Your roof does more than keep rain out—it regulates attic temperatures, prevents ice dams, and anchors your home's entire structural integrity. In Owensboro, where spring storms bring hail and high winds while summer heat bakes shingles for months on end, your roof faces constant stress that eventually shows up as leaks, sagging sections, or missing granules.
Thompson Construction & Remodel provides complete roofing services including repairs for leaks and sagging roofs, removal of old shingles, and installation of new asphalt, architectural, metal, or flat roofing systems for residential and commercial properties. A professionally installed roof can last 20–50 years depending on material choice, with architectural shingles offering 30-year lifespans and metal roofs exceeding 50 years in Kentucky's climate. The team works across Owensboro's diverse housing stock, from historic homes downtown to newer builds in subdivisions off Frederica Street.
Whether you're addressing storm damage, planning a proactive replacement, or need emergency leak repair, the process begins with a thorough inspection and transparent recommendations tailored to your property and budget.
Owensboro's Climate and Roofing Performance
Owensboro experiences all four seasons with intensity—summer highs routinely hit 90°F with high humidity, while winter brings freezing rain and occasional heavy snow. Kentucky averages 45–50 inches of annual precipitation, with Owensboro seeing frequent severe thunderstorms during spring that produce hail and wind gusts exceeding 60 mph. These conditions accelerate shingle aging, especially on south- and west-facing slopes that absorb the most UV radiation and afternoon heat.
Asphalt shingles remain the most popular choice in Owensboro due to cost-effectiveness and reliable performance, but architectural shingles offer superior wind resistance and dimensional appearance. Metal roofing gains popularity for its longevity and energy efficiency—reflective coatings can reduce cooling costs by 10–15% during Owensboro's humid summers. Flat roofing systems, common on commercial properties and modern residential additions, require specialized membranes like TPO or EPDM that handle ponding water and temperature extremes.
