What to ask before you hire a roofer
- Verify the state license: Illinois requires roofing contractors to hold a state roofing license, regulated by the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation (IDFPR). Licensed roofers must show their license number on bids, contracts, and advertising — look it up free on the IDFPR license lookup.
- Ask for proof of insurance: a legitimate contractor carries general liability and workers’ compensation. Ask for certificates — and confirm they’re current.
- Beware the storm chasers: after a hailstorm, out-of-town crews canvas Aurora neighborhoods offering “free roofs.” Check the state license, a real local address, and local references before signing anything.
- Get the full scope in writing: tear-off vs. overlay, underlayment, flashing, ventilation, disposal, and cleanup — plus material brand, warranty terms, and timeline.
- Who pulls the permit? roof replacements in Aurora generally need a city permit and inspection. A reputable contractor handles the permit for you.

Roofers FAQ
How much does a roof replacement cost in Aurora, IL?
It depends on the roof’s size, pitch, and material — get written quotes from two or three licensed local roofers before deciding. Be cautious of any bid dramatically lower than the rest; it usually means thinner materials, skipped tear-off, or no permit.
How do I know if I need a repair or a full replacement?
Age is the biggest factor: most asphalt shingle roofs last 20–25 years. Curling or missing shingles, heavy granule loss in the gutters, and recurring leaks point toward replacement. A reputable roofer will show you photos of what they found and explain both options.
What should a roofing quote include?
Tear-off or overlay, underlayment type, flashing and ventilation work, the shingle brand and warranty tier, debris disposal and cleanup, the project timeline, and who pulls the city permit. If any of that is missing, ask.
Do Aurora roofers help with insurance claims after hail?
Many do — they’ll document the damage and meet the adjuster. But you file the claim, not the contractor, and you should never sign over your full claim rights without understanding exactly what you’re signing.
How long does a roof replacement take?
Most single-family homes in Aurora take one to three days of actual work, weather permitting. Tear-offs, steep pitches, and decking repairs add time — ask for the schedule in writing.
