Finding a Wisconsin roofing company you can trust should not be a gamble. Western Wisconsin roofs face heavy lake-effect snow, spring wind and some of the most active hail seasons in the Midwest, so the crew you hire has to know this climate. Northern Lights Metal Roofing is a GAF Master Elite® Residential Contractor serving Eau Claire, Chippewa Falls, Hudson, River Falls and the surrounding counties. This page explains who we are, how we work and why Wisconsin homeowners keep referring us.

What Sets Our Wisconsin Roofing Company Apart

Plenty of roofers can nail down shingles. However, only a small percentage of contractors earn the GAF Master Elite® designation, and we have. That credential requires proper licensing, adequate insurance, a proven reputation and continuing training. As a result, we can offer enhanced GAF warranties that most companies in Wisconsin simply cannot.

• GAF Master Elite® Residential Contractor — factory-trained crews and access to the strongest GAF warranties.
• Metal and asphalt specialists — standing seam metal, stone-coated steel and architectural shingles, so we recommend what fits your home rather than what we happen to stock.
• Storm and insurance experience — we document damage, meet your adjuster on site and build the scope so nothing gets missed.
• Full exterior services — siding, windows, doors, gutters, fascia and soffit, all under one contract.
• A dedicated Wisconsin phone line — call (715) 501-7663 and you reach the team that works in your area.

How Our Wisconsin Roofing Company Handles Your Project

A good roof starts long before the first shingle comes off. Because of that, we follow the same process on every job, whether it is a small repair in Altoona or a full metal roof in Hudson.

1. Free inspection. First, we walk the roof, photograph every slope and check the attic for ventilation and moisture problems.
2. Clear written proposal. Next, you receive a line-item quote with material options, warranty terms and a realistic timeline. There is no pressure and no vague allowance line.
3. Insurance support if needed. If a storm caused the damage, we meet your adjuster and supply the documentation your carrier asks for.
4. Installation. Our crew protects your landscaping, tears off to the deck, replaces damaged sheathing, installs ice-and-water shield and underlayment, then sets the new roof to manufacturer specification.
5. Final walkthrough. Finally, we run a magnetic nail sweep, review the work with you and register your warranty.

Where We Work in Wisconsin

Our Wisconsin work centers on the Chippewa Valley and the St. Croix Valley. We regularly serve Eau Claire, Altoona, Chippewa Falls, Lake Hallie, Menomonie, Hudson, River Falls, New Richmond, Somerset, Baldwin, Rice Lake, Black River Falls and Osseo, and we also take on projects in the Madison and Middleton area. If your town is not on that list, call anyway. We travel for metal roofing projects, and our Minnesota roofing team covers the Twin Cities side of the border.

Built for Wisconsin Weather

Wisconsin roofs face a punishing cycle: deep snow, freeze-thaw ice dams, spring wind and summer hail. Hail is, in fact, the most common homeowners insurance claim in the state. Consequently, we build every roof for the worst week of the year rather than the average one. That means ice-and-water shield well past code minimums at eaves and valleys, balanced intake and exhaust ventilation to stop ice dams at the source, and Class 4 impact-rated shingles or metal panels where hail is common. Moreover, as a Wisconsin roofing company that has restored many storm-damaged homes across the Chippewa Valley, we know which details fail first and we reinforce them.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are you licensed and insured in Wisconsin?

Yes. We hold a Wisconsin Dwelling Contractor certification and carry general liability and workers’ compensation coverage. We are happy to send certificates before any work begins.

Do you handle insurance claims?

We do. After a storm, we inspect and document the damage, meet your adjuster on site and provide the itemized scope your carrier needs. You pay your deductible, and we handle the rest of the paperwork.

Metal or asphalt — which is better for Wisconsin?

Both work well when installed correctly. Metal costs more up front, yet it lasts two to three times longer, sheds snow and resists hail. Asphalt costs less and, with Class 4 shingles, still performs well in storms. We will show you both options with real numbers.

How long does a roof replacement take?

Most asphalt roofs finish in one to two days. Metal roofs typically take three to five days depending on complexity. Either way, we give you a firm schedule before we start.

What warranties do you offer?

As a GAF Master Elite® Residential Contractor we can offer enhanced GAF system warranties on asphalt roofs, and metal panels carry their manufacturer’s finish and substrate warranties. Our own workmanship warranty covers the installation itself.
