A new asphalt shingle roof on a 2,200 sq ft home runs $14,800–$19,400 installed in 2026. Financed over 24 months, that’s roughly $620–$810 a month. Whether the project is a full roof replacement, a new roof installation on a home nearing the end of its lifespan, or a residential roofing upgrade to metal or synthetic shingles, every job starts with a free 45-minute roof inspection and a written, line-item roofing estimate emailed within 48 hours — no verbal-only quotes, no vague ballpark numbers.

ASI Construction installs asphalt shingle roofs, standing-seam and stamped metal roofing, and Brava synthetic slate and shake across Burr Ridge, Hinsdale, Naperville, Oak Brook, Wheaton, and the wider Chicagoland south and west suburbs, backed by Owens Corning Platinum/Preferred and Brava Authorized Installer credentials and a 50-year non-prorated, transferable warranty.

Do You Need a Roof Installation?

Most homeowners don’t call about a roof until a problem is already visible, but a few signs are worth checking for before that happens — especially in a region where much of the housing was built between 1950 and 2000, meaning many roofs are at or past their expected service life.

  • Age of the roof
  • Curling, cracking, or missing shingles
  • Granule loss
  • Visible sagging
  • Water stains or attic moisture
  • Rising energy bills
  • Recent hail or wind damage
  • Selling the home

Any one of these on its own might not mean a full installation is needed — that’s exactly what the free 45-minute inspection is for. It’s a straight answer on repair vs. replace, backed by photos of every slope, before any number gets attached to it.

What Does a Roof Installation Cost by Size and Material

Roofing is often the largest single line item tied to a home’s resale value, so the price should be visible before a phone call, not behind a form. These are installed price ranges for the Chicago area, covering materials and labor.

Home Size

Asphalt Shingle

Metal

Synthetic (Brava)

1,500 sq ft

$10,200–$13,400

$16,800–$21,000

$19,500–$24,000

2,200 sq ft

$14,800–$19,400

$24,500–$30,600

$28,000–$34,800

3,000 sq ft

$19,600–$25,700

$32,400–$40,500

$37,200–$46,100

A quote lands at the low or high end of these ranges depending on a handful of factors, and a written estimate should spell out which ones apply before a homeowner signs anything:

  • Tear-off layers. Removing a single layer of existing shingles before installing new ones is standard practice.  A second or third layer adds labor and disposal costs.
  • Decking condition. Plywood decking damaged by long-term leaks must be replaced sheet by sheet, priced separately from the roofing system itself.
  • Roof pitch and complexity. Steep slopes, multiple valleys, dormers, and chimneys all add labor hours that a simple single-slope roof doesn’t require.
  • Permit and disposal fees. Local permit costs and dumpster/haul-away fees vary by municipality and are itemized on the estimate rather than folded into a single number.
  • Ventilation upgrades. Homes with inadequate attic ventilation may need ridge or soffit vent work added at the time of tear-off, which affects both cost and the warranty terms that follow.

For homes on the older end of the area’s housing stock — much of it built between 1950 and 2000 — a repair-versus-replacement conversation is often part of the estimate itself: patching a 20-plus-year-old roof can cost more over a few years than a single planned replacement would.

Financing

Roof installations can be financed through our partner, Improvifi. A $17,000 asphalt project financed over 24 months runs about $710–$770 a month, depending on rate and term.

Financing is built around the way most homeowners actually decide to move forward on a project this size:

  • Apply before the estimate is finalized. 
  • Same-day decisions in most cases. 
  • Multiple term lengths. 
  • No obligation to use it. 
  • Works alongside insurance claims.

24/7 Storm Response

Roofing emergencies don’t wait for business hours. ASI crews are on call every day of the week, including emergency tarping after a storm, so a damaged roof isn’t exposed to the next round of weather while you wait for a callback.

Commercial Installations

Commercial roofing — TPO, EPDM, PVC, and Mod Bit systems — is priced per square foot after a site walk, since drainage, insulation, and rooftop equipment vary by building. A commercial estimate follows the same 48-hour written-quote standard as residential work, but the site walk itself covers more ground:

  • Drainage assessment. Flat and low-slope roofs are evaluated for ponding risk and existing drain or scupper placement before a system is recommended.
  • Rooftop equipment. HVAC units, vents, and other penetrations are mapped out because each is a potential leak point that must be flashed and sealed correctly.
  • Insulation and energy code. Current insulation R-value is checked against the Illinois commercial energy code, and upgraded where it doesn’t meet the code.
  • Business disruption. Commercial timelines are built around the tenant’s or owner’s operating hours, where possible, with phased work on multi-unit buildings so the whole roof isn’t open at once.
  • Warranty and maintenance plans. Commercial systems from Versico® and CertainTeed® carry their own manufacturer warranty terms, and a post-install maintenance inspection schedule can be set up to catch small issues before they become claims.

Installed Systems We Stand Behind

Residential Home in Chicago suburbs

Residential: Asphalt shingles, standing-seam and stamped metal, and Brava synthetic slate or shake — a maintenance-free option with no painting or sealing, backed by a 50-year non-prorated warranty on Owens Corning® architectural systems.

Commercial & Flat Roof: TPO, EPDM, PVC, and Mod Bit systems from Versico and CertainTeed, selected for the building’s drainage and rooftop load rather than a one-size template.

We install through four manufacturer partners: Owens Corning, Versico Roofing, Brava®, and CertainTeed.

Our Owens Corning Platinum Preferred status and Brava Authorized Installer certification are what unlock the longest, fully transferable warranty terms — a detail that matters at resale, since a house is usually a family’s largest asset.

From Inspection to Final Walkthrough

  1. Free 45-Minute Inspection — We measure the roof, photograph every slope, and check attic ventilation. No sales pitch on-site — just the numbers we’ll need to write the estimate.
  2. Written Line-Item Estimate (48 Hours) — Emailed, not read aloud: material cost, labor, disposal, and warranty terms broken out separately so it can be compared line by line against other bids.
  3. Financing & Scheduling — If financing through Improvifi, approval typically comes back the same day. Installation is scheduled around material delivery and forecast conditions.
  4. Install Day — Most residential asphalt installs are complete in one to two days. Crews tarp landscaping, use a magnetic nail sweep, and haul old material off-site the same day.
  5. Final Walkthrough & Warranty Registration — A supervisor walks the property with the homeowner, then registers the manufacturer’s warranty so it’s on file and transferable to the next owner.

Comparing Bids? Ask These Three Questions

Before hiring any roofer, ask for their manufacturer credential level, their Illinois license number, and a written line-item estimate. If a contractor can’t produce all three on request, keep calling — ASI provides all three as standard practice, not an upsell.

Roof Installation Across Chicagoland — Built for the Southland

ASI Construction is headquartered in Burr Ridge, in the middle of the communities we serve, and has completed 1,200+ residential roofs across Will County and south Cook County — the area homeowners here call the Southland, not just “greater Chicago.” A roofer who doesn’t know the difference between a Joliet build code and a Naperville one hasn’t earned the call.

Roof Installation Questions (FAQ)

How long does a roof installation take?

Most residential asphalt shingle roofs are completed in one to two days. Metal and synthetic systems, as well as larger or steeper roofs, can take three to five days. Commercial flat-roof projects are scoped individually based on square footage and access.

Most municipalities in the service area require a roofing permit. We pull the permit as part of the project and confirm any HOA requirements, such as those in Burr Ridge Village Center, before work starts.

Crews dry-in exposed sections before stopping for weather and resume once conditions clear. Installation is scheduled with a built-in buffer day for this reason.

Yes. The Owens Corning 50-year warranty is non-prorated and transfers to the next owner, and the registration is completed as part of the final walkthrough.

Yes, through our financing partner, Improvifiâ„¢. Approval is typically same-day and doesn’t delay the written estimate or scheduling process.
