    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!

    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.

    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!

    Iowa FAQ05 / 05

    Questions Iowa homeowners ask

    Straight answers on coverage, cost and how we work. Still stuck? Call and ask us anything.

    Ask us anything →
    Where is your Iowa office and what areas do you serve?Q1

    Our Iowa office is located at 25426 550th St, Centerville, IA 52544. We serve Centerville and the surrounding Appanoose County area, including Albia, Bloomfield, Chariton, Ottumwa, and other southern Iowa communities. For specific coverage questions, call (866) 642-5600. You can also view our Centerville Iowa location page for detailed local information.

    Do you offer free roof inspections in Iowa?Q2

    Yes — all roof inspections across Iowa are free with no obligation. We assess your roof for storm damage, normal wear, and structural issues, then provide a detailed written report. If storm damage qualifies for a claim, we provide documentation prepared to insurance submission standards. Coverage decisions are made by your insurance carrier per Iowa Code and your policy terms.

    Are you a public adjuster in Iowa?Q3

    No. Buckshot General Contracting is not an Iowa public adjuster and does not provide public adjusting services as defined under Iowa Code §522C. We document storm damage and provide restoration estimates as a licensed contractor. We are pre-approved through five insurance contractor programs to scope and complete covered restoration work, but all claims decisions are made by your insurance carrier.

    What does a roof replacement cost in Iowa?Q4

    In southern Iowa, residential roof replacements typically range from $8,000 to $16,000 depending on home size, roof pitch, and materials. A standard home with GAF Timberline HDZ asphalt shingles often runs $10,000–$14,000. We provide detailed free written estimates — call (866) 642-5600 or submit the form at the top of this page.

    What is GAF Master Elite certification and why does it matter in Iowa?Q5

    GAF Master Elite is the highest contractor certification in the residential roofing industry, held by fewer than 2% of US contractors. It requires verified licensing, insurance standards, quality reviews, and ongoing training. For Iowa homeowners, the practical benefit is access to GAF’s 50-year System Plus warranty — covering both materials and labor — which standard contractors cannot offer.

    Do you serve Iowa and Wisconsin from the same company?Q6

    Yes — Buckshot General Contracting is one family-owned company with offices in both states. Our Iowa office is in Centerville; our Wisconsin offices are in Madison and Brodhead. All locations share the same crew standards, certification, and warranties. View our Wisconsin roofing contractor page if you need service in Wisconsin.
