Roofing for Hinsdale's Historic & Custom Homes

Premium Roofing for Historic Homes and Luxury Rebuilds.

Americanstruction serves Hinsdale, IL from our home base in Mokena, roughly half an hour to the south. Hinsdale is two housing markets at once: stately early-1900s homes with slate and cedar rooflines, and a steady flow of high-end teardown rebuilds. Each calls for a different roofing answer, and we scope every project to the home in front of us, not a standard package.

Historic Homes & New Builds

Two Roofing Markets, One Contractor

A large share of Hinsdale's housing was built between the 1870s and 1930s, including Queen Anne, Prairie, Italianate, Colonial Revival, and Tudor homes concentrated in neighborhoods like the Robbins Park Historic District. Replacing a roof on a home like this means careful tear-off, deck and ventilation correction, and materials that respect the original design.

At the same time, Hinsdale sees constant new construction and teardown rebuilds, where the roof is specified to an architect's plans with designer shingles, slate, or metal. We work fluently across both, and we coordinate with homeowners when a property falls under the Village historic preservation review process.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Many Hinsdale homes were built between the 1870s and 1930s with slate, cedar shake, and detailed architectural rooflines. We replicate these aesthetics using genuine slate, natural cedar, and high-end synthetic composite shingles that reproduce the depth and texture of the original material while delivering modern weather performance. We help homeowners select a system that preserves the character of the home and the surrounding streetscape.

Yes. An early-1900s home and a newly built luxury home are two very different roofing projects. Older homes often require careful tear-off, deck inspection, ventilation correction, and material selection that respects the original design. New construction and teardown rebuilds call for designer architectural shingles, standing seam metal accents, or full slate and shake systems specified to the architect's plans. We scope each project to the home rather than applying one standard package.

Yes. Homes designated as landmarks or located within a Hinsdale historic district, such as Robbins Park, may require a Certificate of Appropriateness from the Village Historic Preservation Commission before exterior work begins. We document existing conditions, propose compatible materials, and coordinate with homeowners so the roofing or exterior scope aligns with the Village review requirements.
