What affects the price

Several things change the final bill when you replace a roof. The total area of your home is the biggest factor, followed by the specific materials you choose, like asphalt shingles versus metal or tile. We also look at the pitch or slope of your roof and how many layers of old material need to be pulled off before we start. If there is hidden wood rot or damaged decking underneath, that adds to the labor and supplies required.

What does 'bone dry roofing' mean for a Chicago installation?
Is EPDM roofing a good choice for Chicago's flat roofs?

EPDM roofing is a highly viable and often excellent choice for flat or low-slope roofs commonly found on Chicago buildings. Its single-ply membrane construction offers superior waterproofing, UV resistance, and flexibility, making it well-suited to handle the thermal expansion and contraction caused by Chicago's temperature fluctuations. The specialists can advise on the best application methods for EPDM in your specific situation.

What are the benefits of metal roofing near me in Chicago?

Metal roofing offers numerous benefits for homeowners in Chicago, including exceptional durability, longevity, and resistance to fire and extreme weather events. Materials like standing seam metal can handle Chicago's heavy snow loads and high winds effectively. Furthermore, metal roofs are often more energy-efficient than traditional asphalt shingles, potentially reducing cooling costs during the summer.
