Residential Roofing Systems We Install

Every home in Central Kentucky is unique, and choosing the right material depends on your home’s structure, style, and budget. Our expert crews handle a complete range of high-quality roofing materials installed to strict manufacturer guidelines.

Asphalt Shingle Roofing

Asphalt shingles are the most popular choice for Central Kentucky homes due to their dependability, versatility, and cost-effectiveness. We offer precision asphalt shingle installation in Lexington and surrounding areas to give your home superior protection.

Three-Tab Asphalt Shingles: A classic, budget-friendly option providing reliable baseline weather defense.
Architectural (Dimensional) Asphalt Shingles: Multi-layered shingles engineered for superior wind resistance and a rich, dimensional look.
Premium (Luxury) Asphalt Shingles: High-end shingle systems designed to mimic natural slate or wood tile with maximum durability.
Impact Resistant (IR) Asphalt Shingles: Specialized shingles built tough to withstand hail, falling branches, and severe Kentucky storms.

Upgrade your home’s look and protection. Schedule your free inspection with our crew.

Metal Roofing

If you’re looking for long-lasting durability and energy efficiency, metal roofing is a phenomenal choice. Metal roofs handle harsh weather, reflect solar heat, and require minimal maintenance.

Standing-Seam Metal: Concealed fasteners create a sleek look and eliminate exposed screw holes, virtually preventing leaks.
Exposed Fastener Metal: A traditional, budget-conscious metal option offering excellent strength and classic style.
Metal Shingles: Combines the rugged durability of steel or aluminum with the appearance of traditional shingles or slate.
Steel Roofing: Exceptionally tough and built to withstand strong winds and heavy winter weather.
Aluminum Roofing: Naturally rust-resistant and ideal for long-term weather exposure.
Copper Roofing: Premium material that develops a distinct, beautiful green patina over time while lasting for decades.
Corrugated Metal: A durable, cost-effective option popular for residential accent roofs and outdoor structures.

Slate Roofing

For homeowners looking for unmatched natural beauty and a roof that can last a lifetime, slate delivers incredible elegance and character.

Natural Slate: Stone tiles that offer a distinct texture and centuries of proven performance.
Synthetic Slate: Engineered tiles that capture the classic appearance of slate at a fraction of the structural weight and cost.

Interested in premium slate options? Schedule your free inspection today.

Cedar Roofing

Cedar roofing offers a warm, natural aesthetic that complements custom homes while providing natural insulation against the elements.

Cedar Shake: Thick, hand-split wood shakes that give your roof a rugged, textured appearance.
Cedar Shingle: Machine-cut wood shingles offering clean lines and uniform, classic appeal.
Synthetic Cedar: Composite tiles that deliver the look of natural wood without susceptibility to rot or insects.

Give your home a classic, natural look. Schedule your free inspection with our team.

Why Professional Installation Matters

Even the best roofing materials will fail early if they are installed incorrectly. Central Kentucky weather brings a little bit of everything: heavy spring rain, summer heat, severe wind, hail, and winter ice. Your roof needs to be engineered correctly to handle extreme temperature changes and storm impacts.

When MK Contractors LLC installs your new roof, we focus on every detail of the roofing system:

Decking Check: Thorough evaluation of the underlying wood to ensure a rock-solid foundation.
Underlayment & Water Shields: Premium leak barriers installed along eaves, valleys, and rakes.
Attic Ventilation: Balanced intake and exhaust vents to control humidity and prevent ice dams.
Meticulous Flashing: Custom-fitted metal flashing around chimneys, vents, and roof valleys.

We treat your property with absolute respect. Throughout the project, we maintain an organized job site and perform a thorough magnetic sweep for stray nails. Our clean-up is so complete that the only evidence left behind is your amazing new roof!

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a new residential roof installation take?

Most asphalt shingle installations are completed in just 1 to 2 days. Specialized installations, such as standing-seam metal, slate, or tile, can take slightly longer due to custom fabrication and detailed trim work. We always provide a clear timeline before work begins.

How do I know which roofing material is best for my home?

It depends on your home’s architectural structure, your local neighborhood style, and your budget. Architectural shingles offer an ideal balance of price and durability, while metal and synthetic options offer maximum longevity. During your free inspection, we will walk you through sample materials so you can choose with confidence.

What kind of warranty comes with my new roof?

All full residential replacements installed by MK Contractors LLC come backed by our 10-year workmanship warranty, along with strong manufacturer warranties on materials like GAF shingles.

Katya Varela from MK contractors came out on 10/1 for an estimate to replace a roof, gutters and some siding repair. It’s currently 10/10 and even after trying to contact her we have not heard anything back. Looked like they had great reviews which is why we called them but leaving 2 stars for at least showing up but wasting our time.

I worked with Kevin at MK for roofing work, and I couldn’t be happier. He came to our house within hours to inspect for hail damage, and was professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. He followed up with emails and texts (at my request), and when it was time to get the work done, his team met the high expectations he had set. The team was thorough and efficient, they wasted no time getting the job done, and the work was high quality. He is our new roofer.

I had been trying to find someone to replace a damaged plumbing roof vent boot for a couple months. I understand people are busy, we are too. But I was ghosted by two roofers. One had even given me a quote already. I got connected with Katya at MK and she was incredibly helpful, personable, professional, and went above and beyond with multiple trips to our house before and after repair. The guys who came out for the repair were polite, quick, and made sure to clean up after themselves. Thank you all SO much!

MK Contractors LLC just installed a beautiful new roof! We worked with Katya Varela who is personable and knowledgeable. She handled the insurance company’s questions and it was a stress-free experience for us. An army of roofers came one morning and in no time the old roof was off and the beautiful new roof was in its place. They did such a great job clearing everything out and left the yard around the house immaculate. I would absolutely recommend MK Contractors LLC to anyone who wants a professional and reliable roofing company.
