Owensby and Sons Roofing | Roofing Services in Lee's Summit, MO 64063

First, safely inspect your gutters and downspouts for an accumulation of asphalt granules, which is a key sign of shingle damage. Then, contact a local roofing professional like Owensby and Sons for a thorough, no-obligation inspection. We'll assess the shingles for bruising, cracking, or loss of granules and provide a clear report to help you navigate the insurance claims process if needed.

The ridge cap is the critical seal along the peak of your roof, preventing wind-driven rain and pests from entering your attic. Damage here is common in our area due to high winds. Our repair process involves carefully removing the damaged caps, inspecting the underlying decking for moisture, and installing new, high-wind-rated ridge cap shingles with proper sealing to restore a watertight barrier.

The decision depends on the extent of damage, the age of your roof, and the location of issues. Isolated damage from a single storm, like a few damaged shingles, often warrants a repair. However, widespread hail damage, multiple leaking areas, or an aging roof (typically 20+ years) may make a replacement more cost-effective for long-term protection. We provide honest assessments to recommend the best solution for your home and budget.
