Kraus Exteriors | Landscape Architects or Designers & Roofing in Portage, WI 53901

Absolutely. Proper landscape design is crucial for managing water drainage around your Portage home. We design grading and plantings to direct rainwater away from your foundation and roof perimeter, which can reduce the risk of basement flooding and mitigate the soil erosion that sometimes contributes to foundational stress affecting roofing structures.

It's a smart consideration. While our roofing experts will fix the skylight seal itself, we often check if nearby overhanging branches are contributing to debris buildup or physical damage. As part of our integrated service, we can design landscaping that keeps trees trimmed back appropriately or suggest alternative planting to protect your roof long-term.

Our combined knowledge in roofing and landscape design allows for a cohesive plan. For instance, when replacing a roof with cracking shingles, we can simultaneously design a landscape that accounts for new gutter drainage paths and enhances your home's new aesthetic. This integrated approach ensures all exterior elements work together for beauty, function, and durability.
