Showalter Roofing Service is an experienced roofer providing commercial roofing services in the Chicagoland and Middle Tennessee areas. Our installers have the necessary training and skills to give you the confidence that the job gets done right the first time.
We have needed a new roof for several years; ceiling leakage, etc. Only this year have we found the means to proceed. We did some research around our neighborhood, and chose Showalter because it was favored by folks we knew, who had connections with building or contracting. The recommendation was well earned, and although the quote was higher than we expected, it came with a guarantee that we can have problems repaired as long as we live under this roof. Not only that, but if we sell the house, there are accomodations for the new homeowners as well. We didn't have to wait long for them to schedule work, which was great. The work was begun and completed in ONE DAY. That was surprising, considering that there was a lot of plywood that needed replacing. They recommended ridge vents and edge vents to maximize air flow through the attic space. They cleaned up after themselves, and inspection was complete within 4 days of the job. We are very pleased with the result, and with all the good advice that Showalter gave us to fix our issues.

The team over at Showalter is outstanding. They take great pride in their work and treat your house as if it was their own. They did a complete review of everything once they were finished and even came back a couple of times after the job was completed to do a quality check. We will definitely recommend Showalter Roofing to family and friends.

I had issues with water leaking through to ceilings throughout the house and I thought I had a roof leak. Showalter replaced our roof about three years ago. Mariusz came out a few weeks ago and determined it wasn't actually the roof, but condensation had built up in the attic and was leaking downwards. I was concerned about possible mold so he gave me recommendations on who to call to fix the issues. The company he recommended has been extremely busy and unable to come out, so Mariusz came back again with another employee, Ivan, for a thorough inspection of the attic to see if they saw any mold, which they didn't. I am extremely impressed with Mariusz' attention to my concern about possible mold in my house. He told me to keep in touch and to contact him again with any questions or if he could be of any further assistance.

They came out very quickly the first time we called. Rain was threatening and we needed the leak fixed quickly. They fixed a leak at the peak of the roof, but after a few days the roof was leaking again. There was a second leak that they had to go through the attic to find. They were back very quickly again and fixed the second leak. They were very knowledgeable and professional and took time to explain everything clearly.
Description of Work: We had a leak on the roof that was damaging the drywall inside the house and dripping a lot of water when it rained.

It was a very good experience. They were really nice to work with. I had several roofers come out to look at my issue. They seemed to be the most thorough and knowledgeable as well as reasonably priced. They had good follow up. I had a lot of issues with other companies just not following through when giving me estimates and stuff so they were really good follow up.

I contacted Showalter in October and signed the contract later in the month. They offered me a competitive price (in the middle of other quotes), but they were the only ones who let me know what I really needed to have done. One company just gave a quote and didn't let me know that my leaking problem was actually my chimney and not my roof, and the other company tried to sell me everything from radiant heat in the attic to new gutters. I asked if I could have it done before the week of Thanksgiving, and they said no problem. They scheduled me for the Tuesday of the prior week. However, when Monday came, they emailed that they were behind and had to move my job to the following Monday. I immediately called and said I needed it done this week, so they rescheduled for Tuesday. However, when Tuesday came, they had not finished another job, so they could not come Wednesday. They offered Saturday, but I didn't want that. I had no choice but do wait until Monday. I was not happy about that, but sometimes those things are unavoidable. Once they started, they were punctual, professional and thorough--answering all the questions I had and even doing a few extra things when I asked. There were no additional costs over the estimates, and they got my stuff done in a day and a half. Because it was cold, the roof wasn't laying down like it should--it looked a little warped, but I am positive that is just because of the weather. I would recommend Showalter Roofing if you want a fair price for great work.

I would highly recommend them. Excellent provider. Was easy to contact. Was extremely responsive. Was timely to all appointments and commitments. Was able to communicate easily with sales Rep via cell phone and text messaging as needed. Work was completed exactly as promised. Was ~10% cheaper than other providers with what we thought was a superior product. Very clean. Covered siding, windows, garage door, bushes, etc. so they did not get damaged during the tear-off process. Cleaned up everything at the end of the job and I would not have known they were there except for the beautiful new roof. Went through a thorough inspection with the sales representative after the job was done to make sure that we were satisfied before making final payment. We had 1 very minor issue after the installation and they came back promptly to resolve the issue immediately and to my satisfaction.
Description of Work: Replaced roof and skylight. This included tear off of old roof and installation of new roof, vents, attic fan, and skylight.

Showalter Roofing responded quickly to my emergency call on 7/2/2015 as I was about to leave for a 4 day weekend . The problem was substantial raccoon damage to my roof (holes) which they repaired. The 2 repair men were very congenial, and did an excellent job. Later, billing glitches were worked out most amicably with the manager Mr. Martin, who could not have been nicer. The cost for work done was very reasonable, and I would definitely engaged Showwalter Roofing again.

Jeff, the Showalter rep, was very helpful in explaining the job and in helping us select the type and color of shingle we ultimately selected. We were told by him and by other roofing companies that our two story roof line was complicated. One company said it would probably take three days to do the job. Showalter finished 99% of the work in one day. The tear off started at 7:30 a.m. THE SAME TEAM WAS STILL WORKING UNTIL AFTER DARK, about 8 p.m. We have no reason to believe that the materials used or the installation was subpar. But one has to wonder how well the non-English speaking crew was functioning toward the end of such a grueling day. A day later the man who was to do the sheet metal work on our two chimneys showed up. He asked where the left over shingles were. There were none left at the work site. We couldn't help him. He needed to remove and replace some of our aluminum siding to complete the job. The day after he left we discovered the left over VINYL siding that he had either thrown on the ground or had blown there during the night. We alerted Showalter to three issues that were obvious without climbing on the roof: There were large clearly visible scratches on our two year old gutters that had not been there prior to their men installing the roof. Some of the leaf guards (also two years old) that their crew was supposed to remove and reinstall had merely been bent up and then down and were no longer as smooth as they were prior to this project. And some of our siding was pulled away and had not been properly set back into place. We communicated our concerns. Some were simply ignored. As to the scratches, they insisted that their workmen (even though they were on the job for 12+ hours and completed the work in the dark) were always careful and were absolutely blameless. We finally settled these matters with a small credit to our bill. It was an inadequate settlement, but we needed to move on. If you use this company, take pictures of EVERYTHING before the job and as the job progresses. Maybe you'll have more success with post-installation issues than we had.

The crew at Showalter were able to squeeze me in mid-busy season in order to cement a few loose shingles to satisfy our homeowners insurance on a new home purchase. I appreciate their professionalism and their flexibility in order to make this rather small (in comparison to an average roofing job) repair happen in a timely fashion!

As home owners we just see the roof and not what's going on underneath. Jeff, from Showalter Roofing service, explained the problmes and how they would be repaired. Mario and Santos were great technicians. They explained everything and showed me what they found via pictures. Thanks for giving us a roof that will survive our winters without leaking!

It was very easy. Within a day of our call to the company a representative showed up and assessed the roof. They gave us an estimate and scheduled the work to be done within 2 weeks. I'm sure a more urgent repair could have been scheduled sooner. The work was done within the time estimated and the workmen did a fantastic job of cleaning up afterwards.

They did a good job and I would recommend them highly. They are on consideration to actually replace all the roof in the complex and hopefully that would be 5 years down the line if they did a good job now then at least we should get at least another 5 years out of it. The association was started in 1998 and the last building was finished in about 2003 so we're getting up there in the age of the buildings. The original builder was definitely not one of quality and so we've had numerous leaks and since we've found Showalter, it dropped off dramatically as far as the number of leaks reported for a year.
Description of Work: At that time I was the president of the homeowner's association and it's a very large homeowner's association so we used them for putting new flashing on 101 buildings. They've also done window leaks and roof leaks.
