Oshkosh roofing FAQ

Does wind off Lake Winnebago damage roofs?

Strong gusts can lift and tear shingles, especially on older roofs or ones that weren't nailed properly. After a windstorm, check your yard and gutters for shingle pieces. Even a few missing shingles can let water in, so it's worth having an Oshkosh roofer inspect the roof.

Are wind-rated shingles worth it in Oshkosh?

For homes exposed to lake winds, higher wind-rated shingles and proper installation can make a real difference. Ask local roofers which shingle lines they recommend and what wind rating applies when they install them using the manufacturer's required nailing pattern.

Will my homeowners insurance cover roof damage from a storm?

Sudden damage from wind or hail is often covered, but wear and tear usually isn't. Take photos, contact your insurer to start a claim, and have a local roofer document the damage. Policies vary, so review your coverage and deductible before signing any repair contract.
