That&#8217;s why its beneficial for homeowners to work with local services. Roofing companies outside your area may not be available to repair mistakes or uphold warranty claims.\u00a0<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4 tabindex=\"0\">Can I get a new roof in winter?<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Absolutely! We are an East Central Illinois roofing company that works year-round and knows how to deal with challenging weather.<\/p>\n<p>We normally only need one decent weather day to tear off and &#8220;dry in&#8221; your roof. After that, it can rain\/snow all it wants, and your home will stay cozy and dry while we finish installing your new roof.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4 tabindex=\"0\">When can you start?<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Any good roofing company should have a lead time of 3-12 weeks (about 3 months), depending on time of year. Demand is always high for our services; so, even though there are roofing companies that can start next week, we are worth the wait.<\/p>\n<h2>\n\t\tREQUEST A FREE QUOTE\n\t<\/h2>\n<h6>\n\t\t(Serving Champaign County and Surrounding Area)\n\t<\/h6>\n\t<p>Getting a competitive bid is fast and easy!

I was particularly impressed that one of the family members fully participated throughout the entire job, working on-roof with the rest of the crew. They obviously had a good relationship with each other. The work was excellent, finished in two days, with complete cleanup.
