Roof Replacement Is Our Specialty
A roof replacement starts well before the new shingles go on. We remove the old roof down to the deck and haul it away, then install the layers that help keep water out and your roof properly ventilated. Once the work is complete, we inspect the finished roof to make sure it meets performance and warranty requirements.

When It Isn’t a Full Replacement
Sometimes a repair is all your roof needs. Whether you’ve noticed a leak or want it checked after a storm, our crew will take a look and explain what we find. You’ll get an honest assessment to help you choose the next step.
If a storm has you worried about your roof, we’ll check the shingles, flashing, vents and gutters and photograph any damage. With those findings in front of you, we can help you weigh the damage against your deductible and decide whether a claim is worth considering.
A leak can start with a lifted shingle, damaged flashing or a missing piece of your roof. We find where the water is getting in and make the repair, matching the surrounding roof as closely as the materials allow.
When you decide to file a claim, we provide a written damage report with photos and work with your insurance company through the process. Your insurer reviews the claim and makes the final coverage decision.

Why We Recommend Malarkey Vista AR for Your Roof
The shingles you choose need to stand up to Kansas City’s hail, summer heat and winter cold. We recommend Malarkey Vista AR for many homes because it combines rubberized asphalt that handles those temperature changes with the highest impact rating a shingle can earn.
Inside the Shingle
Four Layers, From the Surface Down
Copper and smog-reducing granules face the weather. Under them, NEX® rubberized asphalt coats both sides of a fiberglass mat.
Class 4 Impact Rating
Vista AR is rated UL 2218 Class 4 for impact, the top of the scale. It also carries a Class A fire rating and meets IBHS FORTIFIED Roof requirements.
Rubberized Asphalt
Malarkey's NEX® asphalt blends rubber and plastic polymers into the core of the shingle. Malarkey reports up to 25% greater tear strength and 65% better granule retention than the ASTM D3462 standard for asphalt shingles.
Algae-Resistant Copper Granules
3M™ copper granules help keep blue-green algae from leaving black streaks down the roof. Malarkey backs Vista AR with a 25-year algae warranty.
Smog-Reducing Granules
3M™ smog-reducing granules use sunlight to break down nitrogen dioxide, and rain rinses the residue away. By Malarkey’s numbers, an average roof does about as much as planting two trees.
Recycled Rubber and Plastic
The asphalt uses polymers from old tires and plastic bags: about 5 tires and 3,200 bags in an average roof, by Malarkey’s count.
Vista AR or a Standard Shingle?
We’ll talk through the shingle options at your free inspection, including whether the benefits of Vista AR make sense for your home and budget. A standard shingle may be the better fit, and your quote will make the choice clear.

Malarkey Warranty Info
This limited warranty covers manufacturing defects. It has exclusions, and it does not cover hail or other severe-weather damage. To qualify, the roof needs Malarkey shingles, at least three Malarkey accessories and a complete tear-off, and we have to register it within 45 days.

We Remove and Reinstall Your Panels
If your roof has solar panels, we can handle that part of the job too. Our NABCEP-certified technicians remove the panels before roofing begins, then reinstall them and test the system once the new roof is ready. You won’t need to coordinate a separate solar company, and our 25-year workmanship warranty covers the solar work as well.
- #1Remove the PanelsWe take down any installer’s system, even if that company has closed.
- #2Replace the RoofWith the panels off, our roofing crew replaces the roof and flashing.
- #3Reinstall and TestWe reinstall your panels on new mounting hardware and test the system before we leave.
FAQ
Questions Kansas City Homeowners Ask
You may have questions about the inspection, your insurance or the materials we use. We’ve answered the ones we hear most below, and we’re happy to talk through anything else you’d like to know.
Is the Roof Inspection Really Free?
Yes. There’s no charge and no obligation to hire us.
What Should I Do After a Hailstorm?
Stay off the roof and book an inspection. We check the shingles, flashing, vents and gutters, photograph the damage, and tell you whether it looks worth a claim against your deductible. If it doesn’t, we’ll say so.
Will Insurance Pay for My New Roof?
That depends on your policy and the damage. We document what we find and work with your insurer through the claim, but your insurance company makes the coverage decision.
What Does Class 4 Mean on a Shingle?
It’s the top rating under UL 2218, the standard impact test for roofing shingles. Malarkey Vista AR is rated Class 4.
Does Every Roof Get Class 4 Shingles?
No. Vista AR is an upgrade we recommend for many homes, not something every roof includes. Your quote names the exact shingle.
What Shingles Do You Install?
We are a Malarkey Certified Pro contractor, and we recommend Vista AR for many homes. We also install GAF Timberline HDZ. Your written quote names the exact shingle before any work starts.
Does Malarkey's Warranty Cover Hail Damage?
No. Malarkey's warranties, including the Certified Pro warranty, cover manufacturing defects and exclude hail and other severe weather. Storm damage goes through your homeowners insurance instead, which is why a Class 4 shingle and good documentation both matter.
Where Do You Work?
Across the Kansas City metro in Missouri and Kansas, including Kansas City, Liberty, Independence, Blue Springs, Lee’s Summit, Overland Park, Olathe and Kansas City, Kansas. Our office is at 1321 Burlington St in North Kansas City. Outside the metro? Call and ask.

What Our Customers Say About Us
Jim Kountzman
…we asked them to come out and check on a separate section of roof that was leaking thanks to another company's shoddy work. They were able to identify the problem and had their roofing team correct the issue and even color matched to the shingles on the rest of the roof.
John Smith
We also interacted with three other companies. HelioGreenTech was by far the best to work with. They were very honest, straightforward, and willing to work with our particular situation and did not apply pressure on us to make a decision with which we were not comfortable.
Mickey Kropp
While Helio Greentech was not the lowest total price, they were very competitive. You get what you pay for, and while i could have saved a thousand dollars going with the cheaper company, my initial interactions made it clear that i'd be paying for that money savings with my own time and effort.
Katie Shewmaker
The entire project team has been great to work with, and they have really gone the extra mile to make sure things are done right. Huge thank you to Zac, Mitchell, Moses, and Kai. I have a very busy schedule, and this team has been flexible and all around just great.
brenda vega
I had such a great experience with Helio GreenTech they were very clear with the pricing. They were also very good in explaining how everything thing goes in the process from start to finish.
Colene Jackson

Sarah Mayerhofer

Chuck Herling
Josh was very thorough, clear and transparent!
Tommy B
Helio removed my solar panel system from my roof so new shingles could be put on. They did a fantastic job putting everything back on the roof. Zac did an amazing job coordinating and communicating with me.
Adam Kinder
Having collected many quotes, Zac did not lie or mislead at any point, never disparaged the competition and worked tirelessly to handle all of my concerns.
Darren Eidson
Zac was very helpful and explained the whole process, did not push the sale, and was very responsive each step of the process.
Jon Cohen
They were very clear on the entire process from start to finish. They were here during parts of the install just to ensure everything was on track and going as planned. Any questions I had if they could not answer they got back to me quickly. I appreciate when someone does not know something that they admit it and follow up.
Pedro Corona
Everyone I spoke with was friendly and efficient, and the installation was completed on time with great results. I especially want to thank Adriana for her exceptional customer service, she was always patient, helpful, and quick to respond.
George Olmedo
Could not have asked for a more pleasant experience. Josh was our consultant and took the time to make sure we fully understood the entire process. Thank you!
Giselle Regalado
Had a great experience with this company. Excellent customer service from the first interaction to even after installation was completed.
