We offer very thorough and detailed roof inspections
Having your roof inspected annually or at the very least bi-annually is generally a good idea. Even moreso if the home or building you own is occupied by tenants, who may or may not be as attentive to your property as you (or us) would be. Roofing problems usually arise from poor installations, storm damage, or just deterioration of the roofing materials. Spotting these issues before they can cause significant damage to your home is key.
Brad's Construction offers complete roof inspection services for homeowners within our Dodge County and Winnebago County Wisconsin service areas. Our roofing experts can find out exactly what is wrong with your roofing system.

What Are We Looking For In A Roof Inspection?
There are a variety of things we're looking at when we inspect your roof. We aim to provide the most thorough inspections, often catching items other roofers might miss.
#1. Hail Damage: We carefully examine your roof for any signs of damage caused by hailstorms. This could include cracked or broken shingles, dents on metal roofing, or any other signs of impact that could compromise the integrity of your roof.
#2. Loss of Roofing Granules: A vital aspect of our inspection is checking for loss of roofing granules. These granules are essential for protecting your roof against the sun's damaging UV rays. Loss of granules can accelerate the aging process of your roof and may be an indication of nearing the end of its lifespan.
#3. Wind and Storm Damage: High winds and severe storms can wreak havoc on your roof. We thoroughly check for loose or missing shingles, damaged seals, and any other signs of wind or storm damage that may lead to leaks or other issues in the future.
#4. Poor Flashing Installations: The flashing is crucial as it helps to prevent water intrusion at joints or edges. We examine the quality of the flashing installation, ensuring it is adequately sealed and positioned correctly around chimneys, skylights, and other roof penetrations or where the roof meets a wall.
#5. Inadequate Roof Venting: A well-vented roof is vital for maintaining the longevity of your roof and preventing issues like mold growth or wood rot. We assess the quality and effectiveness of your roof's ventilation system to ensure it's promoting sufficient airflow.
#6. Additional Factors: Besides these primary issues, we're on the lookout for other potential problems, such as the structural integrity of the roof deck, potential signs of water damage, and the condition of the gutter system. We're committed to providing a comprehensive evaluation of your roof's overall health and stability.
We have many years of experience as local roofing contractors specializing in several different types of roofing materials and complex roofing projects. In short, we know exactly what to look for in roof to help the homeowner avoid expensive repairs or even roofing replacements further down the road.
Drone Roofing Inspections
Climbing up on roofs all day can be dangerous work, especially if the roof is extremely steep (high pitched). Thankfully we have a certified drone pilot on staff and using one of the latest aerial photography drones we can take detailed video footage and aerial photos of your roof without having to get out the ladder.
The use of a our drone can help us spot trouble areas and we can also take an aerial photo of your roof and import it into our estimating software to quickly produce accurate roofing estimates. Our drone is perfect for steep slope roofing systems or roofs that would otherwise be difficult or too dangerous to access with a ladder.
Roof Flashing Inspections
Part of our roofing inspections is looking at your existing roof flashing around dormers, chimneys, valleys, and other areas of your roof where two surfaces meet. Poorly installed, damaged, or even missing flashing are usually one of the most common causes for roof leaks and they are often preventable if the problem can be discovered early. Leaks caused by flashing problems can be small and may often go unnoticed for months or even years causing significant damage to your home interior. These leaks can go on for a long time before the homeowner discovers there is a problem. If you suspect your roof flashing is the cause of a roof leak we can thoroughly inspect it for you.
Roofing Ventilation
The ventilation within your attic is an overlook aspect of a roofing inspection. Inadequate ventilation can lead to problems with condensation build-up in your attic, it can contribute to ice dams, and other issues that are going to be expensive to repair. We can let you know during an inspection if your roof ventilation is adequate or if it would be a good idea to add more venting to your roof to help provide cheap insurance against future issues.

I had been wanting an egress window for years. We hired Brad's construction to install an egress window in our basement. We are very happy with the work. I have been able to add living space for the grandkids. It is so nice to have natural light in that area. The crew was professional and clean up was complete. Great job. Thank you!
We had Brad's Construction redo the whole outside of our house, new windows, siding, gutters, soffit and fascia. They did an awesome job. Taylor replied to all my questions within a day and was straight forward with everything. We got quotes from two other contractors and they gave us insane quotes and Brad's was super reasonable. Every single worker was so nice and professional, they got our huge job done in such a short amount of time and everything was always clean when they left for the day. I definitely recommend them to anyone looking, so happy we chose them, and I love the outside of my house now!
I can not say enough good things about Brads Construction. Anthony the sales representative is just an exceptional guy. So very kind and respectful. He really took the time to listen to what we had wanted and answered every question we had with complete patience. We needed our roof done sooner rather than later. From the time Anthony came over to inspect the roof and give us an estimate to time of service, it was outstanding. We had a little mishap with the delivery truck driver (not Brads Construction employee) and Brad came over to personally apologize for that and quickly offered to fix the damage. WOW! Again, exceptional service. We will be recommending them to anybody that needs their service and without a doubt be using them again if we need anything done again. Thank you Anthony and Brad for the great service! Keep up the great work!!!!!
Taylor and crew did an excellent job rebuilding my garage after a storm blew a tree onto it and partially collapsed it. The entire tear down and rebuild took only 4 1/2 days. Their meticulousness and attention to detail was greatly appreciated. The whole crew was friendly and worked really hard. I would highly recommend Brad's Construction .
I have used Brads Construction for a number of updates to our home including the addition of an attached garage, along with reroofing and residing our entire home structure. I am so impressed at the professionalism and expertise exhibited throughout this entire project by not only Brad and Taylor but the entire construction crew. They use the best materials and follow thru even after the project is completed to make sure all is satisfactory. If I ever had questions or concerns Taylor or Brad were always available to answer or remedy with no delay. This company is on my A-List in all areas as far as I am concerned, they truly are the best and I trust them with all aspects of planning, construction and execution no matter what the project. Thank you for everything!
Brad and crew installed my new steel roof only took 2 weeks to get nice not to have to wait excellent work guys!
Just had Brad’s Construction put in an Egress Window. The process was very professional. The men were very good and kept everything tidy and clean. The window looks fantastic. I would recommend them highly.
It was time for roof replacement, and Brad gave us an estimate a few years ago prior to Covid, but the project was forgotten until this year. I asked for another estimate this year- Brad and Taylor quickly responded, and our roof is done! The workers were respectful, cleaned up after themselves, and professionally replaced our roof in a timely manner.
Brads Construction replaced my deck and did a fantastic job. They were professional and timely. Any questions I had were answered along the way. Highly recommend.
So far they have done a small job. Waiting on supplies for a 3 car garage.
We recently contracted with Brad's Construction for a complete siding, roof, gutters, soffit, facia and skylight project. Our home was hail damaged and it was going to be an insurance claim. We had Erie Insurance and they were extremely difficult. Taylor stepped in and helped negotiate our insurance claim to get us the best possible settlement. He didn't have to do this, but he did and went above and beyond. We were very happy with that. Then the time came for the actual work to be done. I have worked with contractors in the past and I must say that the work these professionals did was outstanding. I'm a very detail oriented or "picky" consumer. I warned Brad ahead of time that I was a perfectionist. That wasn't necessary on my part at all because from beginning to end of the project they were always one step ahead of my questions. Their cleanup was superb and they left our home looking the best it has in 30 years. I would recommend them to anyone. My next project will go to them. Thank you Brad and your staff for an outstanding job. Special thanks to Taylor for making this all come together! You are all the best in the business!!!! Janice & Brian - Beaver Dam
Brad's Construction resided my whole house and put in a new patio door along with doing some structural repair around the door opening. They are one of the hardest working crews I've seen and they are really focused on customer satisfaction and their communication is excellent. Compared to others in the area I've used they are far and away better than all of them. Pricing was very competitive as well.
