Roofing Systems Heins Contracting Installs
A roof rarely warns you before it fails. For most Southern Wisconsin homeowners, the first sign shows up after the damage has already happened. A ceiling stain. A shingle in the driveway. An insurance adjuster pointing at hail strikes you couldn't see from the ground. By the time those signs appear, the deck and insulation underneath may already be involved. Choosing a roofing contractor before you need one is the cheaper, less stressful conversation.
Heins Contracting has installed roofs across Southern Wisconsin since 2015. Roofing makes up about half of our business, and asphalt shingle work covers most of those projects. We're a GAF Master Elite contractor and 2-Star President's Club member, with certified installer status for North Country Slate and Brava on the specialty side. Every project carries our 10-year workmanship warranty in addition to the applicable manufacturer coverage.
Roofing Systems We Install
From asphalt shingles on a standard residential install to slate on a century-old farmhouse, we work with most roofing systems used on Southern Wisconsin homes. Each option below comes with its own performance profile, price point, and installation requirements. We also offer storm damage repair and ice dam removal.
Asphalt shingle roofs hold up well in tough climates, come in profile choices ranging from basic three-tab to high-end designer styles, and offer the strongest combination of cost and performance for most homes in the region. As a GAF Master Elite contractor, we're approved to install GAF's full product line and to register the extended warranty options that uncertified contractors can't access.
Metal roofing trades a higher upfront cost for a longer service life, often 50 years or more, depending on the system. Steel and aluminum panels withstand Wisconsin's snow loads and freeze-thaw cycles without the wear patterns that shorten shingle life. Profile and color options have expanded considerably in recent years, so the system on your home doesn't have to look like a pole barn. Metal makes the most sense for homeowners planning to stay in the property long term.
Natural slate is among the longest-lasting roofing materials available, with service lives often measured in centuries on properly built homes. We're a certified installer for North Country Slate, which produces slate from quarries in Newfoundland and ranks among the higher-quality natural slate options on the market. Slate isn't a fit for every home or budget, but for the right project, the appearance and longevity are difficult to match.
Brava composite tile gives homeowners the look of natural slate or cedar shake at a fraction of the weight and a more accessible price point. The synthetic material is engineered for impact resistance and color stability, both of which matter in Wisconsin's storm patterns. We're a Brava certified installer, which means we follow the manufacturer's installation specs to maintain warranty coverage and product performance.
Flat roofing is commonly used for commercial buildings and some residential properties. Flat roofing is more vulnerable to water damage than sloped roofing, so it is essential to ensure that the installation and repair work is done correctly.
Roof coatings are used to protect and extend the life of roofs. We offer roof coating services that include reflective coatings to improve energy efficiency, waterproof coatings to prevent water damage, and anti-fungal coatings to prevent mold and mildew growth.
What Southern Wisconsin Winters Demand From a Roof
Wisconsin's freeze-thaw cycle is among the more punishing conditions a roof faces in the Midwest. With roughly 45 inches of snowfall, 34 inches of rainfall, and temperature swings from below zero in January to the upper 80s in July, water works into small gaps or unsealed seams, freezes, and repeats the cycle dozens of times between November and March. Add in ice dams forming at cold eave edges and the snow loads that come with a hard winter, and roofing systems engineered for milder climates often fail prematurely. A roof that holds up here needs materials rated for the climate and a contractor who installs them to manufacturer specifications.
How the Roofing Process Works
Getting a new roof shouldn't require prolonged back-and-forth or high-pressure sales conversations. We keep the process direct from estimate through completion.
It starts with a free estimate. We inspect the roof, assess existing conditions, identify any structural or ventilation concerns, and walk you through what the project involves. That on-site inspection shapes the scope and material recommendations so you're not working from guesswork on timing or budget.
Once you're ready to move forward, we schedule the work and walk you through what to expect on installation day. During the project, we handle quality control at each stage rather than only at the end. After completion, we do a final walkthrough so you can see exactly what was done.
