Naperville Premium Roofing provides professional residential roof installation in Naperville, IL for residential and commercial properties across the DuPage and Will county suburbs. A first roof, not a second one. New construction, a room addition, a dormer, a garage conversion, or a deck going back to bare wood because the sheathing is being replaced rather than because the shingles failed. Tear-off and disposal live on our roof replacement page.
The decision that matters here is made weeks before anyone orders shingles. A vented attic in this climate has to carry a lot of insulation and still breathe at the eave, and the only cheap time to resolve that conflict is while the trusses are still being drawn. Decided late, it becomes a choice between burying the vent and leaving the ceiling thin, and both of those are wrong.
Illinois settles the insulation level for you. The state energy code applies everywhere and a municipality, home rule or not, cannot adopt a less stringent residential standard.
The table asks for R-49 in DuPage County's climate zone, and accepts R-38 only where its full uncompressed height carries over the wall top plate at the eave. Read it twice: the exemption is about depth at the eave, not about the total in the field.
That sentence is a framing instruction. A standard flat heel leaves no room for depth over the top plate, so the insulation gets compressed, the soffit vent gets buried, and the eave becomes the cold spot where ice forms.
A raised heel, or a properly sized baffle at every rafter bay, is the fix and it costs little on the truss order. Baffles cost dollars; frost-damaged sheathing costs a reroof.
Intake and exhaust get sized together, not separately. Ridge vent with too little soffit intake pulls air from the house instead of from outside, which is how a new attic ends up with frost on its sheathing in January. We mark the net free area on both sides of the assembly and hand that figure to you. Power vents stacked on top of ridge vents short-circuit the assembly, so we do not mix them.
If your builder's roofer is already carrying the dry-in, leave it alone. Our honest value on a new build is usually the eave and ventilation detail, which a truss supplier and a competent roofer can also get right. Call us when nobody owns that detail, or when the attic of a finished addition is already sweating. On a new build the eave is where we would spend your last four hundred dollars.
Our insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — ASTM D3462 fiberglass-mat laminated shingles, ASTM D7158 wind classification stated per slope, half-inch CDX sheathing swapped at an agreed per-sheet price, self-adhered ice barrier carried past the inside face of the exterior wall, ring-shank fasteners driven in the manufacturer's nailing zone, 24-gauge snap-lock standing seam over high-temperature underlayment — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Naperville and nearby communities including Lisle, Woodridge, Warrenville, Wheaton.

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 D3462 fiberglass-mat laminated shingles, ASTM D7158 wind classification stated per slope, half-inch CDX sheathing swapped at an agreed per-sheet price, self-adhered ice barrier carried past the inside face of the exterior wall, 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 Naperville 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 DuPage and Will county suburbs means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Naperville Chooses Naperville Premium Roofing
- ✓We state in writing whether your job triggers a Naperville permit, because an asphalt re-cover over sound sheathing does not, and that means no inspector will ever see it.
- ✓A per-sheet price for half-inch CDX sheathing is agreed and signed before tear-off morning, so "we found rot" is a number you already approved rather than a negotiation on a ladder.
- ✓Our Illinois roofing license number is on the bid, the contract and the truck, and you can check it against the state register before you call anyone.
- ✓Arbitration and jury-waiver clauses are pointed out and signed separately, the way Illinois law requires, or they do not bind you at all.
