Storm Guard gives Cottage Grove a full slate of exterior work built to hold up season after season: roof replacements, storm damage repair, gutters, siding, windows, and exterior painting. It all adds up to one thing, a property shielded from the wind, hail, and heavy snow that push across the flat farmland east of Madison.

Our residential roofing in Cottage Grove is matched to the neighborhood you live in, whether that is a century-old home by the old rail depot on Main Street or a newer build out in Grove Heights or Crawford. We choose materials by your roof’s age and pitch so it holds firm against ice dams and hard summer storms.

Along Main Street and out by the Highway 12/18 interchange, Cottage Grove businesses turn to our commercial roofing for durable flat-roof systems like TPO and EPDM that shrug off Wisconsin’s freeze-thaw cycles.

Cottage Grove sits on tree-lined lots where spring thaw and cloudburst rains can swamp an undersized system, so drainage is no afterthought here. We service, repair, and install gutter systems sized to pull heavy runoff and snowmelt clear of your foundation.

Fresh siding does double duty on a Cottage Grove home: it sharpens the view from the curb and forms a barrier against driving rain, hailstones, and the sharp hot-to-cold shifts that wear siding down across eastern Dane County. We handle both new installs and repairs.
Our crew fits and replaces windows with a patient, detail-driven install that seals out drafts and steadies indoor comfort through the long Cottage Grove winter, then keeps paying off in lower energy bills once the weather turns.

Our exterior painting gives your home a fresh face while laying down a shield against moisture, sun, and the rough weather that visits the Madison-area suburbs.

When a storm tears through Cottage Grove, from the straight-line winds this part of Dane County knows well to sudden hail and leaks, our emergency roof tarping moves fast. We secure a temporary tarp to stop the damage from spreading while we line up permanent repairs.
Working with a Cottage Grove roofer should not feel like a gamble. We map out every stage up front, from the opening inspection to the final pass across your driveway, so you always know what comes next.
We open with a thorough inspection that catches what shows and what hides: shingles the wind has worked loose, tired flashing, damp building up in the attic. From there we lay out clear options for your particular roof.
Then our Cottage Grove crew hands you a plain, line-by-line estimate that shows exactly where every dollar goes, with nothing tucked into fine print.
From there we do the work with proven methods and materials rated for Wisconsin’s full range of summer heat, hail, and deep-winter cold, finishing to a standard we stand behind.
We wrap up with a careful final walkthrough and a full cleanup, sweeping a magnet across the lawn and drive so not a single stray nail is left for tires or pets.
What brings Cottage Grove homeowners and businesses back to us is simple: solid workmanship and a crew that shows up when promised. Roof replacement, storm damage restoration, siding, painting, emergency tarping, it is all under one roof here. Reach out today to book your consultation.
Storm Guard provides roof repair, installation, inspection, and maintenance for residential and commercial properties throughout Cottage Grove. Our crews work with asphalt shingle, metal, and flat-roof systems, plus gutters, siding, windows, and painting, so homeowners and businesses across eastern Dane County have one local contractor for the entire exterior.
The most obvious tell is shingles that are lifted, cracked, or gone. Beyond that, keep an eye out for ceiling stains and interior leaks, the pockmarks hail leaves behind, and shingle edges that have started to curl with age or wind. Because Cottage Grove storms gather across the open ground east of Madison, catching these signs early is what keeps a quick repair from becoming a tear-off.
Replacement enters the picture once the trouble is spread out rather than confined to one spot. Telltale signs stack up: a roof beyond its rated years, shingles that curl, buckle, or go missing, a deck that dips, gutters filling with granules, leaks that keep returning, and creeping moss or algae. See a cluster of those on your Cottage Grove home and a new roof tends to cost less over time than patch after patch.
A typical Cottage Grove home roofed in asphalt shingles is usually finished inside a day. Move up to metal, or a roof with several planes, and the job can span two to five days. Since weather along the I-94 corridor can push a timeline around, we plan with room to spare and keep you updated as the work goes.
Every Cottage Grove roof we build carries two warranties working in tandem. The manufacturer stands behind the materials against defects, while our own workmanship guarantee covers how those materials go on. The result protects the money you put in and reflects the bar we hold ourselves to on each job.
Three things drive what a new roof runs in Cottage Grove: the size of the roof, the materials you pick, and how involved the installation is. We lay it all out in a free, itemized estimate so nothing is a surprise, and financing is available to spread the cost across your budget.
It does. Dark shingles pull in heat and can warm the attic and top floor through summer, while lighter tones reflect sunlight and take some load off the AC. With Cottage Grove running from muggy summers into cold winters, color is one lever you can use to balance energy bills against how the house looks from the street.
Ventilation lets the roof and attic breathe, which holds down heat buildup, keeps moisture from settling in, and stretches the life of your shingles. Trouble usually announces itself with stuffy top-floor rooms, a musty attic, or a jump in energy bills. The reliable way to know is a roof inspection, and it earns its keep in Cottage Grove, where sticky summers and snow-loaded winters both tax attic airflow.
The first failures usually show up where a roof is most exposed: flashing, valleys, and the joints around chimneys and skylights, all of which absorb the brunt of driving rain and ice. Give those areas a look on a regular basis, above all after a Cottage Grove hail or wind event, and you tend to catch trouble before it gets pricey.
Metal roofs hold up remarkably well, and with sound installation and upkeep they run 40 to 70 years. Standing seam systems live at the high end and slide snow off cleanly, which pays off under the winter load Cottage Grove carries. That easily outlasts a typical asphalt shingle roof.
Because flashing shields the spots most likely to leak, a re-roof is the time to put in new. Hold onto the old flashing and you leave behind weak points that Cottage Grove’s freeze-thaw swings and wind-driven rain can pry open. New flashing locks the whole system back up tight.
