Roofing in Gardner

Roof replacement and repair in Gardner.

Gardner has grown fast. Most homes here were built after 2000 in subdivisions off Moonlight Road, and many of those first roofs are now due for replacement. Downtown Gardner and the rural roads around town have older homes, barns, and outbuildings.

The Santa Fe, Oregon, and California trails split just west of Gardner, which is why the town calls itself the place where the trails divide. Today the area also includes the large logistics park in nearby Edgerton, with warehouses that have big low-slope roofs.

Open land around Gardner means roofs take the full force of wind and hail. We inspect storm damage for free and install shingles rated for high wind with the correct nailing pattern.

Local roof notes

What we see on roofs in Gardner.

  • Open-country wind

    Open land around Gardner means strong wind. We use the correct nailing pattern and starter strips so shingles stay down.

  • Barns and outbuildings

    Metal roofing lasts a long time on barns, sheds, and pole buildings. We install it on homes too.

  • Spring hail

    Southwest Johnson County gets hail most springs. A free inspection tells you whether the damage is worth a claim.

Pricing

What sets the price.

The price depends on the size and pitch of the roof, how many layers we tear off, any decking repairs, and the material you choose. We give you a written price after a free inspection.

What changes the price

  • The size of the roof, measured in squares (100 square feet each)
  • How steep the roof is
  • How many layers of old shingles we tear off
  • How much decking needs to be replaced
  • The material you choose
  • Valleys, chimneys, skylights, and other details

“From beginning to end, our experience with Freestate Roofing has been terrific. When they were done, our yard was cleaner than when they started. So far we haven't found even one nail! The price was lower than the two other quotes we received.”

Do you install metal roofs on barns and outbuildings near Gardner?

Yes. We install metal roofing on homes, barns, and outbuildings. We measure the building and give you a written price.

Do I need a permit for a roof in Gardner?

My Gardner home is 20 years old. Does it need a new roof?

Maybe. Many roofs installed in the early 2000s are near the end of their life, especially after hail. We can inspect it for free and show you photos of the shingles, flashing, and vents.
