Roof Insurance Supplement Help in Wisconsin

Wisconsin roofers face a challenging combination of severe summer hail and punishing winter weather. Insurance carriers routinely write estimates that fail to account for the rigorous installation standards required in Wisconsin’s climate.

Why Wisconsin estimates come in low

Similar to Minnesota, carriers often miss Wisconsin’s specific cold-weather requirements. They frequently omit ice and water shield at the eaves and valleys, and they notoriously underpay for steep slope and multi-story labor.

Common claim types in Wisconsin

Hail and straight-line winds dominate the summer months, while ice damming and snow load issues are common in the winter.

Top missed items in Wisconsin

  • Ice and water shield at eaves and valleys (RFG 191, RFG 190) — critical for warranty compliance in WI.
  • Multi-story charges (RFG STORY) — frequently missed on older, two-story Wisconsin homes.
  • Chimney flashing (RFG FLASH CHIM) — adjusters often try to reuse old flashing, which is against code and manufacturer specs.
  • Tear-off of multiple layers — older WI homes often have multiple layers of shingles requiring extra tear-off labor and disposal.
