Residential Roofing Done Right, by a Local Contractor.
Your roof protects everything underneath it. When it fails, or when it's wearing down, the damage doesn't stay on the shingles. We install quality materials, use crews who know what they're doing, and stand behind the work with a real warranty.
01 / Why Your Roof Matters
Getting Ahead of Roofing Issues Is One of the Better Decisions for a Home.
When a roof fails, or when it’s wearing down, the damage doesn’t stay contained to the shingles. Water finds its way in, materials deteriorate, and a repair that would have cost a few hundred dollars becomes a project that costs much more. The smart move is to get ahead of it, with the right contractor and the right materials.
RX Roofing & Construction is a licensed, bonded, and insured residential roofing contractor serving Chicago and the surrounding suburbs. We serve homeowners across the region, from single-story repairs to full replacements on larger homes. We’re local, we use quality materials from manufacturers who back their products, and we stand behind our work with a workmanship warranty.
02 / Services We Provide
We Cover the Full Range of Residential Roofing Needs.
Roof Replacement
A complete tear-off and reinstallation of your roof system. We walk you through your material options, manage permits, and handle the job from first shingle to final inspection.
Roof Repair
Targeted work to fix specific problem areas, including damaged shingles, failed flashing, and compromised sections after a storm.
Roof Maintenance
Scheduled visits to inspect the full roof system, fix minor issues before they grow, and give you a documented record of your roof’s condition.
Roof Inspection
A close-up, professional inspection with a written report on what we found. Often the right first step after a storm or when a roof is aging.
Roof Leak Repair
Finding and stopping an active leak at the source, not just patching the symptoms. We track the water back to where it’s getting in.
03 / Roofing Materials
The Material Matters. Here's What We Install.
The right choice depends on your home’s architecture, your budget, your roof’s pitch, and how long you plan to stay in the property. We’ll give you honest guidance on what fits your situation.
Asphalt Shingle Roofing
The most common residential roofing material in the area, and for good reason. Modern architectural shingles from GAF, Owens Corning, CertainTeed, IKO, and Malarkey are durable, cost-effective, and come in a wide range of profiles and colors. Impact-resistant options give better protection in hail-prone markets and often qualify for an insurance discount.
Cedar Shake Roofing
Real cedar has a character synthetic materials don’t fully replicate: natural variation in color and texture, a look that ages well, and solid performance in the Midwest climate when installed properly. It asks for a careful install, and we do it right, with the maintenance guidance to keep it performing for years.
DaVinci Composite Roofing
DaVinci composite shingles replicate the look of cedar shake or slate using engineered synthetic materials. For homeowners who want that look without the ongoing maintenance of real wood, it’s a strong option. Longer warranty terms, Class 4 impact resistance, and a finish that holds up without the periodic treatment real cedar needs.
04 / Storm Damage & Insurance Claims
Hit by Hail or High Winds? The Damage May Not Show From the Ground.
If your roof was recently hit, granule loss, cracked shingles, and damaged flashing often only become apparent when you’re up on the roof looking closely. We offer free post-storm roof inspections. If we find damage, we document it thoroughly and work directly with your insurance company through the claims process.
Your homeowners policy likely covers storm damage to the roof. Having a local contractor handle the adjuster communication and the documentation properly can make a real difference in how your claim gets resolved.

06 / One Contractor, Roof to Gutters
Roofing Is Where We Start, Not Where We Stop.

Siding
Vinyl, fiber cement, and brick siding, with honest guidance on which fits your home and budget. Storm-damaged panels matched and replaced.
Gutters
Seamless gutter systems installed, cleaned, and repaired, coordinated with your roof work so it all happens on one schedule.

08 / Common Questions
Roofing Questions, Answered Straight.
Most hail and wind damage isn’t visible from the ground. Granule loss, cracked shingles, and damaged flashing often only show up when you’re up on the roof looking closely. A professional inspection from a contractor who actually gets on the roof is the only reliable way to know. After a big storm, that inspection is free.
Replacement is the right call when a roof is at or near the end of its useful life, or when storm damage is too widespread for a targeted repair to make financial sense. If the damage is limited to specific areas, like a few shingles or a section of flashing, a repair often does the job. We’ll inspect it and tell you honestly which one fits.
The right choice depends on your home’s architecture, your budget, your roof’s pitch, and how long you plan to stay in the property. Asphalt shingle is the most common and cost-effective. Cedar shake gives a natural wood look. DaVinci composite mimics cedar or slate with less upkeep. We walk you through the options and give honest guidance.
Your homeowners policy likely covers storm damage to the roof when it’s caused by a covered weather event. Whether your claim is approved, and how much it covers, depends on your policy, your deductible, and how well the damage is documented. Having a contractor who documents thoroughly and talks directly with your adjuster makes a real difference in how a claim settles.
