Water stain on the ceiling? The leak started weeks ago.

You see a brown circle on the ceiling after a heavy rain. That means water got past the roof, soaked through the decking and sat there long enough to stain drywall.

The longer it sits, the worse it gets. Wet decking rots. Wet insulation loses its R-value. In a Chicago winter, trapped moisture freezes, expands and cracks the wood around it.

Wait through storm season and a small leak turns into a section of decking that needs replacing. That is a bigger job and a bigger bill.

A roof leak usually comes from one spot

Cracked flashing around a chimney. A pipe boot with a split rubber collar. Missing shingles from a wind storm. A nail that backed out. These are repairs, not replacements.

The problem is knowing which one. Some roofing contractors in Chicago quote a full replacement without climbing up. Others give a price over the phone without seeing the roof.

We do it the other way. For roof repair Chicago homeowners can trust, we climb up, check the whole roof, take photos and show you exactly what failed. If a repair fixes it, we price the repair. If the damage is too far gone, we tell you and give you a replacement price too. Roof replacement

Roof repair questions

How much does roof repair cost in Chicago?

It depends on what failed and how much area is affected. A pipe boot replacement is a different price than a valley reflash. We check the roof for free, show you what we find, and give you the price before any work starts.

Can you fix a roof leak in the rain?

We can do a temporary patch to stop active water entry. The full repair happens when the roof is dry enough to work safely.

My roof was damaged in a storm. What do I do?

Call us for a free roof check. We document the damage with photos and a written report you can share with your insurer.

How do I know if I need a repair or a full replacement?

We check the whole roof, not just the leak. If the rest of the roof is in good shape, a repair is the right call. If the shingles are worn across the board or the decking is soft in multiple spots, replacement saves money long term. We give you both prices and explain the difference.

Do you repair flat roofs?

Yes. TPO, EPDM rubber and modified bitumen. See flat roof repair. Flat roof repair

Do you come to my neighborhood?

We work across the City of Chicago.
