At Matthews Roofing, each truck is carefully prepared the night before with the proper equipment, tools and materials. The foremen are responsible to double check to make sure the load is secure and everything loaded is accurate. Our roofers are second to none. That seems a little cliche but it's true.
While it is our goal to provide the best possible roofing materials and workforce to install those roof materials in Chicago, we understand there is a bigger picture. Matthew Roofing has had the opportunity to give back to our community at the organizations listed below. As we are blessed in our roofing endeavors, we are able to continue to give.
This Chicagoland Commercial Roof Infrared Scan helped us to pinpoint leaks in the existing roof. We tore out all these areas and installed dry insulation which allowed us to install a commercial roof system over the existing roof. It was also proof to our manufacturer of the extent of wet roof insulation under the existing roof system.
Matthews Roofing Commercial Roof Maintenance Programs protect your investment. By identifying the obvious and hidden dangers that threaten your Chicagoland roofing system's performance, we can extend the life of your commercial roof. How well a commercial roof performs over time depends on two factors.

I would like to thank Miguel and his crew from Matthew's Roofing Company for doing a great job on my roof. They neatly replaced the entire roof as it was leaking previously. I was satisfied with the work and the entire team was very professional displaying great customer service. I would highly recommend Matthews Roofing Company. -- Lewis S.

Our building has been SO HAPPY with the projects that Eric from Matthews did for us this fall. They patched our main roof, installed a new gutter with two downspouts (prior gutter had one), and replaced a balcony's roof. Eric saw it through from start to finish with a positive attitude the entire time, and that is a rare thing indeed. And, he answered his phone (equally rare!).

From the moment Eric came to give a quote, he was forthright about the most realistic and affordable options and insisted a full main roof tear-off at this time (which would have meant much more money for them) wasn

Nothing but good things to say about Matthews. From the very beginning I was kept abreast of what would be going on-from the setting up of the scaffold to clean up. Miguel and the rest of the crew were fantastic! The roof looks great, and the the surrounding area was left cleaner than when they got there. Highly recommend

This company was hired by the seller of a property that i bought and Eric From matthews roofing passed and certified that the my flat roof has no issues and leak. Lets just say that me trusting their inspection cost us 24-25K for a total tear off of our roof to solve the existing leak issue that this licensed roofer told me was none existent. I hope you avoid this company at all cost unless you want to gamble your money for an untrustworthy and unreliable company.

I am not the one who does reviews but in this instance I must. From the time Mr. Joe Nixon came out for the inspection until the work was finished I was pleased either the professionalism, wisdom, concern and the quality of workmanship that was done. The office staff was wonderful as well. Thank you to Scott for working the financial piece out!

These people are really good!
We bought a 2flat a little over a yr ago and on inspection noticed some repairs that needed to be made to the 8yr old flat roof. My inspector said the roof was installed well but in 8yrs repairs are expected. Prior to closing the original owners called Matthews and they came out to honor their 10yr warranty and make minor repairs prior to bldg changing hands!!
I just had them out, today, to get advice on adding more roof vents (at suggestion of inspector) and they explained why they weren't need--nor were new gutters which I thought I needed. It's always

Edwin called me back promptly and we made an appointment. Last min he called to reschedule for the next day. Didn’t show up and did not respond to my call and text message. All I can say is thank you for warning me of what it would be like to work with Matthew’s Roofing.

They re-did the roof of my building a few years ago and it has been riddled with leaks here and there since. I had a leak in my unit for almost 2 years that they could not fix. They ultimately cut the line to my air conditioning from the roof to my unit while trying (and failing) to fix the leak. It then took several weeks for them to admit fault in ruining my air conditioning. When I explained the obvious causal relationship between their roof work and the air conditioning not working, they tried to say they had nothing to do with it. Felt like I was being gas lighted. Ultimately, roof was fixed

I need a new roof so called for a quote. I was told someone would call me within 2 days. I waited 4 days and called back. They said someone would call me by the end of the day. 6 days later no one has still called. Reliability is critical. If this is how I am treated before they start the job, I would hate to think how timely they are during their work. I will not be using them.

We had roof repairs done by another company and needed a review of the roof. I have a flat roof with no direct access. We have difficulty finding roofers that have an extension ladder. Matthews came out quickly and was professional. We had an estimate from another company that we suspected was pushing for work that we do not need. We did expect to hear that maybe some minor work would be required. Matthews reviewed the roof, took some pictures and said the roof looked fine and to call back in a couple of years for another review for maintenance.

Update: May have taken longer than I hoped, but these guys stood behind the work, fixed something that likely wasn't even in their initial scope, and addressed the issue. The response was frankly better than I would've expected. Kudos to Brian and his team

I had three different companies come out to give me an estimate on replacing my roof and Matthews Roofing was the most professional and most reasonably priced of the three. Phillip did a great job of communicating and his crew did the entire job in one day and the new roof looks great. I was especially appreciative of how well they cleaned up. When they left you would never have known that had even been there. Overall very positive experience.

True professionals!

Customer service and response time were both Top Notch! They got in and completed my condo building roof in 1 day.

Phil was great as a PM/Salesman and kept me looped in along the way. Would highly recommend them!

My townhouse (4 units) needed a new roof (flat roof). We received estimates from many, many others, and some appeared to be less expensive. After analyzing our options, we chose Matthews because they readily provided complete information on the materials, the process involved, the excellent warrantee, their certificate of insurance (relieving us of any liability should an accident occur on the job), and additional information demonstrating their knowledge of using proper adhesives that would enable the warrantee. There were no surprises--everything went according to plan, and in two days from the

I had Phil from Matthews Roofing put a new roof on my new home in Wheaton. The old roof was in bad shape. It had algae staining, hail damage, and leaking from a sofitt. After a few quotes and referrals I hired Phil to put on architectural shingles and replace parts of the damaged soffit. The crew worked quick and cleaned up well. The family owned company has been in the family for generations and the peace of mind that they back their work with a warranty is very assuring.

My experience with Matthews Roofing - Keep looking for a reputable company. Matthews refused to compensate me for $1600 cleaning the clogged gutters, catch basin lines and the thousand of shingle marks left on my house and my neighbors. The photos show the BAG OF SHINGLES, NAILS and STAPLES left in my gutter after paying for their BEST GAF replacement roof installed. FIVE DAYS after they finished work NOONE from Matthews bothered to follow up to see if everything was OK. GAF makes quality roofs, the roofers worked in 100+ temps but the manager PHIL WALTERS dropped the ball. Mr Walters threatened

I had water coming into my house they the ceiling. Matthews came out the day before Thanksgiving and took pictures of my badly damaged roof, gave me a fair price, and on December 5th they were there at 7:30 a.m. sharp with a huge truck, tons of materials and a 5 man crew. The crew worked for 8 hours! Thankful and grateful!

This morning my broker met Phillip Walter over at a potential prosperity I'm looking to purchase. He was on time, courteous, thorough and gave knowledgeable feedback to my options regarding the roof.

He followed up with a phone call to clearly explain everything to me after he left the site. Couldn't of been happier with his service. Highly recommended.

I had always heard that Matthews Roofing was very good and a reputable company. I had a few missing shingles on my roof that needed replacement. Philip from Matthews Roofing came out and gave me an estimate ($750). He said they could come and do the work while I wasn't home. Weeks passed and one day I noticed a package of new shingles in the backyard. I contacted Philip to ask if they left the shingles and when they would begin the work. Philip told me the work was completed. I went up to my roof to check and there were still missing shingles on both sides of the roof, mostly near the dormers
