We are a fully licensed roofing contractor in Aurora working in all four of the city's counties, from the Victorian homes of the Near Eastside to townhome communities near Route 59. About one in six homes here is a townhome, so shared roof planes are routine work for our crews.
As your roofing company in Aurora, Storm Guard handles historic-district roofs, subdivision replacements, townhome associations, and commercial buildings along the I-88 corridor, along with the gutters and siding that go with them.
Residential roofing in Aurora covers a wide range: about 13 percent of homes were built before 1940 and about 41 percent between 1990 and 2009. We match materials and methods to the age and framing of each house.
Our commercial roofing in Aurora covers business parks and industrial buildings along the I-88 corridor, retail near Route 59, and multifamily properties, using low-slope membrane systems where the pitch calls for them.
We maintain, repair, and install gutter systems sized for heavy rain. The state's 24-hour rainfall record, 16.94 inches in July 1996, was set near Aurora, a reminder of how much water a gutter may need to carry.
We install and repair siding on homes of every era, matching profiles on older houses and replacing storm-damaged panels on newer ones.
Our team is dedicated to delivering warranty-backed service with meticulous attention to detail. We make sure your windows meet the highest standards for quality and performance.
If a storm opens up your roof, call us. Our crew will secure an emergency tarp as soon as conditions allow, then schedule a full assessment so you know what the permanent repair involves.
Aurora has four locally designated historic districts, where roof work goes through the city's preservation review. Storms reach here too: on July 15, 2024 the National Weather Service confirmed an EF-1 tornado from Sugar Grove that ended on the west side of the city, leaving fascia and shingle damage. Start with a roof inspection, and our crews will handle any storm damage roof repair it turns up. Call (630) 216-8297.
Every roof in Aurora goes through the same four steps, from a photographed inspection to a final walkthrough.
The first visit is a complete professional inspection: every slope photographed, with valleys, chimneys, and flashing noted, since those details matter most on the city's older homes.
Our Aurora roofing contractors provide an itemized estimate. For homes in a historic district, we note which choices may need a Certificate of Appropriateness from the city before work begins.
As your go-to roofer in Aurora, we handle historic-district projects, roof replacement in Aurora on 1990s and 2000s subdivision homes, townhome association roofs, and commercial work along the I-88 corridor. Call us today for a consultation.
Yes. Aurora has four locally designated historic districts: Near Eastside, Riddle Highlands, Tanner, and Palace Street. The city lists roofs among the exterior changes that need a Historic Certificate of Appropriateness, so we confirm requirements and plan materials before any work is scheduled.
Homes built before 1940, about 13 percent of the city, usually show trouble at the joints first.
Replacement is the better choice once the roof is worn across its whole surface. Signs include:
Yes. During the July 15, 2024 derecho, the National Weather Service confirmed an EF-1 tornado from Sugar Grove that dissipated on the west side of Aurora, with fascia and shingle damage into the city. A second tornado from the same event crossed the far southeast side on its way from Yorkville to Naperville.
Yes. Single-family attached homes make up about 17 percent of housing in Aurora, so association work is a regular part of our schedule. We scope the full building, match materials across shared planes, and provide written documentation for the board.
Each new roof includes two written warranties:
We register the warranty and give you copies of both at completion.
Enough to plan for. Quarter-size hail was reported just west of Aurora on March 10, 2026 and in the city on March 30, 2026, and golf-ball-size hail fell near Galena Road and Indian Trail Road in May 2014. Hail around one inch can bruise shingles, so an inspection after a hailstorm is worth scheduling.
Strong enough to lift shingles. The August 11, 2026 derecho produced a measured 85 mph gust at Aurora Municipal Airport, and wind damage was reported in parts of the city. Lifted or creased shingles are hard to see from the ground, so a post-storm inspection is the reliable way to check.
Aurora averages about 28 inches of snow a season, and repeated freeze and thaw cycles drive ice dams at the eaves. Ice and water membrane, balanced attic ventilation, and adequate insulation are the long-term fix.
Most single-family homes take one day. Historic homes with steep or complex rooflines, multiple layers to remove, or specialty materials typically take two to five days, plus any time needed for preservation review beforehand.
It depends on roof size, pitch, material, and deck condition, and historic-district requirements can affect material choice. We measure the roof, explain what we find, and give you an itemized price with financing options.
