"I personally sought out L.I.C. General roofing solutions after seeing his work the previous year in my neighborhood and neighbors giving great verbal reviews regarding roofing done after last year’s storms. Israel communicated well regarding work to be done and estimate prior to hire .The crew was well mannered and ensured decent clean up during the process of tearing off and replacing my roof so we could enter/leave my home as needed. Hardest working crew I have ever seen!! They stayed extremely long hours over 2 days due to a shift in Mother Natures forecast , completing my three tiers of roofing over 3000 ft sq house and 3 car garage - WOW! Israel personally checked in with me several times during the process and again the day after completing the roof — terrific customer service !! The day after completion Mother Nature delivered her forecaster rain for 2 days then snow with no issues with my new roofing . Thanks ? Israel ….. I look forward to working with you again !"

"A new to us home had severe mold overtake our basement when
the humidity soared while we we on vacation.  We really had a situation.
We looked up Custom Craft on Angie's List.  We called left a message and Rich called right back.
He came out and gave us a analysis and quote within 1 day.  We were reluctant to trust a contractor based on 
a recent bad experience. We decided to proceed with Custom Craft - we really needed to act fast.
My trust was well placed.  They came out and put a mind boggling amout of equipment
in our home to make it safe to live in.  They ripped out everything infected, dry wall, remodeling lumber, insulation, 
which was several days for the crew.  The sorted our personal items and saved many of them.  They
then cleaned and disinfected our basement.
This was an unpleasant project and a lot of work.  
They got it done to make our home safe and protected our home investment.
Rich gave us free follow-up advice.
These guys did a great job for us.
Also - I recommend a good 60-100 pint dehumidifier in your basement.
If your basement was sheet rocked in the 70-80's,
you may want to  explore whats behind the drywall.
Basements require special remodeling practices and
they did not do it right back them.

"Mat did a wonderful job at laying out the system and installing it according to his design. He was on time and on budget.We had bids from another installer and Mat was right there on price and actually included a few things that were not on the other bid. I would not hesitate to have him do more work for me as he is as honest and sincere as they come. Glenn Griswold"

"From start to finish the entire crew led by Brian were amazing!  They were prompt and worked all day and cleaned up after themselves.  They took the time to educate us on what was being done.  I loved their friendly attitude and could not be happier.  Brian even replaced my old bird feeder and put up a bird house for me even though it was not in the contract!  Now talk about Midwest hospitality.  I would highly recommend Hip and Ridge Construction for any future projects!  Todd kept every promise and then some!  We live in Los Angeles and have our vacation home is located up in North Western Wisconsin.  I was blown away with the service and how fast everything got done.  I also know they did an exceptional job because a visiting friend in the same business stated so!  Todd the owner even checked up on us several times just to make sure we were enjoying our vacation and if we needed anything at all!  Talk about A+ service!  They offered us financing and made the entire process easy! We were hesitant about hiring someone to replace our roof and Todd made the process a confident decision!  
I also loved how personable he and his crew were.  They are truly a top notch construction crew and I would also like to add I know a thing or two about customer service!  I have served in Law Enforcement for over 20 years now and I appreciate the honesty and transparency the entire staff provided.  
Thank you Hip and Ridge for your amazing job well done!  WE LOVE our new roof!  We also felt as though we made new friends which is rare in this industry!  

Thank you,
Anne Marie and Robert Reading!"

FAQs for natural slate roofing installation and replacement projects in Viola, WI

A slate roof features thin tiles of natural stone installed over a solid deck and underlayment. Formed under intense heat and pressure, slate is exceptionally durable and delivers a distinctive, high-end look. Because the material weighs far more than asphalt, most homes need added structural support before installation. 

While upfront costs are higher and routine inspections are a must, many homeowners choose slate for its unmatched longevity and curb appeal.

Slate stands out for its 50- to 200-year life span, low maintenance, and classic aesthetic. It’s fire-resistant, energy-efficient, and often boosts resale value. 

On the flip side, slate runs far more per square foot than asphalt, weighs up to four times as much, and demands a contractor who specializes in the material. Tiles can crack on impact, and repairs cost more because the work is slow and precise. If your budget and structure can handle it, slate delivers top-tier performance for generations.

Natural and synthetic slate aim for a premium, stone-like appearance, whereas asphalt focuses on affordability. Real slate runs $10 to $30 per square foot installed and lasts up to 200 years; synthetic slate costs $10 to $15 and tops out at 50 to 100 years. 

Standard asphalt averages $3 to $8 per square foot and needs replacement every 20 to 30 years. If you want the slate look without the full price tag—or extra roof weight—synthetic is a solid middle ground.

With routine inspections and prompt repairs, a natural slate roof can last well beyond 100 years; some hard-slate installations reach the 200-year mark. Soft slate falls in the 50- to 125-year range, and synthetic products last 50 to 100 years. 

Remember, flashing, fasteners, and the underlying structure may need attention sooner than the stone itself. Severe hail or fallen limbs can also shorten life span, so schedule periodic checkups with a slate-qualified roofer.

If you plan to stay in your home long term—or want a standout selling point—slate delivers strong value. Although installation costs are high, owners often recoup 60% to 70% at resale and enjoy lower replacement cycles than asphalt. The stone’s durability, energy efficiency, and timeless curb appeal also appeal to eco-conscious buyers because fewer roofs end up in landfills. Just be sure your framing can handle the weight and that you budget for occasional specialty repairs.

Skip the DIY climb if you have a slate roof. Slate may be tough against the weather, but a single misplaced step can crack a tile and create a leak path. The surface also turns slick when wet, upping the risk of injury. Professional crews use staging and hook ladders that spread weight across multiple slates, protecting both the roof and the worker. To inspect or repair slate, call a roofer who specializes in the material.
