Roofing Services in Lombard, IL
Postwar residential tracts with a walkable older core and a strong commercial corridor.
What we find on Lombard roofs
Lombard is a settled DuPage village built mostly between the 1920s and the 1970s, with an older walkable core near the Metra station and larger postwar tracts spreading out from it. The village also carries a substantial commercial corridor along Butterfield and Roosevelt Roads, which adds a steady base of low-slope work alongside the residential.
The core neighborhoods carry 1920s and 1930s bungalows, foursquares and Colonial Revivals with moderately steep roofs and dormers. Postwar development brought ranches, Cape Cods, split-levels and Georgians through the 1950s and 1960s, which make up the bulk of the housing. Split-level roof-to-wall transitions and Cape Cod knee-wall ventilation are the two recurring technical issues on this stock. Later construction and infill added two-stories with more complex forms, and there is meaningful townhome and condominium development near the commercial corridors, generally handled through associations.
Lombard weather & roofing challenges
Standard DuPage exposure - recurring severe thunderstorm complexes with straight-line wind and periodic hail, and full winter freeze-thaw cycling. The older, less-ventilated stock in the core neighborhoods sees the most ice damming, and the mature trees in those same neighborhoods keep valleys and gutters loaded through fall.
Commercial roofing in Lombard

Lombard roofing FAQs
More questions are answered on the FAQ page.
Do you serve all of Lombard?
Yes. We work throughout Lombard and the surrounding DuPage County communities, on both residential and commercial property. If you are near the edge of the city limits and are not sure whether we cover your address, contact us and we will tell you plainly.
Do you repair storm damage?
Yes. We offer storm damage inspections, emergency tarping, and permanent restoration following hail, windstorms and ice events. We document conditions with photographs and measurements, which is what you need for your records whether or not you file an insurance claim.
How quickly can someone inspect my roof?
Active leaks and storm damage are scheduled ahead of routine work. Non-urgent inspections are typically scheduled within a few business days, though that stretches after a widespread hail or wind event when demand across the area spikes at once.
When should a roof be replaced?
Asphalt shingle roofs generally last 15 to 25 years in Chicago-area conditions. If your roof is in that age bracket, requires continuous repairs, or shows widespread degradation - curling across whole slopes, large areas of granule loss, leaks appearing in new places each season - full replacement is usually more cost-effective than continuing to repair. Isolated failures on an otherwise sound roof are repairs regardless of age.
How much does roof repair cost?
It depends on the size of the affected area, the roof pitch, access, and whether the decking underneath is sound. Replacing a single pipe boot is a very different job from rebuilding chimney flashing. We provide a complimentary on-site estimate with the full scope priced before any work begins.
