Roof Maintenance Reduces Overall Costs & Extends Lifespan
Because roofs sit out of sight, homeowners often skip routine upkeep—even though they service furnaces, A/C units, and yards on schedule. Your roof deserves equal, if not greater, attention: it shields your family and preserves the value of your largest investment.
In Northwest Illinois and Northeast Iowa, roofs endure relentless rain, snow, heat, cold, hail, and falling branches. Dirt accumulates, shingles wear down, and minor punctures invite leaks. Neglect accelerates structural damage, safety risks, and expensive repairs while undercutting property value.
Regular maintenance keeps your roof sound, maximizes its lifespan, and protects your home’s structural integrity.
6 Benefits of Maintaining Your Roof
Prevents Water Damage
Regular maintenance catches weather-induced wear—leaks, rot, mold, and structural damage—early, preventing costly repairs and preserving your home.
Improves Efficiency
Intact ventilation and insulation reduce heat gain in summer and heat loss in winter, lowering HVAC workload and utility bills.
Protects from Weather
Regular roof maintenance ensures that minor issues are promptly spotted and repaired before they escalate into major problems.
Structural Integrity
A sound roof prevents rot in decking and framing, avoiding sagging rafters, weakened trusses, or even collapse in severe cases.
Preserves Property Value
A well-kept roof looks sharp during real-estate showings and passes inspections easily, supporting a higher resale price and smoother closing.
Extends the Lifespan
Routine roof inspections and maintenance help identify and address potential issues early so they don’t become more serious problems later which can severely shorten the useful lifespan of your residential roof.

Roof Replacement
Great workmanship. House & garage done in 1 day. Everything was cleaned up after.. We highly recommend them.
Roof Replacement
Had my roof, gutters, & skylight replaced—couldn’t be happier! The team was professional, efficient, and detail-oriented.
Storm Damage
Storm damage hit us. Elevated arrived next morning & guided us through everything with great communication. His crew finished our house, garage, & small building in 1 day!
The people in this outfit are some serious pros from the office staff to their field personnel. One of their foremen “JT” was especially helpful throughout the process. They did a clean job front to back on a large roof in one day!!
The entire process was smooth and pleasant. From the estimate, to the timely coordination for the job with Erika and Simon. JT greeted me this morning and discussed the plan and then the crew arrived and they went to work to replace my aging double roof. Simon provided updates via email with pics to show the damage found. And then another update when repairs to roof deck were completed. JT and his crew had all the work completed and cleaned up before 1PM, which in itself was pretty amazing. Before JT left, we did a final inspection and I must say the results are incredible. I will gladly recommend Elevated and their team! 😀👍
Highly recommend Elevated Roofing! We requested quotes from several companies and the team at Elevated Roofing was the most professional and communicative by far!

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are you licensed and insured?
Yes, we are fully licensed, bonded, and insured in Illinois 104.019255, Iowa C147349, and Wisconsin DC-022300173.
You don’t want a fly-by-night contractor that, in many cases, leaves your roof in worse condition than it was or just takes the down payment and runs. We are happy to provide proof of insurance, licensing, and references.
- Does my roof need to be repaired or replaced?
The best way to determine if your roof needs repairs or a full replacement is with a professional inspection. We assess your roof’s condition and provide the most practical solution that fits your budget and long-term needs.
If your roof is nearing the end of its lifespan, replacing it is often the more cost-effective option rather than making repeated repairs.
For storm-damaged roofs, insurance companies typically require repairs if less than 30% of the roof is affected. If the damage exceeds 30%, they will likely recommend a full replacement to ensure long-term protection.
- How long will my roof last?
The life expectancy of CertainTeed asphalt shingle roofs varies based on the type of shingle:
- Strip Shingles (3-Tab) – Typically last 20-25 years, depending on climate and maintenance. These are the most affordable but have the shortest lifespan.
- Architectural Shingles (Dimensional/Laminate) – Expected to last 25-30 years, with some premium lines lasting up to 40 years. These offer better durability and wind resistance.
- Luxury Shingles (Designer/Premium) – Can last 30-50 years, thanks to their heavyweight construction and superior materials. These provide the highest durability, impact resistance, and curb appeal.
The life expectancy of other types of roofs ranges widely:
- Metal roofs last 40-70 years
- Wood (cedar shake shingles) last 20-40 years
- Slate roofs last 75+ years
Proper installation, ventilation, and routine maintenance can help maximize the lifespan of any roof.
- How can I be sure I’m choosing the right contractor?
Here’s how to make the best choice:
- Get multiple quotes – Aim for at least three estimates from reputable contractors. If a quote is significantly lower, they may be cutting corners. If it’s too high, they could be overcharging.
- Check reputation & reviews – Look for customer testimonials, online reviews, and local references to ensure the company has a solid track record.
- Verify licensing & insurance – A trustworthy contractor should be licensed, insured, and able to provide proof upon request.
- Look for professionalism – A legitimate contractor typically has branded trucks, uniforms, and a well-organized process for handling your project.
- Assess communication & trust – Go with a company that answers your questions clearly, explains your options, and makes you feel comfortable and confident in your decision.
A great roofing contractor should offer quality work, transparency, and reliability—not just the lowest price. Do your research and choose wisely!
