What Are New Richmond Homes and Roofs Like?
New Richmond's older homes are mostly frame houses built or rebuilt after the 1899 tornado, in Queen Anne, Italianate, Colonial Revival and Craftsman styles, with newer subdivisions and twin homes growing around them.
The city grew around a sawmill on the Willow River, and the 1899 tornado leveled much of it, so the West Side and East Side historic districts are full of houses from the rebuilding years. Houses in those styles tend to have gables, porches and dormers, so on a tear-off we check the decking and the flashing and trim at every valley and wall.
Newer neighborhoods such as Meadow Crossing, Rich River Trails, Fox Run, Francois Fields and Woodland Creek have younger homes, including twin homes at Meadow Crossing.
Older New Richmond houses
More valleys, more flashing
Gables, dormers and porch roofs on the city's older houses mean more places where flashing has to be checked when the roof is redone.
Who Issues Roof Permits in New Richmond?
Roof permits in New Richmond come from the city's Building Inspections Department, which lists its contacts on the city's building and zoning page.
The city's reachable pages do not say whether a like-for-like reroof needs a permit, so we confirm the permit rules with the city's building inspectors before work starts. Structural work, such as replacing rotted decking or framing after a storm, is the kind of job we check on first.
Homes outside the city limits fall under the surrounding towns, which have their own inspectors, so check that your house is inside the City of New Richmond and not just in the 54017 ZIP code.
Does Reroofing in New Richmond's West Side Historic District Need Design Review?
It can: the city applies design standards in the West Side Historic District, the area bounded by the Willow River, Minnesota Avenue, West Second Street and South Washington Avenue, so a reroof there may need design review before work starts.
The East Side Historic District is on the National Register, but the city has not adopted it as a local historic district, so it has no city design standards. If your house is on the West Side, we check with the city before you choose a roofing material or color, and we plan the roof to keep the house's lines and trim.
Some newer subdivisions have their own rules too. Meadow Crossing has a homeowners association with an architecture committee, so ask your association about roofing colors and materials before you sign for a new roof.

What Should New Richmond Homeowners Do After Hail?
Hail up to golf-ball size fell in New Richmond along Highway 65 in June 2025, and any roof in that part of the city that has not been inspected since should be checked for cracked or bruised shingles and dented metal.
Hail that size can crack asphalt shingles, strip their granules and dent gutters, vents and metal roofing, and the damage often cannot be seen from the ground. Wind in the same storms can lift shingles, tear soffit and fascia loose and drop branches on the roof.
Take photos of the damage and call your insurer if you plan to file a claim. If a roofer you did not call knocks on your door after a storm, Wisconsin law gives you the right to cancel a contract tied to an insurance claim until the third business day after your insurer tells you in writing that the claim was denied in whole or in part.

The city's reachable pages do not say whether a like-for-like reroof needs a permit, so we confirm with New Richmond's Building Inspections Department before work starts.

Yes, we install metal roofing in New Richmond; on a West Side Historic District house we check with the city about design standards first.
