Skip the form. Text the owner.
Most roofing sites make you fill out a form, then a sales rep chases you for days. Not here. You text Matt Brasic, the owner, on his real cell and he takes it from there.

Local, licensed, and priced lower. Because we cut the commission.
No sales-rep commission baked into your quote. That savings goes to you.

A family business. Actually.
TrueRoof started with Matt on roofs and his mom running materials to job sites. Now Matt and his fiancee Becca are building it into the family company they always wanted.
When you text the owner, you are texting this family. We treat your home the way we treat Mom's.
Certified by the manufacturers we install.
Top-tier credentials with every brand we recommend. That means manufacturer-backed warranties on every roof.

The lowest honest price on your roof. Guaranteed.
Most roofers send a salesperson to your kitchen table with a number padded with their commission. We're zero commission. You get our real price straight from the owner, up front, without needing a site-visit.
Our price-match guarantee: show us a written quote from any licensed, insured Illinois roofer and we beat it.
Same scope, same materials, a real apples-to-apples comparison. We put our better price in writing before you sign a thing. And if we genuinely cannot beat it, we tell you straight and point you to the better deal. That is the whole promise.
Zero commissioned sales reps
We do not pay salespeople to sit at your table and talk you into a bigger roof. Nobody on our team earns more by quoting you higher, so there is no commission padding your price. The number you see is the number, not a starting point for a negotiation.
1 owner, no bloat
No sales department. No call center. No door-knocking army. 1 owner pricing roofs by text and a tight crew doing the installs. That low overhead is why our number lands 10 to 15% lower for the same materials and the same work.
Your real price starts with 1 text.
Get 3 bids. Seriously, we insist.
A new roof is a 5-figure decision. Anyone pressuring you to sign today, before you talk to a single other company, is protecting their commission, not your home. Get at least 3 quotes, then compare them line by line.
Ask for the license number. A real roofer hands it over without flinching.
A materials warranty is not the same thing. Ask who fixes a bad install, and for how long.
A local address and a real phone number mean someone answers if a problem shows up in year 3.
Tear-off, disposal, permits, and cleanup belong in the number, not added later as surprises.
Do that with us and any honest competitor side by side, and we are confident you come back. If you don't, you still walked away with a better roof at a fair price. We'd rather be the truthtellers than the closers.

"Don't sleep on Instagram. I found Matt and his team after scrolling one night. He responded within minutes, came out within days. He helped us choose a beautiful Malarkey shingle and his team installed the roof by 2 pm. If you're skeptical about contractors, go with Matt. He will overcommunicate from start to finish."
"Matt was awesome. He took care of everything and everyone who came out to do the work. The guys were professional and fast. They had my entire roof done in 4 hours, everything cleaned up, and were gone so fast, like ninjas. My roof looks amazing."
"Would I recommend him again? I recommend him all the time. Anytime somebody in the Facebook groups asks if anyone knows a roofer, I say yep, I know a great one. Call him, you won't have any trouble."

Insurance claim already approved? Bring it to us.
It happens all the time. The claim gets approved, the check shows up, and the contractor who started it goes quiet.
If your roofer stopped answering or you just lost trust, text Matt. We work from your approved scope, put our price in writing, and overcommunicate from tear-off to final cleanup.
Roofing made simple, in detail.
Text Matt
Tap the button and the message writes itself. Add your address and hit send. Matt personally looks at your roof and gets back to you fast, usually the same day, with real pricing and a plan.
Free inspection, confirmed in person
A TrueRoof inspector gets on the roof and verifies its actual condition. You walk away with a firm, written price. No bait-and-switch, no surprise add-ons. If your roof still has years of life left, we tell you that too. Free either way.
TrueCrew installation, usually a single day
Once you approve your quote and the deposit lands, our install crew shows up with your materials. Most asphalt replacements take 6 to 10 hours. We tarp your landscaping, magnetic-sweep the yard for nails, and haul away every piece of debris.
TrueCare, long after the install
Lifetime materials warranty, manufacturer backed and in writing. 5-year workmanship warranty, backed by us. We check in after the first storm, the first year, and the first big winter. If anything looks off, we come back. We installed it. It is still ours.
How to tell a real roofer from a storm chaser.
Plenty of out-of-town outfits roll through Illinois, sign as many contracts as they can, install fast, then disappear. Here is how to tell a roofer who is still here in 10 years from one who won't be, whether you compare us or anyone else.
| Storm chaser | TrueRoof | |
|---|---|---|
| Where they're from | Out of state, here for the season | Joliet-based since 2017 |
| Illinois roofing license | Often none, or expired | #104.019489 + #105.009527 |
| Pricing | Commissioned rep, padded number, "today only" pressure | Priced by the owner. 10 to 15% lower. Price-match guarantee |
| Warranty | Materials warranty only, no workmanship coverage | Lifetime materials + 5-year workmanship |

Answered before you ask.
How much does a new roof cost in Joliet?
A typical asphalt shingle replacement in Joliet runs $13,000 to $18,000 depending on size, pitch, and shingle choice.
Text Matt your address and he prices your actual roof, not a ballpark. You talk real numbers before anyone steps on your property.
Why do I text instead of filling out a form?
Because forms go to sales teams and texts go to Matt. Most roofing sites collect your info and hand it to a commissioned rep who chases you for a week.
We skipped all of that. You text the owner's actual cell and he answers it himself.
How are you cheaper than other roofers?
We don't pay commissioned sales reps and we don't run a call center. That cuts the 10 to 15% most companies pass on to you.
Same materials, same quality crew, lower overhead. The savings goes back to you instead of into a sales budget.
Do you really price-match competitors?
Yes. Bring us a written quote from any licensed, insured Illinois roofer for the same scope of work and we beat it, in writing.
We compare apples to apples. Same materials, same tear-off, same warranty terms. In the rare case we can't beat it, we tell you straight rather than waste your time.
My insurance claim is already approved. Can you take over?
Yes. We take over approved claims all the time.
Text Matt that your claim is approved. He reviews your approved scope free, puts our price in writing, and takes it from there.
Should I get multiple quotes?
Absolutely. Get at least 3. A roof is a 5-figure decision and you should compare.
Check each quote for an Illinois license number, a written workmanship warranty, local presence, and whether tear-off, disposal, permits, and cleanup are included. We are confident enough in our pricing that we encourage you to shop around first.
Can I get a quote without a salesperson coming to my house?
Yes. Text Matt your address and he reviews your roof and talks real pricing with you by text or a quick call.
We only come out for a free inspection when you want a firm written number. No pitch, no pressure.
Are you a storm chaser?
No. We are locally based in Joliet, licensed in Illinois (#104.019489 and #105.009527), and have been here since 2017.
Storm chasers follow weather across the country, sign as many contracts as they can, install fast, and disappear. We have a Joliet showroom, 2 Illinois licenses, and a 5-year workmanship warranty we actually honor.
How long does a roof replacement take?
Most asphalt shingle replacements take 6 to 10 hours. A single day, in and out.
Larger or more complex roofs can take 2 to 3 days. We give you an exact timeline before work starts.
What warranty do you offer?
Lifetime materials warranty plus a 5-year workmanship warranty.
The materials warranty comes from the manufacturer and transfers if you sell the home. The workmanship warranty covers anything that goes wrong with our installation. We come fix it, free.
What's the next step?
Tap Text the Owner. The message is already written, so add your address and send.
Matt calls or texts back, usually the same day, and sets up your free inspection.
1 text. That is the whole process to start.
