Our Services

What Big Toms Roofing Handles in Evanston

From a single missing shingle to a full tear-off, our Evanston crews handle every stage of roofing work with the same attention to detail β€” licensed, permitted, and cleaned up when we leave.

01

24/7 Emergency Roofing

A leak that starts as a small stain can rot decking and framing within weeks. Our emergency response teams treat every active-leak call in Evanston as urgent β€” temporary stabilization first, permanent fix scheduled right behind it.

02

Complete Tear-Off & Reroof

When patching stops making financial sense, a full tear-off and reroof resets the clock on your home. We strip old material down to the deck, replace any rotten sheathing, install proper underlayment and ice-and-water protection, and finish with a manufacturer-certified shingle or metal system backed by a real warranty.

03

Commercial Roofing Services

We work directly with property management companies and HOAs across Evanston to keep flat and low-slope roofs maintained on a predictable schedule, instead of waiting for emergency calls that disrupt business.

04

Preventive Roof Maintenance in Evanston

A lot of roof failures are preventable with a twice-a-year inspection catching lifted flashing or worn pipe boots before they turn into interior water damage. Our Evanston inspection service checks the field, flashing, penetrations, gutters, and attic ventilation, then hands you a written report with photos.

05

Flashing, Gutters & Attic Ventilation

A roof is only as good as the parts that direct water off it. We repair and replace step flashing, valley flashing, chimney flashing, and gutters that have pulled away from the fascia β€” small jobs that prevent big leaks down the road.

"Called around 9pm after a branch came through part of our roof and Big Toms Roofing actually picked up. They had someone out that night to stop the water and scheduled the repair for that week. That kind of response is rare."
