Kenosha's lakefront bungalows and mid-century ranches take a beating from Lake Michigan weather, and the freeze-thaw cycles off the lake don't do roofs any favors. If you live near Simmons Island or along the streets off Sheridan Road, you know how fast ice dams and wind-driven rain can find a weak spot.
That's why homeowners in Kenosha (53142) call Milwaukee Metal Roofing. We've replaced and repaired metal roofs on everything from the older homes near Library Park to the brick ranches out toward I-94, and we know what Southeast Wisconsin winters do to fasteners, seams, and flashing.
Metal Roofing in Kenosha (53142)
Kenosha sits right on the lake, and that means two things for your roof: wind and moisture. The lakefront homes near Eichelman Park and the Southport neighborhood catch the full force of nor'easters off the water, while the older bungalows and ranches inland deal with heavy snow loads and ice damming at the eaves. Many of these homes were built in the 1940s through the 1960s with low-pitch roofs that were never designed for the freeze-thaw cycles we get here. We see a lot of failed fasteners, separated seams, and flashing gaps that let water sneak in behind chimneys and skylights. Our team knows how to handle the tight lots and mature trees around Petrifying Springs and the older streets off 60th Street, where access can be tricky and falling limbs are a real threat.
We've been serving Kenosha and the surrounding Milwaukee area for years, and we've worked on everything from standing seam installations on lakefront cottages to R-panel retrofits on garages and outbuildings. If you're in 53142 or anywhere in Kenosha County, we can give you a straight answer on what your roof needs.

How a Job Works in Kenosha
Step 1: You call us at (414) 219-0818 or fill out our contact form, and we schedule a free on-site assessment. We'll walk your roof, check the flashing, fasteners, and seams, and give you a written estimate with options. No pressure, no sales pitch.
Step 2: Once you approve the scope, we pull the permits with the City of Kenosha building department and schedule the work. If you're in a historic district or an HOA, we'll help you get the design approval you need before we order materials. On tight lots near the lake or in older neighborhoods, we plan for staging and access so we don't tear up your landscaping.
Step 3: When the job's done, we clean up every nail and scrap, do a final walkthrough with you, and make sure you know how to maintain your new roof. We leave your property cleaner than we found it.
Pricing in Kenosha depends on the size and pitch of your roof, the condition of the decking, and how accessible the property is. For a typical ranch or bungalow in 53142, metal roof replacement starts around $9 per square foot, standing seam runs about $10 per square foot, and a retrofit over existing shingles starts at $7 per square foot. Smaller repairs like leak fixes or flashing work start at $450, and screw replacement or re-fastening starts at $750. We always give you a free estimate with a clear breakdown, so call (414) 219-0818 to get started.
