What Are Woodville Homes and Roofs Like?
Woodville homes sit in a village that was first settled in 1870 and grew up around the railroad and logging, and where a house in the village is old, the roof on it is rarely the first one.
The village later became one of the leading manufacturing communities in St. Croix County, and it still carries its Norwegian heritage. Because an old house may carry more than one layer of roofing, when we tear off an old roof there we look at the boards underneath before anything new goes on.
Wisconsin allows a new roof over one existing layer at most, and it has to come off if there are already two layers or the old roof is soaked or worn out. On an older Woodville house that usually means a full tear-off, which is when soft decking, rusted flashing and blocked attic vents show up and can be fixed.

Do You Need to Call the Woodville Building Inspector Before a New Roof?
Yes, the Village of Woodville asks homeowners to contact its building inspector before replacing a roof, and it names roof replacement in its building permit information alongside fences, additions and siding.
The village contracts its building inspection out rather than running its own department, and the inspector issues any permit the job needs. We make that call before work starts on a Woodville roof, so the permit question is settled before the old shingles come off.
If the tear-off turns up rotted decking or framing that needs structural repair, that work goes through the same inspector, and we sort it out with the village as part of the job.

What Should Woodville Homeowners Do After a Storm?
The most recent storm recorded near Woodville was a small tornado that touched down just east-southeast of the village in August 2024 and broke trees, and after a storm like that the first step is to look for lifted shingles and fallen limbs before the next rain finds a gap.
Wind gets under shingle edges and breaks the seal strips that hold them flat, and a loose shingle can leak long before it blows off. Hail does a different kind of harm: it knocks the granules off asphalt shingles and can bruise or crack them, which shortens the roof's life even when nothing drips yet. Look for shingles or limbs in the yard, granules in the gutters and dents in vents and gutters, then call us to inspect the roof.
If you file an insurance claim, take photos before anything is moved. In Wisconsin, a contractor must ask whether the work is tied to an insurance claim before you sign, and you can cancel that contract until the third business day after your insurer tells you in writing that the claim was denied in whole or in part.

What Roofing Work Does Hudson Roofing Pros Do in Woodville?
Hudson Roofing Pros does roof repairs and full replacements in Woodville, with the same crew from first inspection to final cleanup and Garrett Olson overseeing every project.
When an old Woodville roof comes off and the boards underneath are soft or delaminated, we do roof decking replacement before the new underlayment goes down. Older houses with brick chimneys often leak where the chimney meets the roof, and chimney flashing repair stops that water without replacing the whole roof.
Poor attic airflow can buckle shingles and help ice dams form, so we also check and fix roof ventilation, balancing intake at the eaves with exhaust near the ridge. Woodville is one of the towns we cover east of Hudson along I-94.

Woodville Roofing FAQs
Do I Need a Permit to Replace My Roof in Woodville?
You need to contact the village's building inspector before replacing a roof in Woodville, and the inspector tells you whether a permit is needed for your job. We make that call before work starts.
Can a New Roof Go Over My Old Shingles in Woodville?
Only if there is a single layer now and it is sound, because Wisconsin allows no more than two layers and requires a tear-off when the old roof is soaked or worn out. On older Woodville houses we usually recommend a tear-off so the decking can be checked.
Why Does My Woodville Chimney Leak?
A leak beside a chimney usually starts at the flashing where the chimney meets the roof, and Wisconsin requires chimneys to be flashed and counter-flashed there. We reseal or replace the flashing and counter-flashing to stop the water.
