Commercial Roofing at the Crossroads of I-55 and I-355
Bolingbrook is one of the largest suburbs southwest of Chicago, straddling the border of Will and DuPage Counties with a population of over 75,000. Its position at the interchange of I-55 and I-355 has made it a natural hub for distribution, logistics, and commercial development. The village's business-friendly environment has attracted a wide range of industrial parks, office complexes, and retail destinations that all depend on reliable commercial roofing to protect their operations and investments.
Windward Roofing & Construction has served the Bolingbrook market for decades, bringing over 40 years of commercial roofing experience to the village's diverse mix of building types. Whether it is a 200,000-square-foot distribution center along I-55, a retail storefront at The Promenade Bolingbrook, or a multi-tenant office building on Boughton Road, our crews deliver roofing solutions engineered for performance and longevity in northern Illinois weather conditions.
Bolingbrook's Distribution and Logistics Hub
The I-55 and I-355 interchange gives Bolingbrook direct access to Chicago, Joliet's I-80 logistics corridor, and the broader Chicagoland expressway network. This connectivity has fueled steady growth in distribution and warehouse facilities throughout the village and its surrounding business parks. Companies choose Bolingbrook for its central location, proximity to intermodal rail yards in Joliet and Elwood, and access to a large suburban workforce.
These logistics and distribution buildings present unique roofing challenges. Large roof footprints require carefully planned drainage systems, and constant truck traffic around loading docks creates vibration that can stress roof membranes and flashings over time. Windward's project teams understand these demands. We design and install flat roofing systems with reinforced membrane attachment, enhanced wind uplift ratings, and drainage solutions sized for the scale of modern distribution facilities. Our phased construction approach allows warehouse operations to continue uninterrupted while we work on adjacent roof sections.
Retail, Office, and Mixed-Use Properties
Bolingbrook's commercial landscape extends well beyond industrial parks. The village is home to major retail destinations like The Promenade Bolingbrook and Boughton Ridge, along with growing commercial corridors along Route 53 and Boughton Road. These properties serve tens of thousands of shoppers and workers daily, and a roof leak at a retail center or office complex can disrupt tenants, damage inventory, and create liability concerns for property owners.
