Certified, licensed, and insured. We restore roofs across Chicago with honest pricing and craftsmanship that lasts.
Roofing contractor Chicago IL services cover everything from leak repair to full roof replacement. We handle residential roofing and commercial roofing, including tear-off and overlay work. When we replace a roof, we strip the old shingles, inspect the decking for rot or decay, and install new underlayment, flashing, and shingles. A typical tear-off takes one to two days. We use ring-shank nails and staggered courses to hold shingles flat against wind. We also install gutters, fix storm damage, and perform emergency repairs when hail or wind strikes.
Storm damage in Chicago is common. Hail from spring thunderstorms can cause granule loss, blistering, and splits. Heavy lake-effect snow in winter can create ice dams that wick water under shingles. We respond fast, document damage for insurance claims, and get your roof sealed before water seeps deeper.
Our crew has served neighborhoods like Lincoln Park, Wicker Park, Hyde Park, Logan Square, and Bronzeville since 2012. We know Chicago's building stock—older homes with wood decks, newer builds with OSB, flat roofs on commercial buildings. That knowledge lets us spot problems before they spread.
Call for a Free EstimateRoof repair works when damage is localized—a few missing shingles, a small leak around a vent, or a damaged flashing boot. We can mend that in a day, often for under $800. Roof replacement becomes necessary when shingles are at end-of-life wear, widespread cracking exists, or the decking has started to sag or settle. If water has wicked along the roof deck and caused rot, repair won't hold. We'll show you photos and explain why.
Our process starts with a free inspection. We check the roof surface, flashing, gutters, and attic for signs of moisture. We measure the square footage (one square equals 100 square feet) and assess the substrate. Then we give a written estimate with material options and a timeline. If you need a new roof, we handle the tear-off, inspect the deck, install self-adhered ice and water shield at eaves and valleys, and lay starter course and field course shingles with proper lap. We back-nail where needed and hand-seal exposed fasteners.
We also offer recover or overlay when the existing roof is still sound—adding a new layer of shingles without a full tear-off. That saves money but only works on certain roofs. We'll be honest about whether it's right for you.
Get Your Roof AssessedEvery job follows the same steps. First, we inspect and photograph the roof. Second, we provide a detailed quote—no pressure, no vague line items. Third, we schedule and protect your property with tarps and magnetic nail sweepers. Fourth, we perform the work: tear-off, deck repair if needed, underlayment, flashing, shingles, ridge vents, and gutters if included. Fifth, we walk the site, remove debris, and do a final inspection with you.
We use GAF and Owens Corning materials, and we're certified by both. That means our work carries a manufacturer warranty, not just our own. We also carry liability insurance and workers' comp. You'll see our license number on the contract and on our trucks.
One thing we've learned over the years: the unexpected happens. On a 1960s ranch in Hyde Park, we found the decking had rotted under a previous overlay. We had to replace three sheets of plywood before we could lay shingles. That job taught us to always check the decking before quoting a recover. We include that inspection in every estimate, so you won't get a surprise bill later.
Schedule Your Free InspectionRoof replacement costs $8,000 to $18,000 for a typical 2,000-square-foot home, depending on materials and pitch. We give free, itemized estimates.
Look for missing shingles, granule loss in gutters, dents on vents, or curling edges. Hail damage often leaves bruise-like marks on asphalt shingles. We offer free inspections.
Yes. We document damage with photos, help you file the claim, and work with your adjuster. We don't inflate estimates, but we make sure every legitimate repair is included.
Architectural asphalt shingles are the most popular for their cost and durability. Metal roofing lasts longer and handles snow better. We also install TPO and EPDM for flat roofs.
Most residential roofs take 2 to 3 days. Commercial flat roofs may take longer. Weather can delay work, but we keep you updated daily.
Yes. We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on all installations, plus manufacturer warranties up to 50 years on materials. We stand behind every roof we install.
