Des Plaines' Trusted Roofing Company

Illinois Roofing Co. has served Des Plaines homeowners for over 15 years. Des Plaines is one of Cook County's most diverse and established northwest suburbs, featuring a broad mix of housing — from the pre-WWII bungalows and Foursquares near downtown and along the Des Plaines River, to the postwar ranch homes that spread through the 1950s and 60s, to the commercial and residential developments that expanded quickly with O'Hare International Airport's growth in the 1960s and 70s.

That diversity of housing eras means a wide range of roofing conditions and failure modes — and we know each one. Whether your Des Plaines home was built in 1928 or 1978, we bring the right knowledge and materials to inspect, repair, or replace your roof correctly the first time.

Local Knowledge

We Know Des Plaines Roofs

Des Plaines' housing tells the story of Cook County's postwar growth. The stately pre-WWII homes near downtown — many with steep-pitch roofs, brick chimneys, and architectural details that require careful material matching — give way to compact ranch homes as you move east and south. Near the O'Hare corridor, you find a mix of mid-century commercial development alongside residential pockets where homeowners have lived for decades and just now need a full roof replacement for the first time or second time.

The city's proximity to major storm tracks that follow the O'Hare–Schaumburg corridor means Des Plaines gets hit hard by hail and wind regularly. We've helped hundreds of Des Plaines homeowners document storm damage, navigate insurance claims, and get new roofs installed correctly — often at little or no out-of-pocket cost.

Customer Reviews

What Des Plaines Homeowners Say

★★★★★

"Our 1952 bungalow near downtown had a slow leak for two years. Two roofers couldn't find it. Illinois Roofing traced it to a chimney flashing failure in under 30 minutes, re-flashed it properly, and we've been leak-free for three winters. Incredible."

— Tom P. · Downtown Des Plaines
★★★★★

"Full roof replacement done in a single day. They handled the city permit, the tearoff, and the cleanup, and I couldn't find a single nail anywhere on the property afterward. Will absolutely recommend them to friends in Des Plaines."

— Susan H. · East Des Plaines
★★★★★

"After hail last spring, Illinois Roofing documented the damage, worked with our insurance company, and we got a full replacement covered. Quick, professional, and they answered every question we had. Great experience."

— Ray M. · West Des Plaines
