About Witt's Handyman - General Contractor | Roofing | Painting | Hampton, IA

Witt's Handyman - General Contractor | Roofing | Painting knows Hampton's rooflines as well as anyone in Franklin County, and that knowledge carries straight into winter — a heavy snow load sits differently on an older roof than a new one, and ice builds fastest along a valley or a low pitch this crew has already worked on from the other side of the ladder. Clearing snow off a roof edge or breaking ice loose along a gutter line is a different kind of careful than a driveway, done against a sky that's usually still gray and low after a storm has passed through town. The same eye for a building's shape that goes into a roofing job carries over here, knowing which eaves need attention before a thaw turns a rooftop's load into water finding its way inside. Down at ground level, walkways and drives around these same buildings get cleared before anyone has to test the ice underfoot. Hampton's older buildings, brick and frame both, get through another winter with a little less strain because somebody looked at the whole structure, roofline down to the front step.
