About Roof Repair
Roof repair in Orland Park, Tinley Park, Oak Lawn, and throughout the south suburbs starts with finding the actual problem -not just patching visible symptoms. We've fixed thousands of roofs since 2004, and most leaks originate nowhere near where water shows up inside your home.
Water travels. It enters at a failed flashing around your chimney, runs along a rafter for six feet, then drips through your ceiling at the other end of the room. That's why we trace leaks back to their source before touching a shingle.
Common Roof Repairs We Handle:
Missing or Damaged Shingles: Wind lifts shingles at their edges. Once the seal breaks, the shingle flaps in subsequent storms until it tears off entirely. We replace individual shingles when possible, or patch sections when damage is concentrated.
Flashing Failures: Flashing seals the joints where your roof meets vertical surfaces -chimneys, dormers, skylights, vents, and walls. Original flashing often uses galvanized steel that rusts through after 15-20 years. We replace failed flashing with aluminum or copper that outlasts the roof itself.
Vent Pipe Boot Leaks: The rubber boots around plumbing vent pipes degrade in UV sunlight. By year 12-15, they crack and leak. This is the most common single-point leak we fix. A simple repair that prevents ceiling damage.
Valley Leaks: Valleys concentrate water flow and catch debris. Improperly installed valleys leak within a few years. We repair or re-flash valleys using closed-cut or woven methods depending on shingle type.
Ice Dam Damage: Lake-effect snow, freeze-thaw cycles, and inadequate attic insulation create ice dams every winter. We repair shingles damaged by ice backup, but we also discuss ventilation improvements that prevent future damage.
Our Repair Process:
1. Inspection: We get on your roof (or send a drone for steep pitches) and photograph problem areas. We check the attic for water staining, rot, or mold.
2. Diagnosis: We explain exactly what failed and why. Sometimes a $300 repair solves the problem. Sometimes a 15-year-old roof with widespread granule loss needs replacement rather than patching.
3. Written Estimate: You receive line-item pricing before we start work. No verbal quotes.
4. Repair: For active leaks, we can often complete repairs same-day. For scheduled repairs, we typically arrive within 48 hours of approval.
5. Documentation: You receive before and after photos. If you file an insurance claim later, you have records.
When to Repair vs. Replace:
Repairs make sense when damage is localized, the roof is less than 15 years old, and underlying materials (decking, underlayment) remain sound. We'll recommend replacement when repair costs exceed 30% of replacement cost, when damage is widespread, or when repairs won't reliably prevent future leaks.
We repair roofs throughout Cook County (Palos Heights, Palos Hills, Oak Forest, Homewood, Flossmoor), Will County (Frankfort, Mokena, New Lenox, Joliet, Lockport), and DuPage County (Naperville, Downers Grove, Westmont, Hinsdale).
