About HomeHero Roofing

HomeHero Roofing is a residential roofing and gutter company based in Downers Grove, serving Hinsdale, La Grange, Naperville, Westmont, Darien, Woodridge, and nearby Chicago western suburbs. This page covers our story, leadership team, values, licenses, 10-year warranty, reviews, and how to work with our award-winning roofing team.

Our Story

Every homeowner needs a hero for their roof. That is why we launched HomeHero Roofing, to bring reliable service, clean jobsites, and straightforward pricing to Chicago’s western suburbs. Since 2023, we’ve completed 390+ roofing projects and earned a 5.0-star rating across 380+ reviews on Google, Thumbtack, Yelp, Angi, BBB, Facebook, Zillow, and Nextdoor.

In 2026 we opened a second office at 14 W Burlington Ave in downtown La Grange. Downers Grove covers the DuPage side of our service area, and La Grange covers west Cook and the near west suburbs. Each office has its own crew, phone, and hours. What does not change is the system: photo documentation on every project, an honest repair-or-replace answer in writing, and the same 10-year transferable workmanship warranty.

HomeHero Roofing focuses 100% on residential roofing systems. We are not a general contractor who does a little of everything. That singular focus means deeper expertise with every roof we touch, from the deck and ventilation all the way through the shingles and ridge cap. Every HomeHero Roof System is installed to manufacturer specifications, deck to ridge, using Owens Corning materials.

Transparency matters to us. You can verify our credentials on IDFPR anytime. We’re fully licensed, bonded, and insured with no disciplinary history on file.

Homeowners choose us for transparent proposals, quick response times, and a 10-year warranty that most contractors won’t match. There is no deposit, the estimate is itemized line by line, and you pay when the job is done and you’re satisfied. That set of protections has a name: the Honest Roof Guarantee, and it is in writing on every estimate.

The weather here has changed. Researchers at Northern Illinois University have tracked severe-storm activity shifting east into the Midwest, and 2026 made the case on its own, with two tornado-warned events over the western suburbs in a single summer. Here is the difference between us and the trucks that follow the damage: we did not show up because the weather turned. We were already here. Both owners live in the western suburbs, and our La Grange office was committed weeks before the biggest storm of the year hit it.

Meet the HomeHero Roofing Team

Owners, office, and sales all live and work in Chicago’s western suburbs. Here is who answers the phone, who walks your roof, and who runs the job from estimate to final cleanup. Plus the Owens Corning shingle color each of them would put on their own house.

Matt Balducci, CEO and Co-Owner of HomeHero Roofing

Matt Balducci

CEO and Co-Owner

Born and raised in Chicago’s south suburbs, now in Downers Grove with his wife and two kids. Matt started in home services at 19 while at the University of Illinois, then spent close to a decade in roofing at high-volume companies like Brothers Services Company and National Services Group, where crews completed thousands of roofs a year. He later moved to the technology side of the industry, working with top operators across the country. That mix of field and back-office knowledge is what he brought to HomeHero on day one. Outside work he coaches youth sports, travels, powerlifts, and plays pickleball.

Andre Kazimierski, President and Co-Owner of HomeHero Roofing

Andre Kazimierski

President and Co-Owner

Born and raised in Chicago’s western suburbs, with 20+ years building home service companies. Andre launched and scaled 3rd Gen Painting and Remodeling, later acquired, co-founded the venture-funded platform Improovy, and runs Sophia’s Cleaning Service, a La Grange landmark since 1984. At HomeHero Roofing he focuses on growth, branding, and the technology that keeps estimates and communication fast. He lives in La Grange Highlands with his wife, Carol, and their dogs, Bruno and Alice. When he is not working on the business, you will find him at the gym or on the pickleball court.

Gina Casale, General Manager of HomeHero Roofing

Gina Casale

General Manager

More than 20 years leading operations in the home improvement industry. Gina helped build The Window Guys from the ground up to $15 million in revenue, then ran operations for 100+ employees across Window Works and Jacuzzi of Chicago as they grew past $50 million in annual installations. She brings that same operational focus to every HomeHero project, and homeowners notice. Outside of ownership, Gina is the person named most often in our customer reviews, usually for responsiveness and follow-through. Away from the office she volunteers with a local youth wrestling program and tends her flower garden.

Christian Garcia, Sales Representative at HomeHero Roofing

Christian Garcia

Sales Representative

Christian took on remodeling projects with family and friends as a teenager, then went straight into the trades after school and spent about four years working as a brick mason. He also co-founded a home improvement business with his childhood best friend, which is where he learned the homeowner side of the work. Now he puts both halves together, reading a roof like a tradesman and explaining the options in plain language. His name is climbing our review board faster than anyone else’s on the team. Off the clock he plays basketball, backs the Rams in a Bears office, and is learning golf.

Franco Mercado, Sales Representative at HomeHero Roofing

Franco Mercado

Sales Representative

Franco is a former Marine and a combat veteran, born and raised in the Chicago area and living in Oak Park today. The service taught him to show up on time, work hard, and take care of the people around him, and that is how he treats every homeowner he meets. This is his community, so being on your roof feels personal. He is known on the team for his photo walkthroughs, annotating shots so you can see exactly where water is getting in and why. Outside work he is in the gym most days, and the best part of his day is time with his wife and two kids.

Erica Weissfeld, Client Services at HomeHero Roofing

Erica Weissfeld

Client Services

Erica keeps every project organized from the first phone call through the final cleanup. She brings more than a decade in operations and customer service, and she is usually the first voice a homeowner hears, including on emergency calls that come in at odd hours. She confirms the details, books the appointment correctly the first time, and follows up so nothing falls between the estimate and the crew. That work is a big part of why homeowners describe the process as smooth and stress free. Her own downtime goes to her family and to taking her dogs to the park.

Values and How We Work

  • Integrity first: Roofing is work you cannot climb up and verify yourself, so honesty is the only guarantee you can actually check. If a repair will extend your roof’s life 5 to 10 years, that is what we will tell you. If the roof genuinely needs replacing, we say that too.
  • The Honest Roof Guarantee: No deposit, an itemized estimate showing every line item, payment only on completion, and a 10-year transferable workmanship warranty that stays with the home if you sell. Financing is available through Acorn Finance.
  • Photo documentation on every project: Before, during, and after, including the parts of your roof you will never see from the ground. You get the photo deck of the finished work.
  • The Honest Roof Method: Six steps, from the free inspection to the day your warranty starts, the same way on every project.
  • Owens Corning Preferred Contractor: We’re certified by Owens Corning as a Preferred Contractor, meeting their standards for professionalism, reliability, and installation quality.
  • Clean jobsites, every time: Magnet sweeps, daily tidy, respectful crews. We leave your yard cleaner than we found it.
  • Fast response: Same-week inspections and scheduling when storms hit. Book emergency roof leak services now.
  • Insurance claim support: When a storm is involved, we help you document the damage and file the claim. We’re a retail roofer, so we help you through the process rather than promising an outcome.
  • Safety first: PPE, site checks, and trained installers on every project, with multiple magnetic nail sweeps before we leave.
  • Local and accountable: Both owners live in the western suburbs they serve, Matt in Downers Grove and Andre in La Grange Highlands. Two offices, Downers Grove and La Grange, and neither one is a call center.
  • Community giving: HomeHero donates $30 to local veterans organizations for every completed full roof, including Midwest Shelter for Homeless Veterans, Homes for Our Troops, Naperville Responds for Veterans, DuPage Habitat for Humanity, and the West Suburban Foundation for Disabled Veterans.

Matt leads the field side of the business and Gina Casale, our General Manager, runs operations and production with more than 20 years of home improvement experience. Andre focuses on growth, branding, and the technology behind the estimates.

Do you require a deposit?

No. There is no deposit and no money upfront. You pay when the job is complete and you’re satisfied with the work. That is part of the Honest Roof Guarantee, along with the itemized estimate and the 10-year transferable warranty.

What warranty do you offer?

Full roof replacements include a 10-Year Transferable Workmanship Warranty, which stays with the home if you sell it. Many roofing contractors only offer 1 to 2 years. Owens Corning shingles carry a separate limited lifetime manufacturer warranty. Read the full warranty terms.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. We hold Illinois roofing licenses 104.019924 / 105.010799, carry $2 million in liability insurance, and are fully bonded. We’re an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor, BBB Accredited with an A+ rating and 2025 Complaint Free Award, and a member of the Chicago Roofing Contractors Association (CRCA).

Do you help with insurance claims?

Yes. When storm damage is involved we photograph the roof, document what we find, and help you file the claim with your carrier. We’re a retail roofer rather than a claims operation, so we help you through the process and never promise an outcome. In Illinois, roofing contractors cannot act as public adjusters, and we stay on the right side of that line.
