Most roof leaks in Braidwood come from one of five places: pipe boots, step flashing at walls, valley flashing, damaged shingles, or failed seals around skylights. We find the actual source. Not just the drip point in your ceiling. And fix it right. Water travels along rafters and sheathing before it drips, so the leak location and the damage location are often 10 feet apart.

HAAG Certified Inspectors on staff for every storm damage assessment. We document per HAAG residential guidelines: hail hit density per test square, severity classification, functional vs. cosmetic damage distinction. Insurance adjusters trust HAAG methodology because it's the industry standard. Our supplementation process references FM 4473 hail ratings and manufacturer impact resistance specs when fighting for full replacement approval.

We install new roofs on new homes, additions, detached garages, carports, and covered patios. Material options include asphalt architectural shingles, metal standing seam, metal corrugated, and flat membrane systems. We help you choose based on your budget, aesthetic preference, and the specific demands of your Braidwood climate.

Metal roofing reflects solar heat instead of absorbing it. In Illinois, that means 15-25% lower cooling costs compared to dark asphalt shingles. The higher upfront cost pays for itself over the life of the roof. And the life of a metal roof is twice or three times longer than shingles.

Shingle color matters more than you think. Dark shingles absorb heat. Great for cold Illinois winters, harder on cooling bills in summer. Lighter colors reflect heat. Algae-resistant granules prevent black streaking. We bring shingle samples to your Braidwood home so you can see them against your siding and trim.

Modified bitumen is the best choice for residential flat roofs and low-traffic commercial applications in Braidwood. We torch-apply SBS-modified base and cap sheets in a two-ply system. Granulated cap sheet handles foot traffic and UV exposure. 15-20 year warranty.

For commercial kitchens and restaurants in Braidwood, PVC membrane is the only option that resists animal fat and chemical exposure from rooftop grease exhaust. We install IB Roof Systems and Duro-Last PVC with heat-welded seams and custom accessories. Modified bitumen with SBS or APP polymer-modified asphalt for high-traffic commercial roofs. Two-ply systems with 20-year NDL (No Dollar Limit) warranties from Johns Manville or Firestone.

Clogged gutters cause fascia rot, soffit damage, and foundation erosion from concentrated water runoff. That's not a marketing scare tactic. We see the damage on every other gutter replacement in Braidwood. Properly sized gutters with adequate downspout capacity move water away from the house. We calculate capacity using rainfall intensity data for Braidwood: roof area x pitch factor x rainfall rate in inches per hour. Standard 5" K-style handles 5,520 square feet of effective roof area.
