Seasonal conditions can influence scheduling and how roof work is sequenced. Discuss expected conditions and communication before setting a date.

Ask what decisions the crew makes the day before work and what can shift with weather. Leave room for schedule changes when planning parking, pets and time away from the property.

If you're comparing replacement options, ask Dekoven Roofing for a written estimate for your property.

Plan around weather

Wisconsin weather affects roofing schedules.

Consider

  • Season and temperature limits for materials.
  • Scheduling flexibility.
  • Backlogs after storms.
  • Early booking.

Ask

What temperature limits apply to the materials proposed? What is the plan for delays?

Seasonal trade-offs

Spring and fall are popular because temperatures suit most materials. Summer is hot but workable. Winter work can be possible, but sealants and shingles may not bond properly in cold, so manufacturers often set temperature limits.

If your roof is failing, a temporary repair may be the right way to get through winter and plan a full replacement later.

Plan

Allow buffer days and book early for the season you prefer.

Frequently asked questions

Many roofs are done in warmer months, but ask.
