Is Your Home Prepared for Illinois Weather?
Is your home truly prepared for the next big Illinois storm? In Central Illinois, our homes take a beating – from the heavy snow and ice of January to the hail, wind, and humidity of summer. Your home’s exterior is its first line of defense, and when that defense is compromised, your biggest investment is at risk.
At Abe’s Roofing & Exteriors, we define exterior contractor services as more than just patching a leak or swapping out a few shingles. We provide comprehensive exterior remodeling and exterior renovation solutions designed to protect your property for decades. We are neighbors, not storm chasers. While out-of-town crews drift in and out of Sangamon County after a storm, our team – built by four friends with over 60 years of combined experience – stays right here.
Whether you need a complete roof replacement in Springfield, new siding in Rochester, window upgrades in Riverton, or industrial roofing in Decatur, we deliver craftsmanship built on integrity, precision, and pride.
Our Comprehensive Exterior Services
We are a full-service exterior construction company, meaning we handle the entire building envelope. We don’t just patch problems; we upgrade your home’s performance and curb appeal. When you hire Abe’s, you get a partner who understands how your roof, siding, gutters, and windows work together to keep your home safe.
Metal Roofing
Metal is the future of roofing, and we are leading the way in Central Illinois. As holders of an Unlimited Roofing License, we handle residential, commercial, and agricultural projects with equal expertise.
- Mansea Metal Partnership: We use premium American-made steel from Mansea Metal, backed by a 40-year non-prorated warranty.
- The “Lifetime” Screw: We exclusively use redesigned fasteners that match the warranty of the roof itself—solving the #1 issue with old metal roofs.
Asphalt Roofing
For homeowners who prefer the traditional look of shingles, we install industry-leading systems from CertainTeed and Atlas Pinnacle.
- The 6-Step System: We don’t skip steps. We install the complete system – including ice & water barrier, synthetic underlayment, starter shingles, and ridge venting—to ensure your warranty remains valid.
- Storm Restoration: Expert roof repair and roof replacement after wind or hail damage.
Siding Installation
Your siding is your home’s armor. We specialize in siding installation that combines durability with stunning aesthetics.
- Vinyl Siding Replacement: Low maintenance, high durability, and available in a massive range of colors.
- Fiber Cement Siding Installation: For a premium, wood-look finish that resists fire, rot, and pests.
Window Replacement
Old, drafty windows are a major source of energy loss. Our exterior contractors and window specialists install high-performance replacement windows.
- Energy Efficiency: Reduce your heating and cooling bills with double or triple-pane glass.
- Professional Fit: We ensure a tight seal to block out noise and drafts.
Gutters & Gutter Guards
Water is the enemy of your foundation. Our seamless gutters are custom-fabricated on-site to fit your home perfectly.
- Gutter Guards: Keep leaves and debris out, ensuring water flows freely away from your home.
- Maintenance: We offer cleaning and repair to keep your system functioning year-round.
Deck Construction
Extend your living space outdoors with a custom deck. We build safe and stylish structures using treated lumber or low-maintenance composite.
- Custom Design & Build: From simple platforms to multi-level entertainment spaces, we design decks that fit your lifestyle and your budget.
- Material Options: Choose treated lumber for natural warmth or composite decking for a splinter-free, low-maintenance finish that resists fading.
Common Exterior Problems We Solve
Homeowners often call us when they spot a problem, but exterior home services are also about prevention. Here are the common issues we resolve:
Storm Damage & Insurance Confusion
Hail and wind can cause invisible damage that leads to leaks months later. We identify the damage early and handle the complex home exterior repair process.
Aging & Hidden Leaks
An old roof or cracked siding lets water seep into your walls, causing mold and rot. Our roof inspection and roof maintenance services catch these issues before they become disasters.
Energy Loss
If your energy bills are spiking, your windows or siding might be to blame. Exterior upgrades can dramatically improve your home’s insulation.
Fading Curb Appeal
Streaked roofs, dented siding, and peeling paint lower your property value. Our custom home exteriors bring pride of ownership back to your driveway.
The Insurance Advantage: Work with Legacy Claims
This is where Abe’s Roofing & Exteriors stands apart from almost every other local exterior contractor. Dealing with insurance companies after a storm is stressful, confusing, and time-consuming. You shouldn’t have to fight for the coverage you pay for.
We work with Legacy Claims LLC, a licensed public adjusting firm.
Unlike general contractors who can only offer an estimate, public adjusters are license to interpret your policy and negotiate directly with your insurance carrier on your behalf.
Legacy Claims ensures no detail is missed, from the vents on your roof to the screens on your windows.
We handle the communication, documentation, and meetings. You get a fair claim and a home restored to pre-storm condition.
Our Process: From Inspection to Final Nail
We believe in transparency. Here is exactly what happens when you choose us as your exterior improvement contractor.
Free Inspection & Consultation
We visit your property to assess the condition of your exterior. We provide an honest evaluation—if you don’t need a new roof, we’ll tell you.
Insurance & Estimate
- For Storm Damage: We bring in Legacy Claims LLC to handle the insurance filing and negotiation process for you.
- For Retail Projects: We provide a clear, transparent estimate with no hidden fees.
Material Selection
You visit our showroom or we bring samples to you. We prioritize All-American-Made Locally Sourced Materials, keeping our dollars in the Illinois community.
The Build
Our OSHA-compliant crews arrive on time. We use magnetic nail sweeps and debris control to keep your yard safe and clean throughout the project.
Final Walkthrough
We don’t just drive away. We walk the job site with you to ensure every detail meets our standards—and yours.

Investing in professional roofing and siding services offers immediate and long-term returns:
Enhanced Curb Appeal
New siding and a clean roof line transform the look of your home, making it the envy of the neighborhood.
Increased Property Value
Exterior renovation projects often have the highest ROI of any home improvement.
