It all started in 1964 when firefighter, Leroy (Bud) Woodruff, began learning the sheet metal trade while working with Sweets Sheet Metal in Wilmette, IL. In 1969, while still employed full-time at the Winnetka Fire Department, he took his passion further and began contracting business from his garage. He enlisted his three sons in the family business and put them to work climbing ladders and learning the trade. With his meticulous attention to detail, the company continued to grow and Bud furthered his experiences while working on some of the North Shore's finest homes. In 1984, Bud moved his business out of the garage and to his first shop in Glenview, IL, and later bought his first building in Lake Bluff, IL. He retired from the fire department in 1989 and began working for his small business full-time. To continue the legacy Bud started, his three sons took over the business and began expanding their expertise to include a wide range of exterior construction applications.
"He's done "Siding Installation or Repair" - I had many quotes. He came out: he was very clear n his quote. he got the job done quickly and was BY FAR better (in every category) than the other 5 contractors who also bid on the job!"

"I was contacted very quickly, told Eric what was required and received a quote. We accepted the quote, but when it came to doing the work, painting wasn t included, only staining in the price quoted even though we discussed it and 2 samples were provided when we started the job (one for paint and one for stain)The job was done over the course of weeks rather than days. We ended up painting ourselves. Very disappointed in the customer service aspect. I would not recommend."

Most homeowners insurance policies cover emergency roof tarping following covered events like storms or fallen trees. Insurance companies classify this as "mitigation" because it prevents additional damage to your home's structure and interior. Keep all receipts and document the condition of the roof with photos. If possible, contact your insurance provider before arranging the tarping installation, as some have preferred vendors or specific requirements. Remember that your policy deductible will apply, so factor this into your budget.
A properly installed roof tarp is effective for up to 90 days. Environmental factors like UV exposure, wind, and precipitation gradually degrade the tarp. In regions with severe weather, the effective lifespan may be considerably shorter. Professional roofers recommend arranging permanent repairs well before reaching this 90-day threshold. Leaving a roof tarp installation beyond this timeframe significantly increases the risk of additional water infiltration and structural complications.
Emergency roof tarping costs 50% to 100% more than a scheduled service. For a 1,500-square-foot area, standard professional tarping ranges from $1,050 to $3,000, while an emergency service for the same area costs between $1,500 and $4,200. This premium reflects after-hours labor rates, expedited response, and immediate availability. Weekend and holiday hours or severe weather emergencies command the highest premiums. When possible, scheduling a service a day or two in advance can yield substantial savings.
