Caledonia is a Racine County village in Wisconsin, north of Racine's Root River mouth. It was a town until January 2006, when a 2005 referendum made it a village after the legislature granted an exemption. The village's roof permit rules were not in the sources, so ask the village office first. Calls to (833) 751-2102 are answered 24/7.
Caledonia is a village north of the Root River mouth in Racine. It was a town until January 2006. The Potawatomi were first in the area, and a trading post stood about 1832 where the Caledonia-Mt. Pleasant Memorial Park is now.
The village has one of Wisconsin's earliest Bohemian communities, with a cemetery and an 1888 schoolhouse that is now a museum. Franksville, a residential community inside the village, was platted in 1873 on about twenty-five acres. The history is rich, but the sources give no building or roof record for the village.

A full written inspection before a re-roof, since the sources give no housing ages.
Gutters and downspouts that move water away from the foundation near the Root River.
Masonry chimneys on older village houses are a common place for a leak to start.
Attic ventilation is checked during any re-roof of an older house.
Lake-effect snow and ice dams from November to March, then spring and summer wind lines, decide which roof problems turn up along the Kenosha lakeshore from week to week.
Water moves through the village along the Root River, so gutter discharge and drainage near the foundation matter as much as the shingles. The sources give no flood or roof-damage record for the river, so this page does not state one.
When a technician inspects a Caledonia roof, the gutters and downspouts are checked along with the flashing, since water that runs off the roof has to go somewhere.
Caledonia is a village now, after its years as a town, so the village building department handles permits. The rules for roof work are not in the sources used here, and the sources do not say whether the village has different rules for older buildings. Ask before a tear-off or new decking is scheduled.
Franksville was platted in 1873, so some of the older houses inside the village may have older framing and decking. The sources give no housing-age figure for Caledonia, so the age of any roof is found by inspection.
When a technician looks at an older roof, the decking and the attic ventilation are the first things to check.

Yes. Franksville is a residential community inside the village, platted in 1873 on about twenty-five acres. Permit questions for roof work there go to the village office.
The sources do not give the village's permit rules. Ask the village building office whether a repair or a tear-off needs a permit, and whether decking replacement is included.
Call (833) 751-2102. A technician can inspect the roof and explain what the village office needs for a permit, if the work requires one.
