Oshkosh Premium Roofing provides professional asphalt shingle roofs in Oshkosh, WI for residential and commercial properties across the Lake Winnebago basin. Nearly every steep roof in this city is asphalt, so the real decision is never the material itself. It is where the extra money goes. Most people here get steered toward a heavier, better-looking shingle, and on a lakeward plane that is simply the wrong place to spend it.
Understand what a shingle roof actually is. It is a water-shedding surface, not a waterproof one, and it works because water runs down it. Every lap in it is open to pressure from below. Buying a thicker mat and a deeper shadow line improves how the roof looks and how it handles impact. It does nothing about water arriving on a wind that has crossed ten miles of open lake.
So on the east and south planes we spend that difference on the water path instead. Self-adhered ice barrier carried up the full run rather than stopped at the code minimum near the eave. A synthetic underlayment lapped and fastened to the manufacturer's own wind schedule beneath it. Reduced shingle exposure wherever the product allows it, which increases headlap and lengthens the distance water has to travel to get behind the course above.
Then the perimeter. Drip edge behind the trough at the eave and over the underlayment at the rake. Hemmed rake metal with a closed end, so the wind finds no open channel to pressurize. Starter strip with its factory adhesive at the edge, rather than a cut-up course laid backwards to save a bundle. Any one of those done wrong will still leak on a house wearing the most expensive shingle in the catalog.
On the north and the west planes we will happily fit the standard laminate and put the whole difference straight back in your pocket. Those planes are not carrying the same load, and pretending otherwise in order to sell a uniform premium package across the whole roof is not honest work.
Three-tab we install only for a matched repair on an existing three-tab roof. As a full roof it belongs to a previous era here: fewer nailing zones, a single seal line, and the first assembly to release after a cold-weather install. If somebody quotes three-tab for a whole house in this market, ask them what they expect it to do in its second February.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — reduced shingle exposure on the lakeward planes, gutter apron tucked behind the trough and over the fascia, self-adhered ice barrier carried the full run of a lakeward slope, step flashing formed with a taller vertical leg than the shingle exposure, two-piece counterflashing bedded in a raked masonry joint, hemmed rake metal with a closed end at the eave return — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Oshkosh and nearby communities including Fond du Lac, North Fond du Lac, Taycheedah, Black Wolf.

Materials, equipment and how we do asphalt shingle roofs
The difference between asphalt shingle roofs that lasts and asphalt shingle roofs that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with reduced shingle exposure on the lakeward planes, gutter apron tucked behind the trough and over the fascia, self-adhered ice barrier carried the full run of a lakeward slope, step flashing formed with a taller vertical leg than the shingle exposure, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Oshkosh job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in the Lake Winnebago basin means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Oshkosh Chooses Oshkosh Premium Roofing
- ✓We ask what direction the wind was blowing when you saw the stain, because on this shore that answer separates a driven-water path from an actual hole faster than an hour on the roof does
- ✓Hose testing is done up the slope and up the wall, never just straight down, since water that entered sideways will not reproduce under a test that respects gravity
- ✓We will quote two planes rather than four when the lakeward side is spent and the street side is not, and we will tell you plainly what a two-plane roof costs you in color match
- ✓Underlayment run and headlap are line items you can compare between bidders, not assumptions folded into a price per square
