Good looks matter. So does everything underneath.

Residential Roofing for Chicago Homes

Every Chicago home is built a little differently. Residential roofing starts with a look at the whole roof, from the shingles to what’s underneath, before we recommend anything.

Residential Roofing Questions

How much does a new roof cost in Chicago?

It depends on the size and pitch of the roof, the material you pick and what we find under the old layers. A Dad Check gives you photos and a clear price before any work starts.

How long does a roof replacement take?

Most homes take just a few days once work starts. Size and weather can change that, and we'll give you a timeline before we begin.

Do you work on two flats and three flats?

Yes. We work on two flats, three flats and single family homes, including flat and low slope roofs.

Do you offer a warranty?

Yes. Your roof comes with the manufacturer's warranty on materials and our warranty on the work. We go over the details with you before you sign.

Do you handle permits?

Yes. We pull the permits and handle the paperwork, so you don't have to deal with the city.
