NEW Roof Installation Times

“How long will it take to install my new roof?” As a Chicago roofing contractor with decades of combined experience, we’ve been asked this question at least a thousand times and every single time we give the very same answer – it depends. Honestly, we’re not being smug. Your new roof installation will depend on a variety of factors and until they’re known it would be irresponsible of us to give any other answer. One simple rule of thumb: the larger and more complex the roof, the longer it will take.

For those with simple roofs – where the layout includes no irregularities or added complexity – we can usually complete the project in a single day. That’s assuming that the weather cooperates and no access problems are encountered. So, a good answer to “how long will it take to install my new roof?” is a minimum of one day. However, that doesn’t really answer the question, does it? So, let’s start with a one-day project for simple roofing and extend that out for roofs that are larger and more complicated.

There are a great many factors that can play into the time it takes top complete your new roof installation. In Chicago, these include:

• Roof Size
• Roof Complexity
• Weather Patterns
• Access Problems
• Material Delivery
• Structural Damage
• Insurance Claims

Factors such as the size of the roof, its level of complexity (including any obstacles), and the choice of materials can be used as indicators to estimate the cost of your roof. These same factors can also be considered in determining the duration of the project. For instance, a straightforward roof installation can be completed in a day under favorable weather conditions, while a more intricate project might span up to three days. If the project exceeds this timeframe, it could indicate issues with your roofing contractor. Ideally, any roofing job should be finished within a week, barring any weather-related delays.
