Roofing
Cornerstone Exteriors is Chicago’s Best Choice for a New Roof or Roof Repair
The roof is the outer most layer of your home and is the first line of defense against nature’s elements (e.g. hail, wind, storm, and rain related roof damage). A proper roofing framework prevents element-driven damage from infiltrating under your shingles, causing detrimental effects to your home. Whether you need roof repair or a new roof completely, Cornerstone Exteriors will provide ample solutions for you to choose from in order to best protect and beautify your home.
As Chicago’s premier remodeling company, we offer a wide variety of roofing products, such as asphalt, cedar, and slate. If, for any reason, you are not satisfied with the selection of style or color, we will gladly work with you to find the best solution that fit your needs.
Leak Barrier – Using an ice and water shield, as well as proper flashing, provides extra protection to areas susceptible to water seepage, like valleys, chimneys, skylights, eaves and rakes.
Flat Roof – We will guarantee your roof to be even and good as new. Not only will we enhance the look of your roof, but we will also ensure its durability to prevent wind blow offs.
Quality Shingles – By using leading manufacturers such as Gaf, Iko, and Owens Corning, your roof is guaranteed to resist strong winds and heavy rain.
Asphalt & Fiberglass Shingles are currently the most popular types of residential roof material for various reasons. They are relatively inexpensive and fairly simple to install. Asphalt shingles come in two basic types: fiber glass and organic. The lifespan of asphalt shingles depends highly upon the environment.
Cedar Shakes bring a classic, American colonial look. Shake and wooden shingles are typically cut from salvage logs, which are dead trees extracted from previous logging operations. Cedar shingles are known for their durability, strength and ability to withstand the elements, including pests and severe weather. They are also prized for their appearance, whether it is the deep red or silvery white variety. The life expectancy of cedar shakes is up to 30 years, if quality materials are used.
Composite Slate is one of the most distinguished building products. It graces many of the most impressive buildings in the world. Cathedrals, palaces, residential homes, and castles have incorporated this long lasting material as a weather shield. Slate is really nothing more than mud that has been compressed and heated. Fine particles of clay and silt build up in thin layers at the bottom of shallow seas or at the mouths of large river deltas. Slate roofs are designed to last; it is not uncommon for slate roofs to last up to 50 years.
