As approved applicators for major manufacturers like Carlisle and Firestone, we ensure proper installation techniques that maximize system longevity and maintain manufacturer warranties while meeting strict safety standards.
Roof Repair Services
Our repair specialists address storm damage and system deterioration using manufacturer-certified materials. We conduct comprehensive inspections to identify issues like open seams, damaged flashing, and drainage problems. By addressing small concerns proactively, we help clients avoid costly emergency repairs while preserving warranty validity through documented preventative maintenance programs.
Preventative Maintenance Programs
We offer scheduled maintenance plans that meet manufacturer requirements for warranty compliance. Our RoofTop Control software tracks service history and identifies potential issues before they escalate. Regular inspections cover critical components like membrane integrity, drainage systems, and flashing seals to extend roof lifespan and reduce long-term costs through proactive care.

Available in black or white options, these systems offer climate-specific benefits while meeting LEED certification requirements. Our certified technicians ensure proper adhesion and seam sealing to maximize performance and longevity in Chicago's variable weather conditions.
