Stop Leaks Before They Spread

Ruby Construction repairs roofs damaged by storms, age, and wear throughout Kansas City.

A small leak does not stay small for long in Kansas City. Water finds its way under shingles after a hailstorm, travels along roof decking until it reaches a seam, then drips into your attic insulation or down an interior wall. By the time you see a stain on your ceiling, the damage behind it is usually worse than it looks. Missing shingles, damaged flashing, and worn valleys let water in during every rain, and waiting to fix them only increases the cost of the repair.

Ruby Construction repairs leaks, missing shingles, flashing damage, and storm-related issues across Kansas City. Fast response helps prevent water intrusion from spreading into insulation, drywall, and framing. The service works on both asphalt and metal roofing systems and is tailored to extend roof life whenever replacement is not yet required. This approach is ideal for homeowners in older neighborhoods with aging roofing systems that still have years of useful life left if maintained properly.

If you notice water stains, missing shingles, or granules collecting in your gutters, contact Ruby Construction to schedule an inspection and stop the damage before it spreads further in your Kansas City home.

What Gets Fixed During a Roof Repair

Roof repairs in Kansas City typically address missing or damaged shingles, cracked or lifted flashing around chimneys and vents, and worn valleys where two roof planes meet. Ruby Construction inspects the area around the visible damage to find hidden issues, then replaces damaged materials and seals vulnerable points to restore the roof's ability to shed water properly.

Once the repair is complete, you will notice that water no longer stains your ceiling after a storm, attic insulation stays dry, and the musty smell from trapped moisture begins to fade. Repairs are tailored to extend roof life whenever replacement is not required. The work is designed to match your existing roofing material so the repair blends in and performs consistently with the rest of the roof.

Ruby Construction is familiar with common roofing problems caused by Kansas City hailstorms and wind events, which means repairs account for the forces your roof faces regularly. Minor issues like a few missing shingles are usually fixed in a few hours, while larger repairs involving flashing or multiple damaged sections may take a full day. This service does not include full roof replacement or structural repairs to trusses, though those needs are identified during the inspection if they are contributing to the problem.

It Helps to Know What to Ask

Homeowners often want to know how soon repairs need to happen, whether a repair will hold up long-term, and what signs indicate a bigger problem.

How quickly should I repair a roof leak?
You should schedule a repair as soon as you notice a leak or missing shingles. Every rainstorm after that point allows more water into your home, which damages insulation, framing, and drywall.
Will a repair last as long as a full replacement?
A quality repair can add years to your roof's lifespan if the surrounding material is still in good condition. Ruby Construction evaluates whether repair or replacement makes more sense based on your roof's overall health.
What causes flashing to fail?
Flashing fails when sealant dries out, metal corrodes, or fasteners pull loose during temperature swings and wind. Kansas City's freeze-thaw cycles and storm exposure accelerate this process on older roofs.
Can you match my existing shingles?
Ruby Construction matches shingle style, color, and manufacturer whenever possible so repairs blend with your roof. If your shingles are discontinued, the closest available match is used.
How do I know if my roof is too old to repair?
If your roof is over 20 years old and showing widespread curling, granule loss, or multiple leaks, replacement is usually more reliable than patching. An inspection will show you where your roof stands.

If your Kansas City roof is leaking or you have noticed damage after a recent storm, Ruby Construction can inspect the issue, explain what needs to be fixed, and complete the repair before water causes more expensive problems inside your home.
