Leaking Roof

A leak doesn't always mean you need a new roof. Water can enter through flashing, seams, penetrations, or damaged materials. The key is finding the actual source before deciding what to fix. A leak doesn't always mean a new roof. We find the actual source before deciding what to fix.

Chicago Roofing Questions

How much does roof replacement cost in Chicago?

Roof replacements start at $12,850. Your price depends on the size and pitch of the roof, the system you choose and what we find underneath. You get a written scope and price before any work starts.

Do you work on both shingle and flat roofs?

Yes. We install architectural shingle roofs on pitched homes, and modified bitumen and TPO flat roofs on two flats, condo buildings and commercial buildings.

Should I repair or replace my roof?

If the roof is healthy and the problem is in one spot, a repair usually makes sense. If it's near the end of its life or you're patching it every year, replacing it is the better investment. We'll show you photos and tell you which we'd do.

Which areas do you serve?

We roof homes and buildings in Chicago neighborhoods like Lincoln Park, Lakeview, Bucktown and Logan Square, plus Evanston, Wilmette, Winnetka, Glenview, Park Ridge and the rest of the North Shore.

How do I get started?

Call Dad at (312) 300-7888 or fill out the form, and we'll set up a time to look at your roof. Not sure what's wrong? Start with a Dad Check, from $295. The fee comes off your project if you hire Dad.
