Roofing in Oak Park, Overland Park KS
The roof came with the house and the paperwork didn't. Our roofer climbs up and tells you if it's years or a job.
The Oak Park streets behind the name
Say Oak Park around here and most people picture the mall up on W. 95th Street. This page is about the other one: the residential streets in north-central Overland Park, along the 103rd and 104th Street corridor near Quivira Road. Bond Street and Garnett Street are two of them.
The houses around here mostly went up between the 1970s and the 1990s. The Oak Park name reaches past the Overland Park line into Lenexa in a few spots, so if you aren't sure which side of it your street sits on, send the address and we'll check. On housing that age the builder's covering has usually been gone for years, and whatever's up there now is up there because somebody chose it.
Roofs on houses built in the seventies, eighties and nineties
Most people here have no idea when the roof was last done, and in a house somebody else owned first that's normal. Working it out is our roofer's job, so it isn't yours.
- ·The covering has its own install date
- The covering went on later than the house did, sometimes by decades, and that's the date that counts. A build year tells you what the house started with; it can't tell you what's up there now.
- ·Whoever put this covering on decided what to keep
- A replacement either renews the flashing, the pipe boots and the venting, or it re-uses what's already up there. Somebody made that call years ago, and the next replacement has to live with it.
- ·Storms on the county record hit whichever covering was up there
- The storms on the county record came through while some earlier covering was up there, and nobody wrote down how it held up. There's no file on this roof's history; it's all on the shingles.
Our roofer settles all three on the same visit, and tells you which of them is behind whatever you're seeing from the ground.

Put your Oak Park roof's history on paper
What our roofer finds up there gets written down: how many coverings, how the flashing is holding, roughly where in its life that roof sits. He goes through it with you before he leaves, and if this roof has a few more winters in it, he'll say so. The next time this question comes up in this house, nobody's starting from nothing.
