“We’re excited and honored by Johnson County’s continued recognition of our work,” said owner and CEO Sharon Cornolo. “As a locally-owned and operated company, we place great importance on our community, which is why we’re so excited by our Best of Johnson County wins.”
With more than 30 years in business, Century has built its reputation for excellence over the course of completing more than 30,000 roofing jobs. Century has built its business on three competitive advantages:
- Keeping it affordable. With high job volume and a singular focus on roofing, Century can procure construction materials at favorable rates, keeping prices down for customers.
- Delivering fast service. Because Century stocks all of its materials on site, it’s able to start work on a project without relying on supply chains that may have delays.
- Leveraging new technology. Century’s recent investment in AI and drone technology enables its certified roofing inspectors to detect and identify roofing anomalies, facilitating a more accurate assessment of your roof’s condition.
And, being seasoned in the realities of Midwestern weather, Century has deep experience working to repair roofs damaged by storms.
“We understand how stressful it is to go through severe storms,” Cornolo said. “That’s why we offer concierge-level service to our clients. If we find damage, we will work with your insurance adjuster and help you file a claim. Once you have hired Century Roofing to complete your storm repair project, you won’t have to worry about anything else.”
Whether you need a re-roof, complete roof replacement, or roof repairs you can turn to Century Roofing in Kansas City.
