Roofs in Itasca: What We See
Itasca is a small village with an older residential core near the Metra station, 1960s and 1970s neighborhoods around it, and townhome communities near the business park along Irving Park Road.
Older homes near downtown often have steeper pitches, chimneys, dormers and original plank decking. Chimney flashing and soft spots in old boards are common findings. Homes from the 1960s and 1970s have usually been re-roofed at least once. The quality of that earlier work, from nailing and flashing to whether the old layers were removed, decides how today’s roof performs. Townhome and condominium associations often control shingle color and style, and attached buildings share roof sections, so the work has to be coordinated with the association and the neighbors.
Older homes near downtown often have deep eaves, original wood fascia and box gutters that have been covered over. What’s behind the existing gutter matters.
Roofing Permits in Itasca
Building permits in Itasca are issued by the Village of Itasca (Village Hall, 550 W. Irving Park Road, Itasca, IL 60143). 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 Itasca
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 Itasca Roofs
Every Itasca 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.
