Just like any other feature of your home, your roof is prone to breakdown. When mother nature or age gets the best of your home’s roof call us! When the roof is cracked, damaged, or broken, water and other things can get into the roof and really damage your home or business.  Dickson Contractors have been the roofing experts in Wood Dale Illinois since 1987! We know roofing and we know how to make sure your roof is protecting your home, family, or business from the intense weather typical of the Wood Dale area.  You can delve deeper into roofing from the article below however to give you a brief overview of what to look for on your roof to give you signs that it might need to be repaired or replaced:

  1. Cracked Shingles:  Along with missing shingles, curling shingles, cracked shingles are just as serious a warning sign that you should consider getting a roof replacement.
  2. Bald Spots: If your roof has several bald spots, where there are missing shingles you should definitely consider getting a professional roofing service to come out and inspect your roof.
  3. Leaks:  If you notice, holes or leaks, in your roof, you should consider calling a professional roofing service to come and inspect your roof to make sure it is still safe.
  4. Dark Streaks:  This is a sign of airborne algae that has started to grow on your roof.
  5. Age: If your roof is at least 18 years old then you should call a professional roofing service to inspect your roof immediately.  After 18 years roofs start to break down and lose its ability to hold their integrity.

Dickson Contractors has been serving the Wood Dale Illinois area with the best window services since 1987!  However, one of the problems we always see is cracked windows that have gone on too long and cannot be saved.  If you have a crack in your window there are several reasons to get repaired or replaced as soon as you can:

  • Loss of Insulation – When a window cracks air can get through easily. This means that cold or hot air can pass through the crack making the room the window is colder in the winter and warmer in the summer.
  • Water – Even if the seal around your window is not the best, water still runs down to the base of your window where it is designed to handle it. Cracks mean that there is another way for water to go, and that way can lead it to where the window was not designed to handle water.
  • Dirt – Pollen, dirt and other particles floating in the air outside are often small enough to make it through a crack in your window. This means a lot more cleaning on your part, and dealing with allergies as well.
  • Insects – Windows keep more than the elements out. Insects have a bad habit of finding small holes to get into your home, and a crack in your window can be a great way for small insects like ants, spiders, and others inside.

 

Dickson Contractors has been serving the Wood Dale area with the best siding service for over 30 years!  We are the experts in siding repair, replacement, and installation.  One of the most important things we can tell you about siding is that you should never rip the siding off the home when it is coming off.  Doing this can actually damage the siding more. One of the best things though is vinyl siding.  You can learn more about siding below but here are some benefits to vinyl siding for your home:

  1. Vinyl siding is very durable, it can withstand high winds and resist heat, moisture, and cold. Never changing its appearance, even after a strong storm.
  2. Vinyl Siding is cheaper to own, install, and maintain over time.
  3. Vinyl siding is very diverse when it comes to your choices. Vinyl siding comes in many different colors or textures that best suit the feel of your home. Vinyl can mimic the look of stone, wood, and slate. Homeowners do not have to compromise on beauty when it comes to vinyl siding.
  4. Vinyl siding does not need to be overly maintained. You never need to repaint and it can be cleaned off with water and a mild soap once a year. It will not crack or rot.  
  5. Wood requires upkeep not only with pain to make sure that there are no holes or cracks which will only increase over time.

Best Roof In The Neighborhood

I just had a new roof installed and added Dickson to my quote list on the recommendation of my neighbor who had their tear-off roof done with Dickson about 15 years earlier.
They were not the lowest quote but I was able to see when I met with Jim that they take the time to do things right. We took a short walk in my neighborhood to choose the roof color and all the options were shown from the start.
This year has been crazy for weather so Jim called me a day before installation to confirm the day works for me. The crew arrived at 7:00am and got to work right away.When the crew was done, they cleaned up everything around the house and made sure every nail was gone. That was so important to me because I have a dog and he runs free in my backyard.
Overall, they were very neat, professional and took pride in their work as if my house was their own. I also know they will answer the phone if I ever have a problem.
I would use them again and recommend them too.
Now I have the best-looking roof in the neighborhood!!!

Wonderful

Working with Dickson has been wonderful. We received new windows and siding on the 2nd floor of our home and we have received nothing but compliments on the work. Jim (the project manager) constantly checked in on the job and was available to answer questions when needed. The crew was professional and hardworking. The price was incredibly reasonable. We plan to use them again for the second phase of our exterior remodeling.

Spectacular To Work With

Dickson did our windows and a repair to our roof as well. Hands down, from start to finish they were spectacular to work with! Everyone did a fantastic job and were very cleanly and thorough!

Great Job

I wanted to make sure you were aware of the project that Mark completed. First It was a rough idea by a grizzled old coot. And Mark made it happen just like I wanted, only maybe a little better.

Mark did a great job and I am very appreciative.
