Shonns Construction | Landscaping & Roofing in Milwaukee, WI 53212

Milwaukee's freeze-thaw cycles and heavy snow can lead to specific issues like decking rot and spring leaks. Our roofing process is designed for this climate. During inspections and replacements, we carefully assess the decking for hidden moisture damage from ice dams or condensation. For repairs or new installations, we prioritize proper ventilation and high-quality underlayment to prevent future rot. When addressing leaks after snow melts, we trace the water path back to its source, often at valleys, flashing, or around chimneys, ensuring a repair that holds up through the next winter. We use materials proven to withstand Wisconsin's weather to give you a durable, long-lasting roof.

Absolutely. As a full-service contractor, we uniquely manage the entire project. Our masonry and concrete team will construct a durable patio, porch, or terrace designed for our local frost lines. Then, our landscaping crew seamlessly takes over to handle the surrounding installation—whether it's shrub planting, creating defined garden beds, or installing functional landscape features. This integrated approach means one point of contact, a unified design vision, and a coordinated timeline, ensuring your new outdoor living space is both beautifully built and thoughtfully landscaped to thrive in Milwaukee's environment.

We provide a complete gutter system service: installation of new systems, repair of sagging or leaking sections, full replacement, and routine cleaning. For Milwaukee homes, gutters are a critical first line of defense. They channel melting snow and heavy rain away from your roof, siding, and foundation. Clogged or damaged gutters can lead to ice dams in winter, which cause roof leaks and decking rot, or to water pooling around your foundation, which can compromise masonry and concrete work. Our services ensure your gutter system functions properly year-round, protecting your roofing and masonry investments from water damage.
