Roof Repair & Roofing Contractor in Independence, MO

There’s a brown spot on the ceiling that wasn’t there last month. Or a few shingles are lying in the yard after Tuesday’s storm. Or your roof is simply old enough that every heavy rain makes you a little nervous. You need a roofing contractor in Independence, MO who’ll find the real problem, tell you what it’ll take to fix it, and not turn a small repair into a whole new roof.

APC Roofing trucks lined up and ready for work

That’s a fair thing to expect. A roof is the one part of the house you can’t easily check yourself, so you’re relying on someone else’s honesty.

APC Roofing is GAF Certified, licensed and insured, and in business since 2017. Your inspection and estimate are free. Call 913-398-5020, and you’ll get photos of what’s on your roof and an honest read on whether it needs a repair, a replacement or nothing yet.

Roof repair in Independence starts with finding the source

The hardest part of most roof repairs in Independence is finding where the water is actually getting in. Water runs along the roof deck and rafters before it drips, so the stain on your ceiling can be several feet from the opening.

The usual suspects on Independence homes:

Cracked rubber pipe boots around plumbing vents
Flashing that’s pulled away at a chimney or along a wall
Shingles lifted or torn off by spring wind
Hail-bruised shingles that have lost their granules
Ice dams at the eaves after a snowy stretch in winter
Worn valleys where two roof slopes meet

We trace the leak, fix what’s causing it and show you photos before and after. If you have water coming in right now, our emergency roof repair in Independence page covers what to do first. For slower, recurring drips, see roof leak repair.

Flat roofs on Independence homes and buildings

A lot of homes here have a flat or low-slope section somewhere: a porch, an addition, a carport or a garage. Many small commercial buildings are flat from end to end. Those roofs don’t shed water the way a pitched roof does, so they fail differently. You’ll see ponding water that sits for days, seams pulling apart, blisters, and leaks around drains and anything mounted on the roof.

We repair and replace flat and low-slope roofs with TPO, EPDM and other membrane systems. Learn more about flat roofing in Independence or, if you already have a leak, flat roof repair.

What Kansas City-area weather does to your roof

Independence sits on the east side of the Kansas City metro, and its roofs get the same punishment. Spring and early summer storms bring hail and straight-line winds. Hail knocks granules loose and bruises shingles, and wind breaks the seal strips that keep them flat. Winters bring freeze-thaw cycles that open small gaps around flashing, plus ice dams that push meltwater under the bottom rows of shingles. Then a hot, humid summer bakes it all again.

If a storm just came through, start with our storm damage page.

Roof replacement and new installs

Sometimes a repair isn’t the smart money. If damage is spread across the roof, the shingles are curling and bald, or you’ve patched the same area more than once, a roof replacement in Independence is usually the better long-term call. We’ll walk you through why, with photos.

We install architectural shingle roofing, standing seam and other metal roofing, tile, and flat roofs for homes and light commercial buildings. We also install gutters, siding, fascia and soffits.

Storm damage and your insurance claim

You file your own claim with your insurance company and pay your own deductible. We document the damage with photos, write a detailed estimate and can be there when your adjuster inspects the roof so nothing gets missed. Be wary of anyone who offers to waive or cover your deductible. An honest roofer won’t promise that.

How it works

Book your free inspection. Call 913-398-5020 or request a free estimate online.
Get a clear, honest assessment and estimate. You’ll see photos, hear our reasoning and get a written estimate. Financing is available through Aqua Finance, Fortifi, Hearth and Home Run Finance.
Your roof gets done and the site gets cleaned up. Many residential roofs are finished in a single day, and the crew picks up before they leave.

A slow leak is easy to put off. Meanwhile it can soak insulation and soften the roof deck, and the eventual repair gets bigger than it needed to be.

Isa Romero

Jose was referred to me by my mother to assist with my roofing needs. He was able to explain the process throughly and go to my home timely to inspect it. He made the initial process easy and was able to make me feel comfortable in submitting the claim.

Joe Montes

Great people and very professional. Michael Pagano was honest and upfront with me every step of the way, and I believe gave me a fair price. And he wasn’t pushy! Some of the other companies I got estimates from were either way overpriced with pushy salesmen, and another company I suppose hates money because they never showed up to even give me an estimate! I upgraded my 20 year old shingle roof to metal. I am pleased with the results. Would recommend!

Jeff Clark

Great experience. Charlie came out, found our leak and did a roof inspection. Pointed out some issues, but nothing to be worried about right now. Honest company. Will definitely call for any roof issues in the future.

Eli Bonilla

Thank you, Jose Irizarry! We are so glad to have had you inspect our roof for damages. Thank you for your honesty and for giving us peace of mind knowing that our roof is structurally sound. While we could not file a claim at this time, we will absolutely recommend you to our family and friends. Jose came to us highly recommended by a family member whom he assisted during their roof replacement.

I had a great experience working with APC Roofing, especially Jose Irizarry, who was my main point of contact throughout the process. Jose was professional, responsive, knowledgeable, and kept me informed every step of the way. I really appreciated how easy he made the process and how willing he was to answer my questions. Having Jose as my point person gave me confidence that everything was being handled properly. I’m very happy with the service I received and would highly recommend Jose Irizarry and APC Roofing to anyone looking for a professional and dependable roofing company.

Darren Poythress

Our great friends referred us to APC and gave us Jose Irizarry’s number. Jose responded quickly with his inspector Ian to our storm damage concerns. Upon arrival they jumped right into documenting damages and getting through the claims process with our insurance.

Vincent Hasenstaub has helped us every step of the way in the process of getting our new roof. He is very professional knowledgeable and cares about his customers. I would recommend using Vincent as a sales person because he has the best interest for his customers and he is an asset to his company.

Vincent was very professional and knowledgeable.

Jordan Hanson

Vincent answered every question I had about the roofing process and explained everything in a way that was easy to understand. He was knowledgeable, patient, and professional from start to finish. What I appreciated most was that he took the time to make sure I understood what to expect throughout the entire process. From the initial inspection, working with the insurance company, all the way to the roof replacement itself. He was there every step of the way, kept me informed, and made what could have been a stressful experience feel simple and straightforward. That level of communication and customer service goes a long way with me. I highly recommend Vincent if you’re looking for someone you can trust.

José Irizarry came one day to my door. He and Jesús inspected our roof and I told them my insurance denied a claim already. They helped me see that I couldn’t give up. I’m glad I didn’t give up and listened to him. Jose explained every process that was needed before and after approval. If in doubt give APC roofing a call and if you get Jose, he will help you out. They are for the homeowner. The process of putting on a roof is next. I’ll write a review on how that went after the job is done.
