Roof Types Available at Osage Ridge Roofing & Construction
Choosing the right roofing material is one of the biggest decisions in any roofing project, and the right answer depends on your building, your budget and Kansas City's climate. At Osage Ridge Roofing & Construction, we install and service the full range of residential and light-commercial roofing systems, and we'll walk you through the trade-offs of each before you commit.
Asphalt shingles are among the most common roofing materials used in Missouri due to their cost-effectiveness and ease of installation. They come in a wide range of colors and styles, are affordable, and are easy to repair and maintain, typically lasting between 15 and 30 years depending on the quality of installation. Hail impact-resistant shingles are also available for homeowners in storm-prone areas.
Metal roofing offers durability and longevity that surpass many other materials, standing up well to heavy rain, high winds and snow. Metal roofs have a lifespan of up to 50 years or more, offer fire resistance and energy efficiency by reflecting solar radiant heat, and are available in steel (galvanized or galvalume), aluminum and copper. Copper in particular stands out for exceptional longevity and the beautiful patina it develops over time, and is highly resistant to hail and mildew.
Tile roofing is renowned for its aesthetic appeal and longevity, commonly made from clay or concrete, though tile is heavier than most materials so the structure must be able to support the weight. Slate roofing is the pinnacle of durability and natural beauty, with each tile unique and a lifespan that can exceed 100 years when properly maintained. Cedar shake roofing offers a classic look with insulation superior to many other materials, though it requires regular maintenance to prevent moss, mold and mildew.
For flat and low-slope roofs we install rubber (EPDM) membranes known for durability and resistance to extreme weather, modified bitumen applied in layers for excellent waterproofing, and TPO — a single-ply thermoplastic polyolefin membrane that offers strong performance and environmental benefits. Flat roofs are cost-effective to install and allow space on the roof for HVAC units or green roofs, but require meticulous installation to ensure proper drainage. Whatever you’re considering, contact us to discuss your options.
