The 2025 Roofing Season Is Here — How to Lock In Project Schedules Before Peak Demand

Spring is here, and that means the 2025 roofing season is officially underway across Chicago and the surrounding suburbs. As temperatures rise and snow clears off flat roofs, building owners, property managers, and general contractors are racing to line up their projects — and avoid the delays that come with summer’s peak demand.If you’re planning a commercial, industrial, or public roofing project this year, now is the time to take action. Here’s why acting early matters — and how TECHO Roofing can help you stay ahead of the rush.

Why Roofing Season Demand Spikes in Late Spring and Summer

The roofing industry in Chicago follows a seasonal pattern. From March to early November, crews are in full swing — but peak months (May–August) often bring long lead times, material delays, and packed schedules.

Some key reasons for the spike:

- Warmer, drier weather allows more projects to be completed

- Storm season brings emergency repairs and insurance claims

- Public sector bids often release in Q1 with tight summer deadlines

- School and government roofing is scheduled during summer closures


3 Reasons to Lock in Your Project Schedule Now

1. Secure Labor and Material Availability
With high demand and supply chain fluctuations, early scheduling helps ensure the materials you need (TPO, mod bit, EPDM, etc.) and qualified labor are available when your project is ready to go.

2. Get Better Pricing
As the schedule fills up, prices often rise. Booking early may give you access to better rates before peak season markup kicks in.

3. Avoid Emergency Situations
Delaying roof work can lead to problems when storms roll in — especially if your roof already shows signs of wear, ponding, or seam separation.

Plan Ahead for Public and MBE Projects
If you’re bidding on Capital Development Board (CDB) or municipal roofing work, securing your MBE participation early is crucial. TECHO Roofing is a certified MBE contractor and can support your team by:

- Procuring and delivering roofing materials
- Providing qualified project supervision
- Assisting with documentation and compliance
