- RHRobert HuguetSep 5, 20255.0Had our shingles, soffit, facia, and gutters replace in August. Jesse and Lana were great to work with. Very easy to communicate with and got the job done very fast. The crews did an amazing job from start to finish and were very clean when done. Loved that we had different options for shingles and underlayment. Jesse is very knowledgeable with all of it. Thanks again WTE for a job well done.
- SHSandra HartlJul 27, 20255.0Weather-Tite Exteriors LLC put a new roof on our home in Ashwaubanon and did a great job replacing wood that had rotted over the years and putting new shingles on. Very professional and did the complete job in 6 hours and left no mess or nails behind. Highly recommended if you are looking for a company to replace your roof. Sandy Hartl

- PBPhil BillingsMay 8, 20255.0Worked 3 days on attached condo roofs. Stated at 7am and finished daily at 6pm. Cleaned the area each day. Did not notice workers taking breaks. The gutter were installed on the 4th day. We highly recommend this firm. They even came back a week later with something to remove any nails from the grass.
- MBMikayla BrownDec 18, 20245.0I have nothing but great things to say about this company. After purchasing a house in Green Bay, my residence needed some roof repairs - my inspector recommended Jesse and his team and I’m so glad he did! Jesse was very quick to get me an estimate (we communicated via text, email, and over the phone) and he was accommodating of my schedule. Jesse and his team are very thorough, friendly, honest, offer fair pricing, and did a wonderful job on my house! 10/10 service, will definitely use again. I‘d highly recommend Weather-Tite for your next exterior needs!!
Frequently Asked Questions About Weather-Tite Exteriors
What makes a GAF Elite Master Contractor so good, and how are they different from a standard roofer or even a certified roofer?
GAF Elite Master Contractors make up only 3% of the total roofers nationwide. The reason? It is very difficult to achieve! GAF verifies the following items before granting a company the Master Elite status.
• Minimum 7 years in business – 1 year in their Certified program
• 99% customer satisfaction based on independent surveys from GAF
• $1 million general liability coverage + proper and valid workers compensation
• Satisfactory rating with BBB (We have an A+)
• GOOD or better credit rating
• Clean banking record (no overdrafts, negative info)
• Clean distributor reference (means we pay our bills)
• No liens, or judgments unresolved on record
• Great workmanship record
I think I may have hail or wind damage. Do you inspect for these types of damage?
Yes. Our staff is very experienced in hail and wind damage. Many companies offer to work with your insurance company, and in the next breath, offer to pay your deductible. Paying deductibles as a contractor is illegal. Our team will advocate on your behalf at the meeting with the Insurance adjuster. Remember the adjuster works for the insurance company, and we work for you. We will ensure that everything that should be covered is covered. Our goal is to get your property back to or better than pre-storm condition.
What is a complete roof system and what makes it different from an average roof?
The complete roof system that we install consists of all GAF products. We do this for a couple of reasons.
Number One: The product line is made up of quality products. By installing this system you can be sure that we are not asking our supplier for the cheapest ice and water, the cheapest 15# felt, or any other part of your roof. If your contractor isn't showing you the exact products that are going on your roof, you can bet you're getting the cheapest products the supplier has to offer and you're probably paying as much as you would for a quality system from weather-tite exteriors and GAF.
The Second Reason: we use all GAF products is the warranty. On a single-family residential home, we can offer a 50-year non-prorated full system replacement (transferable once within 20 yrs). This warranty includes all GAF products installed. So naturally we are going to have every part covered. This warranty will cover your ice and water barrier and shingle-mate underlayment (we offer 15# felt with every bid to provide you the option, however, this will not be a GAF product and as a result will not be covered by the warranty), starter strip, shingles, ventilation, and hip and ridge shingles (cap). By using this complete system we also avoid the possibility of a cheaper quality underlayment, ventilation product etc. From another company prematurely aging your roof and possibly voiding your warranty.
I think I may have CertainTeed organic shingles and they are failing early. How do I make a claim?
We have helped many homeowners file a claim and get a return from CertainTeed. If you think you may have these shingles, contact us. We will stop by and determine if your shingles are covered. If so, we will help you get your claim started. For more info on these shingles, you can go to www.certainteedshinglesettlement.com.
Do I need to replace my gutters when I replace my roof?
The technical answer is no. Replacing your gutters is a decision based on a many different variables. Take into consideration the remaining effectiveness when compared to your new roof. If your gutters need to be replaced sooner than later, then it is a good idea to replace them now to ensure the proper trim can be installed. This is especially important if you have spike style fasteners (large nails through the face). These spikes tend to work their way out with the thaw and freeze cycles, allowing water into the fascia board and rotting it out. The new gutters will be hung using hidden hangers and screws. The limited longevity and increased liability of your gutters may make the cost of new gutters easily palatable. Also, most homeowners would agree that the increased ascetics complement your new roof resulting in a very finished look. This is a good improvement especially when selling one's home.
How important is attic ventilation?
More important than many people think. Poor attic ventilation can ruin your insulation, destroy your shingles, and raise your energy bills. Proper attic ventilation systems allow a continual flow of outside air through the attic, protecting the efficiency of the insulation and helping to lower temperatures in the living space. It consists of a balance between air intake (at your eaves or soffits) and air exhaust (at or near your roof ridge, or peak).
It is estimated that 9 out of 10 homes in North America do not have proper attic ventilation. Why? Because most people are unaware that attic ventilation can impact the longevity of their entire home! For example, in the summer, improper ventilation can cause attic heat to build in excess of 160°F. This super-heated air eventually penetrates the ceiling insulation into the living area below. A properly ventilated attic can help reduce the load on your air conditioner by moving the super-heated air out of your attic before it builds up and causes damage.
In the winter, various household appliances, bathtubs, showers, and cooking vapors can contribute to excess moisture build-up. Improperly ventilated attics will allow this moisture to collect and cling to the underside of the roof. The moisture will condense and fall, soaking the attic insulation and reducing its efficiency.
Finally, attics should be properly ventilated to help prevent ice dams in cold northern climates like ours. During the winter, ice and snow on a roof will melt and run down the deck to the cooler eaves.
In the most recent era of home building attic ventilation has become a priority. With products from house wrap under siding and synthetic underlayments on roofs to higher R-Value insulation and windows and doors that actually seal, we have effectively stopped the house from ventilating itself.
