Lisa A.

I wish all customer service was as good as the guys that work in the roofing department at HEP. They were polite, easy to talk to, very knowledgeable of my roof problem, explained everything that was wrong and what needed to be done immediately and in the near future. You guys are super!

Ruben was excellent when I was having drain issues. He was quick, explained everything throughly, and made sure I knew what my options were. A wonderful experience I just put an offer in on a home and wanted someone to check the place out for me and HEP was there! Not only was every technician that came out friendly, but they made sure I understood everything that was being told to me! They gave me clear and honest opinions about my AC, Roof, and electrical. They told me what was wrong, how to fix it, an approximate on how much it would be and even advice to make sure I get the most out of my repair life. I'm a first time home buyer and they made me feel confident enough about the condition of my home to be able to make a sound decision on it. I'll recommend them to everyone I know!

Jason did an awesome job on my roof. He was very knowledgeable about his profession and was very courteous and well mannered.

Olin was fantastic. Friendly and arrived early after calling to say he would be coming out earlier than planned. I will leave another review after the work is done but we are looking forward to working with your company to get our roof taken care of. Thank you.

Jason Shoupe did my roof inspection this morning. He was on time, professional and took his time to explain his findings. I like that he was able to prioritize how he would fix things so that I wasn’t overwhelmed. He took pictures so that I could see what repairs were needed.

Lee came out promptly when they promised and perform a thorough inspection and pointed several areas that we needed to watch and gave a great estimate on several repair options.

We (Leroy and Helen Queen, my parents) had our leaky roof replaced by HEP at the end of July 2019. We had a wonderful experience from start to finish: from Joshua who recommended HEP for our roofing needs, to Jason our Sales Rep who measured and then inspected the finished work, to Chris in the office who helped us with the financing, to the crew of men that came out and did a marvelous job removing, installing, and then tidying up afterwards. We were mightily impressed; they worked so quickly. We highly recommend giving HEP a call for your roofing needs based on our own experience with them. They all worked really hard and quickly to get us a new roof; something we very greatly appreciate. Thanks HEP!

Tosha M.

Great installers and great visual inspection they took care of us. Thank you

Genia S.

Spoke with Jason and was very happy. This was an estimate for roofing repairs, Jason was very polite and professional. He took the time to point out any issues he found and had a valid explanation for each concern. Jason answered all my questions and I feel he was honest and didn't sugar coat or inflate any concern. We have used Hep in the past for plumbing and was happy with that too. We have another estimate to get but its going to be hard to be the confidence I feel in Jason after our talk. We had some interior ceiling repair also by Tom and Jimmy, excellent job. Impressed with the texture matching.

FAQs

What roofing materials are best suited for Belvidere’s climate?

Belvidere experiences hot, humid summers, heavy spring rains, and freezing, snowy winters, so durability and weather-resistance are critical. Asphalt architectural shingles remain the most popular because they withstand temperature swings, shed snow easily, and offer good wind ratings at an economical price. Metal roofing—especially standing-seam steel—has become a close second; it resists hail, sheds ice, and reflects summer heat, providing a 40–70-year life span. For historic homes, composite slate or synthetic shake can deliver the classic look without the weight and maintenance of natural materials. Our estimators will review your budget, aesthetic goals, and neighborhood covenants to recommend the best option.

How long does a typical roof replacement take in Belvidere?

For an average 2,000–3,000 sq ft single-family home, complete tear-off and replacement generally takes 1–3 working days, depending on material type and weather. Asphalt shingle projects usually finish in two days, while metal or designer shingle systems can take three due to extra flashing and trim work. We schedule jobs to avoid forecasted storms and always finish the job site cleanup the same day the roof is completed, so disruption to your household is minimal.

Do I need a permit for roof replacement or major repairs in Belvidere?

Yes. The City of Belvidere and Boone County require a building permit for any roof replacement or structural repair. Our company pulls the permit on your behalf, arranges required inspections, and ensures your new roof meets the 2021 International Residential Code and local wind-uplift requirements. Permit fees are included in our proposal, so there are no surprise costs.

How can I tell if my roof needs repair or full replacement?

Warning signs include curled or missing shingles, granules in gutters, soft spots in decking, interior ceiling stains, or daylight showing through the attic boards. If the roof is over 20 years old, widespread issues often make replacement more cost-effective than continual patching. During a free inspection, we photograph problem areas, measure shingle life remaining, check ventilation, and provide side-by-side repair vs. replacement costs so you can make an informed decision.

Does homeowners insurance cover storm damage to my roof?

Most policies in Illinois cover sudden, accidental damage caused by hail, high winds, or fallen limbs. Normal wear and tear, however, is excluded. After a storm, contact us for a no-obligation inspection; if damage is present, we document it with photos and a detailed report you can send to your insurer. We also meet with the adjuster on-site to ensure all valid damage is noted, helping maximize your claim and reduce out-of-pocket expenses.

Why choose a local Belvidere roofing contractor instead of an out-of-town company?

Local contractors understand Belvidere’s weather patterns, permit process, and HOA guidelines, allowing faster, smoother projects. We’re accountable—our office and crews live here, so we’ll be around long after storm-chasers leave town. We use suppliers in Rockford and Boone County, shortening material lead times, and we back every job with a transferable lifetime workmanship warranty you can easily access if you ever need service.
