It’s that time of year again. Summer parties and weddings are winding down, and the kids are becoming more bookish. Whether you are in charge of a school or you own a residential property, it’s the perfect time to have your roof inspected and tackle any structural issues that exist. While it may be hard to imagine in the hot, dry month of August, the fall season of wind, rain and sleet is soon to follow. It’s best to have your roof fortified when that time arrives.

KC Roofing

We primarily service this Kansas City roofing territory, with stops in Lenexa, Leawood, Mission, Olathe, Overland Park, Prairie Village and Shawnee. We’ll do residential, commercial or government properties. We have experience working with various types of insurance companies and getting weather-related damage covered. With more than 10 years of local roofing experience, we’re not some fly-by-night operation out to get your money. Instead, we are an integral part of this community with a readiness to give you a quality roof at an affordable price.

As you search for expert roofers in KC, you may come across several different certifying programs. One of the best out there is the program sanctioned by leading shingle manufacturer GAF/ELK. “Because of GAF’s stringent standards, only the top 3% of all roofing contractors have qualified as Master Elite™ contractors,” the company states on their website. In this blog, we’ll answer some common questions you may have in separating the amateurs from the pros!

What Does “Master Elite Certification” Mean?

To receive the “Master Elite” certification, KC roofers must…

• Be fully licensed in the state to perform roofing work.
• Be adequately insured, for consumer protection.
• Have a proven reputation for providing quality service.
• Commit to ongoing education and professional training.

Is My Roofer A Certified Expert?

Sure, anyone can SAY they are GAF/ELK Master Elite certified, but don’t just take their word for it! You can easily verify a roofer’s credentials on the GAF website, simply by typing in the contractor’s ID # or Phone #.

What Else Should I Look For?

In addition to the expertise and consumer protections provided by hiring a certified roofing contractor, you can also protect yourself by assessing reviews from members of the community. Angie’s List is considered to be one of the better websites because they verify the validity of each review before publishing. You can search for KC roofers using a free trial. (Note: Eclipse has been recognized by the Angie’s List community as a “Super Service” award winner!)

Review sites are a blessing for homeowners who need work done on their homes. It saves them from having to ask for references, which can be awkward to call in — and also provides a more reliable review than a company-provided testimonial. There are several places to find the best roofing company reviews Kansas City has to offer.

1. The Better Business Bureau

The Better Business Bureau website will tell you several things about a business:

• Whether they adhere to higher standards of excellence and ethics (BBB-member or not)
• How long the company has been in business
• What the company’s local address is
• How many complaints the company has had over the last 3 years
• What type of complaints were filed and whether they were resolved or not

Note: We have an A+ rating with the BBB, with 0 complaints!

2. Angie’s List

You have to pay to access Angie’s List reviews, but you can check out a few roofing companies using their free trial. According to the New York Times, “At Angie’s List, the reviews are real.”  In order to write a review, people must use their real name and information — rather than being able to post anonymously. Companies may obtain a person’s name if they wish to reach out to the reviewer to offer compensation to assuage them after a scathing review.

Note: We’re an Angie’s List “Super Service” Award winner for multiple years in a row!

3. City Search

We find that City Search has the most active reviewers, so you’ll have plenty to read about. Here people only tend to write a sentence or two, but it will give you a rough idea of what to expect from a roofing company. You can also click the “Around the Web” tab to see what others are saying on competing review sites.

Note: We are 100% recommended on City Search!

Once you look over some of the roofing company reviews Kansas City has to offer, you’ll have a pretty good idea of who to contact for your project. It’s recommended that you call at least 3 roofing companies to have a free estimate done. This will allow you to compare apples to apples and go with your gut instinct on who will be the best fit for you.
