Roofing in Hines, IL

Serving Hines and Surrounding Areas

Chicago homeowners face a unique set of roofing challenges driven by the city’s climate and aging housing stock. Here are the most common issues we see—and how we fix them.

**Ice dams** – After a heavy snow, melting water refreezes at the eaves, creating a dam that backs up under shingles. We solve this with proper attic ventilation and ice-and-water shield installed at the eaves.

**Leaks around chimneys and vents** – Old, cracked flashing lets water in. We replace flashing with custom-formed metal pieces and seal them with high-grade caulk.

**Missing or curled shingles** – Wind and age cause shingles to lift or break. We replace damaged shingles and can recommend a full replacement if more than 30% of the roof is affected.

**Hail damage** – Hailstones leave dents and granule loss that weaken shingles. We inspect for hidden damage and help you file an insurance claim.

**Ponding water on flat roofs** – Poor drainage leads to standing water that degrades membranes. We install tapered insulation or add drains to get water moving.

**Sagging roof deck** – Old, rotted decking from years of leaks. We replace the decking and reinforce the structure before installing new roofing.

**Moss and algae growth** – In shady, damp areas, moss traps moisture. We clean the roof and install zinc strips to prevent regrowth.

**Storm damage** – High winds can lift shingles or tear off entire sections. We provide emergency tarping and complete storm repair.

Each problem has a proven fix. We’ll explain your options and give you a clear price before any work begins. Call (312) 313-3253 to schedule an inspection.
