Illinois Roofers

Hiring a Roofer in Illinois

Buildermuse currently lists 10 roofers in Illinois, averaging 5.0 stars across 2,050 verified Google reviews. That is an unusually strong field — when nearly every firm clears 4.8 stars, response time and availability become the real differentiators, so call two or three rather than only the top result. Most of the crews above operate out of Chicago, Washington, and Champaign.

Illinois licenses this trade at the state level: the Roofing Contractor credential is required for all work, regardless of project size. State license required for roofing work. Verify any license directly with the issuing authority before signing a contract.

Labor is the biggest line item on most bids, and the Illinois market sets the floor: construction workers here average $41.35 an hour — about $86,008 a year — across 249,375 workers statewide, per Bureau of Labor Statistics data. That puts Illinois among the pricier construction labor markets in the country, so expect quotes to reflect it.
