How We Handle New Roof Construction

Every job starts with a proper inspection. We assess your current structure, look for hidden issues, and make sure your roof has the right foundation before we ever lift a shingle.

From there, we:

• Review your layout and needs

• Recommend system types and material options

• Plan every step for safety and speed

• Install with code-compliant precision

• Clean up thoroughly and walk the final result with you

​

We’ve worked on classic Oak Park homes, modern remodels, and everything in between. No matter the size or style, we build your new roof to match it.

Common Roofing Styles We Install

 

Pitched Shingle Roofs

A go-to for many Oak Park homes. These angled roofs shed water easily, add curb appeal, and support better ventilation. Most are built using asphalt shingles, which come in a variety of finishes and colors. They're cost-effective and durable, and the pitched style adds symmetry to both old and new builds.

​

Flat Roofs

Seen more often in multi-unit buildings and newer home designs, flat roofs give you practical space for solar panels, HVAC units, or even small deck areas. When properly installed, they perform well in all seasons and can be enhanced with energy-efficient membranes or coatings.

 

Custom Sloped or Mixed Rooflines

Not every roof is simple—and that’s fine with us. If your home has intersecting pitches, dormers, or a mix of flat and sloped sections, we design a layout that works visually and structurally. Mixed-material systems? We do that too.

 

Cedar Shake and Synthetic Shakes

For a natural look with insulating benefits, cedar shakes are a classic. If you want the appearance without the upkeep, synthetic shakes mimic that textured wood grain while offering longer lifespan and less maintenance.

 

Eco and Reflective Roofs

Going green? We’ve got reflective roof options and sustainable systems that lower your energy bills and reduce heat absorption. Ideal for homeowners who want to make smart

environmental choices without sacrificing style.

 

 

Roofing Materials That Deliver Over Time

 

Asphalt Shingles

Still the most common roofing material for a reason. Easy to install, versatile in look, and relatively affordable. Asphalt shingles come in different grades—from basic to architectural—and can suit almost any Oak Park home design.

 

Built-Up Roofing (BUR)

Multiple layers of bitumen and reinforcing fabric give BUR systems their strength. Great for flat or low-slope residential roofs that need solid waterproofing and a layered barrier against weather.

 

Cool Roof Coatings

These reflective coatings help cut down on interior heat, especially in attics. Smart for reducing A/C usage during summer months, and they pair well with both sloped and flat roof types.

 

 

EPDM Roofing

A synthetic rubber membrane commonly used on flat homes. EPDM offers strong weather resistance and longevity, with minimal upkeep required. A smart choice for modern builds or multi-unit properties.

 

Fluid-Applied Membranes

Installed as a liquid and cured into a solid waterproof layer, these seamless membranes are great for sealing tricky edges or coating flat roofs that need extra protection from moisture.

 

Metal Roofing

If durability and modern looks are your thing, metal is worth a look. It holds up in all kinds of weather, reflects heat well, and lasts decades with minimal maintenance. Plus, most metal roofs are recyclable—ideal for sustainability-minded homeowners.

 

Modified Bitumen

Used mostly on low-slope residential roofs, modified bitumen is flexible, durable, and built for waterproofing. It’s a practical option for homeowners who need performance and affordability in one system.

 

TPO Roofing

Thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) is a lightweight, UV-resistant membrane ideal for flat or low-slope homes. Its energy-efficient properties make it a strong contender for homes trying to cut down on energy costs.

 

Cedar Shake Roofing

Natural wood roofing that’s both beautiful and functional. Cedar provides excellent insulation but needs regular upkeep to perform its best. We also offer treated cedar options for longer lifespan.

 

Synthetic Roofing

Made to replicate slate, shake, or tile without the weight or upkeep. Synthetic materials are great for homeowners who want premium curb appeal but not the high-maintenance schedule.

 

Slate Roofing

For upscale homes, slate is the ultimate long-term material. It’s natural stone, fireproof, and can last over 100 years. It is heavy and more costly, but its durability and timeless beauty are hard to match.

 

Clay & Concrete Tile Roofing

Seen more often in custom or Mediterranean-style homes, these tiles are strong, fire-resistant, and built for longevity. Heavy? Yes. But when properly installed, they’re as durable as roofing gets.

Cost, Timeline, And Next Steps

We don’t quote until we inspect. Roof size, slope, system type, and access all affect your price. Want something long-lasting like metal or TPO? That changes your cost structure compared to basic shingles.

​
