  • How does Chicago’s freeze-thaw cycle affect my roof?

    Chicago’s frequent temperature swings can cause materials to expand and contract, leading to cracks, leaks, and premature wear. Our roofing systems are built to handle extreme conditions and prevent weather-related damage.








  • What roofing materials are best for homes in Chicago?

    Asphalt shingles and metal roofing are the most popular options in Chicago. Metal roofing resists snow buildup and lasts longer, while high-quality shingles provide affordability and good weather resistance.




  • What is the typical lifespan of a roof in the Chicago area?

    The average lifespan depends on the material used and how well it’s maintained. Asphalt shingle roofs typically last 20–30 years, while metal roofs can last 40–70 years. Chicago’s weather extremes—snow, ice, heat, and wind—can shorten that lifespan if regular maintenance isn’t performed. That’s why we recommend annual inspections and prompt repairs to extend your roof’s durability.




  • What is ice damming and how can I prevent it?

    Ice dams form when snow melts on a warm roof and refreezes at the edges. We help prevent this with proper insulation, ventilation, and high-performance roofing and gutter systems.






  • How long does a roof replacement typically take?

    Most residential roof replacements take 1–3 days, while commercial projects vary based on size and complexity.
