Family-Owned Roofing, Siding & Gutters on the Southside

Style Exteriors by Corley is a family-owned roofing, siding and gutter contractor based in Oak Lawn, Illinois. We serve homeowners across Chicago’s South Side and the south and southwest suburbs with honest recommendations, fair pricing and workmanship we stand behind.

 

How Style Exteriors Got Started

Bill Corley founded Style Exteriors in 2017 with a simple idea: homeowners on the Southside deserve an exterior contractor they can trust the same way they trust a good neighbor.

 

Too many homeowners had dealt with contractors who pushed work they didn’t need, buried costs in fine print or disappeared after the check cleared. We set out to do the opposite: show up when we say we will, explain everything clearly and charge a fair price for quality work.

 

That approach caught on. In 2018, our first full year, we served more than 400 homeowners. Today our team includes dedicated sales, production, quality control and office staff, led by President Bill Corley and General Manager/Vice President Patrick McGowan. We’ve grown, but we still run the business the way we started it.

 

Our Mission

Changing the way neighborhoods are Styled, one home at a time.

 

Every roof, siding and gutter project we complete adds to the look, value and protection of the neighborhoods we serve. We want every customer to feel heard, respected and confident they made the right call, long after the crew pulls away.

 

The Principles We Live By

Don’t Lie, Don’t Cheat, Don’t Steal

It sounds basic because it should be. We tell you what we find, even when the answer is “you don’t need a new roof yet.” We never inflate damage, pad an invoice or cut corners where you can’t see them.

 

Lead with Integrity

We do the right thing when no one is watching. That means following manufacturer installation specs, owning our mistakes and making them right, and keeping every promise we make, big or small.

 

Put the Customer First

Your home, your budget and your timeline come first. We answer your questions in plain language, keep you updated throughout the project and never pressure you into a decision.

 

Our Core Values

Our six core values guide how our team works every day, from the first inspection to the final walkthrough.

 

Safety: Everyone Goes Home

Safety comes first on every job site. Our crews follow safe work practices to protect our team, your family and your property, so everyone goes home safe at the end of the day.

 

Communicative: Simple and Complete Information

You’ll always know where your project stands. We give you clear, complete information about your estimate, schedule, materials and next steps, without the jargon.

 

Accountable to Process: Everyday Progress through Process

Great results come from a proven process. From inspection and estimate to installation and quality control, we follow the same steps on every project so the work is done right and stays on track.

 

Solution Based: Don’t React to Problems, Present Solutions

Exterior projects don’t always go exactly as planned. When something comes up, like hidden damage under old shingles, we don’t just point out the problem. We bring you clear options and a recommended solution.

 

Team Focused: We Are Better Together

Our sales, production, quality control and office teams work together on every project. That teamwork means fewer handoff issues and a smoother experience for you.

 

Professional: Be the Expert and Present Accordingly

Our team knows roofing, siding and gutters inside and out, and we carry ourselves that way. Expect knowledgeable answers, respectful crews and a clean job site.
