We are exterior contractors working in Fitchburg from a shop seven miles away on S. Stoughton Road, with 54 completed jobs across the 53711, 53713 and 53575 ZIP codes. Roofing, siding, windows, gutters and storm restoration — from 1970s ranches with decades of additions to the newest development on the city’s south side.
Tear-off and replacement, storm damage repair, and leak diagnosis on asphalt, metal, and flat systems. Wisconsin freeze-thaw cycles are hard on roofs — most of what we replace failed at the flashing and ice dam line, not in the field.
Full-frame and insert replacement in vinyl, fiberglass, and clad wood. In a Wisconsin winter the payback shows up on the January gas bill — we’ll tell you honestly whether your existing units are worth keeping.
Fiber cement, engineered wood, vinyl, and steel. We pull the old course back far enough to check sheathing and house wrap — cupping and buckling are usually a moisture problem, not a siding problem.
Seamless aluminum formed on site, oversized 6″ runs, and guard systems. Most ice dam calls we take are a gutter and ventilation issue combined — worth fixing together rather than one at a time. Here’s why ice dams form and how to stop them.
Same-day emergency tarping, a free HAAG-certified documented inspection, and we meet your adjuster on the roof so nothing gets missed. After a storm, two things matter — stopping active damage now and getting a fair, fully documented insurance claim.
When exterior damage can’t wait, our team is ready to help. We provide fast, dependable solutions for urgent roofing, siding, window, and storm-related issues to help protect your home from further damage.
Local conditions
Two things define the exterior work here: 1970s housing stock, and the additions that have been built onto it since.
The core of Fitchburg
Shallow pitches, aluminum window frames, original hardboard or aluminum siding, and 5-inch gutters hung when the trees were small. Every component on these houses is at or past end of life, which makes them the best candidates for a planned whole-envelope project rather than reactive repairs.
What makes Fitchburg different
A large share of this housing stock has been added onto — sunrooms, covered patios, family room extensions. Additions are almost never built at the original pitch, so you end up with two roofing systems on one house and a transition between them that has to be detailed correctly.
Standard suburban
The newer parts of Fitchburg build to conventional pitches with conventional materials. Straightforward houses — until someone adds a sunroom, at which point they join the mixed-system category.
Your mail says Madison
Fitchburg shares the 53711, 53713 and 53575 ZIP codes with Madison and Oregon, so many residents have a Madison mailing address. The City of Fitchburg still issues your permit and sets your code requirements, not the City of Madison.
Why one contractor
Most homeowners hire a roofer, then a siding company, then somebody for gutters. On a Fitchburg house that is exactly where the problems live.
The line where a low-slope addition meets the steep main roof is the most common leak point in Fitchburg. It is also exactly the spot where a roofer and a flat-roof specialist each assume the other handled it.
The addition was built in one go — roof, siding, windows, gutters. Twenty years later those components come due together, on a different schedule from the original house.
When the main roof discharges onto a lower addition roof, that is a drainage design question spanning roofing and gutters. It gets solved when one company is looking at both.
A house wearing three siding jobs from three decades will never match by patching. The only fix that looks right is doing the envelope at once.
When the roofer blames the siding crew and the siding crew blames the roofer, you are the one holding the leak. Our 25-year workmanship warranty covers the whole envelope.
We are closer to Fitchburg than to most of Madison. On an emergency that is the difference between this afternoon and tomorrow morning. That’s why our same-day emergency roof repair in Fitchburg can usually be on your roof the same afternoon.
Permits & code
Fitchburg shares the 53711, 53713 and 53575 ZIP codes with Madison and Oregon, so a lot of Fitchburg homeowners get Madison mail and assume Madison rules apply. They do not. The permit follows the municipal boundary.
Questions go to the City of Fitchburg Building Inspection office.

Fitchburg questions
The whole exterior. Roofing, siding, windows, gutters, soffit and fascia, and storm restoration across all of it. On a Fitchburg house with additions that matters more than usual, because the failures happen at transitions between trades rather than in the middle of any one of them.
No — our shop is at 2117 S Stoughton Road in Madison, seven miles northeast. That makes Fitchburg our closest market, closer than much of Madison itself. We have completed 54 jobs here and we can usually be on a Fitchburg roof the same afternoon.
No. Fitchburg shares ZIP codes with Madison and Oregon, so plenty of Fitchburg residents have Madison mail. The permit follows the municipal boundary, not the postal one — the City of Fitchburg issues it and sets the code requirements. We pull it either way, but it is worth knowing whose rules apply to your property.
Not if the pitch is below roughly 3:12, and most porch and sunroom roofs are. Asphalt shingles rely on gravity moving water off quickly, and on a low slope wind drives it back under the courses. Those roofs need a membrane system — EPDM, TPO or modified bitumen. If a contractor offers to shingle it, that tells you what you need to know.
The tie-in, nearly every time. That is the line where the low-slope addition roof terminates into the steep roof above it. It usually shows as a drip on the addition ceiling, which sends people looking at the wrong roof entirely.
Roof first if it is failing, because everything else protects a building the roof is meant to keep dry. After that, on a 1970s Fitchburg ranch the highest-return item is usually the patio door and the aluminum window frames. We will give you a sequence rather than quoting all of it at once.
Yes, and the low-slope work is the same work. EPDM, TPO and modified bitumen systems, plus siding and envelope work on commercial and multi-family properties.
