Local roofers for Kirkland roofs

With a mix of older bungalows, new construction, and waterfront communities, Kirkland has a unique blend of home styles. A careful approach to roofing is key to ensuring lasting performance and curb appeal.

Here’s what makes Kirkland roof replacement projects unique:

Mixed Housing Styles: New builds may require a specific shingle style, while older homes may need structural updates.
HOA Communities: Many Kirkland neighborhoods have guidelines around different roofing materials and color palettes
Tree Coverage & Shade: Areas like Bridle Trails and Juanita are prone to moss and debris collection
Lakeside Exposure: Homes near Lake Washington face more wind and rain, requiring added protection

Our Recommended Asphalt Shingles for Kirkland Homes

At A Better Roofing Company, we specialize in the installation of architectural asphalt singles. This type of shingles is highly recommended as an affordable and visually appealing option for Kirkland mores. They also provide other benefits such as:

Moisture Resistance: Defends against Kirkland’s heavy rain, shaded roofs, and lakeside humidity
Tasteful Appearance: Mimics a shake or tile shingle which is ideal for upscale areas like West of Market or Highlands
Long-Term Performance: Backed by Limited Lifetime warranties
Upgradable Features: Add-ons like ridge venting, chimney flashing, and premium color lines are available

We work with CertainTeed, which is known for quality, durability, and strong warranty support.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Better Roofing Company did an outstanding job on our roof. Their bid was competitive and they gave a list of houses in the area that they had completed so we could view.  This company is so professional. The roofers finished the job in two days. They did an amazing job. After the job was completed I was so impressed with the way they cleaned up . We got so many complements from neighbors walking by noticing the roof. The customer service is great. They answer the phone and answer any questions that you have about the job. I would recommend this roofing company.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A Better Roofing Company did an excellent job with installation of my new roof. Old roof was torn off, a few Sheets of ASB replaced, and then new roof installed.  The best part of the deal, besides the nice new look, was that all old materials were totally eliminated (cleaned up) from our property. It looked as if no one had even been there. No damage to any of our plants or flowers! I highly recommend this Company.
