Complete Roof Replacement
Your roof is one of your home's most important investments. Serving Northern Illinois since 1996, our family can help you plan a durable roof that protects your home for decades to come.
An aging or severely damaged roof puts everything you own at risk. If your roof is over 20 years old, has widespread shingle damage, multiple leaks, or visible sagging, it's time to consider replacement. Continuing to patch an old roof is like putting bandaids on a serious wound – you're just delaying the inevitable while risking water damage, mold, and structural problems. A new roof not only protects your home but also improves energy efficiency, increases property value, and gives you peace of mind for the next 20-30 years.

How long does a roof replacement take?
Most residential roof replacements are completed in 1-3 days, depending on the size and complexity of the roof. Weather can affect timing.
Do I need to be home during the replacement?
You don't need to be home during the work, though it helps to have someone available for the initial walkthrough and final walkthrough. Just know it will be noisy, and you'll want to secure pets indoors during the work.
What's the difference between 25-year and 50-year shingles?
Higher warranty shingles are typically thicker, more durable, and have better wind/algae resistance. 50-year shingles (like Owens Corning Duration or GAF Timberline HDZ) offer stronger protection and often better aesthetics with dimensional styling. The upgrade usually adds $1,500-$3,000 to project cost but provides longer-lasting protection.
Can I put a new roof over my existing shingles?
While it's sometimes allowed by code, we don't recommend it. A proper tear-off allows the roof deck to be inspected and repaired, ensures proper ventilation, and prevents premature failure. Most manufacturer warranties also require complete tear-off. We believe in doing it right, not just doing it cheap.
What warranty comes with a new roof?
Shingles and most roofing materials carry a manufacturer warranty, typically 25-50 years depending on the product selected. Ask us about the warranty terms for the specific materials on your estimate.
