Roofing Contractor in Central Arkansas

Central Arkansas sits in the U.S. hail belt, with Faulkner County and surrounding areas experiencing multiple significant hail events annually with stones reaching 1.5 to 2.5 inches in diameter. Combined with summer temperatures exceeding 95°F and attic temperatures reaching 140–160°F in poorly ventilated homes, this accelerates material aging. This combination of severe hail, intense heat, persistent humidity, and occasional extreme cold is more demanding than the conditions most roofing materials are rated against.

Impact-resistant shingles with Class 4 ratings are now widely available and offer meaningful protection against the kind of hail events that the region sees regularly. Metal roofing has become increasingly popular in Arkansas due to its longevity and resistance to severe weather, and can also improve energy efficiency by reflecting heat away from the home. Koon Roofing can assess your home's exposure and recommend the best option for your property.

Central Arkansas storms regularly cause wind damage with gusts up to 60 mph. Hail damage in particular can be invisible from the ground but cause real long-term performance issues. We recommend annual inspections and prompt assessment after any severe weather event to catch damage early before the next storm makes it worse.

During rare winter ice events, trapped moisture in roofing cracks can freeze, expand, and exacerbate fractures, and over successive cycles, even freeze-thaw stresses can compromise underlayment and shingles. Regular gutter cleaning and maintenance prevent water backup that accelerates this damage. Koon Roofing offers gutter cleaning, repair, and replacement to keep water flowing away from your roof and foundation.
