Welcome to the website of Buckshot General Contracting ("Buckshot," "we," "us," or "our"). These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") govern your access to and use of our website at buckshotexteriors.com and the information and requests you submit through it. Please read them carefully.

Plain-language summary

Use our site and you agree to these terms. Estimates we provide are free and not binding until you and we sign a written agreement. The real terms of your project, scope, price, schedule, and warranty, are in that signed agreement. We do our best to keep the site accurate, but we can't guarantee it's perfect, and the page below explains the limits.

01Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using our website, requesting an estimate, or otherwise engaging with us through this site, you agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the site. If you use the site on behalf of a household or business, you represent that you're authorized to accept these Terms on their behalf.

02Use of Our Website

You may use our website for lawful, personal, and informational purposes, including learning about our services and requesting an estimate. You agree not to:

Misuse the site, including attempting to disrupt, damage, or gain unauthorized access to it or its systems.Submit false information or another person's information without their permission.Copy, scrape, or reuse our content for commercial purposes without our permission (see Intellectual Property).Use the site to break the law or infringe anyone's rights.

We may suspend or limit access to the site at any time if we believe it's being misused.

03Estimates & Proposals

We're glad to provide free estimates and proposals. Please keep in mind:

Estimates are not a contract. An estimate or proposal is informational and does not become a binding agreement until both you and Buckshot sign a written contract for the work.Estimates can change. Pricing is based on the information available at the time and the conditions we can observe. If hidden conditions, code requirements, material costs, or scope changes come up, the price or timeline may need to be adjusted, and we'll discuss any change with you.Estimates may expire. Because material and labor costs move, an estimate is valid only for the period stated on it, or for a reasonable time if none is stated.Requesting an estimate creates no obligation for you to hire us, or for us to take on the project.

The agreement that matters

The full terms of any project, including scope, price, payment schedule, timeline, and warranty, are set out in the written agreement you sign for that specific work. Those project terms, not this web page, govern the work itself.

04Financing

We offer financing options through a third-party lender, Service Finance Company, LLC. If you choose to apply:

Financing is provided by the lender, not by Buckshot, and is subject to the lender's credit approval and terms.The lender's own terms, rates, and disclosures apply to any financing you accept, and you should review them carefully.Approval is not guaranteed, and Buckshot does not make lending decisions.

For details on financing, see our financing page or ask our team.

05Insurance Claims

We frequently help homeowners with storm and damage projects that involve an insurance claim. To be clear about our role:

We are a contractor, not a public adjuster. We can inspect your property, document damage, and work with your insurance carrier on the repair, but we do not negotiate, adjust, or settle claims on your behalf.Your insurer decides coverage. Whether a claim is approved, and what it pays, is determined by your insurance company and your policy, not by Buckshot.You're responsible for your deductible and any amounts your policy doesn't cover, as set out in your project agreement.

See our insurance claims page for how the process works.

06Warranties

We stand behind our work, and many of our projects are backed by both manufacturer warranties and our workmanship warranty.

Warranty terms are set out in your project documents, including the specific coverage, duration, and conditions that apply to your work.Manufacturer warranties (for example, on roofing materials) are provided by the manufacturer and governed by their terms. As a GAF Master Elite contractor, we can offer certain enhanced GAF warranties on qualifying projects.Nothing on this website is itself a warranty. The website describes our services in general terms; your actual warranty is the one provided with your project.

Trademarks

GAF, Master Elite, and related marks are trademarks of GAF. Buckshot is an independent GAF Master Elite contractor and is not GAF. FORTIFIED is a program of the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety (IBHS); Buckshot is not IBHS. Other product and company names mentioned may be trademarks of their respective owners.

07Intellectual Property & Content

The content on this website, including text, graphics, logos, photographs of our work, and design, is owned by or licensed to Buckshot and is protected by intellectual property laws. You may view and share it for personal, non-commercial purposes, but you may not copy, reproduce, or reuse it commercially without our written permission.

If you send us content, such as photos of your property, a review, or a message, you grant us permission to use it as needed to respond to you and provide our services. If you'd prefer we not use a photo or review more broadly, just let us know.

08Third-Party Links

Our website may link to third-party sites, such as a financing application, a manufacturer's site, or a review platform. We provide these for convenience and don't control or endorse those sites. We're not responsible for their content, terms, or privacy practices, and we encourage you to review them yourself.

09Disclaimers & Limitation of Liability

We work to keep our website accurate and available, but we provide it "as is." To the fullest extent allowed by law:

We don't guarantee the website is error-free, complete, or always available, and information on it may change without notice.The website is informational and is not a substitute for a professional inspection, a written estimate, or your signed project agreement.To the extent permitted by law, Buckshot is not liable for indirect or incidental damages arising from your use of the website. Nothing here limits any rights you have under your signed project agreement or rights that can't be limited by law.

Some of these limits may not apply where the law doesn't allow them, in which case they apply only as far as the law permits.

10Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Wisconsin, where Buckshot is headquartered, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute relating to this website or these Terms will be handled in accordance with Wisconsin law. The terms of any specific project are governed by the agreement you sign for that work, which may specify its own terms.

11Changes & How to Contact Us

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. When the big storms came through the Madison-area in April 2026, I immediately started looking for a reputable roofer—who also understood the importance of weather-resistant materials that can withstand hail and wind. It didn’t take me long to find Brad from BCG. We had damage that needed to be repaired before the next round of storms came through later that day and Brad had a crew out within hours. Our neighbors also had damage, and when their roofing company didn’t show up, Brad and his crew also took on fixing their damage on the spot.

The contracting process was done over email and we were able to clearly understand all of the options available to us. On the day of install, the crew was efficient and fast with their work. But also, mistakes can happen. And what matters to us is not that there’s perfection (because that’s not realistic), but how a contractor deals with a mistake. As they were taking down the tarps when they were finished with the roof, one of our lights next to the garage broke. Brad helped find a replacement online and had it shipped directly to our house! Such great service!

All in all, we were very happy with Brad and the service we received from him and BCG. We’ve since recommended their services to several of our friends and neighbors who also had storm damage. While I hope we won’t have to do that again for a long time, we would work with BCG again in a heartbeat!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am extremely pleased with the service Matt Walmer from Buckshot General Contracting (BGC) provided for me during the hailstorm damage in Madison in April. I had just switched insurance companies one year ago and was worried about how much they would cover. Matt assured me everything would be taken care of and had nothing to worry about. True to his word he immediately answered phone calls during off hours even when he was with daughter at volleyball and answering texts in seconds Matt met up with assessor and arrived 20 minutes early. During roof replacement he stopped in 3 times to check the progress and next day he came back to do a walk around to make sure the cleanup was to his standards. I have been so blessed to work with Matt at BGC as my contractor as everything went so smoothly. No problems with my insurance company and I was the first one on my block to get my roof done. I also was telling Matt about some of my neighbors having problems with their insurance and he was willing to look at their paperwork and giving them advice on how to deal with them. I can proudly say I announced to them how good Matt was and gave them his card. Thank you so much Matt for your excellent service and being a great representative for Buckshot General Contracting. These days days it’s hard to find a business that is 100% committed to making sure the customer is their #1 concern. Going to be doing more work and sticking with them as I know it will be top quality.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We contacted BGC after storm damage and had them completely re-roof and re-side our house, garage, and shed. The entire process was incredibly smooth from start to finish. They were easy to work with, handled all the details, and made what could have been a stressful situation completely worry-free.
Our contact, Jayce Kirkland, was outstanding. His professionalism, communication, and courteous demeanor were truly a breath of fresh air. He took care of everything for us and made sure the project stayed on track every step of the way. We couldn’t be happier with the experience and have and would highly recommend BGC to anyone needing roofing or siding work!

My family member needed a roof replacement after the recent storm in Madison , Chad came out to inspect the roof and went over the options with us. Full roof replacement and the new roof looks GREAT, they were done with in 2 days and left no mess behind which was very thankful for.

Thanks !!
