When it comes to roofing, hassle-free + high-quality is rare--but RK Roofing nailed it for us. We used them for a full roof replacement and gutters on my parents' house, and from start to finish, they stood out from every other company we contacted. Proposal & Pricing * Jerry (the owner) personally reached out--no hoops, no "call me first" homework * Quick, no-hassle estimate dropped right in our mailbox * Best price compared to multiple bids, with quality shingles and clear coverage outlined Communication * Jerry was always prompt on emails and calls * Easy process to select shingle and gutter colors * $500 deposit to lock in a full roof job--straightforward and fair Workmanship * Crew arrived on schedule, worked efficiently, and left the property clean * Professional and respectful throughout the project * Any extra costs (like replacing rotten plywood decking) were billed exactly as specified in the estimate--no surprises Overall Experience * Honest, transparent, and incredibly easy to work with * Final costs aligned with the original estimate Verdict RK Roofing delivers the best mix of price, quality, and hassle-free experience. If you need roofing or gutters in the Chicago suburbs (we're in Elk Grove Village, they're based in Bensenville), this is the company to call. Highly recommended. read more

He was paid to tear off the old roof, and put an new one on -- per the contract. When water started leaking in a bedroom closet he claimed he did not do that roof. Eventually, he said he only reshingled it, and admitted that flat roofs are not in his skill set. He would not have been hired had he said at any point that he cannot and does not know how to do flat roofs. At no point did he state that he was only putting shingles on the flat roof, nor that he would in anyway handle it differently. Further, nothing on the contract says such. He claimed "it does not say entire roof". When a partial refund was requested, he said he would wait till he's served-- boasting that a lawsuit will take a year. A few days after they finished with the roof, he was called back because something was visibly wrong with the back part. He admitted that they could have done a better job, and had them come back out to supposedly fix it. He literally said "it doesn't say entire roof" and could yet couldn't understand why I was yelling. Who would hire someone to do anything and expect that they only do half of it because it doesn't specify "entire". read more

RK Roofing did a great job replacing our old shingles with Owens Corning duration shingles (midnight plumb). Easy to work with, great communication, clean site and his workers were fantastic to work with through the entire project.

Very, very happy with R K Roofing. From the initial contact through the removal/installation I felt valued as a customer because of the professionalism and good communication from Jerry the owner and team. Greg, the site foreman, was a talented craftsman with obvious experience. Also talented was his partner. They were a very efficient, and clean team that worked so well together. They had no problem answering all of my questions along the way. Sometimes I felt like I was intruding (to myself) but they never made me feel that way. I am very impressed. The office staff was always friendly and Jerry called me to checkin on the project and make sure we were happy with everything. My wife and I will be using them for another garage project very soon. You wont be disappointed using R K. read more

R.K Roofing was great to work with for roofing. They did an excellent job for the best price. I saw work from other companies double the cost but the outcome didn't meet anywhere near the price they were asking for. R.K Roofing meet both expectations with such professionalism. Loved working with Jerry. Everyone was great! I was able to get the style of roofing with excellent installation for an unbelievable price. read more

I contacted R.K. Roofing to ask them to help with some minor roof repairs (gutters, vent stack pipe) and to ask them to assess the current condition of the roof. At every step of the way Jerry was responsive, communicative, and honest. He gave me an honest assessment of the roof's remaining life and didn't at all try to pressure me into any unneeded work - he and his crew also identified a small leak near one of the attic vents that could have become a much bigger problem and fixed it professionally and affordably. I will definitely go with R.K. Roofing again for my future roofing needs - no problems whatsoever, just a straightforward, positive experience from start to finish. read more

Not sure why Yelp thinks I'm in CA - job was in Roselle, IL... I needed a good sized roof redone and a chimney surround replaced. Had quotes from 6 companies - RK Roofing was about mid range relative to the quoted cost for the job. Jerry was by far the most professional of the owners I dealt with during the quoting process - like in the "old days" when people took pride in their work. The crew that did the work was professional, knowledgeable, and honestly treated my home and the site like it was their own. They did not rush, paid attention to details, and left the place spotless after each day. The tearoff job was not a small task and I literally could not find a single piece of scrap or nail anywhere. Amazing. Considering today's costs and the difficultly in finding quality contractors - Jerry and the crew were well worth every penny. Thanks Jerry! read more

We had a great experience with RK Roofing. The owner, Jerry, was very responsive over both email and telephone, and worked with us when we needed to submit additional paperwork to our insurance company (we needed a roof replacement following serious tree damage). His team worked quickly but were also very careful (we have young kids who were going in and out of the house while they worked). They also did a great job cleaning up each day after they were done. Would definitely recommend! read more

They have done a wonderful job. Showed up on time, worked fast and efficient. They addressed all the issues that were discovered as they worked. Very punctual, professional, courteous and affordable. read more

We had excellent service. I would recommend this company to my friends and family. They are very pleasant and go the extra mile to make sure everything is right. They are very thorough on the clean up too. Thanks Guys! read more

Jerry was very transparent from the start with an incredibly quick quote. I was kept up to date on all scheduling and work being complete. They were adaptive to some suprise weather, and worked hard to get the job complete once they could resume. Would not hesitate to recommend! read more

I found R K Roofing online as I had some damage to my roof from a wind storm. I called Jerry on a Friday and he came out on the following Monday to provide an estimate. The damage to the roof was in need of immediate repair as there was snow being forcast in the next couple of days. Jerry made sure that he had his crew come out ASAP on Christmas Eve to provide temporary repairs before the snow arrived. While waiting for the snow to melt Jerry made sure that he was able to find roofing to match my existing roof and came back out to replace all the damaged roofing with the matching color. Jerry and his crew did a great job and I would recommend R K Roofing to anyone looking for roof repairs/replacement. Great job Jerry, thank you. read more

Jerry and his team were so easy to deal with. Jerry responded promptly to all emails, gave me a good estimate and scheduled a time for the work. The guys showed up on time, explained everything they were doing and worked very quickly. They didn't need to do all of the work I was quoted for and I didn't even have to bring up the price. Jerry called me and said they won't be charging me the full amount, since they didn't need to do everything. It's hard to find this type of honest help and I'm glad I found Jerry and gave his team a shot. I'll be calling back for future roof work. read more

These guys are great! They came out twice to look at my roof - called ahead, were VERY thorough, and actually acted like they were concerned about my roof. I dealt with Jarek who is a really nice guy. I will be using them for my future roofing needs and I highly recommend them. read more

I was referred to RK Roofing and Jerry by a local electrician for installation of roof de-icing cables because he had heard so many great things from his own customers. Jerry was extremely communicative and responsive, answered all of my questions, and promptly did a terrific job. I wouldn't hesitate to come back to Jerry for any other roofing needs. Thanks! read more

always get great service from RK ..we had them for a few projects now and they always do a great job.. their price is fair and they always explain in detail what you need ahead of time .. they also leave the site clean ... we are very happy with them and will use them again if needed for all future roofing problems read more

From our initial consultation, I had a good feeling about R K Roofing. I found Jerry honest and straightforward, gave good advice and he did not pressure us with a sales pitch. We received a good price and signed contract before Christmas. His crew arrived when the weather broke in March. They did an excellent job, 2 guys here for 2 1/2 days, new roof installation. Our neighbors have commentated on how hard they worked and how conscientious they were. Cleaned up every evening. Thank you Jerry and crew, highly recommended. read more

Had complete roof repaired and was very happy with new roof. Crew of three completed the installation over two days and work completed was excellent. Seemed to work good as a crew and were well organized and thorough in their work. Clean up was excellent after both days that the work was done. Jerry, the owner, also was very helpful in preparing roof so that solar system could be installed later and very cordial in working with the solar people and in coming up with and completing the work to fit with the requirements of a solar system. Very happy with work completed and would hire again. Have used RK roofing two times previously and have been very happy with the work that was done. read more

We definitely recommend RK Roofing! We were referred to them by our brother-in-law who used them a few years ago and was happy. We contacted Jerry just before the winter when we had some leaks in our roof. Jerry gave us a great price and he uses a high quality Owens Corning shingle, not a cheap one, so we decided to hire them to do our roof. Since winter was starting, Jerry sent out his guys to look for the leaks and patch the leaking areas to get us through the winter, which helped. We had no leaks in the winter. Jerry communicated with us regularly during the winter and before the spring to stay in touch and to schedule the job. We did have to reschedule a couple of times due to rain. But then at the next weekend that was good for me and my husband, RK came out and completed our roof in less than two days. He did say that the cost did not include replacing any plywood that may be needed, but they wouldn't know until after they removed the old roof. To be honest, I wondered if that was going to be a way for them to add more to the total cost and increase his price, BUT there were only a few small spots that needed repaired (my husband checked and made sure) and only a few dollars were added to our bill, which I was fine with! This means he was upfront and honest and did not have "hidden costs." His guys were very nice, both the guys who came before winter to check in our attic to find the leaks, and the guys who came to do the job. And when people on this review say they left the job site immaculate, they weren't kidding! There were no shingles or nails, and they carefully moved and replaced our deck furniture. We did wonder if his good price was "too good to be true," or "you get what you pay for," but neither of those are true with RK. We are very happy with the workmanship and professionalism of both Jerry and his guys. Oh, and I never thought I would care either way how a roof looks, but ours looks so nice! If any of my friends or neighbors need a roof replaced, we are going to recommend RK Roofing in a heartbeat! Thanks Jerry! read more

Awesome job They were the cheapest quote I got, so I was a little skeptical. But then I looked at their reviews on Angies List. Every review was positive, so I hired them., I could not have been more satisfied. I will hire them again in a second for my next project. The owner Jerry is professional and reasonable, and he even worked with me on the final price since my project ended up being a little more than expected since we found mold in my attic during the project. Great experience. read more

This contractor is ok for doing the job. But when your roof leaks and ruins your ceiling. He is not responsive. He says he will fix it and then after several months of dragging his feet. He sends people to paint over the damage and even they would not paint over it saying it needs replacement. He tells me to get bids and when I do. He says it's an act of god and I should call my homeowners insurance. He seems to be out of the country frequently also. Beware of this company. Then he just quits answering his e mail or phone. read more

I got 3 quotes to tear-off and replace my roof and RK's was the most competitive (as a single mother I don't have much cash to spare). They did an EXCELLENT job and I would recommend them to anyone. Jerry had to deal with my townhome association which is not an easy task - they only allow one type of shingle and require a very detailed proposal before issuing a permit. The guys who did the actual work were also very friendly and accommodating (at one point they had to move their truck and equipment so a carpet cleaner could get in through the garage). I could not be more satisfied with my first major repair purchase (other than the house itself)! read more

This is the second project I have done with R.K. Roofing. Needless to say, I can't be more happy with the way the project turned out. The professionalism Jerry and his crew showed to our home is beyond what customer service should be. A few years ago, we had a roof issue with a detached garage at a rental property. He completed the work quickly and we were very happy with the finished product. When it came time to do our home, there was no other choice. R.K. Roofing was the ONLY choice. Jerry discussed options and his guidance was beyond helpful. The home looks so fresh and updated we can not be more happy! Jerry's crew arrived on time, were highly efficient and very conscious of what needed to be done. They corrected matters that were not on the original scope of the project. The chimney needed to be completely restructured. Two of our vents (bathroom and kitchen) were not properly vented. These matters were corrected right away and were done seamlessly with the rest of the roof. To make matters even better, they allowed me to join them on the roof to explain what issues needed to be fixed and showed me how they would be amended. We are beyond thankful for Jerry and his crew. Their prices can not be beat and customer service is above all expectations. Look no further. R.K. Roofing will not disappoint. Thank you Jerry! read more
