Illinois roofing, licensed and documented end to end

You'll never be offered a deductible rebate. Illinois law forbids it (815 ILCS 513/18). Anyone offering is telling you how they work.

PRQ Exteriors is a licensed Illinois roofing contractor and GAF Master Elite installer — steep-slope replacement, flat and low-slope membrane, hail and wind restoration, seamless gutters, siding and commercial systems across the state's storm corridor.

You get an inspection that walks the flashing, valleys and transitions rather than glancing at the field, and the state licence number printed on your contract as Illinois law requires — which is the first thing worth checking against anyone canvassing after a storm.

You'll receive the municipal permit pulled, the code inspection scheduled, a fixed written scope, and a manufacturer-backed warranty.

Roofing built for Chicagoland storms & Illinois claims

We're a Chicago-metro roofer — here's what Illinois hail, derecho winds, and the state's roofing and insurance rules mean for your roof and your claim.

  • Chicagoland takes real storm damage

    Chicagoland just took another major hail beating on July 27–28, 2026 — on top of the July 15, 2024 derecho and the repeated hail of spring 2025, with the Naperville/I-88 corridor squarely in-path. Hail bruising and wind-lifted shingles are often invisible from the ground; we inspect for them and document the damage for your carrier.

  • Class 4 shingles = insurance savings

    Many carriers offer a premium discount for Class 4 (UL 2218) impact-resistant shingles — a smart upgrade in a metro that now sees hail most years. We install them and document the upgrade so you can take the discount to your insurer.

  • Illinois law protects your deductible

    Under the Illinois Home Repair and Remodeling Act (815 ILCS 513/18), a contractor may not pay or rebate any part of your insurance deductible as an inducement — so be cautious of anyone who offers. We bill the claim straight; your only cost is the deductible you already owe.

  • Licensed Illinois roofers — check the number

    Illinois requires a state roofing contractor license (225 ILCS 335), and the license name and number must appear on every contract and bid; Cook County adds its own contractor registration on top. The storm-chasers who canvass after a big hail event often aren't licensed here — verify the number before you sign.

  • Permits & inspection, handled

    A full roof replacement needs a permit across the metro — the City of Chicago through the Department of Buildings, and each DuPage, Will, and Cook County municipality through its own building department. The permit triggers a code inspection of underlayment, flashing, and ventilation. We pull the permit and schedule the inspection wherever you are.

THE INSURANCE CLAIM EXPERTS

First, a free, honest inspection.

After a storm, the most critical step is a professional assessment. Damage from hail and wind is often invisible from the ground. Before you even file a claim, our experts will conduct a thorough inspection, documenting everything with photos, to confirm you have enough damage to justify a claim. This protects you and starts the process with clear evidence.

Mike and Anna were both so great to work with! Made our process easy and straightforward when we weren’t sure how to proceed. We really appreciated them!

Such an amazing company. My insurance company denied my claim when they came out and then I found Dan. What a lifesaver! He really fought for me and listened to everything I had to say. He made the entire process as painless as possible. I could not have asked for a better experience! Highly recommend!

Nevaeh and George are amazing! So helpful and answered all of our questions. Gave us a great explanation of the process and how to navigate through it!

Was a pleasure working with Mike. He gave us an honest assessment of our roof after a hailstorm (he indicated the roof was totally fine). Other roofing contractors were insisting that it needed replacement. We were glad to work with Mike knowing he would tell us the truth and not make us have to get another roof even if it benefitted his company monetarily. Thanks again Mike!
