Peoria Roof Pros provides professional residential roof installation in Peoria, IL for residential and commercial properties across the central Illinois River valley. The roof that goes on with no old roof to remove. New construction, additions, dormers, garage and ADU conversions, and structures taken down to bare framing because the deck itself is being replaced. Failed shingles and tear-off are covered on our roof replacement page.
Our scope on new work starts at the deck, not the covering. Sheathing is a structural element with a span rating, an edge condition and a nailing schedule, and all three are inspected while they are still visible.
Get them wrong and the roof above them hardly matters. The covering is the part you can see and the least structural thing up there, which is why it gets the sales attention.
Panel thickness has to match the rafter or truss spacing, panel edges either land on framing or get supported, and the gap between panels is intentional rather than sloppy. We nail to the schedule the plans call for, and we keep gun pressure set so fastener heads sit flush instead of breaking the face veneer. A broken face veneer holds a nail about as well as cardboard does, and edge nailing is where we check twice.
Asphalt shingles have to be fastened to a solidly sheathed deck, with no fewer than four fasteners per strip shingle and nails long enough to penetrate the sheathing, and the manufacturer's printed count governs wherever it is higher. The design wind speed for your address sets the schedule, and the plans reviewer will hold you to it. We write that schedule into the scope by slope so there is nothing left to remember on the roof.
Then the deck gets closed in the right order. Eave and valley membrane first, field underlayment with capped fasteners, drip edge lapped so water leaves the deck rather than running behind the fascia. The sheathing inspection happens before any of that, which is the part a homeowner usually learns too late. Drip edge goes under the underlayment at the eave and over it at the rake, which crews reverse constantly.
We do not take framing contracts, and if your carpenter sheathed the roof we will look at it and tell you plainly whether it is acceptable. If your builder already has a roofer, that is normally the right answer. Call us when the deck is yours to specify, or when a reviewer has rejected one. That opinion is free and it has cost us jobs before now.
Our insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — ASTM D3161 Class F laminated shingles specified above the bluff rim and not below it, six fasteners per shingle where the standard schedule calls for four, high-wind starter strip cemented along the eaves and both rakes, hot-dipped galvanized drip edge screwed to the deck rather than hand-nailed, half-inch OSB re-decking laid over 1x6 board sheathing with skip gaps, 24-gauge standing seam panels roll-formed off site when a lot has no lay-out room — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Peoria and nearby communities including East Peoria, Peoria Heights, West Peoria, Bartonville.

Materials, equipment and how we do residential roof installation
The difference between residential roof installation that lasts and residential roof installation that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with ASTM D3161 Class F laminated shingles specified above the bluff rim and not below it, six fasteners per shingle where the standard schedule calls for four, high-wind starter strip cemented along the eaves and both rakes, hot-dipped galvanized drip edge screwed to the deck rather than hand-nailed, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Peoria job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in the central Illinois River valley means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Peoria Chooses Peoria Roof Pros
- ✓We look up the elevation and lot grade at your address before the appointment, because on the Peoria bluff the ground around the house predicts the cost of the roof better than the roof does.
- ✓The fastening specification changes by exposure zone. Six nails per shingle and cemented starter at both rakes on the plateau rim, and the standard schedule down on the valley floor where that load never arrives.
- ✓Staging is a named line item. Where the debris trailer sits, where material lands, and how far it is hand-carried are on the first page of the bid rather than found on tear-off morning.
- ✓We refuse coatings over steep-slope shingles outright, and we refuse tile conversions with no structural engineer's letter naming the load.
