Commercial Roofing
Commercial Roofing Contractor Serving Westwood Hills, KS
Four-season roofing systems engineered for hail, wind, winter ice, and Kansas City-area humidity.
Our Approach to Commercial Roofing
A commercial roof in the Kansas City area has to survive something many warmer climates don’t design for: severe thunderstorms and hail, sustained winter ice and freeze-thaw cycles, and humid summers, often on roofs that are flat or low-slope. Westwood Hills itself is one of the smallest, most fully residential cities in the metro, so most commercial roofing work connected to this area takes place on buildings across the surrounding Kansas City metro, including neighboring Westwood, Mission Woods, and Kansas City. As a commercial roofing contractor serving the Westwood Hills area, Hickok Homes manages roofing scopes with the same in-house project management and transparent budgeting we apply across our construction and historic-renovation work.
We treat a commercial roof as a system, not a single material choice — membrane or coating selection, insulation, drainage design, and flashing details all have to work together for a roof to perform through hail season, winter ice, and years of humidity exposure without failure.
Planning & Assessment
We start with an assessment of the existing roof condition (for a replacement or repair) or the building’s structural and drainage requirements (for new construction), then confirm a transparent, line-item budget and realistic schedule before work begins.
Installation & Quality Control
Installation is managed under close in-house supervision, with particular attention to drainage detailing and flashing around penetrations — the points where most commercial roof failures in this climate actually start.
Local Considerations Near Westwood Hills
The Kansas City metro’s building codes and genuine four-season climate both push toward impact-resistant roofing systems rated for hail and wind, with drainage and insulation designed to handle winter ice buildup as well as humid summers arriving in the same calendar year. We factor both into material selection and detailing on every roof we manage near Westwood Hills, on either side of the Kansas-Missouri state line.
Because Westwood Hills borders both Westwood and Kansas City directly across the state line, property owners and managers in this part of the metro benefit from a roofing contractor already comfortable navigating permitting on both the Kansas and Missouri sides, which we maintain as standard practice.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Hickok Homes handle commercial roofing near Westwood Hills?
Yes. We manage commercial roofing projects on buildings across the Westwood Hills area and the surrounding Kansas City metro, from assessment and material selection through installation and quality control.
What roofing systems hold up best in this climate?
The right system depends on the building and roof type; we evaluate hail and wind resistance, drainage needs, and winter ice performance before recommending a specific system.
Do you handle roof repairs as well as full replacements?
Contact us to discuss your specific roofing scope, whether it’s an assessment, repair, or full replacement.
How long does a commercial roof replacement take?
Timelines depend on roof size and system type, but most flat or low-slope commercial replacements run several weeks once material is on site.
How is cost determined for a commercial roofing project?
Cost depends on roof size, existing condition, and the system selected, so we don’t quote a flat rate without an assessment.
Do you offer a warranty on roofing work?
Yes, our commercial roofing work is backed by a workmanship warranty in addition to manufacturer warranties on the membrane or roofing system installed.
Can you respond quickly to an active roof leak?
Contact us to discuss an active leak, and we’ll assess how quickly we can get on site given current scheduling.
How do I know if I need a repair or a full replacement?
It depends on the roof’s age, the extent of membrane or flashing damage, and how much of the system is still performing. We give you an honest assessment of both options.
What types of commercial roofs do you work on?
We work on flat and low-slope commercial roof systems most common on office, retail, and multifamily buildings across the Kansas City metro near Westwood Hills.
Do you offer ongoing roof inspections or maintenance?
Yes, a periodic inspection catches flashing and drainage issues before they become a full leak, which is especially important heading into hail season and before winter.
