J&B just completed a full Torch Down Rubber Roof installation on our Wicker Park commercial building. After getting three estimates, their transparent pricing and 15-year warranty made the decision easy.
The crew arrived exactly when promised and worked efficiently even in typical Chicago wind. They explained every step of the torch application process and cleaned up perfectly each day. What impressed me most was their attention to detail around HVAC penetrations and drainage – critical for flat roofs in our harsh Midwest climate.
Excellent communication throughout the project. Definitely calling them again for our other properties.
Our Logan Square flat roof was leaking badly after that brutal March storm hit Chicago. Water was dripping into our kitchen ceiling, and I was panicking about mold damage.
Called J&B after seeing their truck in our neighborhood, and Mike came out the same day for a free estimate. His crew knew exactly what they were doing with the Torch Down Rubber Roof repair – explained how Chicago’s freeze-thaw cycles had compromised the seams. They used high-quality EPDM materials and finished the job in two days despite the cold weather. Fair pricing, professional work, and no more leaks!
I highly recommend J&B for anyone in Chicago needing reliable flat roofing contractors.
Finally found a trustworthy flat roofing contractor in Chicago! Our Bucktown building’s rubber roof was 20 years old and showing its age.
J&B’s team assessed the situation thoroughly and recommended partial replacement rather than trying to sell us a complete tear-off we didn’t need – that honesty won me over. Their Torch Down Rubber Roof work is top-notch, and they handled the city permits without any hassle.
Finished on time, on budget, and haven’t had a single issue through two winters now. If you’re searching for “Torch Down Rubber Roof Chicago,” stop looking and call J&B!
On average, 15 to 20 years, depending on installation quality and ongoing maintenance.
Yes, when installed by licensed contractors using proper equipment and fire safety practices. We also offer cold-applied alternatives when needed.
Absolutely. We offer patching, seam re-sealing, and surface restoration to extend your roof’s life.
It depends. Torch-down roofing offers strong impact resistance and layered durability. EPDM is more flexible in cold climates, and TPO is more reflective for energy savings.
