Local Pro Exteriors | General Contractors & Roofing in Janesville, WI 53545

Yes, indirectly. Properly designed additions or decks by Local Pro Exteriors ensure adequate roof overhang and drainage paths, preventing snow accumulation that leads to ice dams. We also integrate proper attic insulation and ventilation into any addition project, key factors in preventing the heat loss that melts snow and forms dams on your main roof.

Address the roof first. Cracked shingles compromise your home's primary defense against Wisconsin weather, leading to leaks and further ice dam formation. Local Pro Exteriors prioritizes urgent roofing repairs to secure your home. Once your roof is sound, we can then schedule your deck repair or replacement to ensure a safe, coordinated approach to your exterior projects.

We focus on drainage and material selection. By using elevated designs and slopes that direct snowmelt away from the house foundation, we reduce the overall moisture around your home. Choosing durable, weather-resistant materials for your new deck also minimizes maintenance concerns, allowing you to focus on critical roof upkeep to prevent ice dams.
