What affects the price

Replacing your roof involves several variables that shift your final bill. The total square footage of your property is the biggest factor, followed closely by the pitch or steepness of your roof, which dictates how safely crews can work. You will also need to choose your materials—architectural shingles, metal, or tile each carry different price points. We also have to account for the removal and disposal of your current roof, plus the condition of the underlying wood decking that might need repairs once the old shingles are off. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

A steel roof is a high-durability option designed to last much longer than traditional asphalt shingles. These systems are highly resistant to wind and hail, making them a smart long-term investment for many homeowners. If you are tired of replacing shingles every time there is a storm or if you want to lower your home's energy absorption, steel is a strong candidate. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

Many homeowners prefer fall for roofing because the temperatures are moderate and the weather patterns are usually more stable than in spring. This makes it a great time to seal up your home before the winter snow or freezing rain arrives. It allows us to work at a steady pace, ensuring every shingle is placed perfectly before the climate turns harsh.

Frequently asked in Chicago

What are the benefits of corrugated metal roofing in Chicago?
When should I consider using roof sealant on my Chicago home?

Roof sealant can extend the life of your existing roof in Chicago. It's often used to patch small leaks or reinforce vulnerable seams. However, for older or significantly damaged roofs, replacement is usually more cost-effective. A sealant won't fix underlying structural problems. Let us assess your roof and advise on the best solution.

How much do roof installers cost in Chicago, IL?
What are the main advantages of metal roofing for Chicago properties?

Metal roofing offers significant advantages for Chicago homes. Its exceptional durability means it can withstand harsh weather, including Chicago's heavy snow and strong winds.

Is EPDM roofing suitable for Chicago's climate?

EPDM roofing is a synthetic rubber membrane commonly used for flat or low-slope roofs. While it offers good waterproofing, it may not be the most aesthetically pleasing or durable option for Chicago's varied weather extremes compared to metal. Metal roofs generally provide better protection against hail and snow accumulation. We specialize in metal installations across Chicago.

What are the pros and cons of rubber roofing in Chicago?

Rubber roofing, like EPDM, is effective for waterproofing low-slope roofs in Chicago. It's relatively affordable and easy to install. However, it can be susceptible to punctures from hail or falling debris, which are concerns in our area. Metal roofing generally offers superior impact resistance and a longer lifespan. Call us to explore your best options.
