What Big Toms Roofing Handles in Wilmette

Whether it's an emergency leak at 2am or a planned replacement you've been putting off, Big Toms Roofing brings the same certified crew and the same upfront pricing to every Wilmette job.

01

24/7 Emergency Roof Repair

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 Wilmette 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

Flat & Low-Slope Commercial Roofing

Commercial roofs fail differently than residential ones β€” ponding water, seam separation, and membrane wear don't always show up until there's a leak on the sales floor below. Our Wilmette commercial division services TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen, and built-up roofing systems on retail, industrial, and multi-family properties.

Preventive Roof Maintenance in Wilmette

Buying or selling a home in Wilmette? A pre-purchase roof inspection gives you real leverage in negotiations and peace of mind about what you're actually buying β€” no guessing about remaining roof life.

Flashing, Gutters & Attic Ventilation

Poor attic ventilation cooks shingles from underneath and can void manufacturer warranties. Our Wilmette crews balance intake and exhaust ventilation to extend the life of your Roof Repair system and lower attic temperatures in summer.

"We had a leak show up during a storm at night and I honestly didn't expect anyone to answer the phone. Big Toms Roofing had a crew tarping our roof within a couple hours and came back two days later to do the real repair. Can't recommend them enough."

"The estimate they gave us matched the final invoice exactly, which after two other quotes from companies that kept adding line items, was a relief. Crew was professional and cleaned up better than I expected."
