Pinkston-Tadd, Inc. Roofing Services | Roofing Services in Dekalb, IL 60115

Winter in Dekalb can be tough on roofs. For ice dams, which cause water to back up under shingles, we perform thorough inspections to identify ventilation or insulation issues contributing to the problem. Our repairs often include sealing vulnerable areas and improving attic airflow to prevent recurrence. For skylight leaks, which are common with freeze-thaw cycles, we examine the flashing and sealant integrity. Our team is certified by major manufacturers, so we use compatible, high-quality materials for repairs or, if needed, a full skylight replacement to ensure a watertight seal that withstands our local weather.

Our maintenance plans are designed for the seasonal demands of the Illinois climate. They typically include bi-annual inspections (often in spring and fall), gutter cleaning to prevent clogs from Midwest debris, checks for storm or winter damage like loose shingles or compromised flashing, and assessments of ventilation systems. These proactive visits help catch small issues—like a minor leak near a chimney or a section of sagging gutter—before they become major, costly repairs. For a licensed and insured contractor like us, it's about extending the life of your roof and providing peace of mind throughout the year.

Yes, we specialize in custom gutter fabrication and installation through our sheet metal and welding services. Custom gutters, often made from durable materials like aluminum or copper, are seamless on long runs, which significantly reduces the chance of leaks at seams—a common failure point in standard sectional gutters. They are also tailored to fit your home's exact dimensions and slope for optimal water drainage. For homes in our area with heavy rainfall or snowmelt, this means better protection for your roof, siding, and foundation from water damage. We can match them to your home's aesthetic for a clean, integrated look.
