Much higher than most — the typical roofer in Kansas sits at 1.9%. A higher share is a reason to read the critical reviews below, not a verdict.

Gardner Roofing installed a new roof for us in October 2023. The roof continued to leak. We called Gardner and they came out with a correction. The water damage is worse now than before the roof was replaced in October. Roofing nails were …

Unable to determine source of leak but made a guess with a $2,500 repair that caused more problems. Then they will not return calls. I actually wanted to try again and spend more money. Just rude arrogant people.

Garnder Roofing installed our roof on our new contruction home. We didnt like the way the corners of our roof was done, we can see plywood and into the attic through holes. We asked someone to come out and take a look at it, the st person to come out said that the roof was done properly but put some caulk in the holes just to make us feel better. We were not happy with this fix. Then Lee Gardner himself came out and looked at it. It said he had a solution for the problem and would be back in a few weeks to take care of it. It has been almost months and not a word from him. I have called and left voice mails, I have left messages with employees to have him call me back, I have sent emails and nothing.

The actual roofing job was done fine but the cleanup job was terrible. Was picking trash up from my yard and driveway for a good month after they were done. And even found a couple nails in my driveway!! Called and left message but no one got back to me. Would not recommend

We have to replace our roof on a 5 year old house. $25,000 out of my pocket! Improperly installed by Gardner. Caused warranty to be voided.

Gardner roofing was great! They tore off and replaced my roof in one day and did not leave a mess. I am so happy I chose a local roofer and would highly recommend them to anyone who needs a roof replacement.

My experience has been great. Communication between myself and the staff has been spot on. They worked around another project and always got back to me in a timely fashion. Thank you Bryce and Austin. What I was most impressed with was the …

Gardner excels at quality and customer service. Ryan on their team came out to evaluate a leak in the roof and ensured it was fixed with a roof replacement. Due to a disconnect with scheduling, the roofing team dealt with a perceived customer service issue with grace and Ryan cemented the resolution the next day. We appreciate Gardner Roofing.

I've used Gardner several times on different homes. The office staff and work crew are always professional and knowledgeable. They are competitively priced and work very quickly. Thank you, Gardner Roofing.

I used to manage apartments and utilized Gardner for roof repairs. They always repaired our roofs in a fast and professional manner. Recently my home needed roof and gutter replacement so I called them. They gave me a great bid and replaced …

We were buying a new house and had Gardner come out for an inspection after the home inspector noticed "some hail damage." Well, they found the hail damage and a few other issues I would consider significant -- those being misplaced vents and a skylight that was long past its expected life. Gardner said the vents would cause the roof to age much faster than it should, and the skylight could start being a problem at any time. Insurance agreed and we got a new roof, new vents and a new skylight -- the only thing we paid for was a shingle upgrade, but that will pay for itself with the money we will save on our homeowner's insurance. Gardner recommended we check with our agent for that very reason and I'm glad we did. Needless to say we are very pleased. Everyone we worked with was extremely professional and courteous from start to finish. Crew was fast and could barely tell anyone was there after they were gone.

Lee and his staff took excellent care of us in our time of need. Our roof was damaged during a severe wind storm. He tarped our roof within 2 days of the damage and had it completely reroofed shortly after. His crews worked very hard to …

Very efficient. Detailed information on what they will do. Wish they weren’t so far out booked. Would like to get the work done sooner

I have used Gardner roofing for new roofs on 6 or more houses. They do great work and they stand behind their work for any issues that I have had.

We hired this company to do a roof replacement. Their quote was the best of 5 roofers. They completed the entire job in a day and a half. It looked very good and the staff was very polite. They left my lot spic and span after they finished. I would recommend you to call them for a quote.

Wanted a insurance check for roof, they got there fast and told me the hard truth that even though neighbors got theirs replaced mine was totally fine. I appreciate an honest company.

Taken from the business’s own website. We have not checked any of it. These are quotes, not credentials — a roofer writing “licensed and insured” on their homepage is not evidence that they are.
