JB Roofing Inc. started serving residential
and commercial customers in Barrington and surrounding areas in 1995.
Decades
of hard roofing work on a variety of Barrington IL roofs, helped us build great
reputation and become a respected, family owned, local business.
Our line of services that originally started
from asphalt shingles installation only, has expanded significantly and now
includes several additional quality services.
Here are some of JB Roofing main services, and
they short descriptions:
Asphalt shingles installation in Barrington – asphalt shingles, in general, are composed of paper
(waste paper) that has been soaked with asphalt, making it waterproof. Paper is
then top coated with asphalt layer and sprinkled with ceramic granules as a
final protection layer.
The
asphalt shingles are very economical and multipurpose, work very well on steep
and sloped roofs (they should only be used on roof slopes of two units vertical
in 12 units horizontal – 17% slope or greater).
Wood Shingles Installation in Barrington – there are two types of wood shingles we install on regular basis: cedar
wood shingles and wood shakes. The difference between them is in their
manufacturing process and appearance.
- Cedar wood shingles are sawn on both sides, have smooth surfaces, and lay flat one on top of the
other
- Cedar wood shakes are split / not sawn, have rough surfaces (or face only) and they also vary
in thickness. In order to lie in their courses tightly together they must
be tapered.
Metal Roofs Installation in Barrington - metal roofing offers significant advantages over traditional
roofing materials. Barrington metal roof installations are extremely long
lasting, durable, will save you money over the lifespan of your metal roof, and
create comfortable conditions for your family.
Flat Roof & Low Slope Roof
Installations in Barrington - There are a few options to choose from:
- Built-Up Roofing
(BUR)
- Modified Bitumen
- PVC
- EPDM – Rubber Membrane (short for ethylene propylene diene
monomer)
- Roll Roofing
Slate Tile Roof Installation in Barrington - Slate is mined all over the world,
and the process often involves very deep excavation and requires skilled
workers to manufacture the final product, a roof slate tile. Roof slate tiles are
available in 5 basic colors: black, red, gray, purple, and green. However, the
most common are gray, blue-gray, black, shades of green, deep purple, brick
red, and mottled (mixed) colors.
Synthetic Roofing Tiles installation in Barrington - synthetic
roofing tiles are manufactured using polymers or rubber blended with fillers.
They often feature a fifty year manufacturer’s warranty, are generally fire,
and also impact-resistant.
Synthetic roofing tiles are easier to install when
compared with alternative products made from natural materials. Because
synthetic tiles are light-weight, they might be mounted on top of an existing
roof without strengthening of its framework.
We always perform free estimates for property
owners, so you can call us and schedule an appointment, no strings attached.
