24/7 Roof Leak Repair | Roofing Services in Des Plaines, IL 60018

Yes, we specialize in repairing roof nail pops, a frequent issue in Des Plaines due to our climate. The wood in your roof decking expands and contracts with our seasonal temperature swings, which can push nails loose over time. Our emergency repair secures the popped nail and the surrounding shingle, and we'll advise if this indicates a need for a broader inspection to prevent future leaks.

For an ice dam leak, our priority is to safely create channels in the ice to relieve water pressure and stop active water entry into your home. We then perform a temporary interior containment and repair the compromised area of the roof. Once the weather allows, we'll provide a full assessment of your attic insulation and ventilation—key factors in ice dam formation—to help prevent a recurrence next winter.

Absolutely. For any active leak, first move valuables and furniture out of the way. Place buckets or containers to catch water and use towels to soak up moisture on floors. If safe to do so, you can carefully poke a small hole in the ceiling sagging with water to relieve pressure and prevent a larger collapse. Never attempt to remove ice dams from the roof yourself, as it's dangerous and can damage shingles.
