Protect and Enhance Your Home with Asphalt Shingles

Sep 04, 2025

Living in Wisconsin means facing a wide range of weather conditions — from snowy winters to humid summers and everything in between. That’s why choosing the right roofing material is one of the most important decisions a homeowner can make.

“At J & B Construction, we’ve seen firsthand how asphalt shingles provide long-lasting protection and beauty at an affordable price,” said Scott Cline, co-owner of J & B Construction. “They’re versatile, durable, and designed to give homeowners peace of mind.”

Benefits of Asphalt Shingles

“Asphalt shingles offer a balance of performance, cost, and style that’s hard to beat,” Scott said. “They’re designed to protect your home while enhancing curb appeal — all without breaking the budget.”

Some of the top benefits include:

Affordable and Cost-Effective

Asphalt shingles are one of the most budget-friendly roofing options, making them an excellent choice for families in southeastern Wisconsin who want strong protection without a hefty price tag.

Durable in Wisconsin Weather

From high winds and heavy snowfall to summer storms, today’s shingles are manufactured to withstand the elements. Many options carry Class A fire ratings and can resist winds up to 130 mph — perfect for Wisconsin’s unpredictable climate.

Variety of Styles and Colors

Whether you prefer the classic look of traditional three-tab shingles or the dimensional style of architectural shingles, asphalt roofing comes in a wide array of colors and textures to complement any home design.

Energy Efficiency

Specially designed “cool roof” shingles can reflect sunlight, helping keep your home cooler in summer and lowering energy costs.

Easy Maintenance and Repairs

If a section of shingles becomes damaged, repairs are simple. Individual shingles can be replaced without needing to redo the entire roof.

Added Value and Curb Appeal

A new asphalt shingle roof not only protects your home but also boosts its overall appearance and resale value.

Where Asphalt Shingles Work Best

“Asphalt shingles are versatile and work well on just about any residential roof,” Scott explained. “Whether you have a simple gable roof or a more complex design with multiple slopes, shingles adapt easily.” They’re especially well-suited for:

Residential homes seeking reliable, long-term protection.
Older Wisconsin homes where a lightweight roofing material helps reduce structural stress.
Homeowners planning to sell who want to enhance curb appeal without major expense.

The only complaint I have is when I have J&B do my roof in another 30 years or so, is Dave their sales man (a great guy) would not guaranty I could get the same great crew I had this time. They did a fantastic job. Much better than the last roofing company did. A nice bunch of guys. Did a very nice job cleaning up. I'd give them 10 stars but 5 is the limit. If you need a roof done this is the company you want to do it. One more point I need to make. The guys that did the chimney flashing are artists. I went up on the roof when they were done and was very pleased with not only the roofing job but the sculptured sheet metal work. It's kind of a shame it's on the roof and not hanging on the family room wall :). You get the point. Hire em. You'll like em.

We live in a historic designated neighborhood and recently had our 30 year wood shingle roof replaced with another wood roof and new gutters. From Day 1 of the project to the final day, the entire team was responsive, professional, and very competent. When some minor changes were proposed by us they quickly and effortlessly complied. After going through this experience with J&B, I would highly recommend them to anyone considering a roof and gutter replacement, whether it be a simple or complicated project.

J & B did an amazing job from start to finish. The initial meeting at my home took place exactly at the time that was agreed upon and Scott was thorough in his explanations and transparent about costs. When the time came to begin the project, the team that showed up was friendly, professional and timely in getting the project done. The cleanup afterward was such that it looked like they hadn't been there at all. The roof looks great, there were no surprises and Scott came by to inspect the work and explain the warranty upon job completion. I would highly recommend them.

My neighbor had their roof replaced and I was really impressed with the speed, carefulness and quality of the work I saw. Asked her for her experience and she told me she would highly recommend J & B. I called Scott to set an appointment. He showed up on time and was very thorough in his assessment, also letting me know about some other issues and advise on where to get help. J & B is a fantastic company to deal with - their people are incredibly careful about the work they do, clean up and leave the property in the same condition as when they started, were careful about plants and the house, and work very efficiently. The office staff is great about following up, checking in and very responsive to anything that comes up. I was happy with the price charged. If you are looking to replace your roof, you should be calling J & B to get the job done.

We had work done by the J&B team at a commercial property and were very pleased with the whole process. Their estimator met us onsite and communicated with us every step of the way. They went over the scope in detail and the work performed exceeded what we were expecting. They found some additional concerns during the installation that were quickly addressed and communicated to us and to our surprise, there was not an additional charge. Our tenants reached out to share how respectful the employees were during the installation and how clean everything was left afterwards. As the project was wrapped up, we were walked through the completion paperwork and provided the warranty information. Very impressed with the professionalism of this company and would not hesitate to refer their services or use them again in the future.
