Naperville sat directly inside both the March 10 and April 14, 2026 hail storm zones. We specialize in insurance claims, work fast, and back every install with a lifetime warranty. Showroom 30 minutes south in Joliet — but we come to you.
Two major hail events in five weeks this spring, on top of the 2024 derecho and earlier hail. If your roof was damaged in any of these and you haven't filed yet, you may still be inside the 12-month window.
A second major hail event swept through Chicagoland just five weeks after March 10, adding roughly 200,000 affected homes regionally. Naperville and the I-88 corridor were directly in-path. Claim window open through April 2027.
One of the largest hail events to hit the Chicago metro in recent memory. DuPage County, including Naperville, was inside the impact zone. Roof damage from this storm is currently the most active claim category we're working. Claim window open through March 2027.
High winds and quarter-plus size hail across the I-88 corridor. Many DuPage County homeowners filed successful claims following this event.
A derecho produced widespread wind damage across northern Illinois along with a record 32 confirmed tornadoes — the largest single-day total in NWS Chicago history. Wind-lifted shingles and torn underlayment are still showing up as fresh claims.
Supercells produced large hail across northern Illinois and the southwest suburbs. Claim window for this event closed in May 2025, but earlier-filed claims may still be in process.
Wind damage across the area produced shingle loss, lifted ridge caps, and compromised flashings on homes throughout DuPage and Will counties.
Here's something most homeowners don't know: the City of Naperville does NOT require a building permit for a standard asphalt shingle roof replacement as long as the existing sheathing stays in place. Permits are only required for metal, wood, slate, or sealed-membrane roofs, or if the deck is being replaced.
That sounds convenient — but it actually cuts both ways. With no automatic city inspection, there's no built-in safety net to catch a fly-by-night job. The State of Illinois still requires that your roofer be properly licensed and insured. We hold IL Residential Roofing License #104.019489 and Commercial #105.009527, plus full liability coverage. We also pull permits whenever the job requires one (metal, wood, slate, decking work) and handle every step.
We have a full showroom at Louis Joliet Mall, about a 30-minute drive south down I-55 from Naperville. Stop by to see shingle samples, premium synthetics, metal options, and meet our team in person. Or skip the trip — we'll bring samples to your driveway.

We don't just look for damage — we understand how insurance restoration actually works and what it takes to get full roof replacement approved.
We climb on your roof and document all storm damage, including damage that's often missed by others. We look at every component: shingles, metal vents, flashing, and gutters.
This is where our expertise makes the difference. We evaluate three key factors: Can replacement materials properly integrate with your existing roof? Can repairs be made without causing additional damage? Can the roof be restored to its original appearance?
If we find damage that can't be properly repaired, we document everything for your insurance company. We explain why limited repairs won't restore your roof and provide evidence for full replacement.
The key insight: Insurance companies start with the smallest possible repair. But if that repair can't restore your roof without causing damage or using mismatched materials, they owe more. That's where our expertise makes the difference.
As certified contractors with major shingle manufacturers, we offer extended warranties and access to premium materials that aren't available to every contractor — including upgrade options that pair well with Naperville's larger custom homes.
Naperville is a target for storm chasers — a wealthy zip with no permit barrier means out-of-state operators flood the area after every storm. We're not them. We've been licensed in Illinois since 2017 with transparent communication, attention to detail, and warranties we actually honor.
Illinois licenses #104.019489 and #105.009527. Serving Illinois since 2017 with full insurance and bonding — not a magnetic-sign truck following the storm.
We keep you informed at every step. No wondering what's happening with your claim or when work will be completed.
We don't file claims on hope — we file with documented evidence of why repairs won't work and full replacement is needed. That matters most when claims volume is this high and adjusters are stretched thin.
Manufacturer-backed lifetime warranty on materials, plus our 5-year workmanship warranty. Even when the city doesn't require oversight, we stand behind every installation.
Naperville's larger custom homes often justify upgrading from basic asphalt to architectural premium, Class 4 impact-resistant, or synthetic options like Brava cedar shake and slate. We carry them all.
