Roofs in Inverness: What We See
Inverness is a village of large wooded lots and custom-built homes, many dating from the 1960s onward. Big footprints mean big roofs: multiple valleys, dormers, skylights and steep pitches, and some homes still have cedar shake.
Estate homes have large, complex roofs with many valleys, hips, dormers, skylights and steep pitches. Every additional penetration and valley is a place that needs careful flashing, and the roof has to be planned before work begins. Some homes still have cedar shake, which needs a specialist’s eye. Its condition, fire-rating questions and whether to stay with cedar or move to a high-end shingle are all part of the conversation.
Large estate roofs shed a lot of water into a small number of corners and valleys. Oversized gutters, large downspouts and planned drainage away from the foundation are standard.
Roofing Permits in Inverness
Building permits in Inverness are issued by the Village of Inverness (Village Hall, 1400 Baldwin Road, Inverness, IL 60067). We confirm what each job needs with the village and pull the permit whenever one is required.
Illinois law requires roofing contractors to hold a State of Illinois roofing license before a village that requires a permit can issue one.

Weather and Roofs in Inverness
Between summer thunderstorms with hail, strong winds that lift shingle edges, and winter ice dams at the eaves, roofs in the northwest suburbs take more abuse than the age on the paperwork suggests.
Spring storms, fall leaves and winter ice all test gutters in the northwest suburbs. Correct sizing, pitch and fastening are what keep them working through all four seasons.
How We Work on Inverness Roofs
Every Inverness job starts with an inspection of the roof surface and, where we can get in, the attic. We photograph what we find, explain whether it’s a repair or a replacement, and put it in a written estimate. On the day of the job we protect landscaping and the driveway, set up safety equipment and keep the site organized. At the end we run magnetic sweeps for nails and walk the finished work with you.
Ice and water shield is a self-adhering membrane that seals around nails. It goes at the eaves to protect against ice dams, in the valleys, and around chimneys and other penetrations. Synthetic underlayment covers the rest of the deck as a second line of defense. When warm attic air melts snow on the upper roof, the water refreezes at the cold eaves and forms a dam. Meltwater backs up behind it and works under the shingles. Ice and water shield at the eaves protects the deck, and good attic ventilation and insulation stop the melting that causes the dam in the first place.
