The origins of affordable roofing in Kankakee, IL.
A change in the industry led to the world’s first sustainable roofing product.
In 1988, our founders, brothers Mike and Todd Feazel, started a roofing business. For the next 25 years, they learned everything there is to know about roofing. Soon, the company grew into one of the largest, most successful roofing companies in the United States. During those 25 years, Mike and Todd witnessed several changes in the industry that set them on the path to creating Roof Maxx.
Changes in oil refining reduced the amount of available asphalt. This meant that roofing manufacturers were forced to include less asphalt in shingles, decreasing their lifespan and effectiveness. Consequently, there was less quality affordable roofing in places like Kankakee, IL. The brothers sold their successful roofing company and turned their attention to creating a sustainable solution to costly roof replacement.
My brother and I could see the staggering number of roofs at risk across the country and wanted to do something about it. Now, through Roof Maxx, we’re looking out for asphalt roofs, the people under them, their hard-earned money and the planet.

CEO, Roof Maxx
We’re dedicated to providing affordable roofing in Kankakee, IL.
It wasn’t long after selling their roofing company that Roof Maxx was born. The brothers partnered with Battelle Laboratories, the nation’s largest research and development company, to create a roof rejuvenation treatment made from a micro-beaded, 100% naturally plant-based oil. This revolutionary product extends the lifespan of a roof by five years by replacing the necessary oil found in asphalt shingles. Best of all, it costs just 20% of a total roof replacement.
Today, Roof Maxx has spread to 400 cities in more than 40 states and has helped home and business owners enjoy affordable roofing options. We’re excited to have Marty Worby as one of our local Roof Maxx dealers. Marty and his team have been in the roofing business since 1990 and have been with Roof Maxx since the beginning.
