What We Do
Roofing & Exterior Services in Mount Prospect
Mount Prospect’s older neighborhoods are full of post-war ranches, split-levels, and Cape Cods whose original flashing and shingles are well past their prime. We handle the whole job ourselves — tear-offs, leak repairs, and the custom metal details most contractors farm out — for homes and commercial buildings alike. No subcontract crews. Owner on every project.

Local Context
Built for Mount Prospect Roofs
Mount Prospect was largely built out in the 1950s and ’60s, which means many of its ranches and split-levels are on their second or third roof — and the ones that aren’t are usually overdue. Decades of Chicagoland freeze-thaw, ice dams along the eaves, and aging step flashing around chimneys and dormers are what we see most here. Add the hail and high winds that roll through the Northwest suburbs each year, and a tired roof goes from “fine” to leaking fast. We build for that — including hand-fabricated flashing designed to move water off your roof, not into it.

FAQ
Common Questions
Do you provide roofing estimates in Mount Prospect?
Yes — we provide detailed written estimates throughout Mount Prospect and the surrounding NW suburbs. Our shop is right next door in Arlington Heights, so call (877) 850-5292 or fill out our estimate form and we’ll inspect the roof and attic in person.
My Mount Prospect home is from the 1960s — should I repair or replace?
It depends on what we find. On a roof that age we inspect the decking, flashing, and attic ventilation and tell you honestly whether a targeted repair buys you several more years or whether a full replacement is the smarter spend. No upsells — we’ll give it to you straight.
How do I know if my roof has storm or hail damage?
Look for granules in the gutters, dented or bruised shingles, and missing shingles after high winds. Hail damage isn’t always visible from the ground, so after a major Chicagoland storm we’ll inspect, document everything with photos, and give you the written estimate your insurer needs.
Are you actually local to Mount Prospect?
Yes — our shop is in neighboring Arlington Heights, minutes away, and we’ve served the NW suburbs since 2007. We’re not a storm chaser and not a franchise.
How long does a roof replacement take?
Most Mount Prospect homes are finished in 1–2 days. Larger homes, complex rooflines, or specialty materials like copper or slate may take 3–5 days. You’ll get a specific timeline in your estimate before any work begins.
