Roofing in Bonner Springs, KS

Bonner Springs is an older river town with a compact core and rural property spreading out around it. The in-town housing is largely early to mid century, small and simply roofed. Outside town there are acreages with houses, garages and outbuildings that all need covering. It is a market where a job is often more than one roof, and pricing it correctly means looking at every structure rather than just the house.

On the older in-town stock the typical finding is a roof that has been covered over at least once, with original board decking underneath and flashing that has been patched rather than replaced. On the acreage properties the outbuildings are frequently metal, sometimes decades old, with fastener gaskets that have dried and cracked. Exposed-fastener metal roofs need their screws checked periodically, and almost nobody does it until it leaks.

This is the western edge of Wyandotte County, more exposed than the city and with fewer contractors based nearby. Storms come through with wind, and the properties out here often have long unobstructed exposure to it. We see more edge-lifted shingle and more damaged ridge cap in Bonner Springs than in the sheltered inner-ring suburbs.
