In the 20 years of A.B. Edward’s existence, we have completed more than 36,000 projects for more than 10,000 clients. Some of them took us only a few hours to complete, while others involved completing all the exterior elements in large houses. However, the variety of projects has made us boast an extremely interesting portfolio, an example of which you will find below.
For many years, roofing had been our core business. So far, our roofers had completed over 6,000 roofing jobs across the Chicago North Shore Area – just check our project map! All the projects we do are done with safety and quality in mind. Therefore, every roof replacement in Glenview, Evanston or Highland Park we do involves use of top-notch materials from manufacturers such as GAF, DaVinci Roofscapes, Brava, and Owens Corning.
Asphalt shingles are the most popular roofing material we use in our projects – approximately 65% of the roofs installed by A.B. Edward was produced by GAF. Shingles are a great compromise between aesthetic appeal, low initial cost and great longevity, as they usually last for 25-35 years with proper and regular maintenance.
Even though natural cedar is becoming less popular than it used to be a decade ago, some homeowners still want to install new cedar shakes on their homes. With this in mind, as a Winnetka cedar roofing contractor, each year we serve dozens of homeowners. Some of our cedar roofing projects are literally stunning!
Since 2008, our roofing teams have installed more than 100 composite cedar and slate roofs across the Chicago North Shore. Due to the superior formulas, composite roofing shingles are virtually lifetime solution. For the price similar to natural cedar shakes, you gain the realistic, lightweight and long-lasting roofs. DaVinci Roofscapes and Brava had really outperformed genuine cedar many years ago.
While being one of the most durable and long-lasting roofing materials, PVDF-coated galvanized steel seems to be also one of the most environmentally-friendly technologies on the market. Variety of colors, lifespan up to 60 years and timeless aesthetics make metal roofing an astonishing choice for people with high expectations and needs.
There is no long lasting roof without properly functioning drainage system. Therefore, our roofers do their best to make sure that gutters we install are as efficient as possible. Since year 2003 we installed more than 800 gutter systems for our clients in locations such as Deerfield, Winnetka and Lake Forest. It doesn’t matter if you want to install copper k-style gutters or maybe plastic european ones – A.B. Edward is always the best contractor to do that.
We have to admit, that most of our gutter jobs is just a gutter maintenance in Chicago North Shore Area. Every year, more than 200 repeating and new customers call us to schedule their fall maintenance. We clean and take out the leaves and debris to unclog the drainage. However, maintenance is sometimes not enough, that’s why we do also offer gutter and downspout replacement and repair services.
Even the most sophisticated house design will not express its charm truly without aesthetically finished exterior walls. Siding, also known as wall cladding, may take on various forms. Our siding experts have an extensive experience of working with multiple materials. We completed dozens of James Hardie siding installation projects, but worked also with vinyl and natural wood. As a result of our partnership with North Shore Sheet Metals, we started installing ACM wall panels in Chicago North Shore Area.
According to research, installation of James Hardie fiber cement siding is one of the best investments in property value. Fibrocement is considered as a durable, long lasting and realistic siding material for a great price. James Hardie is our primary option recommended to most of our residential clients.
There’s no other siding material that charms people as much as natural wood does. With using premium-grade cedar, pine, cypress or redwood, we can achieve a unique, unrepatable house curb appeal. We guarantee, that nobody in the world will have the same house elevation as you.
ACM Wall Panels are an exclusive choice for homeowners seeking for contemporary, elegant and long lasting house elevation. With use of premium-grade aluminum and coating with 35 years warranty, in cooperation with North Shore Sheet Metals we offer the ultimate siding material. Say definitive “no” to fading, warping and cracking.
We had a chance to participate in multiple complex stone- and brickwork projects. Our specialists spent thousands of hours on tuck pointing, bricklaying, sanding and cutting different types of veneers and bricks. Therefore, we can assure you that we can handle any kind of job you have for us.Â
Our masons have extensive experience with using all types of bricks, including clinker, shale, silicate, and concrete bricks. We have also completed multiple brick restorations, which required precision and expertise.
For more than 22 years, we have been working with natural and artificial stone as well. Our masons completed hundreds of projects with use of limestone, sandstone, flagstone and slate. With lifts capable of lifting over 6000 lbs, we can easily restore even the biggest slabs on chimneys and parapet walls.
We are also experienced with carpentry – both structural and decorative. Our carpenters do decking projects, porch and balcony remodeling as well as roof truss reconstruction. When working, our professionals use only the best materials available, produced by renowned manufacturers such as Azek, Trex, and Timbertech.
