About Us
Simple Contracting. Simply Great Results.
How Badgerland Was Born
Owner AJ Stoffels spent his early years working all across the U.S. building roofs. But in 2009 things began to change. He saw common gaps between what customers were saying they wanted, and what roofing companies were delivering on a national scale. He decided then and there to be a force for positive change. Badgerland Exteriors was created in Sauk City, and has been serving customers faithfully for over a decade.
Core Values to Live By
At Badgerland, we don’t just list our values for show. We demonstrate them through our actions, each and every day. We believe that treating others with respect and delivering outstanding results is the bare minimum, and around here? We like to go above and beyond. Want to know what to expect when you hire us? Here’s what we focus on.
Integrity
We're up front and sell products that were confident in and would install on our own homes. We say what we do, and do what we say.
Always Growing
Our main drive in business is to constantly improve to better serve our clients.
Working Together
Teamwork in our company is crucial for us to maintain a satisfied client base.
Loyalty
Our loyalty to our customers and community are a cornerstone to our success.
We Work Hard
Consistency in our day to day operations are a must for us to survive. Strong work ethic will set us apart from our competitors.
Why Choose Us?
Homeowners across America have similar complaints when it comes to working with roofing contractors: poor communication, unfair pricing, and shoddy results that don’t last. We do things differently by taking the roof replacement process from stressful to peaceful. You can count on us to do exactly what we promise to do, whether that be showing up promptly or sticking to our upfront estimate.

Yesterday was a great day for the CAI-WI Golf Outing.
AJ, Brent, Aaron, and Tyler spent the day connecting with community managers, board members, and industry professionals who support condo and homeowner associations throughout Wisconsin. (And Kat managed the table at our sponsored hole!)
As our work with associations continues to grow, we appreciate opportunities like this to stay involved, build relationships, and better understand the needs of the communities we serve.
Thanks to @caisocial - Wisconsin hosting a great event.
We’re continuing our Insurance Jargon series with depreciation.
Let’s say your roof was installed in 2016. Ten years later, it’s not worth the same amount it was when it was brand new. Normal wear and tear reduces its value over time. Insurance companies call that depreciation.
Depending on your policy, depreciation may affect your claim. That’s why you’ll often hear the terms depreciation, ACV, and RCV come up after storm damage. (Stay tuned for those ACV and RCV definitions coming up soon.)
Even if you’ve been through the process before, insurance can get complicated.
Understanding the terminology is a good place to start.
We’ll help you understand what to do next and stay with you throughout the claim.
We’ve spent years sharing finished projects, educational posts, and job site photos.
Now it’s time to bring you behind the scenes.
View From the Top is a new docuseries following the Badgerland Exteriors & Solar team through a season of growth, storm response, roofing projects, insurance conversations, and everything else that comes with running a roofing and solar company in Wisconsin.
Part educational and part entertaining, we’re excited to give you a look inside the Badgerland world.
Episode 1, Expansion, is available now on YouTube.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, AJ! 🎉
Send some love to this million dollar man today. 🎂
Wishing you a peaceful and relaxing day — you deserve it!
There are pros and cons to your wife who is obsessed with you running social media. 📸😆
Sun Prairie got a little more solar-powered this week.
This system was designed to help offset future energy costs while putting a sunny roof to work.
Every home is different, which is why we start with the roof, the electric bills, and the homeowner’s goals before making recommendations.
Questions about solar? We’re happy to talk it through.
We’re continuing our Insurance Jargon series with deductible.
A deductible is the portion of a covered insurance claim that you pay before insurance helps cover the rest.
Depending on your policy, that may be a fixed dollar amount or a percentage of your home’s insured value.
Even if you’ve been through the process before, insurance can get complicated.
We may be the roofing people, but insurance is part of the process. We help you understand what to do next and stay with you throughout the claim.
“It was a huge surprise and relief.”
Before this project, these homeowners had never navigated a hail claim of this size. One of the biggest surprises was learning they didn’t have to manage it alone.
From working directly with insurance to answering questions along the way, Rebecca said the working with Aaron and the Badgerland Exteriors team felt easy, friendly, and that our team was always available when they needed guidance.
That’s exactly the experience we’re hoping to create.
