Roof work we take on in Oak Lawn

Much of the village went up in the 1950s. Those roofs are steep, and plenty are on their second layer.

Full tear offs to the deck

A replacement here means the old layers come off down to the roof deck. We check the sheathing against the thickness the Village asks for and swap out anything thin or soft while the roof is open.

Repairs that stay repairs

Any roof repair over 100 square feet is treated as a recover in Oak Lawn, and a recover follows a different set of rules. One square of shingles is 100 square feet, so the line is closer than people think. We tell you which job you are buying before you sign.

Hail season write-ups

HAAG certified inspectors, photographs, and a written report for the insurer. On a disputed claim we work alongside Proliance Public Adjusting.

Step by step on an Oak Lawn roof

01

Free inspection

We get on the roof, photograph it, and hand you a written report. No charge.

02

Quote and permit

You get a fixed price with the $50 permit fee on its own line. We fill in the application and file it.

03

Tear off to the deck

Old layers come off, bad sheathing is replaced, and the ice barrier goes on to the Village figures for your pitch.

04

Inspection and close out

We book the inspector for a Tuesday, Thursday or Friday and close the permit. The paperwork is yours to keep.

We price your pitch, not the minimum

The ice barrier runs to at least 24 inches inside the exterior wall line. On a roof of 8 in 12 or steeper it also has to reach 36 inches up from the eave. Oak Lawn is full of steep 1950s roofs. A bid priced on the flat minimum is short before the crew arrives.

A second layer rules out the cheap option

You cannot recover a roof here that is water soaked, broken down, or already carrying two layers. If a bidder offers to go over your second layer, that work will not pass. We quote what the Village will sign off.

We build the schedule around inspection days

Oak Lawn inspects on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. We set the tear off so your inspection is not left sitting over a weekend, and we file the permit and book the visit ourselves.
