Short Version We recently moved into a 1920s home with a clay tile roof and discovered water damage in the master closet. The original sellers who promised to fix the roof leak used a general roofer who "fixed" the roof. Couple month later, we found mold and active leaks. Todco stood out with quick responses, cheapest quote, and great communication. Although they're under new management, the same experienced crew is still there. Paul, the foreman, explained everything clearly and did excellent work. They fixed the issue in three days and I've already booked them for more repairs. If you have a tile roof, I highly recommend Todco--they know their stuff and do it right. Long Version Todco doesn't have any recent comprehensive review, so I am going to chime in a long version. We recently moved into a historic district, where our 1920s home still has its original clay tile roof. When we bought the house, we noticed water damage in our master closet and asked the sellers to have the roof repaired. Unfortunately, they used a crappy general roofer who clearly had no experience with tile roofs. We thought the issue was resolved--our first big mistake. Three months later, we finally had a closet company come to fix our master closet. When they removed the damaged closet, we discovered a wet ceiling and significant mold growth. After some heavy rain, water was literally dripping from the ceiling. I reached out to the original roofer, who shrugged it off and said, "Tile roofs are tricky. You can't really find the leaks. You fix what looks broken--you just need a whole new roof." That didn't sit right with me, so I turned to our neighborhood group and learned that tile roofs require specialists. I contacted three companies recommended by neighbors, including Todco. Every single one gave me the same answer: I didn't need a new roof. The issue was likely due to poor flashing around the chimney and improperly installed tiles. Basically, the seller's roofer didn't fix anything and had no idea what he was doing. Many neighbors vouched for Todco, so I reached out. Haris responded quickly and was incredibly personable. He made me feel like fixing our roof was a top priority. He sent an estimator out right away, and their quote was the cheapest of the three. All the glowing neighborhood reviews were about the owner, Todd but I found out Haris is the new owner/manager (not sure which but was informed Todd has taken a step back but still involved). I couldn't find any reviews about the new management and everyone I reached out to was with prior management. I was hesitant to sign, so I reached out to a neighbor, who contacted Todd for me. I even texted Todd directly. Shortly after, Haris called me to explain the transition and assured me the same experienced crew--Paul and Candelario--was still with them. That gave me the confidence to move forward. And I'm so glad I did. Paul, the foreman, was fantastic. He showed me the poor design of the flashing and the patch that gave out in the flashing. He walked me through the improvements they'd be making, and how the new flashing design was much more effective. The crew worked hard, kept me updated throughout the process, and completed the job in three days. They replaced the chimney flashing, installed new ice and rain shields, and re-tiled the affected area with care and precision. The work was excellent, and the crew was a pleasure to have around. Haris continued to follow up and support us throughout the process. I was so impressed that I've already booked Todco for a second job--to replace broken tiles elsewhere on the roof. I highly recommend Todco. They know tile roofs, and they take pride in doing things the right way. If you have a home with a roof, these are the people to call. read more

Todco recently repaired the slate roof on my 100 year old house in Evanston. Several random shingles were out of place and crooked. New copper flashing needed to be installed around the chimney. Paul from Todco repaired it all. He also painted some wood trim on the roof that could only be reached by hooking a ladder over the slates, in a place a normal painter could not reach without stepping on and probably breaking slates. Paul was the foreman on this job. I can't say more about how lucky I was to have Paul work for me. He searched for slates which needed to be repaired and repaired them all beautifully. He took the time to explain what needed to be done and what was not needed to be done and WHY. When I need roofing repairs done again in the future, I would hire Todco again in an instant. True professionals. And of course their cost was very reasonable and per their original quote. Thank you Todco, Mike D. read more

Todco Roofing - Todco roofing - Roofing Near Me - Oak Park, Illinois

got an O..L..D slate roof that needs upkeep...unfortunately had way too much experience in the last 15 years trying to find reliable roofing companies that do "natural materials" - a challenge, even in a major metro area w/lots of older homes. Wish I had more options - there are too few firms that do this type of work, and those that do are often booked up. Todco is a quality company doing solid work. Really 3.5 stars. Todd is always professional, prompt, courteous, and a clear communicator. Pricing is never cheap, but I feel like he's trying to be as fair as possible. read more

We have a 1920s clay tile roof (green) and we've used Todco a few times now to fix different areas of the roof. They've replaced all the old copper flashing with new, relayed the entire sections with an addition row of clay tile, and added gutter to a section. In the process they replaced the ice and water shield as well as old rotted wood underneath. The owner and the installers are true professionals and Jordan has extensive knowledge with clay tiles. We have more leaks popping up in new areas and plan to keep using them. I would highly recommend Todco if you have a clay tile or slate roof project, they will not disappoint! read more

This company is the BEST there is for slate & tile roofs with copper gutter systems! We have been using company for many years to maintain and make repairs on our 105 year old slate roof. The men really know their business. Todco succeeded in building a wonderful copper roof covered in black rubber for our little 2nd floor balcony. Other roofers had failed to make a leak-proof roof on this balcony -- we have had absolutely no leakage into the pantry area below the balcony since Todco constructed it about 10 years ago. They do lovely work. I highly recommend this company to anyone with a specialty roof. read more
