Highest-rated roofers in Illinois

109 Illinois roofing companies on the National Roofing Directory have a Google rating of 4.5 or higher from at least 20 Google reviews. These are the 10 with the most reviews, since a high rating from many customers says more than a perfect score from a few.

Does a roofer need a license in Illinois?

Yes. Illinois licenses roofing contractors at the state level, so a roofer should be able to give you a license number. Look the number up yourself; a photo of a license card doesn't show it is current. The National Roofing Directory's Illinois roofing license rules page has the details. You can check a credential with the state authority before anyone starts work.

Illinois storm season and your roof

Illinois's peak severe-weather season is April–July. The roof damage it brings mostly comes from straight-line wind, hail, tornadoes and winter storms (snow load).

NOAA's Storm Events Database records 11,307 county-level severe-weather events in Illinois from 2016 to 2026, including 959 tornadoes and 2,527 hail reports of an inch or larger. Cook County has the most on record, with 864.

After a big storm, roofing offers at the door pick up. The FTC's advice after a weather emergency is to confirm a contractor's license and insurance before any work starts. The directory's Illinois storm center shows any National Weather Service alert active there now.
