FAQs
What roofing materials are best suited for Andersonville’s weather?
Andersonville experiences heavy lake-effect snowfall, spring thunderstorms, and hot, humid summers. Because of these extremes we generally recommend architectural asphalt shingles or standing-seam metal roofing. Architectural shingles resist 130 mph winds, shed snow well, and carry 30- to 50-year warranties. Metal roofs outperform shingles in ice, hail, and UV exposure, lasting 50+ years with minimal upkeep. We also install synthetic slate or cedar shake on historic homes to preserve neighborhood aesthetics while improving durability.
How long does a typical roof replacement take for an Andersonville home?
For an average 2,000 sq ft bungalow or two-flat, tear-off and replacement usually take 1–2 days in good weather. Larger Victorians or multi-family buildings can take 3–4 days. We handle permitting with the Chicago Department of Buildings in advance, arrange dumpsters for debris removal, and perform a full magnetic sweep of your property at the end of each workday to keep walkways safe.
Do you provide free inspections and written estimates?
Yes. One of our licensed roofing specialists will visit your home, photograph all problem areas, measure your roof with drones or hand tools, and explain the options on site. Within 24 hours you’ll receive a detailed digital proposal showing material choices, labor breakdown, timeline, and warranty information. There is no obligation and no hidden fee for the inspection.
What warning signs indicate I need roof repair or replacement?
Common red flags include shingles curling or missing after Lake Michigan wind gusts, granules accumulating in gutters, water stains on interior ceilings or plaster walls, ice dams forming along the eaves, and mold or musty odors in the attic. If your roof is 20+ years old—even if it looks fine—an annual inspection is wise, because small leaks can develop under Illinois’s freeze-thaw cycles.
Can you help with storm damage and insurance claims?
Absolutely. After severe hail or wind events, we offer 24/7 emergency tarping to prevent further damage. Our team documents all impact with photos, drone imaging, and moisture readings, then meets your adjuster on site to ensure nothing is missed. We provide itemized Xactimate estimates in the format insurers require and can often bill your carrier directly once the claim is approved.
What warranties and maintenance services do you offer?
All full replacements include a 10-year workmanship warranty backed by manufacturer certification (GAF Master Elite and CertainTeed ShingleMaster). Material warranties range from 30 years to lifetime depending on the product. To keep your roof performing, we offer annual maintenance packages that include gutter cleaning, flashing reseal, and attic ventilation checks—services especially valuable in Andersonville where lake-effect moisture can accelerate wear.
