Roof Restoration

Roof restoration renews an aging or weathered flat roof without a full tear-off, addressing worn membrane, deteriorated flashing, and other surface issues before they turn into structural problems. Property owners in Chicago typically consider restoration when a roof is showing age but the underlying deck is still sound, or when a full replacement isn't yet necessary.

Assessing the Roof Before Work Begins

  • Drone Roof Inspections — Aerial passes document seams, flashing points, and drains across the whole roof without extra foot traffic.
  • Infrared Roof Moisture Scanning — Scanning locates moisture trapped beneath the membrane so it can be addressed as part of the restoration plan.

Restoring the Membrane and Details

  • TPO Roofing Systems — Heat-welded TPO membrane can renew a flat roof's reflective, weathertight surface.
  • EPDM Rubber Roofing Membrane — A flexible rubber membrane option for low-slope roofs undergoing restoration.
  • Modified Bitumen APP Roofing — Torch-applied layers reinforce tear and puncture resistance where a roof needs it most.
  • Flashing & Scupper Systems — Resealed flashing and scuppers keep restored water off the roof edges instead of pooling there.
  • Ponding Water Correction — Tapered systems and re-sloping correct standing water that stresses an aging membrane.
  • Tuckpointing & Mortar Systems — Repairing parapet walls and chimneys closes off routes water uses to get behind the membrane.
