Wisconsin, with Milwaukee as its major metro, experiences a humid continental climate featuring cold, snowy winters and warm, humid summers. These distinct seasons place considerable stress on roofing systems throughout the year.
In Wisconsin, roofing must withstand heavy snow loads and ice dams in the winter, along with the heat and humidity of summer. Single-ply membranes, such as TPO and EPDM, are a practical choice for the low-slope and flat roofs common on many commercial buildings and some residential properties in the Milwaukee area. Their seamless application provides a robust, watertight barrier essential for managing meltwater and heavy rainfall. Proper installation, including adequate insulation and effective drainage systems, is critical to prevent leaks and ensure the longevity of the roofing system against Wisconsin's challenging climate.
