Horizon restoration did a great job in getting our roof claim approved by our insurance. They worked hard to make sure the insurance company covered the cost of the roof and gutters. AJ was always on top of things and kept us informed every step of the way. We recommended them to our family member who also signed with AJ and Horizon Restoration due to how well they managed our project. We would highly recommend them for their roofing expertise, knowledge with insurance companies and over all communication during the project. In addition to this the roof looks great and their team did a great job on the roof and the clean up.
Overall great experience! Julius was fantastic to work with. He was very attentive to all the details and always there to answer questions and get the job done right. Whenever he said he would take care of something, he took care of it. The crew did a fantastic job and the workmanship was top notch. I can not believe how quickly they did a full replacement of our sheathing and roof shingles and still did a high quality job. They left the worksite spotlessly clean. We are getting lots of compliments from our neighbors on how good our roof looks. If you want your roof done right, go with this company.
Paul, thank you so much to you and your entire team for our beautiful new roof. We couldn't have made a better choice. Thank you for all your help with the insurance paperwork and for making the whole process so smooth. We highly recommend Chicago Horizon Restoration Roofing Company to anyone looking for quality work and outstanding service! Pamela & Steve
Horizon Restoration did an amazing job on my roof! Paul was fantastic to work with. Super responsive, most important he was honest and really cared about making sure everything was done right. He made what could have been a stressful process feel easy. The crew was fast, clean and very professional. I’m really happy with the result and would definitely recommend them.
Our contact at Horizon Restoration was Art. He worked with our insurance company for over a year and a half to have our roof and siding replaced. The other persons behind the scenes at the office who were instrumental in assisting Art were Paul-Manager, Ruby-who was in charge of all correspondence, Jack-Install Manager who coordinated the crews for both the siding and roof, Claudio-On Site Roofing Manager and Mike-On Site Siding Manager. They worked seamlessly as a team and were always available when we had any questions or concerns. It is so nice to have Horizon Restoration going to bat for us. Especially Art whose experience and knowledge was so key in getting our insurance company to approve the replacement of our roof and siding. Our roof and siding look so nice we highly recommend Art and Horizon Restoration to anyone in need of their services. Thank you Art and Horizon for everything.
Quick Summary:
Horizon Restoration is a roofing and exterior restoration contractor based on Chicago’s Northwest Side, serving Palatine and the surrounding suburbs. We focus on roofing, siding, gutters, and storm damage restoration, and we document storm damage with photos and a written report for your insurance claim. Call (773) 993-0998 to request a free inspection and free property report.
If you are looking into storm damage repair or a roof replacement in Palatine, the first thing you probably want to know is who you are dealing with. Horizon Restoration is based at 7122 W Higgins Ave on Chicago’s Northwest Side and serves Palatine along with nearby Arlington Heights, Schaumburg and Buffalo Grove. That is a straightforward answer, and it matters more than marketing language.
Horizon Restoration is a restoration contractor. The core work is exterior property restoration: roofing, siding, gutters, and repairs tied to storm damage. Much of that work overlaps with insurance claims, and that overlap is where most homeowners feel lost. Knowing what a shingle failure looks like is one thing. Documenting that damage clearly, with photos and a written report, is a large part of what we do.
Here is the part worth slowing down on. Report storm damage to your insurance company promptly, as most policies require, but don’t let the claim get ahead of the facts. Once a claim is open, the record starts forming around whatever gets documented at that moment. If nobody has looked closely at the roof, the siding, and the gutters, real damage can go unlisted. Get the property inspected early, understand what is there, then decide how to proceed.
That is the purpose of the free inspection and the free property report. The inspection is a hands-on look at the exterior. The property report puts what was found into a written form you can hold onto and read at your own pace. Neither one obligates you to file anything or hire anyone.
Horizon Restoration brings manufacturer certifications and a record of quality workmanship to that work. Certifications are not decoration. They reflect training on specific products and installation standards, and they affect how a roof performs years after the crew leaves. Combined with careful documentation, that is the practical value we offer Palatine homeowners who are trying to make a good decision under time pressure.
Horizon Restoration works on the exterior of the home. That means roofing, siding, gutters, and storm damage restoration. These are related systems, not separate projects that happen to sit next to each other. Wind that lifts shingles often loosens gutters at the same time. Hail that bruises a roof can also dent and crack siding on the exposed elevation. Looking at the full exterior rather than one component is part of how the company approaches a property.
The main services available through Horizon Restoration include:
The free inspection is the entry point for most of this work. A Palatine homeowner can call and have the property looked at before committing to anything. The result of that visit is a free property report, a written record of what the inspection found. It is useful on its own, because it gives you something concrete to read instead of a verbal opinion delivered from the driveway.
That report also matters if a claim is involved. Storm damage is not always obvious from the ground. Granule loss, bruised shingles, soft spots in metal, and cracked seals are the kinds of findings that need to be identified and documented so they can be reviewed. Documentation is a core part of our storm damage work.
Insurance deserves its own mention because it changes the shape of a project. A roof replacement paid out of pocket is a purchase decision. A roof replacement tied to a claim involves paperwork, adjuster visits and deadlines. We provide documentation and explain each step, rather than handing you a bid and stepping back; the claim itself stays between you and your insurance company. Our roof insurance claims guide walks through the process.
Quality of installation is the other half of the equation. An approved claim covers the cost; it doesn’t guarantee a quality installation. The finished roof or siding still has to be installed correctly, with proper flashing, fasteners, underlayment, and manufacturer-specified details. Horizon Restoration carries manufacturer certifications, which reflect training and adherence to those installation standards. That matters years later, when the workmanship either holds up through the next round of Illinois weather or it does not.
For Palatine homeowners weighing a roof repair against a roof replacement, the honest answer usually starts with an inspection. Nobody can responsibly tell you which one you need over the phone.
Horizon Restoration’s office is at 7122 W Higgins Ave, Chicago, IL 60656, on the city’s Northwest Side. It is the office behind the roofing, siding, gutter, and storm damage restoration work described on this page, and Palatine homeowners can reach it directly by phone. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM, and Saturday, 9 AM to 2 PM.
The phone number is (773) 993-0998. Calling is the simplest way to ask a question, describe what you are seeing on your roof or siding, and schedule a free inspection. There is no cost for the inspection and no cost for the free property report that follows it.
If you would rather start in writing, the Free Quote form does the same thing. Fill it out with your contact information and a short description of the problem, and we will follow up from there.
The most useful time to make that call is early, right after a storm, alongside reporting the damage to your insurer as your policy requires. A claim filed without documentation puts you in the position of describing damage you have not fully seen. A claim backed by an inspection and a written property report lets you point to specific findings. Those are two very different conversations, and the second one is based on documented facts.
Horizon Restoration documents the damage and does the repair work, so the same team that inspected your home can explain the report and the work involved. The claim itself stays between you and your insurance company.
When you call, it helps to have a few things ready:
None of that is required. It just makes the first conversation shorter and more specific. If you do not know any of it, the inspection is designed to answer those questions for you.
Exterior damage does not improve on its own. A lifted shingle lets water reach the decking. A cracked seal widens. A gutter that is pulling loose starts sending water where it should not go. Getting a written record of the current condition gives you something to act on, whether you move forward with repairs now or simply want to know where your property stands.
Horizon Restoration works across the northwest suburbs and the wider Chicago area. You can see the full list on the Service Areas page.
Free inspection, a written scope you can actually read, and no pressure to sign anything the same day. If we find nothing wrong, we will tell you that too.
No. Horizon Restoration’s office is at 7122 W Higgins Ave on Chicago’s Northwest Side, not in Palatine. We serve Palatine and nearby northwest suburbs such as Arlington Heights, Schaumburg and Buffalo Grove.
Report the damage to your insurer promptly, as most policies require, and get a free inspection and property report early. That way you understand the actual condition of the roof, siding, and gutters, and the damage is documented with photos and a written report. The inspection and report do not obligate you to file or hire. Read our roof insurance claims guide.
Call Horizon Restoration at (773) 993-0998 or request a free quote online. The inspection covers the exterior of the home, and the resulting report puts the findings in writing so you have a record to review before deciding how to proceed.
