— Residential Roofing · Maintenance & Care
Roofs rarely fail overnight. They fail from small things left alone: a lifted shingle, cracked sealant, a clogged valley. Buckshot's roof maintenance and care program keeps your roof inspected, sealed, and documented on a schedule across Wisconsin and Iowa, so it reaches the full life you paid for.

— What's Covered
SEC 01 / 07
A care visit isn't a quick glance from the driveway. It's a full, documented once-over of the parts that fail first.
— Why Maintain
SEC 02 / 07
Maintenance is the cheapest roofing you'll ever buy. Here's what staying on top of it actually does for you.
Small fixes caught early keep wear from snowballing, so your roof reaches its full lifespan.
Many manufacturer warranties expect upkeep. Documented visits give you the records to back a claim.
A reseal during a visit costs a fraction of the decking and drywall a hidden leak destroys.
We spot hail and wind damage early and document it, which matters when it's time to file.
— Choose Your Plan
SEC 03 / 07
Pick the cadence that fits your roof and your peace of mind. Plan pricing is set to your roof, just ask.

— Who It's For
SEC 05 / 07
A care plan pays off whether your roof is brand new or counting its final years.
You just made a big investment. A plan protects it and keeps your warranty valid from day one.
Near the end of its life? Smart upkeep can squeeze out extra years before a full replacement.
You fixed one leak. Regular checks make sure a new one never sneaks up on you again.
Own a rental or just have a full plate? We watch the roof so you don't have to think about it.
— Why Buckshot
SEC 06 / 07
Earned, Not Claimed
A care plan only works if the company is around to honor it. Buckshot has been a family business since 1979, with our own crews and a reputation we keep local, so the people inspecting your roof this spring are the same ones back in the fall.

FAQ
A good rule is once a year, and twice a year in a climate like ours, in spring to catch winter damage and in fall to prep for the next one. After any major storm is smart too.
Especially then. A new roof is a big investment, and many manufacturer warranties expect upkeep. Documented visits protect both the roof and your warranty coverage from year one.
A full inspection of shingles, flashing, valleys, and penetrations, a sealant check, debris clearing, a gutter and attic look, minor fixes on the spot, and a photo-documented report with recommendations.
Plan pricing depends on your roof’s size, pitch, and complexity, so we set it for your home rather than quote a one-size number. Send the form and we’ll get you plan details and pricing.
We handle minor fixes during the visit. For anything bigger, you get it documented with photos and a clear estimate, and care-plan customers get priority scheduling. See roof repair →
Yes. We document your roof’s condition over time and assess storm and hail damage at each visit, which gives you a record that can support a claim. See insurance claims →
