Replace Your Roof Before It Fails Completely

Rickel Exteriors provides complete tear-off and replacement services using quality roofing materials designed to handle the climate extremes homes face in Kansas City.

Your roof in Kansas City has a limited lifespan, and once it reaches the end of that window, patching leaks and replacing damaged shingles stops being a viable option. Rickel Exteriors performs complete roof replacements for aging roofs, storm-damaged systems, and major renovations throughout the metro area, removing all old materials down to the deck and installing a new roofing system that is designed to handle local weather extremes. The crew has replaced roofs that were curling, cracked, or missing so many shingles that temporary tarps were the only thing keeping water out, and they know what it takes to do the job correctly the first time.

The service includes full tear-off of existing shingles, inspection and repair of the roof deck, installation of new underlayment and flashing, and application of quality roofing materials that meet manufacturer and safety standards. Work is performed by experienced crews who follow proper installation techniques and job-site safety protocols. Rickel Exteriors offers consultations to discuss material options, timelines, and what to expect during the project in Kansas City.

If your roof is aging or showing signs of widespread damage, reach out to Rickel Exteriors to schedule a consultation in Kansas City.

What Happens During a Full Roof Replacement

Rickel Exteriors begins every roof replacement in Kansas City with a full tear-off, removing all old shingles, underlayment, and flashing down to the wood deck. The deck is inspected for rot, sagging, or damage, and any compromised sections are replaced before the new roofing materials are installed. New underlayment is rolled out and secured, flashing is installed around chimneys, vents, and roof edges, and shingles are applied following the manufacturer's specifications for nailing, overlap, and starter courses.

After the replacement is complete, you will notice that your roof looks uniform, sits flat without lifting or curling, and performs the way it should during heavy rain and wind. Your attic will stay dry, your energy bills will drop because conditioned air is no longer escaping through gaps, and you will not be scheduling emergency repairs after every storm that rolls through Kansas City.

The crew uses a magnetic roller and thorough ground sweep to remove nails and debris from your yard, and all materials are hauled away at the end of the project. The service includes roofing material installation, flashing replacement, and deck repair where needed, but does not cover gutter replacement or siding work. If those issues are found during the inspection, the crew will let you know so you can address them as part of a larger project or separately.

How do you protect my property during the replacement?
The crew uses tarps to protect landscaping, covers vents and chimneys during tear-off, and performs a thorough cleanup each day to remove nails and debris. A magnetic roller is used at the end of the project to pick up stray nails from your yard.
