Winthrop Harbor Roofing Services
From quick fixes to major projects, Winthrop Harbor Roofing & Maintenance has been the roofing contractor Winthrop Harbor homeowners call for 23 years. Here's a rundown of what we offer.
Roof Replacement
Your roof replacement includes a full-system install: ice and water shield at eaves, valleys, and penetrations; synthetic underlayment across the entire deck; aluminum drip edge at rake and eave; starter strip with sealant; architectural shingles with 130+ mph wind rating; and continuous ridge vent for proper attic ventilation. We also install new pipe boots and vent flashing on every penetration.

We repair asphalt shingle, metal, flat membrane, and tile roofs. Our trucks carry common repair materials so most fixes happen same-visit. Shingle repairs, flashing replacement, pipe boot swaps, ridge cap fixes, valley re-flashing. All routine for our Winthrop Harbor crews.

Not all storm damage qualifies for a full replacement. Hail might only damage one slope. Wind might only lift shingles on the windward side. We document exactly what's damaged and let the insurance company make the call. Honest documentation gets claims approved. Inflated claims get denied.

Proper ventilation is the most overlooked element in new roof installation. We calculate intake and exhaust per IRC R806 based on attic square footage. Balanced ventilation. Soffit intake matched to ridge exhaust. Keeps your attic cooler in summer and drier in winter. That extends roof life and cuts your energy bill.

Color options in metal roofing are virtually unlimited. Matte black, charcoal, forest green, copper penny, barn red, slate blue. We order custom colors from Sheffield Metals and McElroy Metal with 40-year fade warranties. Your house, your style.

The difference between a cheap shingle roof and a quality one comes down to the system underneath. Shingles are only the outer layer. Ice and water shield in the valleys, synthetic underlayment across the deck, proper starter strip with factory adhesive, correct nailing pattern. That's what makes a shingle roof last in Illinois's weather.

EPDM (rubber roofing) has a 50+ year track record as a flat roofing membrane. We install fully adhered EPDM with taped or glued seams over polyiso insulation. It's a great option for Winthrop Harbor building owners who want proven performance at a lower cost than TPO or PVC.

Multi-family properties in Winthrop Harbor need roofing contractors who understand occupied buildings. We schedule around tenants, contain debris, and minimize noise during reasonable hours. Emergency leak repairs get priority. Water in someone's apartment is an emergency.

We hang gutters with hidden hangers screwed into the rafter tails or fascia board every 24 inches max. No spike-and-ferrule, no exposed hardware. Proper pitch is 1/4" per 10 feet toward each downspout. Too flat and water sits. Too steep and it looks wrong.

Commercial and flat roof inspections include infrared moisture scanning with Flir E8 thermal cameras. Trapped moisture in the insulation layer shows as temperature differentials on the thermal image. No need to cut core samples everywhere. We identify wet zones, then core sample the suspect areas to confirm. This approach gives you a precise repair scope at a fraction of the cost of exploratory tear-offs.

When a tree goes through your roof at 2 AM, you need someone who answers the phone and shows up with a truck full of materials. Call (877) 349-1553. We handle roofing emergencies in Winthrop Harbor 7 days a week, including holidays.
Get a Free Quote →Skylight Installation
We install three types of skylights: fixed (sealed, just for light), vented (opens for airflow. Great for bathrooms and kitchens), and tubular (flexible tube through the attic. For tight spaces where a standard skylight won't fit). Each serves a different purpose.
