Who We Are

A Commercial Roofing Team That Grew Up On Great Lakes, IL Rooflines

Before Roof Repair Smedway was a name on a truck, our foremen were already up on ladders across Great Lakes, IL, figuring out which shingle brands actually hold their seal through a rough season and which ones just look good in a showroom.

We don't treat licensing as a formality — it's proof that the person on your roof knows what they're doing and that you're covered if anything goes sideways.

A roof repair that's "close enough" tends to fail again within a year, usually during the exact storm it was supposed to handle. We don't build that way.

Early Warning Signs

What A Failing Roof Looks Like Before The Leak

Most emergency calls we get trace back to a smaller sign that went unnoticed for weeks or months.

The earlier one of these signs gets a proper look, the smaller the repair usually stays; waiting rarely makes a roof problem cheaper to fix.

Granule Buildup At Downspouts

Heavy granule loss usually means the shingles are nearing the end of their service life.

Shingles Lifting Off The Deck

Shingles that curl at the edges have lost flexibility and are more likely to crack in the next windstorm.

Pinholes In The Roof Deck

Pinpricks of light in the attic are an early, fixable version of what becomes a leak later.

Brown Water Stains Overhead

Stains grow slowly, which is exactly why they get ignored until they spread.

Climbing Energy Bills

An unexplained bill increase is worth checking against your roof's condition.

Missing Shingles On The Roofline

A bare patch after high wind is a direct gap in your roof's weather barrier that needs covering right away.

Our Process

Four Steps From Your Call To A Finished Roof

Homeowners tell us the not-knowing is often worse than the repair itself, so we try to remove as much guesswork from the process as we can.

1

Get Dispatch On The Phone

After-hours calls still reach a live line for anything time-sensitive.

2

Damage Assessment

The inspection covers decking, flashing, and ventilation, not just the obvious visible damage.

3

You Get A Quote

An itemized estimate is delivered before any work starts, covering materials, labor, and cleanup.

4

Crew Completes The Job

A final walkthrough confirms everything matches the agreed scope.

Why Choose Us

What Separates Our Commercial Roofing Crews From The Rest

If you've been burned by a roofing company before, these are the specific things we do differently, not just a promise that we're "better."

Nearby Crews Mean Faster Arrival

Being local means we're rarely the crew still driving in from somewhere else.

Flat-Rate, Written Pricing

Every estimate is itemized so you know exactly what you're paying for.

Real Tools, Real Training

Our installers follow manufacturer spec on every underlayment overlap and fastener pattern, not general guesswork.

Written Warranty On Labor

Every job includes a written labor warranty separate from the shingle manufacturer's coverage.

We Handle The Paperwork Side

We're not your insurance company, but we make that part of the process easier.

No-Pressure, Honest Recommendations

If a repair solves the problem, that's what we recommend — we don't push a replacement to inflate the invoice.

Our Promise

Our Written Promise To Great Lakes Homeowners

Every job closes with a written workmanship guarantee, separate from whatever the material manufacturer already covers — if something's wrong, we come back and fix it.

If something unexpected turns up mid-job, like hidden decking damage, we flag it and get your approval before it changes your bill.

If you ever need to use the guarantee, the process is a phone call, not a fight.
