I had a leak that I thought was fixed by another company years ago reappear recently, so I called Chicago Star Roofing. Peter immediately answered and we set up a time in a couple days for him to stop by and take a look. He was on time and even let me know what time within the hour window he'd be arriving which was really great. He was able to identify the source of the water intrusion within seconds, and his team started working the next morning (on a Sunday!). They did a full tear off replacement underneath a balcony and installed new decking for me as well. Very quick, very respectful, and very thorough. I will absolutely be using Chicago Star Roofing again! read more

Chicago star arrived the same day and fixed my roof before a snow! I'll recommend them to my friends

Is very professional company. Very affordable. Very good price, good people and fast service. 100 % recomendado

We had damage on our roof causing leaking into our upstairs. Peter was able to come out for an inspection swiftly and provide multiple options for how we could address the issue and what we could consider to the future. After repair, he was able to identify weak points on our dormers and able to come back the next day to make the additional repairs. Peter was great at explaining our options, was honest in his assessment and provided great value for very high quality work. He was transparent as issues came up during the repairs and made us comfortable to make decisions on how to address those items. Would highly recommend anyone to reach out to Chicago Star for any roof and exterior repair! read more

Peter and the team were quick to reply, fast to evaluate and efficient at making the necessary seals on my roof. Great work and affordable

Efficient and quick to respond. I was pleased with the quality of work, communication and follow up. We had a roof leak and they were able to identify and resolve within hours during challenging winter weather. Very happy and would certainly use again. read more

Peter and the Chicago Star Roofing team are excellent and I would use them again. Responsive and worked quickly which honestly is unusual anymore. They weren't the lowest cost provider but they got the job done and completed on time and I am happy to pay a premium for quality work. Would recommend. Thanks team!! read more

Had a few leaks in my 3 flat roof so I called Chicago Star roofing and Kelly came out to inspect the roof. Kelly's bid se3med competitive so I hired him to re do the entire roof with a written guarantee. A couple days later the work was complete and I couldn't be more pleased with how quick, responsive and how kelly kept me informed on every aspect as we went along. I highly recommend Chicago star roofing read more

Our condo association was lucky enough to find Chicago Star Roofing after the roofing company that installed our new roof stopped answering our calls and disappeared altogether. We cannot say enough good things about Kelly & the team at CSR. They are always there when we need them and they address our issues quickly at a fair price. CSR is both professional & skilled and having a company this we can count on is priceless :) read more

*Update after business owners response* I was absolutely aware of the work that had been quoted. I had the quote, I helped coordinate what needed doing. The business owner is claiming they told us it would cost more and gave us a choice, but this is inaccurate. He was on site on the day and told me they should have consulted us before proceeding with the lesser work. They only spoke to anyone after stating the work. I'm absolutely convinced they would have completed the work (poorly) and taken our money had I not got there to see what a terrible job they were doing. Either way, the work they were doing was not adequate even if we had opted for it which we did not. *end of update* I'm very aware the business can reply to these reviews. I'll outline exactly what happened and you can decide for yourself if you want to use them. We wanted a flat roof surface replacing. We were very specific that we wanted it striping down to the concrete underneath; the existing roof surface taking away and completely replacing with new. This company came to do the work and from photos I was sent it was very clear they were not removing the existing roof surface. I had someone in my building go and talk to them and they reassured her they were removing the existing surface. So I returned home to look at it, they were not removing the old roof surface, they were trying to stick new rubber over the existing which had sort of shingle on it so it wouldn't even stick properly and they'd not even ran it up to the termination bar. When challenged; the manager tried to tell me what they were doing was standard, (despite the fact we had a quote that specifically said they would haul away the old roof surface) then he changed course and said they had realized there was stuff under the roof surface and it would be more costly to do that so rather than tell us and give us a choice they opted to do less work and he claimed they were going to charge us less. Anyway, I had them stop work and leave and they did refund us. What they had done so far didn't even drain to the drain so it wouldn't have worked even if we let them continue. The next company that came out to look took one look at what was left of their work and laughed and said it was terrible and we now have a reputable company that has done the job correctly. read more

Great job. Great to work with. Highly knowledgeable and worked with us on short and long term plan for our roof.

Good luck having them show up on time for a estimate 2 days I wasted they never showed up!!! Called kelly rescheduled but again never showed up !! read more

This company stepped in to take over a job from another contractor. They agreed to honor the original contractor's price, which was competitive, and they did the work quickly and professionally, finishing up right before a massive winter storm! Very easy to work with, and very responsive. I highly recommend them. read more

My roof started leaking so badly that the ceilinf was collapsing in one of my rooms and we were getting a lot of rain. I had neglected my roof the whole time I owned my home. A new roof is a big investment and times are tight. I asked two friends for recommendations and they both told me to call Star. I also saw the great ratings on Yelp. I did call one other company and they didn't get back to me. This happened during a busy time for roof repair. Star got back to me right away. They sent a clear estimate which was just a little over the max of what I was able to pay. They worked to bring the price down a little and into my range. They were very quick to evaluate my roof and send me detailed options. When I decided for a totally new roof, they scheduled it right away. They came out and worked like champs in the middle of a heat wave. The roof looks great and my leaks are done. They gave me a 35 year guarantee that will transfer to a new owner when I sell my house. I strongly recommend them. The entire crew was extremely professional and also personable. Their work is excellent. read more

We had some leaking from a skylight. I called and they responded very quickly and came out to inspect and give us a quote within a few days. They fixed the issue two days later. Fast and good communication. Would definitely use them again. read more

Did not show up nor call for a consultation on our gutter issue - very unprofessional, will not be using them.

Very professional and friendly, and the work was high quality. Would recommend to friends and use again.

I recently needed an emergency roof repair and contacted a few companies for the job. After receiving ridiculous quotes for issues that wouldn't take care of the emergency, I contacted Chicago Star Roofing. Kelly and his crew showed up the same day, correctly diagnosed the issue, and offered a reasonable quote to take care of it. It's rained a few days after the job was completed and I haven't noticed my roof leaking anymore. Thank you, I highly recommend these guys. read more

Our gutter cleaner discovered some issues with our porch roof and gutters. This company came out and fixed everything and cleaned up afterwards. Very easy to deal with. They showed me from outside on the ground and also with close-up photos what they repaired. I am eager for the next rain to see the improvement!!! read more

John from Chicago Star came out the next day to provide an estimate for work at my house. The quote they provided was very reasonable and I provided a deposit for the work. They completed the work in the next couple of days and it looked fantastic. I would highly recommend them for any type of work, they are professional, reliable and very courteous. Do yourself a favor and do work with Chicago Star you wont be disappointed. read more

I have had a slow leak from the deck above the kitchen and it began to trickle in during heavy rains. Guys came by to provide a free estimate and quickly pointed out some holes in the seams of the roof under the deck. Scheduling was very easy and flexible.

Kelly provided an accurate quote within 24 hours of reaching out to Chicago Star Roofing. After looking at other options, we went with Chicago Star based on price and customer responsiveness. Two weeks later, we are still very happy with our decision. The team finished the project over one weekend and took pictures of their great work. read more

We hired Chicago Star Roofing to replace the roof on our 5 unit condo building. Kelly was very responsive to my messages. The time between us signing the contract to hire them for the job and completion of the job was less than a week. They even brought out 2 crews to finish the job in one day because rain was forecasted for the following day. I found this company to be professional and responsive. read more

I've worked with Kelley and John twice now. They're a little more expensive then competitive bids, but they've always been responsive and reliable. I'd call them for anything on or around my roof. We had a leak in the dormer above our bedroom last December. They came out fast. The contractors tore off and replaced the dormer quickly and cleanly. They had to work in our neighbor's yard so I was worried about a mess, but they left nothing behind. Today they helped with facia and gutters. They replaced and repaired as needed quickly as ever. I had concerns about the work and they came right back to make it right. read more

One word of advice: Get multiple quotes to reduce the price Chicago star roofing gives you! They charge the highest prices I've seen for some of the lowest quality work. We relied on Chicago Star Roofing to repair the membrane in our roof. They were very kind in their communications and fast. However, we later found out that what they quoted us was embarrassingly high for the time and effort put in. We paid $8K for what we thought was an intense task. Yet the workers were here for UNDER 2.5 hours of work, some of which had to be redone by a contractor later because it was so poorly done. They even added in a $750 dollar charge for sealant that cost them $20 on amazon. If we had paid under $2K perhaps the speed would have been worth it but for that price, I would stay away. read more

I thought long and hard before giving a negative review, especially in these difficult times. I have a roof leak near my chimney. They were first to respond and they completed their work on time. Unfortunately, during the next downpour some months later, the leak was still there. To their credit, they came out again. They diagnosed a leak around my chimney flashing and recaulked around it for free. It rained again and, you guessed it, same leak. I called and emailed. We went back and forth for a while about scheduling. No response to my last email. They have been cordial and initial response was quick. I know that this is a frustrating position for a company. Bottom line is that my wallet is $3750 lighter and I still have a leaky roof. read more

In December 2019, I was relocated to California but my home in Chicago needed chimney repair and flashing installed due to leakage into my den. I researched chimney repair and flashing through YELP reviews. After many estimates, research, telephone conversations, and negotiations, I decided to TRUST KELLY of CHICAGO STAR ROOFING to repair my chimney through rebuilding, tuckpointing, and the installation of flashing so that the rain water and snow melt off will 'slide' off the roof and not into my home. WELL...the price was $5,000 and though I thought it was pricey, he gained my trust and HIS reviews on YELP were unmatched. Though I was in California, KELLY assured me that the job would be done on time, professionally, and with diligence and care. Now, he was DONE in a day and I was happy about that! He DID send a picture and honestly, I did not know how it SHOULD look (my first time dealing with chimney issues) so it looked 'better than it did' so I thought OK. Now..due to COVID, I had to return home in March 2020. I subsequently had NEW gutters installed and that is when I was able to have a good look..UGH!!! The chimney is done with a sloppy hand and the concrete is oozing out like melted ice cream. The tucking is uneven and an absolute mess. The flashing is even worse. It is NOT even FLASHING but a hunk of brown metal attached to possibly COVER UP part of the chimney base that needed to be REPAIRED!! (A repair that I paid 5K for!!) It appears as though SOMEONE did not 'feel like' doing as such and this was a QUICK temporary 'non-solution!' It is warped and not adhered to the foundation of the chimney. There needs to be a metal piece that is attached to the 'brown thing' alongside the chimney that will ALLOW the water to SLIDE (NOT ACCUMULATE) down to the ground below. The aesthetics of the entire job is subpar as you can tell from the pictures. Once I was able to gage the actual inconsistency of the 'WORK' done, I contacted KELLY in tears!!! HE said that he would send someone out cause he was ill. Well..this took awhile for someone to come out and when he did, he looked UP from the STREET and said that it WAS warped due to the COLD!??? HUH??? Masonry should not warp due to the cold..that's absolutely ridiculous!!! He said that he would 're-do' it. Now, why re-do it IF you think it was done RIGHT in the beginning? I wait for them to RE DO IT..nothing! I text KELLY on April 22 and told him that the work HAS to be done by MAY 22! He texted back that it would be "RE DONE' before that!!! On May 17, 2020, after 24 hours of ferocious rain..guess what I noticed in my den??? LEAKING from the chimney/flashing trickling onto the floor! THE VERY thing that I just paid 5,000 for KELLY to fix!!! It is May 21, 2020 and I have heard nothing!!!! The 'flashing' is warping more' and the job was simply not done by someone who knew what they were hired to do. I am attaching pictures of the job THEY did and a picture of the great flashing job done to my NEIGHBOR'S home. YOU SEE THE DIFFERENCE??? KELLY WAS nice, but I would rather someone be an A#$ and do a great job on the home that I love and have lived for 24 years:(!!! NOT HAPPY!!! Seeking restitution and SATISFACTION from a job that was shabbily done for 5K!!!!!!! read more

They were quick and came to the rescue on time and started quickly to fix the gutter on roof and the roof.

I had a sudden and large leak in the roof. They were the first company to quickly respond to our emergency inquiries. They came out, cleared off the roof, and patched it up. We had them return in nicer weather to finish fixing up the roof and to apply a reflective coating. We will be using them for roofing needs in the future. They provide warranty on their work. They are fairly priced. They do not try to over sell on unnecessary work. Wonderful people skills. Quick to respond to questions. They are professional, friendly, and timely! read more
