Chicago, renowned for its diverse architecture, showcases an array of roof styles that reflect both historical influences and modern innovations.

This project started with a replacement boiler that was not rated to the same amount of heat as the boiler it replaced. That lack of heat came with a dramatically more energy effect boiler but created an unhappy family during the coldest days of the winter.
We removed existing insulation, covered the power vent on the roof, vented bathrooms fans properly though the roof and foamed roof deck. Client has major moisture issues and potential deterioration of the roof… and of course COMFORT winter and summer.
The peak of the attic is almost 15’, making for a large number of square feet of usable space and the ability to save as much as 30-50% on heating meaning lower bills, a longer life for the existing equipment and the ability to improve how our home meets our needs.
