Roofing Services in Great Lakes, IL
Our service list isn't complicated: we fix roofs, replace roofs, and install new ones. We also handle gutters, metal systems, and flat roofing for commercial buildings across Great Lakes.
Roof Replacement
GAF Timberline HDZ with the full GAF Roof System qualifies your home for the Golden Pledge warranty. That's 25 years on workmanship and 50 years on materials, including algae protection. We install Cobra Snow Country ridge vent with external baffle, FeltBuster synthetic underlayment meeting ASTM D226 Type II equivalent, and Starter Match Pro starter strip. Every component is GAF-approved and inspection-documented.

Roof Repair
Missing shingles from wind damage expose the underlayment to UV degradation. If the underlayment is compromised, water intrusion follows the next rain. We don't just replace the missing shingle. We pull back surrounding courses, inspect the underlayment for UV damage and nail holes, replace compromised sections, and weave new CertainTeed Landmark or IKO Cambridge shingles into the existing field. Proper repair, not a patch.

Storm Damage Repair
Storm damage is time-sensitive. Most insurance policies in Illinois require claims within 12 months. We do a free inspection, document every damaged area with photos and measurements, and help you file the claim. If the adjuster approves it, we handle the repairs at the insurance-approved price.

New Roof Installation
New construction means we get to do everything right from scratch. No compromises, no working around someone else's mistakes. Ice and water shield where it belongs, properly lapped underlayment, correct nailing patterns, and ventilation sized to the space. That's a roof that lasts.

Metal Roofing
Standing seam metal with Kynar 500 PVDF fluoropolymer finish. The gold standard for color retention and chalk resistance. We install Sheffield Metals and McElroy Metal panels in 24-gauge Galvalume steel. UL 2218 Class 4 impact resistance (qualifies for insurance discounts in most Illinois markets). UL 790 Class A fire rating. Wind uplift rated to 140+ mph per ASTM E1592 testing. Concealed Z-clips allow thermal expansion without stress on fasteners. That's what makes standing seam leak-proof.

Shingle Roofing
Asphalt shingles cover more homes in America than every other roofing material combined. There's a reason. They're affordable, they look good, they last 25-50 years depending on the grade, and they come in dozens of colors and profiles. Our Great Lakes crews have installed thousands of shingle roofs and we know the product better than most roofers in the state.

Flat Roofing
Modified bitumen is the best choice for residential flat roofs and low-traffic commercial applications in Great Lakes. We torch-apply SBS-modified base and cap sheets in a two-ply system. Granulated cap sheet handles foot traffic and UV exposure. 15-20 year warranty.

Commercial Roofing
Need a commercial roof coating? Silicone coatings over existing TPO, EPDM, or metal extend life 10-15 years for a third of replacement cost. Not every roof qualifies. The existing membrane needs to be in decent shape. We core sample and moisture scan to verify before we recommend it.

Gutter Installation
Clogged gutters cause fascia rot, soffit damage, and foundation erosion from concentrated water runoff. That's not a marketing scare tactic. We see the damage on every other gutter replacement in Great Lakes. Properly sized gutters with adequate downspout capacity move water away from the house. We calculate capacity using rainfall intensity data for Great Lakes: roof area x pitch factor x rainfall rate in inches per hour. Standard 5" K-style handles 5,520 square feet of effective roof area.

Emergency Roof Repair
Emergency tarping is step one. Stop the water. We secure heavy-duty poly tarps over the damaged area using 2x4 nailer boards attached to the deck. Once the immediate threat is contained, we schedule the permanent repair within 48-72 hours.

Skylight installation includes cutting the roof opening, framing a curb with doubled 2x lumber, installing the unit with factory sealant, and weaving the step flashing into the surrounding shingle courses. Interior work includes drywall framing and trim. We handle the full job in Great Lakes. Outside and inside.
