Wisconsin roofs face harsh winters and warm summers. Milwaukee homes deal with heavy snow and ice. The freeze-thaw cycle is a major concern. Clay tiles, while beautiful, need careful consideration here. We understand Wisconsin's unique roofing challenges.
While less common than other materials in Wisconsin, clay tiles can be a beautiful choice for homes in Milwaukee. They offer a distinct aesthetic. However, their weight and susceptibility to freeze-thaw damage need careful attention. The intense cold and snow of Wisconsin winters can put stress on clay tiles. Proper underlayment and installation are critical to prevent water infiltration and cracking. We assess your home's structure to ensure it can support the weight of clay tiles. We also consider the roof's pitch to ensure proper drainage, which is vital in our snowy climate.
