Company Profile For Affordable Roofing
Affordable was founded in January 1980 by two roofers, Bill Wade and Bill Triscila. They believed they could provide their customers with “A Quality Roof at an Affordable Price”.
The business grew and Mike Hess joined Affordable in 1982. Because of his desire and drive to succeed, he was asked to join the partnership in January of 1986.
Today, as in the beginning, service is the cornerstone of Affordable Roofing. They’ve grown to become Fox Valley’s leading retrofit residential & light commercial roofing company.

Many building and homeowners have been dragged into litigation involving uninsured roofing contractors. Also, if a contractor is not properly insured, you may be liable for accidents that occur on your property.
To become a State of Illinois Licensed Roofing Contractor you must carry minimum liability and property damage insurance.
Affordable Roofing, Inc. follows through on our commitment to "Quality" with our extensive insurance coverage which goes above and beyond State mandated minimums.
Choosing a Roofing Contractor
When choosing your contractor please consider the following:
- Check for a permanent place of business, telephone number, tax identification number and, where applicable, a business license.
- Check to see if the contractor is properly licensed or bonded. Some states have specific licensing requirements, and other do not. Your state’s Department of Professional Regulation or Licensing Board will have this information.
- Insist on a detailed, written proposal and examine it for complete descriptions of the work and specifications.
- Call your local Better Business Bureau or Department of Professional Regulation to check for possible complaints filed against the contractor.
- Keep healthy skepticism about the lowest bid. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Many fly-by-night contractors’ below-cost bids seem attractive, but these contractors often are uninsured and perform substandard work. Remember, price is only one of the criteria for selecting a roofing contractor. Professionalism, experience and quality workmanship also should weigh heavily in your decision.
