Our Roofing Services | Elmwood, IL
Everything we do is roofing. That focus means our Elmwood crews install more roofs per year than companies that try to do siding, windows, and remodeling on the side.
Roof Replacement
Replacement cost depends on your roof size, pitch, and material choice. We quote by the square (100 sq ft) and itemize everything so you can compare apples to apples. In Elmwood, most residential replacements fall between $8,500 and $24,000. We offer financing if that helps.

Roof Repair
Improper step flashing is the leading cause of roof leaks at wall-to-roof transitions. Step flashing needs to be woven between shingle courses with each piece extending 4" above the shingle exposure. We see Elmwood homes where the last roofer used continuous L-flashing or just caulked the gap. That always fails. We tear it out and install proper step flashing with a kick-out diverter at the bottom per IRC R905.2.8.3.

Storm Damage Repair
After every major storm in Elmwood, out-of-town companies flood the area offering free inspections. They're not all bad, but many are. We're local, we're licensed, and we'll be here to honor the warranty. Storm chasers won't be.

Metal Roofing
Metal roofing works on pitches as low as 3:12 for standing seam and as low as 1:12 with specific underlayment and sealant requirements. Steep pitches look incredible in metal. We help you choose the right panel profile, material, and color for your Elmwood home.

Shingle Roofing
Shingle color matters more than you think. Dark shingles absorb heat. Great for cold Illinois winters, harder on cooling bills in summer. Lighter colors reflect heat. Algae-resistant granules prevent black streaking. We bring shingle samples to your Elmwood home so you can see them against your siding and trim.

Flat Roofing
PVC membrane for Elmwood restaurants, commercial kitchens, and facilities with rooftop grease exhaust or chemical exposure. PVC resists oils and animal fats that destroy TPO and EPDM membranes. We install IB Roof Systems and Duro-Last PVC with factory-fabricated accessories for watertight penetration details. Built-up roofing (BUR) uses 3 or 4 plies of fiberglass felt in hot asphalt with a gravel or cap sheet surface. Oldest proven flat roof system, with 30+ year service life in Illinois. We still install BUR when the application calls for it.

We install Carlisle SynTec and Firestone TPO membrane systems in 60-mil and 80-mil thickness over minimum R-25 polyiso insulation (more in climate zones requiring it). Seams hot-air welded at 900°F+ and tested with a seam probe. Fully adhered systems for wind uplift zones per FM I-90 or I-120. Mechanically attached for re-roofs over existing insulation. NRCA member, trained per manufacturer specifications.

Gutter Installation
We hang gutters with hidden hangers screwed into the rafter tails or fascia board every 24 inches max. No spike-and-ferrule, no exposed hardware. Proper pitch is 1/4" per 10 feet toward each downspout. Too flat and water sits. Too steep and it looks wrong.

Roof Inspection
Annual inspections catch small problems early. A cracked pipe boot is a $150 repair. A year of water leaking through that crack causes $3,000+ in ceiling, insulation, and drywall damage. We recommend an inspection every 2-3 years for newer roofs, annually for roofs over 15 years.
