SAME-DAY

Roof Repair

Not every problem needs a full replacement. Sometimes it's a blown-off shingle, a cracked pipe boot, or deteriorated valley flashing. We diagnose the actual issue and fix that. We don't upsell you into a new roof you don't need.

storm damage repair
LICENSED

Storm Damage Repair

Our storm damage process: free inspection, full photo documentation, direct filing with your insurance carrier, meet the adjuster on-site, and handle the repairs once approved. We don't ask for money upfront on insurance claims.

Shingle Roofing

Asphalt shingle roofing is the most common and cost-effective roofing system in Forrest. Our crews install 15-20 shingle roofs a month. We know the product inside and out. Nailing patterns, exposure measurements, hip and ridge details.

flat roofing

Flat Roofing

Commercial flat roof replacement in Forrest starts with a core sample to check the existing insulation. If it's waterlogged, everything comes off. If it's dry, we can sometimes overlay. Saves you $2-$4 per square foot.

"Asked for a second opinion because another company said I needed a full replacement. Forrest Roofing & Maintenance said I only needed valley flashing repair and some shingle replacement. Saved me about $14,000. I trust these guys."

"Had a flat roof leak on our commercial building downtown. Forrest Roofing & Maintenance patched it temporarily, then came back and did a full TPO replacement the next week. Solved a problem we'd been chasing for two years."

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

We partner with GreenSky and Hearth for roofing financing. Options include 12-month same-as-cash (0% if paid in full within 12 months), 5-year fixed rate, and 7-10 year extended plans. Monthly payments on a $15,000 roof run about $150-$250/month depending on the term. Apply during the estimate.

Most residential roof replacements in Forrest cost between $8,500 and $24,000. The price depends on your roof size (measured in squares, where 1 square = 100 sq ft), pitch, accessibility, and material choice. Architectural shingles are $350-$550 per square installed. We give free estimates with exact pricing.

Common signs: curling or cracking shingles, missing shingles after wind events, granule loss (look in your gutters), daylight visible through the attic, sagging roof deck, and age. Most asphalt roofs last 20-30 years in Illinois. If you see any of these, call (877) 586-1316 for a free inspection. We'll be honest about whether you need a replacement or just a repair.

You get two warranties: one from the manufacturer on the materials and one from us on the workmanship. As a GAF Master Elite contractor, we can offer the Golden Pledge. That's 25 years on workmanship plus 50 years on the shingle. Owens Corning and CertainTeed have similar programs. Our own workmanship warranty is in writing and covers installation defects.

We install GAF Timberline HDZ, Owens Corning Duration, and CertainTeed Landmark. The three most popular architectural shingles in the country. All three are solid choices. GAF gives us access to the Golden Pledge warranty (25-year workmanship). Owens Corning Duration has SureNail technology for wind resistance. CertainTeed Landmark is a reliable mid-range option. We help you choose based on budget, color preference, and warranty goals.
