A family roofing company serving Buffalo and the rest of Illinois through our network of local crews. Tin roofs, repairs and replacements done right.
From a single lifted panel to a full tear off, we handle every roofing job a Buffalo, IL home is likely to need.
Reflective coatings keep a metal roof cooler in summer and seal up the small stuff before it turns into a leak.
Careful footwork, matched materials, and flashing done the way it was done when the roof went on.
A replacement is a big spend and it should feel orderly. We schedule around dry weather, work in the right order, and never leave a house open overnight.
Repair or replace, we handle both, and we work from what the roof actually needs rather than from what an adjuster might approve.
If two other people have caulked it and it still leaks, call us. Most stubborn leaks turn out to be flashing, a valley, or a fastener nobody thought to check.
Removing the ice is the easy half. We also look at ventilation and insulation so it stops happening every January.
Old skylights leak at the flashing long before the glass ever fails. We reflash, reseal, or set a new unit and tie it in properly.
Lifted panels, missing shingles, flashing that has given up where the chimney comes through. We find what is actually wrong, fix that, and leave the rest of your roof alone.
This is the work our name is attached to. Two decades of tin roofs on houses, churches, barns and additions, installed by crews who cut the trim on site instead of forcing something that almost fits.
A limb through the roof or panels peeled back overnight needs covering now, not next week. We get it dried in first so the inside of the house stops taking damage.
Inspections come free with an estimate. We would rather find the small problem this spring than replace a ceiling for you next winter.
Guards and screens so you are not up a ladder every fall digging pine needles out of the gutter by hand.
Missing shingles get matched as close as weathering allows. Loose metal gets new fasteners and washers, and the eaves, rakes and ridge get sealed back up tight.
Underlayment, ice and water shield in the valleys and along the eaves, sealed penetrations, and proper closures at the ridge.
From a few tabs to a whole slope, we fix shingle roofs without pushing you toward a replacement you are not ready for.
We repair what the storm actually broke. If that is one slope, we do one slope, and we will not pad an estimate to make a claim look bigger.
Squirrels, wasps and water all treat a soft soffit as a front door. We close it up properly instead of patching over it.
Low slope roofs fail at the joints and around anything that sticks through them. That is where we start, not out in the middle of the field.
Backed out screws, split washers, rust starting at a seam, a panel lifted at the eave. These are our roofs, and most of the time a repair is all it takes.
We work around your hours, weekends included when that is what it takes to keep your doors open while the roof goes on.
Estimates are always free. That line has been on everything we have printed since 2002 and it still is. Somebody comes out to your Buffalo home, gets on the roof, looks in the attic if there is a way in, and leaves you a written price.
No pressure and no price that expires if you do not sign that day. If your Buffalo roof needs a repair rather than a replacement, we will tell you so, even though the repair is the smaller ticket.
A family roofing company that has kept the same habits since 2002.
The same family started this company putting metal roofs on neighbors houses in 2002. It has never been sold, franchised or handed off to a call center.
Beds get covered, tear off gets hauled as we go, and a magnet goes over the drive before we pull out. Your yard should look like we were never there.
Around twenty standard metal colors, and the chart comes out with the estimate so you can hold it up against your siding and shutters before you commit.
If your roof needs a repair and not a replacement, we say so. Plenty of our best customers are people we talked out of a job they did not need yet.
You get a start date and we hold to it. If weather moves your job we call you, rather than leaving you watching the driveway.
Wondering about metal versus shingle, or what a new roof runs in Buffalo? Start here.
Often, yes. Plenty of the Buffalo roofs we get called to look at need flashing reworked or a section refastened, not a whole new roof. We will tell you honestly which one you are looking at, and if it is repairable we would rather repair it.
Yes. Gutters, guards, soffit and fascia are all part of keeping the edge of a Buffalo roof dry, so we handle them along with the roof instead of sending you off to find somebody else to finish the job.
For most Buffalo homes, yes. A metal roof costs more up front than shingles, but it usually outlives two or three shingle roofs, sheds rain and snow better, and does not peel off in a hard wind. We will price metal and shingle side by side so you can compare real numbers instead of guessing.
Plenty of them. Most Buffalo customers choose from around twenty standard colors, and green, burgundy, bronze, black, gray, tan and barn red are the ones people pick most. We bring the color chart out with the estimate so you can hold it up against your siding.
Much less than people expect. Over solid decking with underlayment under it, a Buffalo metal roof sounds about like a shingle roof from inside the house. The loud tin roof people remember was screwed straight to open purlins over a barn with nothing underneath.
We do. After a storm we photograph the damage on your Buffalo roof and write an itemized estimate you can hand to your adjuster. We do not file the claim for you and we will not promise you what an adjuster is going to approve — that is their call, not ours.
We would rather let the work, and the people who paid for it, do the talking.

"Put a dark green metal roof on our house last spring and it still looks like the day they finished. Fair price, no surprises on the bill, and they hauled off every scrap."
We take care of homeowners in these neighboring communities as well.
