What sold me on them is their honesty. We thought we were going to need a new roof. They could have sold us one, but the Waukegan Roofing representative who came over let us know that we didn’t need to replace the roof…we just needed a simple repair. We were impressed with their honesty, even though it resulted in a smaller job and less revenue. We have been sold ever since. The work they have done has been high quality too.

Bur Roofing
Built-up roofing (BUR), also known as tar-and-gravel roofing, is renowned in industrial roofing for its reliability and cost-effectiveness. Consisting of alternating layers of asphalt or coal tar and reinforcing fabrics like fiberglass or polyester, BUR roofs create a robust, multi-layered membrane. This method makes these roofs highly durable and capable of enduring harsh weather, UV exposure, and foot traffic. When installed and maintained correctly, BUR roofs can last over 40 years, appealing to industrial building owners seeking a low-maintenance, long-term roofing solution.
Metal Roofing
Metal roofing offers industrial property owners a blend of aesthetics and practicality. With sleek, modern designs, these roofs elevate a structure’s appearance while providing outstanding fire resistance. Recognized for strength, durability, and ability to withstand severe weather conditions, metal roofs can be made of tin, steel, aluminum, or recycled materials. This versatility enables both design flexibility and sustainability in construction.
Modified Bitumen Roofing
Modified bitumen roofing, or “mod bit,” is made from modified asphalt, fortified with elastic additives to boost flexibility without sacrificing strength. Known for durability and resilience against weather, mod bit roofs are favored by commercial and industrial property owners looking for durable, low-maintenance solutions. Notable advantages include cost-effectiveness and minimal upkeep, often limited to straightforward repairs and occasional resealing.
Thermoset Roofing (EPDM)/span>
Thermoset roofing, also known as EPDM roofing, excels in colder climates due to its elasticity and performance. EPDM roofs reflect sunlight, reducing heat absorption and potentially lowering cooling costs. Known for durability, weather resistance, and minimal maintenance, EPDM is a preferred choice for a diverse range of industrial applications. Available in various thicknesses and installation methods, EPDM roofing offers versatility and customization to meet various project requirements in industrial settings.
Thermoplastic Roofing
Thermoplastic roofing systems feature exceptional resistance to oils, grease, and chemical vapors, making them ideal for commercial kitchens and food service facilities. Known for longevity, minimal maintenance, and resilience against extreme weather, thermoplastic roofs offer reliable, long-term performance and protection for commercial properties. Materials like PVC (polyvinyl chloride) and TPO (thermoplastic polyolefin) provide customizable options in colors, thicknesses, and installation methods to enhance versatility for a range of needs.
Green Roofing
Renowned for their eco-friendly design, green roofs – also called vegetative or living roofs – mitigate stormwater runoff and alleviate strain on urban drainage systems. Green roofing systems can also reduce heat island effects, enhance air quality, and lower energy consumption for buildings. With natural insulation and thermal regulation, these roofs can also cut heating and cooling costs. Offering a holistic approach to modern roofing, these living roofs combine functionality, beauty, and environmental stewardship.
Maintenance Roofing FAQ
At Waukegan Roofing, our roof maintenance programs include comprehensive services designed to keep your roofing system in optimal condition. This involves regular inspections to identify potential issues, thorough cleaning to remove debris and prevent buildup, minor repairs to address any immediate concerns, and maintenance of gutters and downspouts to ensure proper drainage. Additionally, clients will receive detailed reports on the condition of their roof, with recommendations for any further action needed to maintain its integrity and performance.
Scheduling roof maintenance twice a year is a best practice, but the frequency can also depend on various factors specific to your situation. Since we experience extreme weather conditions like heavy snowfall, high winds, and severe storms, customers in the Chicagoland and North Illinois area might benefit from more frequent inspections – especially after significant weather events. Additionally, roofs with complex designs or those with substantial tree coverage may require more regular attention to remove debris and prevent moss or algae growth.
Preventive roof maintenance helps business owners identify and address potential roofing issues before they become major, costly problems. Regular inspections and upkeep can extend the lifespan of your roof, enhance its performance, and ensure it remains in good condition to protect your property from the elements. By proactively managing minor repairs and routine cleaning, you can prevent leaks, structural damage, and other issues that could lead to expensive emergency repairs or premature roof replacement. Our system saves you time, money, avoids unnecessary stress, and provides property owners with peace of mind!
Absolutely! We tailor all of our maintenance plans to meet the unique needs of your specific roof and business. Our experienced commercial and industrial roofing contractors consider various factors like the type of roofing material, age of the roof, local weather conditions, and any specific concerns you may have. By customizing a maintenance plan specifically for businesses and commercial property owners, your roofing system receives the attention and care it needs to remain in top condition – maximizing the longevity of your investment.
During each maintenance visit, our professional inspectors will thoroughly investigate all aspects of your roof, including shingles, flashing, gutters, skylights, vents, and downspouts. They will look for signs of wear and tear, leaks, or potential weak spots that could lead to more significant issues if left unattended. Cleaning services involve removing leaves, branches, and other debris that can accumulate and cause water to back up or lead to roof damage. Minor repairs might include fixing or replacing loose/damaged shingles, sealing small leaks, or addressing issues with flashing around chimneys, vents, or skylights.
In addition to these services, our maintenance program provides you with a detailed report after each visit. This report outlines the current condition of your roof, any work that was performed, and recommendations for any further action. At Waukegan Roofing, our proactive approach helps business owners stay informed and keep their roofing system in top condition throughout the year.

TESTIMONIAL
They put a new roof on my house 3 years before I bought the house. Then 2 years after I bought the house one of the plywood sheets lifted off a little creating a hole in the roof. A big problem. So I called and they had a crew out to fix it–no questions asked–within a few days. No charge, even though it was a few months out of warranty and even though I was not original customer. I was pleasantly surprised a company actually stands by their work like that–even five years later. They even inspected the whole roof and fixed another small issue I wasn’t even aware of.
Had a roofing job that needed to get relooked. Bruce sent a tech out that very morning. He found out what it was and made the repair in the rain! Waukegan Roofing stands behind their work! Would definitely recommend them to friends & family.
