T2 Architectural and Engineering Services | Experienced Roofing Repair in Chicago, IL

Proper ventilation is critical in our climate. During a new roof installation or re-roofing, we design and install a balanced ventilation system tailored to your attic space. This allows cold, dry air to enter and warm, moist air to escape, preventing the condensation that leads to frost and ice dam formation. This proactive approach protects your roof deck and insulation from moisture damage common in Chicago winters.

Chicago's temperature swings and severe weather can cause expansion and contraction, loosening flashing around chimneys, vents, and valleys. T2 addresses this by using high-grade, malleable metals suited for our climate and employing precise installation techniques. During any roof repair or replacement, we meticulously inspect, repair, or replace all flashing, ensuring tight seals and proper integration with shingles to prevent leaks at these critical junctions.

Absolutely. Properly installed and maintained gutters are your roof's first line of defense. We ensure gutters are correctly pitched and securely attached to handle heavy rain and snow melt, directing water away from your roof edge and foundation. This reduces the risk of water backing up under shingles and causing ice dams or exacerbating flashing leaks. Our gutter cleaning service also prevents clogs that can lead to overflow and water intrusion.
