#1 Chicago General Contracting Contractor: Pegasus Construction

Chicago Roofing Experts

Premier Roofing in Chicago

Protect your home with durable roofing built for Chicago winters, ice dams, and storm season.

Exceptional Craftsmanship

Roofing Built for Chicago Homes

Your Home's First Line of Defense

Your roof takes the full force of Chicago’s weather — heavy snow loads, ice dams, hail, and hard winds off the lake. When it fails, everything beneath it is at risk. At Pegasus Construction, we install and restore roofs that stand up to it all, from asphalt shingles on bungalows to flat and low-slope roofs on classic two-flats and greystones. We pair quality materials with meticulous installation and proper ventilation for a roof that lasts.

What We Do

Roofing That Protects What Matters Most

Your Roof Project, Handled End to End

We manage your roof project from inspection to cleanup — assessing the deck, correcting ventilation, installing ice-and-water shield where Chicago winters demand it, and finishing with quality shingles or membrane. The result is a watertight, energy-smart roof built to last.

As a full design-build contractor, we handle storm-damage restoration and can coordinate with your insurance documentation, and we pair roofing with gutters, soffit, and fascia for a complete, weather-tight exterior.

Roofing Options

Roofing Systems Built for the Midwest

We install and help you choose the roofing systems that perform best on Chicago homes.

Architectural asphalt shingle roofing detail

Asphalt Shingle

The most popular choice for Chicago homes — durable, cost-effective, and available in architectural styles that boost curb appeal and resist wind.

Residential standing-seam metal roof

Metal Roofing

Long-lasting, low-maintenance, and excellent at shedding snow and ice — a premium option that performs beautifully in Chicago winters.

Flat low-slope membrane roof on a Chicago building

Flat & Low-Slope

Modern membrane systems for the flat and low-slope roofs found on Chicago’s two-flats and greystones, sealed against ponding and leaks.

Chicago Through & Through

Roofing Built for Chicago's Homes & Neighborhoods

We Know Chicago's Rooflines

Chicago’s housing stock is distinct — pitched asphalt roofs on bungalows across Portage Park and Jefferson Park, and the flat and low-slope roofs that top two-flats and greystones in Logan Square, Humboldt Park, and Ukrainian Village. Each calls for a different system, and we install the right one for your home.

Built for Ice Dams & Storm Season

Chicago’s freeze-thaw cycles create ice dams that force water under shingles, while summer brings hail and straight-line winds. We install ice-and-water shield, correct attic ventilation, and storm-resistant materials — and we handle hail and wind restoration, including documentation for insurance claims.

Permits & Chicago Building Code

We pull the required roofing permits with the Chicago Department of Buildings and ensure tear-offs, installation, and inspections meet local code — including any landmark or historic-district requirements.

Neighborhoods We Serve

From Lincoln Park, Lakeview, and Roscoe Village to Bucktown, Wicker Park, and Avondale — plus suburbs like Oak Park, Evanston, Skokie, Park Ridge, and Niles — Pegasus Construction is the roofer Chicago homeowners trust.

Good Questions

Roofing FAQs

How do I know if I need a new roof?

Common signs include shingles that are curling, cracked, or missing; granules in the gutters; leaks or attic water stains; and a roof past 20–25 years. We’ll inspect and give you an honest assessment.

What roofing materials do you install?

We work with architectural asphalt shingles, metal roofing, and flat/low-slope membrane systems — matching the right system to your home’s roofline and your budget.

Can you help with ice dams?

Yes. We address the root causes with proper attic ventilation, insulation, and ice-and-water shield along the eaves — the combination that prevents Chicago ice dams from forcing water under your roof.

Do you handle storm and hail damage and insurance claims?

We do. We inspect and document hail and wind damage and can work alongside your insurance process to restore your roof.

Do you install flat roofs on two-flats and greystones?

Yes — flat and low-slope membrane roofing is one of our specialties, sealed against the ponding and leaks common on older Chicago buildings.

Do you pull permits?

Yes — we manage all roofing permits and inspections with the Chicago Department of Buildings.

How long does a roof replacement take?

Most single-family roofs are completed in a few days, weather permitting. We’ll give you a clear schedule before we start.
