Highly recommend their service! Michael quickly responded to my call about a sudden leak that started in my master bedroom overnight. He was at my house on time, diagnosed the issue, talked me through everything, and quickly and effectively repaired it. Can't thank him enough for his work! Definitely recommend!!

I contacted these people to repair a leak. I was honest and told them I don't have the money right now. The man that came out gave me three options. I finally got the money and picked the middle plan for the repair. The man that came out to write the estimate became ill and things got delayed. It was my choice to go with them so I waited. I was assured this will take care of the issue for a few years. The man miswrote the repair order and they were going to begin work on the wrong part of the house. We cleared everything up and did the middle plan or plan b. The worker seemed a little smug when

Matt at LeakStop is really the best. He is full of knowledge, advice, and his experience shows. He is clear in communicating scope of work, project schedule, and maintenance tips. I've used Matt for roofs for 2 different properties, each with its own set of unique challenges. I would not hesitate to recommend Matt. Don't waste your time with other roofs who aren't able to keep their scheduled appointment times and ambiguous estimates. Call LeakStop instead :-)

Mike was very helpful in my conversation with him. I have a vaulted exposed wood ceiling in a mid century split level that was leaking without rainfall. He explained that many customers were experiencing condensation similar to mine. This winter has been unusual with extreme cold but no snow pack. Rather than suggesting a total ripoff of the roof (which did not work for others with same problem), he suggested trying to lower humidity levels in house. I appreciate that he was very forthcoming with me and answered any and all questions I had.

To be honest, I was disappointed with the overall experience. On one hand, the owner came out, we discussed the issue and his price was fair. So I hired them. Now he and I had a very specific conversation, including a discussion of a sketch I provided to define the optimal job as far as I was concerned. It involved putting a membrane roofing over a low pitch, and two high pitch sides, to insure that if we got another ice dam in the future, that the pooled water would not go through nail holes and into the house. I specifically instructed him to put shingles "on the edge" of the membrane roof. So

Can I give out 12 stars? That's how good Michael was. I called about an issue with my attic fan. He came out a couple of hours later to look at the issue. He explained what he thought the problem was and how he would repair it. We agreed on a price. Told him I'd see him later in the week. He said no, he's going to get some parts and repair it today! "Something less to worry about" he said. He also looked around on the roof and repaired some flashing that had come up.
Mike was great. I'd recommend him for any roof repair issues!

This is the second project at our house for Leak Stop Roofing. We had other roofer options available sooner, but wanted to wait for Leak Stop to be available after a big Chicago storm. It was worth the wait. They had to tear up a roof deck, quite a bit of it, to find 2 separate leaks in our roof membrane. Afterwards, they put everything back in place with stainless deck screws and even had their guys move a roof top Jacuzzi back in place for us. Michael is straightforward, direct, honest about their timing and the scope of the project. Let's hope we don't need them any time soon, but

Mike was quick to call me back. He did the repairs that needed to be done and didn't try to sell me a new roof like all the storm chasers. I have been told by storm chasers (not Mike) that I had terrible hail damage and I needed a new roof. Mike didn't see any evidence of hail damage and said I had lots of life left in my roof and that I should get it checked every other year. Nice guy, prompt, and honest. I will use him again!

I noticed an active drip in my attic a few weekends ago and I found Leak Stop Roofing online. I contacted them through their website and on Monday morning I got a call from one of their workers. He was in the area and could stop by my house that day within a few hours. When he arrived, he saw the issue immediately and explained that my chimney had an improperly installed flashing. He had an iPad and was showing me pictures he had taken of my roof. Since a house call was a minimum of $250 and the patch for the chimney flashing was such a small job he offered to patch other areas on the roof that

I had a totally 5-star experience with Leak Stop.
First, there was direct, clear, and prompt communication.
Second, all communication was from Michael Glow, Leak Stop's owner (which I greatly appreciated).
Third, they did what they proposed to do when they said they'd do it, and at a reasonable cost.
Fourth, the worksite was spotless after they did the work.
Fifth, after they did the work, and it was time to pay, Michael suggested that we wait until after we'd had a couple of good rains so we could be sure that their efforts had been successful.
Sixth, long after that work

I called at 9PM and had a phone call back by 9AM the next morning. Mike came out that afternoon and stopped the leak at my house. Understand - Mike does not steam the snow off your roof -- he shovels it off and breaks the ice off. Once the snow and ice are gone, nothing more is there to melt and leak into your house.
I couldn't be more pleased. The leak stopped and he did it for 1/2 the price the other company quoted.
This is a friendly honest man who does a great job. He told me what it would take to fix the roof - I said I was going to try to get the original roofer to fix it

Unfortunately three leaks had re-sprung. They returned to fix them, they were better for a while. One has since appeared yet again. Leak stop told me they were out of ideas and I should call a Stucco company. I had a generally good experience but feel I have to reduce the rating for 4 stars instead of five now.

We had leaking in three separate units from the roof due to the recent snow and rain. After being ignored by local services I reached out to Mike and he was in the city in no time (on a Sunday no less). He assessed the situation carefully and promptly fixed our roof. The leaking has stopped. Mike was very professional and answered all of my questions. I would highly recommend Leak Stop Roofing for any roofing repairs you need.

I used Leak Stop Roofing on my 120 year old building in Lincoln Park and they did a great job assessing any spots that needed work, informing me on the remaining life of my roof, fixing the slate on my building that was loose, as well as fixing a gutter problem. Mike and his partner were professional, reasonably priced and even threw in a couple of extras. I would definitely use them again if I ever have a problem.

In the middle of a heavy rain, our ceiling started dripping. Early the next morning I called a few places, and Leak Stop Roofing had already come out to my house and fixed my roof before the next person even called back. The price was very reasonable and, most importantly, after a few more downpours I can say with certainty that they fixed the problem!

I highly recommend. Our house is a flip. The roof was put on by the lowest bidder. Leak stop came in and found the problem. They put in a temporary fix so we could get through the upcoming rain. Then came back and fixed it properly the next week. That was maybe 3 years ago and it is still not leaking. Now we have a different problem and happily called them back. They will fix the new problem in a couple days. Cost under $500.
