The Benefits of Copper Roofing
Copper is a gorgeous metal that gives your home a unique, customized look. Copper can be one of the priciest of metals used in roofing; the Shake Guys can explain how you can affordably incorporate copper accents to get the shine, look and luster without the astronomical price tag. Our coppersmiths emphasize the strengths and natural beauty of your home with copper sheet metal, turning functional — and often unsightly — portions of your home into appealing complements. With the care of artisan masters and the knowledge of engineers, the Shake Guys team produces the perfect copper-accented cedar shake roofs for clients in the Chicagoland area.

Take it From Our Happy Customers
Aditya B.
Shake Guys were fantastic to work with. I just had roof treatment done for my cedar shake roof. The inspection, quote, scheduling, and the actual work on the day were all managed really well. And they were proactive in enquiring about satisfaction and feedback on the work. I would recommend and go back to them again.
Michelle M.
I could not be happier with either the Shake Guys or the work that they did for me. Their patience with the process, the HOA, and weather have been beyond expectations. They did a beautiful job, left my property in pristine shape, and worked with numerous other trades to coordinate completion in less time than anticipated. I could not be happier. Each contact has been terrific.
Ed D.
From the initial estimate to the final inspection they kept us informed of the entire process and what to expect at every stage of the project. The final result was amazingly aesthetic and adds not just curb appeal but real value to our home, it reduced our homeowners insurance by approximately 10% and surely makes us the envy of our neighbors, well done!!
