Roofing in Colfax, WI
Nearly fourteen percent of Colfax housing is manufactured, the highest share of any place we serve, and that housing is not covered by the Uniform Dwelling Code. A manufactured home is built to the federal HUD standard, and its roof assembly, fastening and edge detail follow the manufacturer rather than SPS 321. We quote those jobs on their own terms and we say when a repair is the right answer.
The rest of the village is old and rented. Median year built is 1959, 53.8 percent of the 673 units predate 1960, and owner occupancy is 44.6 percent, among the lowest we record outside a university town. Only 46.8 percent of the stock is single-family detached. That mix produces a lot of split-responsibility roofs.
Colfax and Boyceville share a building inspector. The state's delegated-authority list of August 2026 names the same private inspection agency, at the same phone number, for both villages, twelve miles apart in a county that holds no delegation of its own. One person, two jurisdictions, and a schedule you should ask about before booking a tear-off.
Dunn County is genuinely absent from the list of thirteen Wisconsin counties with delegated Uniform Dwelling Code authority, and every one of its thirty municipalities took the delegation instead. There is no county building department here to escalate to. Your village clerk and that contract inspector are the whole chain.
The design snow load in Zone 1 is 40 pounds per square foot, ten more than the Trempealeau County towns south of here, and it applies to anything framed new in Colfax. On an existing 1950s roof that number is a reference point rather than a rule, because SPS 320.05 (1) exempts pre-code dwellings and their alterations.
Hail here has been large. On 25 May 2008 at 5:50 in the afternoon hail measuring 2.75 inches fell on the village. On 15 May 2025 a 74 mph gust was recorded. Nearby, an EF1 tornado struck Rusk on 27 June 2014 with 1.2 million dollars of damage and another EF1 hit the same area on 9 May 2022.
The Colfax Railroad Museum and the Red Cedar River through the village mark a valley town, and 7.8 percent of homes here run on bottled LP, which puts an exterior tank and an appliance flue in the picture. Flue flashing on a 1958 board deck is the leak we find most often, and it is not a reason to replace a roof.

What we take on in Colfax
Eau Claire Roof Pros covers the same range of work in Colfax that we do in Eau Claire — nothing is carved out because the address is a few miles up the road:
- Storm Damage Restoration — Storm work here has a scheduling problem nobody warns you about. The severe season runs May through August, the moisture season runs December through March, and the two produce ceiling stains that look identical from the floor of your living room.
- Tile Roofing — There is not much tile in Eau Claire, and the little that exists is usually on a church, an institutional building, or a house whose original owner brought the idea from somewhere warmer. We maintain what is here and we are careful about adding more.
- Wind Damage Roofing — Wind damage in this valley is mostly an edge problem. Field shingles rarely start a failure on their own.
- Residential Roof Installation — This page is about new decks. A house being framed, an addition or dormer, a garage or accessory unit, or a roof opened to bare wood because the sheathing itself is being replaced.
- Commercial Roof Installation — Commercial work in Eau Claire runs from Water Street storefronts to the industrial park, and the frame on this site is more relevant to those buildings than to houses, not less. Commercial interiors are wetter, and the vapor pressure pushing up into a cold deck is correspondingly higher.
- Roof Replacement — Before we price a tear-off in Eau Claire, we ask whether your ceiling has ever stained in late February or March. If it has, the roof may not be the thing that needs replacing, and we will tell you so before we write a number down.

About Colfax, WI — and why local matters here
Colfax sits in Dunn County with a population of roughly 1,182, close enough to Eau Claire that crews move between the two constantly. Local landmarks and corridors residents know well include the Colfax Railroad Museum, the Red Cedar River through the village.
Local knowledge is not a marketing line here. Colfax properties share soil, weather, permit rules and construction eras with the rest of Dunn County, and a roofing contractor who works the area weekly already knows what fails locally and what holds up. That is the difference between a bid and an accurate bid.
