Bungalows and two-flats are their own trade.
A Chicago brick bungalow’s low hipped roof, front dormer, and masonry chimney demand real flashing craft — that’s where they leak, decade after decade. Two-flats and three-flats add the classic combination: a pitched front over a flat rear roof, two systems that must be tied together correctly or the parapet joint becomes a permanent drip. We install shingle and membrane as one integrated job.
The city itself adds requirements — Chicago building permits, masonry parapets that need tuckpointing coordination — and after every major storm, out-of-state chasers flood the neighborhoods. Hire the GAF-certified contractor that pulls the permit properly and will still answer the phone for the warranty.

Roofing questions we hear in Chicago.
How much does a roof replacement cost in Chicago?
Bungalows typically run $10,000–$18,000 in architectural asphalt; two-flats with combined pitched-plus-flat systems usually land $14,000–$25,000 depending on the membrane section and parapet work. Free inspection, line-itemed quote, no games.
Can you do the flat roof on my two-flat as well as the pitched front?
Yes — that combination is the job in Chicago. We install modified bitumen or membrane on the flat rear, architectural shingles on the pitched front, and integrate the transition and parapet flashing so the roof works as one system.
Do you pull Chicago building permits?
Yes. We handle City of Chicago permitting and inspections as part of the job — done properly, not skipped, because unpermitted roof work surfaces at sale time.
My bungalow leaks around the dormer every spring. Roof or flashing?
Almost always flashing. Dormer cheeks and chimney saddles are the classic bungalow leak points, and they’re repairable without a full replacement when the shingle field is sound. We diagnose honestly and fix the actual problem.
Does hail really damage roofs in the city?
Yes — recent seasons have put hail across North Side and Northwest Side neighborhoods. Functional hail damage is insurable; we photo-document, meet your adjuster, and manage the claim end to end.
