About Us
Weather Tight Is Now Employee Owned!
Weather Tight has setup an ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Plan).
Todd and Tod, aren’t handing off the reigns completely and sailing away into retirement tomorrow (or any time soon), however. One of the great benefits of Weather Tight becoming an employee-owned company is it still allows Todd and Tod to lead and oversee the company for years to come. It simply ensures that when the time comes for them to slowly pass the torch and enjoy those retirement years, the great company culture of Weather Tight will stay safely in place, providing excellent customer service for years to come.
Weather Tight is the leading exterior home remodeler in Southeastern Wisconsin for a number of reasons, but the most important one—to our customers and us—is service. The experience can’t be matched and is always improving. We founded the company with a focus on replacement window installation and quickly grew to include baths, doors, roofing, siding, gutters, and gutter protection. From the start, people appreciated our honesty and professionalism, and knew they could count on us to go the extra mile—that’s why we’re still going strong, more than three decades and over 34,000 satisfied customers later.

The Story Behind Weather Tight
Tod Colbert, president of Weather Tight, started the business in 1986, after the window company he was working for closed. Tod took his passion for exterior remodeling and desire to own his own business, and started Weather Tight. What began as a one-man operation steadily grew into the area’s best team with a reputation of being fair and reliable.
Todd Schulz joined the company in 1990. At the time, he was a leading sales manager in the industry and soon became vice president of Weather Tight. Tod and Todd gained valuable leads at home improvement shows, but it was their ability to wow customers every day that gave them the edge. Before long, Tod and Todd were recognized as the state’s leading exterior remodeling team—and as the faces of Weather Tight.
Customers began to recognize the dynamic duo from their ads and felt comfortable with them—they were just regular guys who truly enjoyed educating and helping homeowners. Talking to Tod and Todd is like talking to a neighbor, except these neighbors care about protecting your home as much as you do. And with a name like Weather Tight, you know exactly what to expect with every installation.
Today, Weather Tight is over 100 employees strong, with a beautiful showroom where you can see and compare all your home improvement options. Tod and Todd invite you to stop by to discuss your design ideas or just take a walk through our Idea Center and see what’s new in the world of remodeling.
