Who “is” Bass Roofing?

In May 2015, Bruce Lamprecht approached Kirk Maynord with an offer to purchase the company.  Bruce had developed some back issues that prevented him from carrying on his day-to-day work as a roofing contractor.  Bruce and Kirk have been friends for over 25 years and he didn’t want to sell to just anyone. Bruce offered to continue to lend his expertise but allow Kirk to purchase and run the company.

Bass Roofing and Siding, INC., continued to serve the OKC Metro following Bruce’s commitment to provide a quality product with integrity and honesty.  Kirk continued to build on that principle by shying away from door knocking and building the business through word of mouth and strong relationships with realtors and insurance agents. Bass Roofing and Siding, INC. continued to grow, doubling in revenue each year.  In 2020 the company had grown enough for Kirk to bring on some additional team members. Longtime friend Dan Grimes joined as a salesman and home improvement consultant.  Together, along with Bass’s main contractor James Walden, have expanded the business across the state, requiring the name to be changed to Bass Roofing of Oklahoma.

  • Insurance Claim:
    • If your roof is being replaced due to storm damage and therefore will be paid for by your insurance provider, the process from start to finish may depend upon your insurance claim.

QUALITY ROOFING

How do I avoid roofing scammers to ensure a quality product?

Storm Chasers

  • After a big storm, often roofing companies will attempt to scam you by rushing you into signing a contract when your roof may be perfectly fine. Many of these companies are from out-of-town and will ‘follow the storm’, meaning they will leave town not long after the storms, unable and unwilling to service any kind of warranty they promised. Others may be ‘in-town’ storm chasers, who may be from the area, but have no roofing expertise, yet suddenly jump into the roofing business simply because there is a significant opportunity to make money. These types of companies may be recognized by the following:
    • Door-to-door salesmen or salesmen who hand out flyers
    • Rushing you into a contract before you have time to research
    • Present limited time offers
    • Will fake damage
    • Promise quick fixes

Other signs of roofing scams to look out for:

  • Companies that offer to pay your entire deductible
  • Companies that request a large deposit before work begins
  • Does not have proper licensing or insurance
What are the differences in quality and price in roofing products?

Shingles come in different qualities and grades:

Entry-level Three Tab Shingles $

  • Most often used for standard ridge cap
  • An affordable option for rental properties on a budge

Architecturally Laminate $$

  • Most commonly used
  • Widely accepted as the shingle of choice for most residential roofing systems

Impact Resistant Laminate Shingles $$$

  • Designed to better withstand the impact of large hail

Designer Asphalt Shingles $$$$

  • Come in a wide variety of styles, colors, sizes, and shapes

Designer Slate, Tile, Copper, Shingles/Metal Roofing $$$$$

  • Normally used on expensive homes made to last for many years
  • Unique look
How long will my new roof last?

Most manufactures build shingles to last 30-50 depending on the type of shingle you decide upon; however, with the weather extremes in Oklahoma, the average life of an asphalt shingle is 10 to 15 years.

  • The life of a roof may not be dictated by the quality of the shingle but the severity of the weather, including:
    • Hail
    • Wind
    • Snow/ Ice
  • As a result, we encourage you to have your roof routinely inspected by a knowledgeable roofing company and practice roof self-care.

ROOF SELF-CARE

How can I care for my roof to maintain longevity of my new roof?

Re-roofing your house may not be a do-it-yourself project; however, there is routine maintenance that can be done on your roof by you! Here are some tips to protect your roof from damage:

  • Clean off debris
    • Debris, such as leaves, may accumulate and clog up your pipes, skylights, chimneys, and valleys.
  • Gutter Maintenance
    • It is important to clean out your gutters to maintain normal water flow to prevent leaks and roof rot.
  • Trim trees
    • Prune trees to keep limbs away from your house. This will help prevent leaves to land on your house, as well as prevent limbs from falling on your roof caused by inclement weather.
  • Roof leak awareness
    • Knowing the signs of a roof leak can significantly impact the damage it causes on your house. If you notice damp, discolored walls, or mold and mildew, you may have a leak in your roof.
How often should I get my roof inspected?

While roof self-care is important to maintain the integrity of your new roof, periodic professional assessment of your roof is important to detect potential repairs to prevent further damage. The National Roofing Contractors Association suggests that your roof should be inspected twice a year. Often, if a product fails to meet their expected lifespan, manufacturer warranties may guarantee financial coverage for replacement. Additionally, it is important that you get your roof inspected after a hailstorm or major weather event.
