Improper step flashing is the leading cause of roof leaks at wall-to-roof transitions. Step flashing needs to be woven between shingle courses with each piece extending 4" above the shingle exposure. We see Elmwood Park homes where the last roofer used continuous L-flashing or just caulked the gap. That always fails. We tear it out and install proper step flashing with a kick-out diverter at the bottom per IRC R905.2.8.3.

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.

New construction roofing in Elmwood Park starts with getting the design details right before materials arrive. Roof pitch, attic ventilation needs, snow load requirements, and local code amendments all affect material selection and installation methods. We coordinate with your general contractor or architect to ensure the roof system matches the building specifications.

Corrugated metal and R-panel (exposed fastener) at $5-$8/sq ft installed for agricultural buildings, shops, carports, and covered patios in Elmwood Park. 29-gauge is budget, 26-gauge is standard. For residential, we recommend 24-gauge standing seam at $12-$22/sq ft. The aesthetics and longevity justify the premium. DaVinci composite shake and slate profiles offer the look of natural materials with metal's performance. Perfect for Elmwood Park HOA neighborhoods that restrict metal roofing appearance.

Asphalt shingles cover more homes in America than every other roofing material combined. There's a reason. They're affordable, they look good, they last 25-50 years depending on the grade, and they come in dozens of colors and profiles. Our Elmwood Park crews have installed thousands of shingle roofs and we know the product better than most roofers in the state.

Flat roof leak detection in Elmwood Park: we start with a visual inspection of seams, flashings, and penetrations. If the leak source isn't obvious, we use electronic leak detection (ELD) or flood testing on membrane roofs. We find it and fix it. No guessing, no unnecessary tear-offs.

Commercial roofing in Elmwood Park means flat and low-slope systems: TPO, EPDM, PVC, modified bitumen, and built-up roofing. We install and repair all of them. Retail, warehouse, office, restaurant, multi-family. Our commercial crew handles buildings from 2,000 to 100,000 square feet.

Gutter sizing matters more than most homeowners realize. We calculate the effective roof area, local rainfall intensity, and the number of downspout outlets needed to handle peak flow. Undersized gutters overflow. Undersized downspouts back up. We size everything to handle Elmwood Park's worst rain.

We don't inspect roofs from the ground with binoculars. We get on the roof. Every inspection includes a full walkthrough: shingle condition, flashing integrity, pipe boots, ridge vent, soffit ventilation, gutter function, and visible attic moisture signs. You get photos and a written report.

Skylights done right bring natural light into spaces that need it most. Bathrooms, hallways, closets, kitchens with limited windows. We install VELUX and Fakro units with manufacturer flashing kits that integrate with your existing shingle field. Proper flashing is everything. Bad skylight installs are a leading cause of roof leaks.
