Bucktown shares Wicker Park’s brick-multi-flat housing reality but adds a heavy modern-infill component along The 606 trail. Brick 2-3 flats need parapet and tuckpointing-aware roofing. Modern infill homes need rooftop deck-integrated flat roofs. We handle both. Triple-licensed for City of Chicago tear-off permits.

Bucktown’s housing stock is split between historic brick 2-flats and 3-flats (almost always with flat parapet roofs requiring modified bitumen or TPO replacement) and modern post-1990 infill homes (typically with low-slope architectural flat roofs designed to support rooftop owner decks). We handle both — and coordinate the tuckpointing and masonry work that brick multi-flats often need alongside the membrane replacement.
Yes. The 606 trail frontage in Bucktown has heavy concentration of modern infill single-family and townhome construction with rooftop owner decks. We replace the flat roof membrane, install proper deck pedestal systems, coordinate cable-railing system attachment to the parapet, and ensure integrated drainage to existing scuppers and downspouts. The roof and the deck are one system — we treat them that way.
We serve all of Bucktown including 60622 (the southern portion bordering Wicker Park) and 60647 (the northern portion extending toward Logan Square and along The 606 trail). Adjacent areas like Wicker Park, East Village, and West Town are also served.
Bucktown and Wicker Park share the same historic brick 2-3 flat housing stock and the same flat-roof, parapet, tuckpointing reality on those buildings. The main difference: Bucktown has a heavier post-1990 modern infill component, particularly along The 606 trail, with rooftop deck-integrated flat roofs. Wicker Park has a heavier industrial loft conversion component along Milwaukee and the railroad corridors. We handle both housing types in both neighborhoods.
Yes. Modern Bucktown infill homes often have rooftop owner decks, skylight clusters, and integrated drainage that all interface with the membrane. We coordinate deck pedestal placement, skylight reset and flashing, and cable-railing system attachment to the parapet — all as part of one integrated project. Decking contractors and skylight specialists are scheduled to dovetail with our membrane work.
