"I just had Berg install a new roof and gutters on my home. From the beginning, Nick was very friendly, professional, and extremely responsive. He made the whole thing a lot less stressful than it could have been. They even fixed a couple of things that technically weren't part of the roof and gutters. My house looks great! I am so happy with the job they did! I would definitely recommend Berg!"

"Excellent service and follow-up. The roof was completed in one day and the gutters and downspouts two days later. Nick kept us informed throughout the process."

"My new roof was completed on Monday, June 19. Not only was Estate Exteriors the best estimate of choice, but their work was exceptional! My neighbor commented on how precise they were in measuring and replacing a few wood roof panels as needed. They were extremely careful with clean-up. I have a dog, so am happy there were NO nails found in my yard, and all bits of roofing materials were picked up. It was a pleasure working with Eugene. I found him to be very honest and appreciated his advise. I HIGHLY recommend Estate Exteriors Inc. to anyone considering repairing or replacing their roof. Jan M. Naperville"

"I was referred to them from a friend who had a bathroom done. When he met with my friend, he told my friend that they are a one stop shop kind of a company. They do additions, roofing, and so on. I had them come over, they did some work on my place. It went fantastic. I am very, very happy. The owner, Robert, actually came out to the house. He was actually the guy who was doing the work along with his workers which really made me happy. He was not just a guy who came out and sold me the work. He was the first one at my house and he was the last one to leave. I have very little trust for people who come to work on my home. They were very professional, very clean. I thought they were fantastic. The day I contacted them, they came out. They ended up coming right on the clock and when they ended up having to stay later in the day to finish, they went to all my neighbors to tell them they would need to be working a little bit later so there might be some noise. They gave me a great warranty on it. He even had the warranty notarized for me. I have never had anyone do that."

"I?m extremely happy with the new roof installed by Enrique?s Roofing. It looks fantastic. After reaching out to several companies for estimates, Enrique?s stood out, not just for their competitive pricing, but for the confidence and trust they inspired from the very beginning. Sergio, the rep and foreman was great and the crew is extremely hard working, respectful, and clearly took pride in their work. They didn?t rush to just ?get the job done?, they worked efficiently, paid attention to detail, and had a great attitude. I appreciated the positive reviews as they were spot on. I highly recommend Enrique?s Roofing to anyone looking for quality work and a trustworthy team."

"Had my roof and gutters damaged by hail and wind. My roof was 18 years old. My insurance only wanted to give me money to patch and replace sections of roofs and gutters. We picked out the color of roof, provided samples to review for me and my wife. Phil from Titan roofing sent over Joliet code for full replacement to my insurance carrier and they got me my entire roof replaced and gutters. Came out and got the job done in two days in February 2022!! They did a great job on installation, cleanup and services. Highly recommend company and make sure you use them with your insurance companies. Make sure you ask for "Phil" he will walk you threw the process and deliver you a great experience."

Roofing questions, answered by experts

There are several pros and cons of flat roofs. One disadvantage of flat roofs is that you lose potential attic space because it's flat. Flat roofs tend to pool water and because they lack an angle, any leak in the roof—usually due to a bad seal—has the potential to let in a lot of water. They don’t work well in climates with snow. Flat roofs are also structurally weaker than sloped roofs.

A standard roof can hold a live load of about 20 pounds per square foot. However, gable roofs often have steeper-than-average slopes, so calculating their weight capacity can be challenging. If the slope of your gable roof is greater than 4:12, the live load needs to be decreased to allow for a larger dead load. Ask your roofer exactly how much weight your roof can support.

The best way to know if your roof can support solar panels is to hire a structural engineer. They’ll look at your roof and approve the design of your solar panel system or suggest changes. The best roofing for solar panels is made from strong materials like asphalt shingles and metal, but tile and gravel will work. Softer materials like thatch or temporary structures are not a good fit.

Whether you should choose a flat roof or a sloped roof depends on your particular situation. Flat roofs tend to be less expensive to install. However, sloped roofs have longer lifespans and stand up better to heavy snow and other inclement weather.

Keep in mind that even a flat roof needs to have a slight slope, usually around 1/2 inch for every foot. If it is completely flat, water will pool and cause damage, either from weight or leakage or rot.

Copper roofs last an average of around 100 years, making it one of the longest-lasting types of roofs. It’s significantly more expensive than an asphalt shingle roof, but it also lasts three to four times as long, providing great value for the money. You can extend the life of your copper roof by carrying out routine maintenance, like scheduling annual cleaning and roof inspections.
