About Kent Roof Pros: Licensed Roofing Pros in WA
Kent Roof Pros works Kent, Auburn, Renton, Tukwila, Federal Way, Covington and the surrounding King and Pierce county communities, on houses and on the low-slope buildings that fill the valley floor. We are registered with Washington Labor and Industries, carry liability cover and workers compensation, and pull our permits in our own name through the City of Kent.
The reason we ask about ground before products is that this valley was a floodplain until living memory. The White River was pushed south to Commencement Bay by the flood of 1906, and the Howard A. Hanson Dam, dedicated in 1962, ended the seasonal flooding that had kept the valley in farms. What went up afterwards sits on alluvium and fill, and buildings on that material settle unevenly over decades. Roofs show it first.
There are jobs we turn down. If your deck plane has moved far enough that a structural opinion should come first, we will not sell you a covering to hide it. If your low-slope roof ponds because the building settled, we will not coat it and pretend the warranty covers standing water. And if you want a hail claim written on a Puget lowland roof, we are not the firm for that.
If you have a roofing project in Kent, the fastest way to get a real number is a free on-site estimate. See every Kent service we handle, check whether we cover Auburn, WA and the rest of the Green River valley and south King County, or go back to the Kent Roof Pros homepage to start. You can also reach us directly on (844) 511-2320.
Credentials
- License: Registered with Washington State Labor and Industries under chapter 18.27 RCW, and plain about what that means: this state registers contractors rather than examining them, so nobody sat a roofing test to obtain it. Since 1 July 2024 the surety bond filed under RCW 18.27.040 has been 30,000 dollars for a general registration and 15,000 dollars for a single-trade specialty registration. Ask us for the registration number and read the bond, the expiry date and the claim history yourself on the Labor and Industries Verify tool.
- Insurance: General liability and property damage limits carried far above the statutory floor, which RCW 18.27.050 still leaves at 200,000 dollars per injury claim and 50,000 dollars for property damage, alongside Washington workers compensation through Labor and Industries. Ask, and our insurer sends the certificates to you direct.
- Association: National Roofing Contractors Association member. The more useful record, though, is at the City of Kent Permit Center: every permit on our jobs is taken out in this company's name, so the inspection history attaches to us and can be looked up against your address
- Warranty: a written workmanship warranty stating its term and its exclusions in plain language
How Kent Roof Pros works
How a job with Kent Roof Pros runs, start to finish
Site visit first, always. We measure, look at the real condition of the work area, and ask what you are actually trying to solve — then you get an itemized free estimate in writing with materials, scope and a realistic date on it.
Once the work starts, the same crew stays on the job until it is done. We protect the surrounding area, clean up daily, and tell you the moment something under the surface changes the plan, because the alternative is a surprise invoice and nobody wants that conversation. a written workmanship warranty stating its term and its exclusions in plain language backs the finished work.
What we will not do
We do not quote a roofing job over the phone, take deposits before a written scope exists, or bid work we are not set up to do properly. If your project needs a different trade, we say so and point you at someone who does it well. Losing a job is cheaper than doing one badly in Kent.
Where Kent Roof Pros works and who we work with
Kent, WA first, then the surrounding communities of the Green River valley and south King County: Auburn, Federal Way, Renton, Tukwila, SeaTac, Des Moines, Burien, Normandy Park and more. Each of those has its own page with local detail rather than a copy of this one.
Work splits roughly between homeowners and commercial property — offices, retail, restaurants, apartment complexes and HOA boards across the Green River valley and south King County. Start with the Kent services, the Kent Roof Pros homepage, or just call (844) 511-2320.
Why Kent Chooses Kent Roof Pros
- ✓We establish which ground your address sits on, valley fill or glacial hillside, before a specification is written, because the two need different roofs
- ✓Ridge and eave offsets are measured and recorded on the first visit and again at completion, so the file shows whether anything is still moving
- ✓We decline coating work where the ponding traces back to building settlement, and we put the reason in writing rather than taking the job quietly
- ✓Nobody here will write a hail claim on a Puget lowland roof. We chalk a test square, count the hits and give you the number even when it kills the job
- ✓Roof water is tightlined to an approved discharge point rather than soaked into compressible ground beside a shallow foundation
- ✓Washington registers contractors without examining them, so we hand over the registration number and invite you to check the bond and claim history yourself
What Kent Customers Say
Third roofer we had out and the first to run a string along the ridge instead of just looking at the shingles. Turned out the dip was the house, not the roof, and they said so before quoting anything. We got the framing looked at first and then they did the reroof. Honest people.
We were quoted a coating on the warehouse roof by two companies. These guys cut cores first, found soaked insulation over half the building and told us a coating would have trapped it. Cost more to do it properly and we would have paid twice otherwise.
A door knocker told us we had hail damage. Kent Roof Pros chalked a square, counted, photographed it and said there was nothing there worth filing on, then showed us the blistering that was actually causing the granule loss. They charged us for the inspection and saved us a claim.
Ceiling stains every January and no leak in the rain. They checked the crawl space before they checked the roof, found the vapor barrier half missing, and fixed the intake vents in the attic. Two winters clear now. Nobody else even asked about under the house.
