A clogged drain, an open seam, a puncture from a service tech - left alone, they become the leak that soaks your inventory. A Buckshot maintenance program across Wisconsin catches them on a semi-annual visit, with photo-documented, warranty-compliant reports. It’s the cheapest roof work you’ll ever buy.
Tap a point on the roof to see exactly what we inspect - and why it matters.
The #1 cause of ponding
What we check
Every drain, scupper and gutter is cleared of debris so water flows off the roof freely, with no standing pools.
Why it matters
Clogged drains are the single biggest cause of ponding water which finds weak seams and piles extra load onto your deck.
First place water gets in
What we check
We probe seams and laps and scan the field for blisters, punctures, bruising and UV or winter cracking.
Why it matters
Seams are the first point water penetrates a flat membrane, and a small puncture lets water travel where you can’t see it.
Walls & edges
What we check
Wall transitions, parapets and coping joints are inspected and resealed wherever they’ve started to open up.
Why it matters
Edge and wall details flex and separate over time, and once they open, water runs behind the membrane and into the building.
Leak-prone penetrations
What we check
Curbs, vents, pipes and every penetration are checked and resealed, and we look for damage left by service techs.
Why it matters
Every penetration is a potential leak and technicians servicing rooftop units are a common source of fresh punctures.
Storm & winter stress
What we check
After storms we look for opened seams and bruised membrane; in our climate we watch for splits and shrinkage in aging membrane.
Why it matters
Storms and freeze-thaw quietly open seams and split older membrane catching it early keeps a repair from becoming a replacement.
Fixed on the spot
What we check
Debris is cleared and small problems caulking, seam and flashing fixes are handled during the visit.
Why it matters
Small fixes done on the day stop the slow leaks that turn into interior damage and emergency call-outs.
Every finding lands in a photo-documented report with recommendations and budget - and stays on file as warranty-compliant records.
Roofs rarely fail all at once - they fail from small things left alone. A program keeps the small things small.
Most manufacturer warranties require documented maintenance - skip it and you can void your coverage. We keep the records on file.
We find the open seam or clogged drain before it becomes water on your inventory, a tenant claim, or an emergency call.
A planned semi-annual cost instead of surprise invoices - you can budget the roof instead of reacting to it.
Small repairs done on time push a costly replacement years down the road, protecting the asset you already paid for.
Every visit ends in a report with findings, recommendations and budget - so you always know the true state of your roof.
When something bigger does come up, program customers move to the front of the line ahead of the general queue.
Three levels of coverage - every one includes documented, warranty-compliant reports. We set the exact plan per building.
2 visits / yrspring & fall inspectionFull membrane, drain, flashing and equipment inspection, debris removal, and a photo-documented report on file.
2-4 visits / yrinspection + minor repairsEverything in Essential, plus minor repairs handled on the spot - caulking, seam and flashing fixes - and priority scheduling.
Multi-siteconsistent across every buildingOne program and one point of contact across all your locations, with the same inspections and documentation everywhere.
Pricing is set per building - it depends on roof size, type, access and the number of buildings. As a guide, proactive maintenance commonly runs about 8-15¢ per sq ft per year, a fraction of what reacting to failures costs. Your written plan spells out the exact number.
We maintain the commercial roof types across Wisconsin - and know exactly what each one needs.
We keep welded seams sound and drains clear, and catch punctures and shrinkage before they let water under the membrane.
We watch for splits, blisters and open laps in aging asphalt roofs and seal them before they spread.
We check fasteners, seams and flashings for the rust spots and small leaks that quietly become big ones.
Already restored a roof with a coating? We keep it maintained so it delivers every year it’s meant to.
The same roof, two very different years. Here’s what a program changes.
Small, planned, predictable
Big, sudden, expensive
Who it’s for: facility managers, property managers, building owners and multi-site portfolio operators who’d rather budget the roof than get surprised by it.
A maintenance program is only worth it if the records hold up. We keep warranty-compliant documentation on every visit, run the inspections with our own crews, and give you one point of contact across every building.

No guesswork - just a roof that gets looked after on a schedule you can count on.

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!Posted on 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.Posted on 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!Posted on Google![]()

*update* number 2 I have been through about 4 different people now to get my issue fixed. They came and fixed the side that was leaking. The contractor that came out confirmed the siding wasnt installed properly and put in some flashing to fix the issue. Since it wasnt installed right i wanted the rest of the house done to prevent other issues and the company agreed to do that. Still not done and now im dealing with yet another person who has not contacted me to resolve my issue. Told them when this job was completed i wanted a new patio door as well to get the last year of the energy credit. Crickets. I have been very patient, but am beyond frustrated at this point. *update* After posting i was contacted regarding my review. Turns out the reason i wasn’t contacted was because my salesman is no longer with the company and never responded to tell me that when i called him (his number was still correct at the time of the call). I had a rep come to my home and immediately discuss solutions to the issue. Everything was done properly on my home, its just one of those things no one could foresee. I am beyond happy with the speed things are moving once i was contacted. Already making plans for additional work needed next season. Had windows and siding done. The windows crew was fantastic. Personable as well as professional. Siding crew was also great. My issue comes with the after care. My basement was leaking during rains. It also leaked running the sprinkler for new grass. Contacted my salesman and never heard back. Been probably a month? Had a contractor friend of mine come look and the issue was the siding wasnt ran low enough (or a piece of flashing would have worked as well) to stop water from coming through the basement from under the sill plate. Id have even paid to have it corrected, but no call. My issue is a simple one, but the aftercare deserves a one. The total score is because their crews were great. The people in admin simply need to be better. I had to remove foam that was trafficking water in and will be using flex seal to create a barrier since no call was made back. Update as of april, 2026. After some frustrating back and forth one of their contractors came our and looked at my situation late summer of 2025. Confirmed the siding wasnt done properly and installed flashing where the leak was and i haven’t had an issue since. Despite the numerous tornados weve had. With that said, Fall of 2025 i told them (after being informed the siding wasn’t done properly by their guy) i told them while the basement no longer seems to leak, i want the rest of the house covered with that flashing incase their are other problems. i dont want to refinish my basement to discover issues. The “salesman” essentially accused me of only wanting free things and after him explaining to me how awesome he was and that i was wrong, i stopped the phone call. The subcontractors they hire are overall solid, but some of the staff have made the company unusable for me. Just be cautious if you use them. Communication is great… until they get your money.
At least twice a year, spring and fall in our climate, plus after any major storm. That cadence catches the small problems - clogged drains, open seams, storm bruising - while they’re still cheap to fix.
