confirm the source. We repair or replace damaged flashing using high-quality, weather-resistant materials and proper sealing techniques. For older roofs, we may recommend a section re-roof or full replacement if the flashing failure is part of broader wear, ensuring a long-lasting solution that stands up to our local weather.

When designing decks, patios, and porches for Sturtevant homes, we prioritize materials and construction methods that endure freeze-thaw cycles and moisture. We use pressure-treated or composite lumber for framing and surfaces that resist rot. For drainage, we design decks with proper slope and may integrate gutter systems on covered porches to direct water away from your home's foundation. This thoughtful, climate-adapted design ensures your new outdoor living space is beautiful, safe, and durable for years of Wisconsin enjoyment.
