Our Story

Owner Brad Locke has been in the business for more than 15 years, starting in 2006 when he established Brad’s Home Improvement. The business was known as Locke’s Roofing and Siding for many years, but Brad decided he wanted to expand his services to provide overall home improvement projects. This led to the name change, though Brad and our team still specialize in residential and commercial roofing and siding.

We are a locally-owned and operated business that is backed by the credibility we’ve accrued over the years from serving both new and returning customers in the community. We create personable relationships with our clients because we want them to feel like they’re more than just a business transaction. Our goal is to build our reputation around our high quality work and excellent customer service.

Brad’s Home Improvement specializes in the installation and repair of siding, roofing, and gutter guards, but we also provide remodeling, pressure washing, deck building, and more. Our team is made up of reliable employees who perform high quality work in a timely manner. We hope that when we’re finished, you not only love the quality of our workmanship, but trust us enough to call us for additional home improvement projects.

We’re looking forward to partnering with Peoria County, Fulton County, Henry County, Warren County, Mercer County, and the surrounding areas to continue providing our community with excellent roofing, siding, and gutter guards services. For more information about our services, contact Brad’s Home Improvement at (309) 371-8537 or stop by to visit and learn more.

FAQ

When is payment due for services?

Do you install metal and shingle roofs, and what materials do you use?
