About HKC Roofing & Construction

HKC Roofing & Construction is a roofing company in Louisville, KY. They specialize in Commercial Roofing, Shingles and Metal Roofing.

Commercial Roofing

Commercial roofing tends to have very little slope or be entirely flat, with a focus on being strong enough to hold requied equipment. Commercial roofing can be single ply, built-up, metal, and more. Because they're flat, commercial roofs require more maintenance.

Shingles

The shingles on your home are both protective and decorative. These overlapping pieces of asphalt, wood, clay, slate, metal, or composite materials create a waterproof barrier that protects your home from the elements. They are available in multiple colors and include 3-tab, architecural, or luxury varieties. Asphalt shingles are the most common and budget-friendly, while clay, wooden, or composite shingles can add character and style to your home.

Metal Roofing

Metal roofing can be made of aluminum, copper, corrugated metal, or stone-coated steel. It's very long-lasting, durable, and energy efficient, making it a popular roofing material for both residential and commercial buildings.

Gutters

During gutter installation, professional roofers will remove the old gutters and downspouts from the eaves and brackets and check for damage such as rotted or failing boards and facia. From there, they will measure for new gutters, install them, and put on new downspouts and elbows. Finally, they'll clean the area and leave your home ready for the next rainstorm!

Soffits

Soffits and facia are more than just nice trim -- they help protect your roof. The soffit is below the overhang at the edge of the roof and protects the home from water under the eaves while providing ventilation for the attic. The facia runs alongside the roof overhang and supports the shingles and gutter system. They are generally made of the same material as your home siding and need regular inspection to watch for deterioration.

Insulation

Proper home insulation helps keep your home comfortable and lowers heating and cooling bills. Attic insulation helps keep summer heat contained and winter cold out, while basement insulation helps keep heat and cold from seeping in through the foundation. Common insulation materials include fiberglass, celulose, spray foam, and foam board.

Window Installation

The type of window installation that's best for your home depends on the age, condition, and exterior materials of your house and existing window. Full-frame window installation includes a new window, frame, sill, and internal and external trim. The new window is sealed and insulated during the install. Pocket installation involves replacing the window and keeping the current frame, and is fast and affordable.

Window Repair

Window replacement entails removing the old window and installing a new one. Consider window replacement when the seals start to leak or fail, there's visible glass damage, condensation forms inside or between panes, or the windows are hard to open and close. You can also replace windows to improve insulation, energy efficiency, and UV protection.

Siding

Home siding generally lasts 10-15 years. You may need to hire a professional to fix or replace siding if you notice cracks, warps, blisters, bubbles, fungus, or mold. Repairs or replacement may also be warranted if you have severe fading or signs of internal moisture on walls. You can also upgrade your siding to improve insulation and reduce heating and cooling bills or to transition to a material that is easier to maintain.

Doors

Doors protect your home from both intruders and weather while also providing beauty and style to your property. Entry doors should have a solid core, strike plates with long screws, and reinforced glass. Sliding glass doors and patio doors should have reinforced glass, secure locks, and tight seals. A professional can assess, repair, or replace both exterior and interior doors.
