Roof Replacement in Peoria and Central Illinois

A roof that’s cracked, curling, or well past its expected lifespan usually isn’t a one-time repair away from being fine, and knowing when to stop patching and start planning for a new roof can be hard to judge on your own.

Here’s what that looks like in practice:

  • Licensed, bonded, and insured for residential roofing across Central Illinois
  • GAF Master Elite and CertainTeed Select Shingle Roofer certified
  • Honest repair or replacement guidance, never a bigger job than you need

roof repair and replacement

Signs You Need a Roof Replacement

Some roofs fail all at once. Most just wear down gradually until repairs stop making sense. Watch for:

  • The majority of your shingles are cracked, curling, or warped
  • Your roof is past 20 years old
  • It looks visibly worn or aged from the ground
  • Moss or algae is growing across the surface
  • Light is visible through your attic, or water is actively leaking in
  • The roof deck has started to sag

If you’re seeing more than one of these, a replacement is likely worth discussing, even if no single issue feels urgent on its own.

What a New Roof Actually Gets You

A new roof isn’t just about fixing what’s broken. Here’s what it actually gives you.

  • Restored protection. No more managing a growing list of small failures on an aging roof – one leak here, one loose shingle there – that eventually cost more than the replacement would have.
  • Better energy efficiency. An old roof and failing attic ventilation both let conditioned air escape, showing up as higher heating and cooling bills.
  • Real curb appeal and resale value. Roof replacements are consistently cited as one of the higher-return home improvement projects, though the exact return depends on your market and materials, so treat any specific percentage you see as a general guide, not a guarantee.
  • Warranty protection. Real coverage behind the work for years afterward, both from us and from the manufacturer.

Roofing Materials, Styles and Options

Asphalt Shingle Types

  • 3-tab shingles. The most budget-friendly option, with a flatter, simpler profile.
  • Architectural (dimensional) shingles. A thicker, more textured profile with a longer expected lifespan than 3-tab, the most common choice for homeowners today.
  • Luxury shingles. The heaviest, most durable asphalt option, styled to mimic slate or wood shake at a fraction of the cost.

Other Roofing Materials

  • Metal roofing. A longer lifespan and lower long-term maintenance than asphalt, available in standing seam panels, exposed fastener panels, and metal shingles styled to resemble traditional materials.

Not Sure You Need a Full Replacement?

A full roof replacement is a bigger decision than a repair, and we won’t recommend one you don’t actually need. If your roof has isolated damage, a handful of shingles, a single leak, or storm damage limited to one section, a repair is often enough to get years more life out of it.

We’ll walk your roof and tell you honestly where you stand. If a repair really is the better option, we’ll point you to Roof Repair rather than sell you a replacement you don’t need.

why homeowners trust kellyconstruction

Why Homeowners Trust Kelley Construction With Their Roof Replacement

Kelley Construction Contractors, Inc. is GAF Master Elite-certified and CertainTeed Select Shingle Roofer-certified, credentials that require meeting manufacturer standards that most roofing companies never pursue. A new roof is a significant investment, and those certifications reflect the training and installation standards behind every roof we put on.

Mike Kelley founded this company in 1994 and still stays involved in projects today. On a job as significant as a full roof replacement, you’re working with a team where real decisions are made by people who’ve actually seen your home, not by those passed up a chain of approvals.

Every roof replacement comes with a 1-year workmanship warranty, and every roof gets 5 years, both on top of whatever the manufacturer already covers. Our crews are the same experienced carpenters and estimators we’ve worked with for three decades in Central Illinois.

Licensed, Insured, and Ready to Replace Your Roof

We serve homeowners throughout Peoria and Central Illinois, within about 50 miles of Peoria, with offices in Pekin, Peoria, and Normal, and coverage extending to Bloomington, East Peoria, Dunlap, Bartonville, and Galesburg. Kelley Construction Contractors, Inc. is a fully licensed, bonded, and insured roofing contractor, holding Illinois Unlimited Roofing License #104.015841. We’re also a BBB Accredited Business and a GAF Master Elite certified roofing contractor.

I had two basement windows, that were below ground level, with concrete window wells. The window wells would fill with rain and leak through the windows. I called Kelly Construction, and got an estimate, to remove the windows and wells, then block in the openings. The estimate was good, so I contracted with them to do the job. Austin and Cesar finished the job yesterday, the hottest day of the year. They worked so hard, and were very perfessional. They cleaned up all the mess and left things the way were. I couldn't be happier with the job. I would definitely recommend Kelly Construction.

Kitchen demo and wall removal - great work on everybody's part. Tyler was the sales rep and he secured the contract and gave me excellent pricing. Clint, Carl and Austin did all the work. They set the beam and hauled away the demo PLUS other debris from other work; this was unexpected and appreciated. Fred scheduled; the team was in/out in 2 days. Fred also rerouted an HVAC duct that was in the wall. Another unexpected bonus. After he was done, that new duct looked like it was always there. Many ways Kelley and the staff makes a difference. Its your home and you want people you can trust. These guys are your crew.

Absolutely horrible. I felt like I was doing their job for them. They never communicated, left me in limbo for weeks after I already paid them thousands of dollars, and then couldn't even be bothered to reply to my insurance agent. They didn't even tell me who they were contracting for repairs. Never go with Kelley Construction!

Kelley Construction was professional work from Alex Grant listening to what our thoughts were in repairing decks and installing a fence to providing a quote. Michael Caldwell, the crew lead, was creative in providing solutions along his capable and respectful crew (Craig Nelson, Carl Schoon, and Josh Pettit). I recommend Kelley as a great local provided of general construction.

This is the second time we've had Kelley Construction out to do some work for us, and like last time we couldn't be happier! Travis and Dillon were here straight away first thing in the morning and got right to work. Travis was here for our last job and he was awesome this time just like he was last time, and Dillon was a new face to meet and was also fantastic! Both of them got a pretty tough job done in a very short period of time. This involved roof work in July summer heat, all on a very steep pitch and a 40 foot drop. They were both extremely professional in their work, thorough, and left the job site clean (perhaps cleaner!) than when they arrived. Both of these gentlemen are extremely personable and very easy to talk to as well, and were excellent at explaining everything with the work they did. I can't thank you all enough for delivering on excellent work yet again. There is a reason we go straight to Kelley for all of our needs and don't bother with shopping around for quotes anymore. The rates are extremely fair, and we know we are going to have quality work done every time. Thank you so much!! -Chris Lawrence

--5 Year Update-- Don, via Kelley Construction, remodeled our bathroom 5 years ago. He gets a one-star review for what he did to our window, and for his refusal to stand by his work. He took out the bathroom window and we had a massive thunderstorm that caused water to leak into the wall and down into the kitchen. He came back out and taped a garbage bag to it before refitting it the next day. He reinstalled the window incorrectly, blocked the weeping holes with molding, and created a slant in the frame that caused storm rain to pool, introducing a permanent leak into our house. We did not realize how bad it was until a particularly bad storm that caused the water in the wall to pool onto the kitchen floor. We had roofers investigate leaks, twice, and they sealed up any-and-all seams on the outside and in our attic. It still leaked during bad storms. Finally a window company pointed out the problem and said it was caused by a shoddy window install, and the bathroom window was directly where water entered the wall. So I called Don, and he refused to revisit his work, or even speak to me, and insisted that I only call Kelley Construction. Kelley Construction said in five years they couldn't be sure that it wasn't someone else who screwed up the window, and that there was nothing they could do. I told them that we have been investigating this problem every time theres a storm, had two different roofers here, and FINALLY stopped the leak by wedging washcloths into the bathroom window. Taylor at Kelley Construction "yelled at me to take legal action!" and hung up. Worst contractor experience I've ever had. Also, the sink fell out of our bathroom fixture and Kelley/Don sent me a copy of the receipt: It was a discontinued item that they purchased off Clearance, and it was not (ever) covered by the manufacturer's warranty. I thought we were getting high-quality "Builder-Grade" materials and professionalism with Kelley/Don. I was wrong.

I could not be happier with the work that Don and Austin did to repair the back side of my house. I purchased the home recently and discovered that water had been getting in under the siding for long enough to rot the wood. They spent one long day diagnosing the extent, replacing all of the wood and sealing the entire area up to make it water tight. They were knowledgeable and professional.

We had Kelly Construction replace the flooring in our master bathroom and were very happy with the results. We then called their agent Chip and requested a contract to replace the flooring in our Livingroom, kitchen, 2nd bathroom, and laundry room. He promised they would move everything and put it back in place. Chip sent us Todd and Ian to do the flooring. They totally impressed us with their work ethic and skills. We are fully satisfied with the results of their work and would recommend Kelly Construction to family and friends.

So glad we found Kelley Construction online and that they service Bloomington/Normal.

We will definitely use Kelly Construction again if the need arises for any repairs.

Don and Dave replaced a couple bathroom fans for my wife and me on March 4, 2026. They put plastic down along the path from the front door to the bathrooms to protect carpets. They completed the work in one day, and vacuumed well before leaving. Work also included installation of better venting than had existed previously. Neither original fan was lighted, but (at my wife's insistence) one of the replacement fans has a dimmable LED, and they were able to wire that in to the existing dimmer switch for the vanity light. That fan is also bigger than the original, so they had to enlarge the opening. The work involved accessing the top level attic via a 14 x 21 inch hatch in a closet ceiling, then navigating through a bed of roughly 16 inch deep blown in cellulose insulation -- i.e., you can't see the joists you need to step on to move around the space. Even if I had the requisite knowledge and skills (which I don't), I'm pretty sure if I'd attempted this myself I'd have fallen through a bathroom ceiling. Plus, that level of the attic is cramped, so you have to bend low and then crawl -- on joists -- to get to some areas -- things my aging knees would object to. Don and Dave were personable, and we enjoyed talking with them both. They also had a nice camaraderie with each other, which made for a more pleasant experience for us. I'll add shout outs to Chip, who estimated the work and suggested wiring the fan light into the vanity light dimmer, and to Fred, who managed the scheduling and was patient with our delays due to a family medical issue, my remarkably inefficient work in emptying the closet containing the attic access hatch, and my overly complex measures to protect the adjoining bedroom from cellulose and dust I feared would blow down from the attic (not much did).

There's a good reason Kelley Construction has good Google review numbers! We recently had a number of repairs done on our home, some of which were found during the home inspection when we purchased the house, and some which arose after purchasing the home. One of the latter issues was a leaking vent pipe in an attic, which was slow-dripping onto the kitchen ceiling, and it eventually blistered the drywall and created a hole into the attic. To make matters worse, the ceiling in the kitchen is a custom color paint, and has a textured finish, so not the simplest repair. Travis and Tony both showed up and got straight to work. They were both very fast, efficient, and kept their work areas clean. Above all of that, they're both super nice people and very easy to talk to. They showed a ton of respect to me and our home, and they made sure to check in with me each step of the way during the project to ensure things looked good to me before moving on to the next step. The entire process from start to finish was very easy from scheduling to get an estimate/quote, to scheduling the work itself, and to taking care of the bill. Pricing was very reasonable and fair, and we're relieved to have several inspection issues dealt with and no more holes in the kitchen ceiling! We will definitely be contacting Kelley Construction for all of our future needs (and we already have a number of items on the list we'll be having them take care of later this year!). Thank you so much for great service, and again, big shout out to Travis and Tony, they were fantastic at what they do, and ultra nice folks as well!

Kelly Construction converted a covered deck to a family room for us. We are very pleased with the finished room.

I hope I have the entire list of workers: Austin, Ian, Jerry, Mike, Craig, Dillon, Brody, and especially Don. Don handled all the inside and finishing work. He kept us informed on each step and was professional and respectful to our property. As with all projects, not everything went smoothly, but we felt the glitches were handled and in the end we are very satisfied!

Looking for a Different Kind of Roofing Project?

If your roof’s damage is isolated rather than widespread, a repair might genuinely be enough. Our Roof Repair team can assess whether that’s really your situation before you commit to anything bigger.

If a business property needs a new roof rather than a home, our Commercial Roofing team handles it using systems built for commercial buildings.

Get Your Free Estimate

Whether you already know you need a new roof or just want an honest opinion on the condition of yours, we’ll assess it firsthand and give you a straight answer. You’ll know exactly what a full replacement involves, what materials fit your home and budget, and what our workmanship warranty covers before you commit. A roof replacement is a real investment, and a clear, honest estimate is the right first step, no matter when you decide to move forward. Call or fill out the form below, and we’ll find a time that works for you.

Common Questions About Roof Replacement

How much does a roof replacement typically cost?

It depends on your roof size, the materials you choose, and the extent of any underlying damage, so we won’t quote a number without seeing it. You’ll get a clear, itemized estimate after we assess your roof in person and discuss material options.

Most residential roof replacements are completed in days, not weeks, once work begins. The exact timeline depends on your roof’s size and complexity, and you’ll get a specific estimate with your quote.

No, most homeowners stay in their home throughout a roof replacement. It’s a loud process, especially during tear-off, but you don’t need to vacate the property.

We remove and haul away the old roofing material as part of the job, so you won’t be left with debris or disposal to handle yourself.
