Kirby and his crew showed up on time and were able to complexly disassemble and reassemble my roof in less than a day!

Very professional, very efficient. Always did what he said he was going to do. The crew was respectful and neat, the cleanup was impeccable. Very satisfied with the new roof. Would highly recommend. Did all the leg work with my insurance company, and they were not easy to work with, but Jacob was persistent and worked through it.

From start to finish, Kirby Contracting was very professional, timely, and highly responsive. His crew did excellent work on the roof, and he was always trustworthy. Super appreciate the ease of working with him. Highly recommend Kirby to others.

Jacob was the person that I worked with when I had storm damage on my roof. He was super professional, got me a great quote and did really good quality work. I would recommend them to anybody!!

Signs you need a roof replacement

Most times, we don’t think about getting a new roof unless it’s already leaking or, worse, pouring down water. What helps you decide when you need a roof replacement?

There are multiple signs that could mean you need a roof replacement, and it’s not always a leak. There are other signs that you need a new roof. We provide free estimates for roof replacement, examine the damages on your roof, and give you other alternative solutions to address your roof’s problem. A damaged roof can cause more significant issues later on if not given immediate attention.

Here are some things to look out for if you think you may need a roof replacement.

You have an old roof

Roofs have a life expectancy. Some last for just a few decades, while others can last for up to a hundred years.

Asphalt shingles last somewhere between 20-50 years.
Metal roofs last for up to 70 to 100 years.
Wood shake and shingles last for 25 to 30 years. High-quality wood shakes can last up to 50 years.
Clay/concrete tiles can last somewhere between 50 to 100 years.
Slate lasts for 60 to 175 years.

It’s good to know what material your roof is made up of and when it was installed. This gives you an estimate on the timeline of when it will need replacing.

There are sagging spots

Saggy spots on the roof mean your deckings are soft with moisture. Sometimes you can see a sagging or drooping spot on your roof while you’re standing on the ground. If you walk on top of your roof and a spot feels bouncy, get off right away and call a roofing specialist.

Curling shingles

Often, curling shingles are just part of a bigger problem. There may be a leak somewhere on your roof. There could be other reasons for the curling as well. It may be because of incorrect installation, poor ventilation, or your layered roof. Curling shingles need immediate attention.

Weather damage

As we know, all different kinds of weather in London, KY can pose problems for a roof. Strong winds and tornadoes can rip shingle off the roof, leaving the roof vulnerable. With the shingles missing, water and other debris can get onto the roofing itself and damage it badly. At this point, a roof replacement would likely be in order.
