Metal Roofing for Kansas City & Shawnee Homes
Get a Free Estimate
Kansas City's weather is demanding on residential roofs. Heat, wind, hail, and freeze–thaw cycles all take a toll over time, which is why many homeowners look beyond short-term fixes and focus on long-term performance. Metal roofing offers a durable, low-maintenance solution designed to handle these conditions without constant upkeep.
Safe Harbor Exteriors installs residential metal roofing systems for homeowners in Shawnee and throughout the Kansas City metro. We specialize in full roof replacements, and our process is built around careful inspections, clear communication, and products chosen for long-term reliability.
Why Kansas City Homeowners Choose Metal Roofing
For most homeowners, choosing metal roofing isn’t just about aesthetics. It’s about reducing risk, limiting future repairs, and installing a system that can perform consistently year after year in a challenging climate.
When properly designed and installed, metal roofing provides a combination of benefits that support long-term peace of mind:
Extended lifespan compared to standard asphalt roofing systems
Lower ongoing maintenance, minimizing future repair concerns
Energy performance benefits, including radiant heat reflection during warmer months
High resistance to hail and wind, common in the Kansas City area
Fire resistance and material stability through seasonal temperature swings
Rather than addressing roofing problems as they arise, metal roofing allows homeowners to make a single, well-planned upgrade with lasting impact.
Metal Roofing Systems for Residential Homes
Metal roofing is not a one-size-fits-all solution. The right system depends on your home’s architecture, roof design, and exposure to the elements. Safe Harbor Exteriors installs residential metal roofing profiles selected for performance in Midwest conditions.
DECRA Stone-Coated Metal Roofing
DECRA stone-coated metal roofing is designed for homeowners who want exceptional durability without sacrificing a traditional roof appearance. Steel panels are finished with stone granules, creating a roof that performs well in severe weather while blending naturally with many home styles.
This system is well-suited for Kansas City homes because it offers:
Class 4 impact resistance for enhanced hail protection
Strong performance in high winds and freeze–thaw conditions
Fire-resistant construction
Profiles that resemble shake, tile, or slate without the maintenance demands of natural materials
DECRA is often chosen by homeowners who want added protection but prefer a roof that looks familiar from the street.
Standing Seam Metal Roofing
Standing seam metal roofing features clean lines and concealed fasteners that help protect critical attachment points from moisture and debris. This design supports long-term watertight performance and a refined architectural appearance.
Standing seam systems are commonly selected for:
A streamlined, modern look that complements many home styles
Excellent water-shedding capability across long roof planes
Reduced exposure of fasteners, supporting durability over time
During your consultation, we’ll review how each system performs and help you determine which option best fits your home and long-term goals.
Our Approach to Metal Roof Installation
A metal roof’s performance depends heavily on its installation. Accurate measurements, thoughtful preparation, and experienced workmanship all play a critical role in how the system performs over decades—not just the first year.
Safe Harbor Exteriors follows a structured installation process designed to minimize surprises and keep homeowners informed throughout the project:
In-home consultation to discuss goals, concerns, and suitability
Detailed roof inspection and measurements to identify structural considerations
System selection guidance based on performance needs—not upsells
Pre-install planning to protect your property and outline timelines
Professional installation by trained residential crews
Final cleanup and walkthrough to confirm the project meets expectations
This approach allows us to deliver consistent results while maintaining clear communication at every stage.
Why Homeowners Trust Safe Harbor Exteriors
Choosing the right contractor is just as important as choosing the right roofing system. Before moving forward, many homeowners want to understand who they’re working with and what to expect.
Choosing a roofing contractor is as important as selecting the roofing material itself. Safe Harbor Exteriors is a family-owned, locally operated company that has served the Kansas City area since 2013. Our focus is on transparency, accuracy, and quality workmanship—not high-pressure sales.
Homeowners work with us because we prioritize:
Clear, responsive communication from start to finish
Thorough inspections and precise measurements
High-quality workmanship backed by a 10-year workmanship warranty
Installation using trusted, manufacturer-approved roofing products
Our goal is to provide a roofing experience that feels organized, informed, and dependable. Our background as a local, family-owned company shapes how we communicate, plan projects, and support homeowners long after installation is complete.
Metal Roofing Warranties and Long-Term Confidence
A new roof is a major investment, and warranty coverage plays an important role in protecting that investment. Safe Harbor Exteriors includes a 10-year workmanship warranty with metal roofing installations, along with applicable manufacturer warranties for the selected system.
Working with a certified contractor helps ensure your roof is installed in accordance with manufacturer standards, supporting both performance and warranty protection over time.

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!
