One Deerfield IL Residential Roofing And Siding Business Helps Homeowners Preserve Their Biggest Investment

By Kelly Blomquist


Homes need regular updating to keep them looking their best and to minimize or prevent damage. A Deerfield IL residential roofing and siding company provides roofing and related services to help homeowners protect their investment.

At some point, a roof may need to be replaced. A new roof increases the home's value, enhances its appearance, and helps keep the home warm in winter and cool in summer.

Roof materials are varied. Homeowners can choose from synthetic substances for low slope roofs. Others may prefer the type of material that is petroleum based.

For steep-slope roofing, several types of shingles are available. Three-tap asphalt fiberglass shingles (traditional style) are guaranteed to last 25 years. Laminated asphalt fiberglass shingles (architectural style) have a limited lifetime guarantee. Heavyweight asphalt fiberglass shingles, available in various styles, come with a lifetime guarantee. Customers may also select metal steep-sloping roof systems, wood shakes and shingles, and synthetic roofing systems.

Protecting the areas around roofs is also important. They occasionally need repairing and replacing, and a good roof company will be able to assess the current condition of these areas. Gutters need to be maintained in order to keep the structure strong, for instance.

Gutters can be made of different materials. Aluminum is relatively inexpensive but it doesn't last as long as steel or copper. Copper needs cleaning periodically and can discolor. Steel gutters last a long time, but they tend to rust.

Fascias and soffits are available in aluminum, vinyl, and wood.

In addition to roof replacement and repair, the Deerfield IL residential roofing and siding company maintains gutters, fascias, and soffits. Services include repairs, leaf guard installation, cleaning, and painting.
