The short answer

We roof Murphysboro, Illinois about eight miles west of Carbondale on Route 13. Inspections and written estimates are free, the phone is answered 24 hours a day at (618) 549-0800, and the crews are our own employees rather than storm-season subcontractors.

Murphysboro sits on the Big Muddy west of Carbondale, with a housing stock that runs from turn-of-the-century frame homes near the square out to newer builds on the edges. That mix is the whole story for roofers here: older roofs with multiple layers, original decking, and ventilation that was never designed, sitting next to twenty-year-old subdivisions coming due all at once.

What we see on Murphysboro roofs

  • Older homes near the square with two and sometimes three layers of shingles that have to come off
  • Heavy mature tree cover dropping limbs and packing valleys with debris
  • Steep, cut-up rooflines on older houses that take longer to do properly
  • Storm exposure from the west with nothing between town and the Mississippi bottoms

Every inspection here is written for the house in front of us. We photograph what we find, hand you a written estimate, and tell you plainly if the honest answer is that the roof has years left.

It is a short run from Carbondale. Emergency calls here are same-day whenever it is safe to work.
