Roofing 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.
Neighborhoods

Newer subdivisions with two-story and ranch homes. Most roofs here are architectural shingles from the 2000s.
Rural homes on acreage near Kill Creek, often with barns and outbuildings. Metal roofing is a good fit for many of these buildings.
Homes around Gardner Lake north of town, with wooded lots and more wind exposure over the water.
Local roof notes
Open land around Gardner means strong wind. We use the correct nailing pattern and starter strips so shingles stay down.
Metal roofing lasts a long time on barns, sheds, and pole buildings. We install it on homes too.
Southwest Johnson County gets hail most springs. A free inspection tells you whether the damage is worth a claim.
Pricing
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.
