Anatomy of a Perfect Roof: 3 Areas to Consider

Replacing your roof requires proper planning. There are many options for roof styles and types so you need a reliable roofer to help you decide on the right solution for your home and budget.

At Safe Harbor Exteriors, our ultimate goal is to help you invest in the right type of replacement roofing in Shawnee, KS and the surrounding area. To help you choose, let’s focus on these three key things:

Weather Resistance

First of all, your choice must be suitable to the local climate. The primary purpose of your roof is to protect your home from the elements, so its material should be resistant enough to resist Mother Nature for a long period. If you choose a roof that can effectively withstand the rigors of summer, winter, wind and rain, you can reduce the costs associated with roof maintenance down the road.

For instance, our concrete tiles are warranted to blanket your home against strong winds, heavy downpours, and snow for 50 years. Their remarkable fire resistance also makes them a reliable roof above your head.

Efficiency

An efficient roofing system is key to improve your home’s energy performance. The less it overheats in summer and cools in winter, the less energy you need to make your interiors comfortable. Safe Harbor Exteriors is one of the few roofers in Shawnee, KS, that offer ENERGY STAR®–certified metal roofs. This seal of approval tells you that we have roofing solutions that can really pay for themselves month after month.

Being sustainable and non-combustible, our metal roofing systems have the essential features to help you qualify for federal tax credits for their exceptional efficiency.

Beauty

In the name of curb appeal, all of our roofing solutions come in a variety of styles that can enhance the look of your home your way—without stressing your budget. In fact, our DaVinci Roofscapes polymer roof tiles emulate the charm of authentic slate and wood at a fraction of the cost. With a nearly limitless color selection and many customization options at your disposal, you can design a roof that will be the envy of your neighborhood.

Let Safe Harbor Exteriors help you choose the best roofing system for your home.

Reviews

We talked to multiple companies while deciding who to use for the exterior of our home. Safe Harbor was transparent, fast, and offered James Hardie siding compared to all the other companies only offering vinyl. Safe Harbor was much more affordable than many of the other companies, who just wanted as much money as possible. We are extremely happy with our siding, soffit, fascia, flashing, gutters, windows and the guarantee that comes with their work. If there was any more work to be performed, without a doubt, we would chose safe Harbor again.

Safe Harbor installed James Hardie siding, soffits, and gutters. The install was meticulous and our home was left cleaner than when the company showed up. The level of detail in the install was beyond expectation! We are so pleased with the quality of the work and the professionalism of the install team!
