Roof repair

In the area, 83.8% of homes in the ZIP code are owner-occupied, so a leak or a few missing shingles is usually your own bill to settle. Roof repair begins with an inspection that finds the source of the damage, followed by a written estimate for the fix. Small repairs done early can keep a spot from turning into a full replacement. Call to book your inspection.

Roof replacement

In ZIP 60163, 97.4% of homes were built before 1980 and the median build year is 1955, so many roofs are on their second or third layer of shingles. Replacement starts with an inspection of the decking, flashing and attic, followed by a written estimate that lists the materials and the scope. With 178 county hail events of one inch or larger since 2015, an aging roof gets tested often. Call to book your inspection and ask for the written estimate.

Emergency roof repair

Cook County logged 131 damaging thunderstorm wind events since 2015, and FEMA's most recent disaster declaration covering the county, for severe storms, tornadoes and straight-line winds, came on September 20, 2024. When wind lifts shingles or a branch opens the roof, emergency repair means tarping the opening and stopping the leak, then documenting the damage for a written estimate on the permanent fix. Calls are answered 24 hours a day. Call as soon as water gets in, and ask for the written estimate once the roof is covered.

The same storm often brings calls for emergency roof repair across this metro too, with the estimate written before the work.
