Roof Repair Naperville

In many cases, yes. If you just need new flashing then there’s no sense in ripping off the entire roof. If a few shingles have been blown off in a storm, we can replace those shingles without much trouble. The best way to get the full life span out of your roof is to get regular roof inspections so you catch problems while they’re still cheap and easy to fix. 

The three most common reasons for roof repairs around Naperville, IL are (1) leaks, (2) storm damage, and (3) subpar workmanship. Roofs are being exposed to the elements every day, and eventually, that takes a toll. Heat, rain, wind, cold, ice, and snow are very damaging to a roof system.  If your roof is leaking, it’s time for a repair. By the time a leak is noticed, it’s likely already caused a lot of damage internally. That’s why it’s important to identify roof leaks early and make repairs immediately once they have been discovered.

It depends on the size of the problem, the extent of the problem, the size of the roof, and how far the damage has progressed. A typical roof repair costs anywhere from $400 to $3,000+ depending on the scope of work. The lower end covers a simple repair such as replacing a couple of blown-off shingles, a single pipe boot, etc. The higher end of the pricing spectrum would be for something more in-depth, such as replacing a whole roof slope, flashings, or damaged decking (plywood). If it costs much more than about $3,000, we’ll usually recommend a roof replacement, which often is less expensive in the long run.  Keep in mind that no roof lasts forever, and so it’s a question of when (not if) you need to replace it, and how much you save on repairs by doing it sooner rather than later. 

Roof repairs include fixing leaks, swapping out shingles, replacing flashing, and fixing ventilation and insulation issues.  Although asphalt shingles are the most common type of roofing, we also handle repairs on cedar shake, synthetic slate, clay and concrete tile, and metal roofs.
