Benefits of Using Nations Roof:
Chicago’s metro area grew by about 70,000 residents (0.53%) between 2023 and 2024, reaching nearly 9 million people. This growth is driven by international immigration, which offsets domestic outmigration.
The economy is diverse, with strengths in finance, technology, manufacturing, healthcare, and logistics. Major employers include JPMorgan Chase, United Airlines, Caterpillar, and the University of Chicago. With its strong transportation network and cultural assets, Chicago remains a vital and growing urban hub.
Chicago, Illinois experiences a humid continental climate with hot, humid summers and cold, snowy winters—making it one of the more challenging environments for commercial roofing systems. Summers often bring temperatures in the 80s and 90s, along with frequent thunderstorms, high winds, and the occasional hailstorm. These weather events can damage roof membranes, dislodge flashing, and strain drainage systems. Prolonged exposure to heat and UV rays also causes roofing materials to age more rapidly, potentially leading to cracking, blistering, or degradation of sealants and coatings.
Winters in Chicago are long and harsh, with freezing temperatures, heavy snowfall, and frequent freeze-thaw cycles. Snow and ice accumulation on flat or low-slope commercial roofs can lead to structural stress and increased risk of leaks. Ice dams can form along roof edges, blocking proper drainage and forcing water back under the roofing system. Additionally, freeze-thaw cycles allow water to infiltrate small cracks and expand when frozen, causing further damage to the roof’s surface and underlying structure.
Spring and fall in Chicago bring fluctuating temperatures, strong winds, and periods of heavy rain. These transitional seasons can lead to thermal expansion and contraction of roofing components, increasing wear on seams, joints, and fasteners. Debris from wind or falling leaves can also clog drains and gutters, contributing to water pooling and potential leaks. Given the city’s weather extremes, commercial roofs in Chicago require high-performance materials, regular inspections, and proactive maintenance.
