Metal Roofing

Metal Roofing

Durable metal systems standing up to Chicago's toughest weather.

More Chicago homeowners are choosing metal roofs for their exceptional longevity and weather resistance. Our installations range from traditional standing seam on Arlington Heights ranches to modern stone-coated systems complementing Naperville's upscale homes.

We address common Midwest concerns head-on:
- Special snow retention systems prevent dangerous sliding
- Expansion joints accommodate Chicago's temperature swings
- Heavy-gauge materials resist dents from hail
- Kynar coatings prevent fading from summer UV exposure
For commercial properties, we install mechanically seamed roofs rated for downtown's wind tunnel effects. Historic districts like Evanston appreciate our ability to mimic original metal profiles while meeting modern energy standards.

Every installation includes a custom maintenance plan to keep your metal roof performing beautifully for decades.

Frequently Asked Questions

How noisy are metal roofs during Chicago rainstorms?

With proper underlayment and attic insulation, our installations are no louder than traditional roofs - Aurora customers report no noticeable difference.

Can you install metal roofing over my existing shingles?

In Schaumburg's drier climate, we often recommend tear-offs first to inspect decking, but some overlay installations are possible.

What's the best metal roof for historic Evanston homes?

We frequently use copper or copper-clad standing seam that develops a beautiful patina while protecting the home.
