Signs That Indicate You Need a New Roof in West Allis, WI
Wisconsin weather throws a lot at us. Wind, hail, rain, snow, ice…and that’s just April. Your roof takes a beating twelve months a year. It stands tall gamely for years on end, but eventually loses the battle to both time and Mother Nature. The key to avoiding additional damage to your home is catching signs of wear and fatigue early. Being attentive to your roof’s performance and appearance is essential. Here a few things you can look for and steps you can take to help mitigate future costs.
Shingle Damage
Don’t be under the impression that a few missing shingles on the back of your home are just a cosmetic blemish that can be ignored. Missing, damaged, or broken shingles can be a sign of a bigger problem, and even that small area affected can lead to significant water damage to your home if left untreated. Therefore, you should every now and then, walk around the perimeter of your home to look for the very predicament. Gutters and downspouts can also lend clues that your roof is started to wear down. If you find an unusual amount of residue from your shingles, that’s another telltale sign that your roof may not have much time left. Let Mr. Roof come out for a closer look. We’ll get on the roof and let you know how worried you should be about the situation and whether a full replacement is something you should consider.
Water Damage
When you hear dripping water in your home, your heart often skips a beat. You may only have a problem that can be solved with a $2 washer at the home improvement store, if it’s a leaky sink. If your leak is coming from the attic or the ceiling, there’s a chance that your problem is much more severe and could be coming from your roof.
A good idea is after a big storm or snowmelt to check your attic. Look for any standing water or water stains on walls or the ceiling. If you find these conditions and can’t immediately figure out the cause, call us for your free roof inspection. You may not be able to see from the inside something we can find on a closer outside inspection. If it’s your roof, we can immediately get you an estimate on the cost for a replacement. Time will be of the essence to avoid any more damage.
Sagging Roof
You don’t need a roofer’s license to spot a sagging roof. This is usually pretty obvious from the outside of your home. If you notice your roof is sagging, you need to immediately call us. Your roof is in danger of collapse and that puts your entire family at risk. Don’t take any chances in this situation. Mr. Roof will be there as soon as possible to remedy this danger affecting you and your loved ones.
Aging Rooftop
The vast majority of us get through a good 20-25 years without having to worry about these aforementioned afflictions. Our roofs just get old (like us). Unlike us, our roofs can be replaced. If you know your roof is on the older side, or just as likely, maybe you’re a new homeowner not entirely sure how old your roof is, don’t dismiss the chance to take advantage of our free inspection. Knowledge is power and knowing how much longer your roof may have can help you plan and budget for that eventual expense. Don’t wait until you’re on the cusp of an emergency. Be proactive and approach the situation without the stress of having to make an important decision on your home on the spot. It will only be more expensive later, believe us.
We know West Allis homes. We’ll make the best possible recommendation for your style of home and budget. Your approval and satisfaction is why we do what we do. We would love to earn your business!

Discover the Best Types of New Roofs for Roofing in West Allis, WI
When the day has come to install your new West Allis roof, you should know there are many different looks your new roof can take. Here are five of the most popular residential roofs today:
Asphalt Shingles
Asphalt shingles are the most popular roofing material used today in the upper Midwest. Covering homes for over 100 years, they are known for their durability and a wide selection of available colors and designs. The average asphalt roof will last around 20 years. The top considerations for choosing asphalt usually come down the price (they are relatively inexpensive) and energy efficiency. As asphalt reflects the sun’s rays away from your home, you may see lower cooling bills in the summer.
Slate Shingles
If you’re looking for the Mercedes-Benz of shingles, take a moment to check out our selection of slate shingles. You’ll pay a premium price, but you’ll get the highest possible quality. Some of our slate shingles are rated to last for nearly 100 years. Slate is fire and rot resistant and looks absolutely gorgeous. Aside from cost, the one drawback to slate is weight. Not every house frame can support the heavier material which eliminates some home from being able to select these shingles. The experts at Mr. Roof can let you know if your house is eligible and what options you have. We’re just a phone call away!
Wood Shakes
For a rustic, cabin-like look, a viable option to select for your new roof is wood shakes. For over 300 years, people have used wood shingles on their homes. Today, a special coating is applied to the shingles to make them fire resistant which only increases their desirability. One unique feature that you may not immediately recognize is that the shakes are differently sized and shaped. It’s almost like a jigsaw puzzle on your house. Don’t worry, Mr. Roof is great at putting these together though and you’ll be amazed by the results.
Metal Roofing
Metal roofs are not just for industrial and office park buildings anymore. These days, more and more Wisconsin homeowners are turning to metal roofs for their homes. With a life expectancy nearly double that of asphalt, the long term cost savings can really add up. There can be some drawbacks in terms of noise and performance, but our associates will go over all that, if you’re considering metal for your roof.
Clay Tiles
Clay tile roofs are gaining in popularity and not just in the south and west portions of the United States. Midwesterners are starting to see the benefits of a roofing system that lasts for 50-70 years. Different color options make tile a viable option for many homes. Our inspectors will let you know if it’s a good fit for your roof, as it does work better with certain slopes.

Roofing in West Allis, WI: IInstallation Process
Replacing your residential roof in West Allis consists of three basic steps.
Step 1 – Preparation
We will never take for granted the trust you placed in us to complete this project for you and your home. We are truly appreciative. To show that appreciation the whole way through, we begin by looking out for your home and your property. Anything hanging on the side of your house will be taken down and we’ll protect your landscaping by covering it with tarps to shield it from falling debris. We’ll also disable any sprinkler systems as well. Lastly, we want you to know that we firmly adhere to all OSHA, CDC and COVID related guidelines. Safety, both ours and yours is our top priority.
Step 2 – Restoration
Next, comes the tear off of the old roof. Some companies will tell you that there’s nothing wrong with putting a new roof over an old roof. Would you just keep putting a new shirt over your old shirt every day? Would you put a new bandage over an old one? No and no. By not stripping the old roof off, you could be missing problems laying underneath the old roof and now you’ve just added a layer of roofing on top of that. You’ve also added weight to your house which could cause you foundation issues. It’s much better to remove the old roof, so we can get down to the roof deck, check for issues, sand it down, clean it and start off fresh with your new roof. The extra time and cost will be worth it, otherwise we wouldn’t recommend it. Soon, your new roof will be the envy of your block.
Step 3 – Cleanup
Don’t worry, that dumpster with your old roof in it is coming with us, we promise! We want the only evidence of our stay to be your beautiful new roof. We’ll haul away all our trash and dispose of it in an environmentally sound way. Everything else will be put back to how it was before. We won’t leave until you’re satisfied.
