A new roof installation is your chance to get everything right from the start. No compromises, no working around someone else's mistakes. Great Lakes Roofing & Maintenance installs new roofing systems on new homes, additions, detached garages, carports, and covered patios throughout Great Lakes.
Material options include architectural asphalt shingles, standing seam metal, corrugated metal, and flat membrane systems. Each has different pros, cons, and price points. We help you choose based on your budget, aesthetic preferences, the pitch of your roof, and the climate demands of IL.
Our New Roof Installation Process
Design Consultation
We review your building plans, discuss material options, and calculate ventilation requirements. Roof pitch, attic space, local code amendments, and your aesthetic preferences all factor into the recommendation.
Material Delivery & Staging
All materials verified against your approved proposal. Color, brand, quantity, everything double-checked before install day. No substitutions without your approval.
Professional Installation
Installation follows IRC building code and manufacturer requirements. Proper overlap, correct fastener patterns, sealed penetrations, and balanced ventilation. Our crews are factory-trained and know the installation manuals by heart.
Inspection & Warranty
We schedule the building inspection and walk the roof with the inspector. Your manufacturer warranty gets registered the same day the roof passes inspection. You receive warranty paperwork within a week.
