10-YEAR WORKMANSHIP WARRANTY
FINANCING AVAILABLE
Fully Licensed & Insured
100% Satisfaction Guaranteed
We’re not your typical Westmont roofing contractor. HomeHero is a local roof replacement company built on honesty and transparency.
Speaking from experience, a lot of roofing companies will tell you that you need a full replacement when a more affordable repair would actually solve the problem.
I contacted HomeHero Roofing to provide me with a quote for installing roof vents in my garage. Gina was very helpful in scheduling an appointment for me to have someone come out and take a look at my project. Matt came out and listened to what I was looking for and provided me with helpful and straightforward information. Based on Matt’s recommendation I will wait to have all the work done (new roof and new vents) at the same time. I highly recommend HomeHero Roofing.
–5-Star Review on Google from David Krull in Westmont, IL
As you can see from a recent review from a Westmont homeowner, we don’t operate like that. If your roof has a few more years left in it, we’ll say so. Honesty over upselling. That’s the HomeHero Roofing way.
That approach is why homeowners in the western suburbs keep calling us back and referring their neighbors.
Our office in Downers Grove is just 3 miles from Westmont. So when you call, you’re not getting a sales rep from across the state. You’re getting Matt, Andre, JR, or Gina, who live and work right here in DuPage County.

What sets us apart from other Westmont roofing companies
Locally-Owned and Operated: We’ve done roofing projects all over Westmont, including many right in North Westmont near Cass Avenue. Not mention, a few older homes closer to downtown by the Metra. We know what’s under those shingles because we’ve seen it firsthand.
10-Year Workmanship Warranty: Most Westmont roofers give you a 1 or 2 year workmanship warranty. Our roof replacement warranty is 10 years. That’s not a typo.
We can do that because we’re confident in our crews and we’re not going anywhere. We also carry a 100% leak-free guarantee on our roof repairs.
And finally, we’re a fully licensed, bonded, and insured roofing contractor in Illinois with decades of experience and over 270 projects completed nearby.
No Deposits Required: Also, we don’t ask for deposits on most Westmont roofing jobs. You pay when the work’s done and you’re happy with it. Pretty simple. Also, our pricing is not the lowest, but it’s fair for the quality you are getting.
Find out how our prices compare to the average Chicago roofing contractor.
And because we only do roofing and gutters, versus others who offer every service possible, our crews are more specialized and can perform higher quality work, more efficiently. This means a better quality asphalt roof for your home.
Our Reputation: HomeHero’s local reputation as an honest roofing service that does quality work is proven by our immaculate track record.
We’ve earned over 120 reviews with a 5.0 out of 5.0 rating on Google. In addition, we have perfect 5-star ratings on Yelp, Angieslist, Thumbtack, Nextdoor, and Facebook. Moreover, we’re a BBB-accredited roofer with an A+ rating.
Not to mention, we’re able to offer more robust material warranties as an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor.
Residential Roofing Services in Westmont, IL
Whether you need a full tear-off or just a few shingles replaced, we’ve got you covered. Here’s what we do for Westmont homeowners.
Roof Replacement in Westmont
Roofs around here typically last 20 to 30 years. So if your home was built in the 50s, 60s, or 70s and you’re still on the original roof (or a second-layer job from the 90s), it’s probably time.
We use Owens Corning Duration shingles on 90% of Westmont area roofing jobs. They’re rated for 130 mph winds, resist algae, and come with a lifetime material warranty from the manufacturer.
Quality materials only matter if your contractor installs them correctly. We investigated 7 roofing contractors in nearby Downers Grove and found three that should be avoided entirely, including one that admits on their own website they don’t actually do roofing.
Remember that HomeHero is an Owens Corning Preferred Roofing Contractor so we can offer even better material warranties. Pair that with our 10-year workmanship guarantee and your roof in Westmont is set for decades.
The whole process is pretty straightforward. We pull the permits, tear off the old roof, install the new one, and clean up. Most jobs wrap up in a day or two.
Roof Repair Services in Westmont
Sometimes you don’t need a new roof. You just need to fix what’s broken.
Repairs we handle all the time: missing shingles, cracked flashing around chimneys, small leaks, wind damage, hail hits.
With HomeHero, you get all of your roofing repair needs in Westmont taken care of, all under one “roof”.
Not sure if you need a repair or a full replacement? That’s what the inspection is for. We’ll tell you exactly what makes the most sense for your situation. No upselling.
Only the same honest advice we’d give ourselves, friends, family, or our neighbors, if we we’re in the same position. Again, that’s the HomeHero Way.
Free Roof Inspections
Every project starts with a comprehensive roofing inspection. We get up on the roof and check the shingles, flashing, vents, gutters, and fascia. Then we go into the attic to look for water stains, mold, or ventilation issues.
After that, you get a written estimate. Line by line with every step outline and what types of materials we will use.
Our roofing inspection reports or price quotes also include copies of our Illinois roofers’ licenses, insurance, and bonding documents, as well as our workmanship warranty terms, clearly outlined.
No ballpark guesses or sales pressure, just honest roofing at a great price. All so you can make the most informed decision for your westmont house, whether or not you choose us this season.

Roofing Challenges for Westmont Homes
Westmont has a lot of older homes. We’re talking 1950s through the early 80s for much of the housing stock.
That means a lot of roofs that are way past their prime, or have already been replaced once and are due again.
Common Home Styles in Westmont
North of Ogden Avenue, you’ll see a ton of ranches and split-levels from the postwar building boom. These houses often have low-slope sections that can be tricky.
Water likes to pool there, and ice dams form in winter if the ventilation isn’t right. You need a professional roofing crew that knows how to handle that.
Downtown Westmont and the area around the Metra station is more of a mix. Older bungalows, some newer rehabs.
A lot of these homes have been re-roofed at least once. Some have two or three layers of shingles stacked up, which all needs to come off before you can do a proper replacement.
Over by the Oak Brook and Clarendon Hills borders, the homes get bigger. Steeper pitches, more valleys, dormers, complex roof lines. These projects take longer and require crews who’ve done this type of work before.
Westmont Weather in DuPage County
You already know how Westmont weather beats up roofs. Heavy snow in winter leads to ice dams, especially on older homes with poor attic insulation. Then spring and summer bring the storms. Hail, high winds, the whole deal.
The best roofers will tell you when you don’t need a new roof. Learn how to find an honest roofing contractor.
As a result, we tell homeowners here to get their roof checked once a year, and definitely after any big storm. Typically, small problems turn into expensive problems fast if you ignore them.
One more thing: Westmont, Illinois, requires permits for roof replacements. We handle that paperwork for you so you don’t have to chase down inspectors or deal with the village.
How We Perform Roofing Projects in Westmont
Here is the process our roofers in Westmont take, step by step, to ensure a truly differentiated and quality roofing experience for our neighbors here.
Step 1: Complimentary Inspection For Westmont Residents
We come out for your free inspection in Westmont, get on the roof, and take a close look at everything. Asphalt shingles, flashing, gutters, vents. We also check the attic.
You’ll know exactly what shape your roof is in before we talk about anything else.
Step 2: Written Estimate
Same day in most cases, you’ll have a detailed estimate. Materials, labor, permits, everything broken out line by line. If a repair makes more sense than a replacement, we’ll tell you that too.
Remember, as soon as you decide to work with us, your dedicated project manager will reach out to help you choose shingle colors and answer any questions.
Learn about how each different roofing material works together to protect your roof.
Step 3: Permits and Scheduling
After you give us the green light, we pull all the necessary roofing permits in Westmont and get you on the schedule.
Most replacements happen within a week or two of signing but can happen faster, even in peak season during the summer.
That’s all possible because our crews are local and are likely already working on a home down the street or nearby in Woodridge or Downers Grove.
You can learn more about the HomeHero Roofing team and our locally-based team.
Step 4: Installation
Our crew shows up on time and gets to work. Owens Corning Duration shingles, proper nail patterns, correct ventilation. All the details that matter for a roof that actually lasts.
Step 5: Walkthrough and Cleanup
When we’re done, we walk through everything with you. Then we clean up. Debris, nails, everything. We run a magnet over your yard. Your property should look better than when we got there.
Step 6: Warranty Registration
We register your Owens Corning warranty and give you documentation for our 10-year workmanship guarantee. You’re new Westmont roof is covered for decades to come.

Where HomeHero Works Most Near Westmont
Our Downers Grove office location is about 3 miles from downtown Westmont. Most of our work happens within a 15-minute drive of there. DuPage County, some of Cook County, all the western suburbs.
Being close means we can get to you fast. Roof leak on a Tuesday afternoon? We’re not driving in from an hour away. We’re already in the neighborhood, probably finishing up another job a few blocks over.
Clarendon Hills, Downers Grove, and Willowbrook
These three towns border Westmont directly, so we’re over here constantly. The housing stock is similar too. Lots of 1960s and 70s builds with original or second-generation roofs that are hitting the end of their lifespan.
Clarendon Hills tends to have slightly larger lots and some homes with steeper roof pitches.
Roofing-wise, Willowbrook has more ranch-style homes with lower slopes, which means ice dams can be an issue in winter if ventilation isn’t right.
And Downers Grove is a mix of everything, from smaller post-war ranches to newer construction near downtown DG.
Hinsdale, Oak Brook, and Western Springs
Head east from Westmont and you’re in some of the nicer neighborhoods in DuPage and Cook County.
Bigger homes, more complex shingle angles, and higher-end materials are the status quo for Hinsdale roofs. These projects take a bit longer because there’s more square footage and more detail work involved.
Hinsdale especially has a lot of older homes with original slate or cedar that homeowners want to preserve. On the other hand, Oak Brook, IL, roofing jobs skews newer with larger suburban estates.
In any case, we handle all of it. But these jobs require crews who know what they’re doing, and that’s what we bring.
Nearby Western Springs is a mix, with a lot of early 1900s homes near downtown and midcentury builds further out.
Last but not least, because of our reputation, we won’t overcharge you just because you live in an expensive neighborhood.
Darien, Lisle, Woodridge, and Naperville
West of Westmont, you get into the Naperville corridor. Darien and Lisle are right next door, with a lot of 70s and 80s construction.
If you live in any of these nearby suburbs, you need honest roofing with experienced crews who pay attention to the details that matter most. And that’s precisely what you get with HomeHero.
Also nearby, Woodridge has some newer subdivisions mixed in with older sections, similar to roofs in Westmont.
Now, Naperville is all over the map, from brand-new builds to 30-year-old roofs that are due for replacement.
The common thread here is that most of these homes have standard asphalt shingle roofs.
Indeed, these are mostly straightforward replacements. Accordingly, we can usually knock these out in a day, sometimes two if the roof is on the larger side.
Other western Chicago suburbs we done work in nearby: Darien, Bolingbrook, Warrenville, and Villa Park, Illinois.
La Grange, LaGrange Highlands, and Burr Ridge
Southeast of Westmont, you’ve got La Grange and LaGrange Highlands.
These are older communities with a lot of character. Century-old homes in downtown La Grange, midcentury ranches in the Highlands.
Roof work here sometimes involves matching existing materials or dealing with quirks from previous repairs done decades ago.
Burr Ridge is different. Larger homes, longer driveways, more land. Roofs out there tend to be bigger and more complex. Steeper pitches, multiple roof planes, sometimes specialty materials. We’ve done plenty of work in Burr Ridge and know what to expect.
Westmont Roofing FAQs
Our residential roofers get a ton of questions from Westmont homeowners deciding on which local roofing company to trust. Here’s a few standouts among them.
How much does a roof replacement cost in Westmont?
For most single-family homes in Westmont, you’re looking at somewhere between $12,000 and $25,000. It depends on roof size, pitch, and how complicated the job is.
More dormers, valleys, or steep sections means more labor and materials. We give free estimates with everything itemized so you know exactly what you’re paying for. Our latest pricing guide shows you how much roofers cost per hour.
Do I need a permit to replace my roof in Westmont?
Yes. Westmont requires a building permit for roof replacements. But don’t worry about it. We handle the whole permit process. We submit the application, pay the fee, and schedule inspections. You don’t have to do anything.
Have more questions? Visit our FAQ page to dive into the details that make us an exceptional Westmont roofing service.
How long does a roof replacement take?
Most residential roofs in Westmont take one to two days to replace. Bigger or more complex roofs might take an extra day. Weather can push things back too. We’ll give you a realistic timeline when we do your estimate for additional peace of mind.
What shingles do you recommend for Westmont homes?
Owens Corning TruDefinition Duration asphalt shingles are most popular in Westmont, IL. They’re architectural shingles rated for 130 mph winds, they hold up well in our climate, and they come with a lifetime warranty from the manufacturer. We’ve used them on hundreds of roofs and they perform.
How do I know if my roof needs repair or replacement?
Look for missing shingles, curling edges, granules piling up in your gutters, water stains on your ceiling, or daylight coming through in the attic. If your roof is 20+ years old, it’s worth getting an inspection even if everything looks fine from the ground.
Do you offer financing?
Yes. We have financing options that let you spread the cost out over time. Ask about it when we do your estimate.
