About
The business in short: the Elk Grove Village roofs we work on, how a job gets scoped and priced in writing, and the kinds of work we say no to.
An Elk Grove Village roofer whose quotes are built to be compared
Busse Woods Roofing works Elk Grove Village: replacement, repair, leak tracing, emergency cover, flat roof repair and storm repair, on a village whose homes were mostly built by one company and whose roofs run from Centex ranches to 1970s townhouse rows and 1990s condo buildings.
The site is built around what this village actually posts: people holding two estimates and looking for a third. Every quote here is itemized in the same lines, so it can be laid beside anyone else's and read across, and every figure on this site is an estimated range until the roof has been seen.
- Roofing only, no siding, windows or general remodeling
- No storm paperwork of any kind
- Elk Grove Village neighborhoods only
- No price without seeing the roof, and the attic where there is one
Four steps, no surprises
A written quote, line by line, built to sit beside the other two before any work starts.
Call with what you have
The address, what you are seeing, and any quotes you already hold.
Measure before any price
Squares measured, layers counted at an edge, the deck checked from the attic wherever there is access.
A quote in the same lines every time
Squares, layers off, decking per sheet, underlayment and ice barrier, flashing, ventilation, permit, cleanup and warranty, each priced on its own, with anything we could not see written as a condition.
The work, then the walkaround
Photographs before and after, every line on the quote checked off against the roof, and a walk around it with you before the final payment.
How to compare roofing quotes in Elk Grove Village, IL
Every one of these is checkable, and every one is on ours.
They measured before they priced
A quote with a square count was written by someone who measured the roof. A quote with only a total may have been written from the driveway.
They counted the layers
Stripping one layer and stripping two are different jobs. The quote should say how many were found and how.
They priced the deck per sheet
A per-sheet rate shows what soft decking will cost. A lump sum, or no line at all, leaves the real number for later.
They put the numbers on paper
The Illinois license number, the scope, the price and, on a replacement, the permit, all on a written quote.
