We are a fully licensed roofing contractor in Montgomery with crews working the whole village, from the old mill streets near the Fox River to the newest permits in Marquis Pointe. We confirm which county your address sits in before anything else, because here that is a real question.
As your roofing company in Montgomery, Storm Guard covers residential replacement on 2000s subdivision homes, repairs on the pre-war housing in the mill core, industrial roofing along Route 31, and the gutters and siding that fail alongside a worn roof.
The median home here dates to around 2004, so most of our residential work is a first replacement: the original builder shingle has reached its service life and the flashing and ventilation details deserve correcting while the roof is open.
We handle commercial roofing in Montgomery across the retail corridors and the large industrial floorplates on the Route 31 side of the village, where low-slope membrane systems need a crew that works on them regularly.
We maintain, repair, and install gutter systems that keep roof water moving away from the foundation, which matters on the older houses close to the Fox River where grade is tight and basements are unforgiving.
We install and repair siding that suits the street, whether that is a 2000s subdivision elevation or an older home in the mill district that deserves a profile with some restraint.
Our team is dedicated to delivering warranty-backed service with meticulous attention to detail. We make sure your windows meet the highest standards for quality and performance.
Storms here get logged under two different counties, which slows some contractors down. Call us and the emergency tarp goes on first, paperwork second.
One street in this village sits in Kane County and the next sits in Kendall, which is where other contractors get the paperwork wrong. The National Weather Service logged one-inch hail just northwest of Montgomery in the March 2026 storms, and both counties were hit during the record 32-tornado derecho of July 15, 2024. We confirm your county before the roof inspection, so the file behind any storm damage roof repair matches the record your carrier pulls. Call (630) 216-8297.
The whole project stays transparent, from the first photographed inspection through to the final magnet sweep of the driveway.
Every slope and penetration gets inspected and photographed, and we record which county the address sits in so your file matches the storm records your carrier pulls.
Our roofing contractors provide an honest, itemized estimate covering labor, materials, tear-off, and disposal, with any deck repair priced before we start rather than added later.
We install the full system to manufacturer specification, including ice and water membrane at the eaves and valleys, which matters in a region that averages close to 28 inches of snow a season.
A final inspection walked with you, a clean site, and a documented file with warranty registration you can hand to an insurer or a buyer years from now.
On a 2004 subdivision roof the real choice is a like-for-like architectural asphalt against a heavier impact-rated product. Nearer the mill district, synthetic rubber slate keeps the original look, and metal roofing takes care of low-pitch sections and commercial canopies.
As your go-to roofer in Montgomery, we cover the whole village: 2000s subdivision tear-offs, pre-war repairs near the river, new construction punch lists, and industrial low-slope work. Call us today for a consultation.
It matters for paperwork, not for the roof itself. Montgomery is the only village in the Fox Valley split between Kane and Kendall counties, so one street can be recorded in Kane while the next is in Kendall. That affects which county assessor and permit process applies and which county a National Weather Service storm event is logged under, which occasionally causes friction on an insurance claim. We confirm the county on every job and document accordingly.
Most roofs give warning before they leak. These are the ones worth acting on.
The question is whether the shingle is damaged in one place or worn out everywhere.
Yes. The National Weather Service logged one-inch hail two miles northwest of the village during the March 2026 storms, and both Kane and Kendall counties were struck during the July 15, 2024 derecho that produced a record 32 confirmed tornadoes across the local forecast area. Kane County also took a February tornado outbreak on February 27, 2024, including an EF-1 at Geneva, which is unusual enough that it caught most homeowners with no plan for it.
Two, and you get both in writing at completion.
Yes. Around 16 percent of local housing predates 1970 and a small share predates 1940, concentrated near River and Mill Streets around the 1853 mill building that has been on the National Register since 1979. Those lots sit tight to the water with very little grade, so the priority there is getting roof water into a gutter that can carry it and away from a foundation that cannot take it.
Ice dams are the main winter risk. The nearest long-term station at Aurora averages close to 28 inches of snow across about 17 snow days a season, and repeated freeze and thaw cycling backs meltwater up under the shingles at the cold eave. The fix is attic insulation and ventilation plus ice and water membrane at the eaves and valleys, not simply new shingles over the same problem.
Within a few days. Insurers generally expect prompt notice and reasonable steps to prevent further damage, and hail evidence gets harder to tie to a specific date over time. An inspection also gives you a dated file tied to the correct county, which matters here more than most places when a carrier looks up the storm.
One day for most single-family homes here. Larger homes, steeper pitches, multiple existing layers, or premium materials extend it to two to five days. New construction and punch-list work in an active subdivision is scheduled around the builder so nobody is working over anybody.
It comes down to roof area, pitch, material, and what the deck looks like once the old roof is off. We measure the roof rather than estimating from the curb, tell you what we find underneath, and give you an itemized price with financing available if the timing is difficult.
Yes. Industrial land makes up about 15 percent of this village, including the roughly four million square feet of former Caterpillar plant on 360 acres, now operating as multi-tenant industrial on Route 31. We install and service low-slope TPO, EPDM, and modified bitumen systems, run roof surveys and maintenance programs, and phase work by section so operations continue.
Unless otherwise noted, each use of "Storm Guard," “us,” “we,” or “our” throughout Stormguardrc.com collectively refers to both the Storm Guard brand and the Storm Guard Franchise System, which is made up almost exclusively of independently owned and operated franchise locations.
