Kenneth City
A planned 1950s town on its third roof
Developer Sidney Colen founded Kenneth City in 1957 and named it after his son, Kenneth. The town covers less than a square mile, and it describes itself as a safe, friendly small town.
Almost everything was built in one postwar burst. The Census Bureau puts the median construction year at 1964, and nine in ten of the town's roughly 2,150 housing units were built by 1979. About four in five are owner-occupied, so these are mostly homes people have lived in for years.
A house from that era has usually been roofed at least twice. The first roofs are long gone, and the question now is what condition the deck is in underneath the latest layer.
Local advantage
Why Kenneth City homeowners call us
Deck-first replacements
On 1960s homes we expose and check the sheathing before closing it in, and re-nail or replace what is weak.
Shingle expertise
The block ranches of the town suit architectural shingle, and we install it with the starter strips and edge details that matter in wind.
Permits for the town
We prepare the permit under our state license and book the inspection.

The roofs on postwar ranches share a few recurring conditions, and a good estimate accounts for them from the start.
- Layered roofs, with a second covering laid over the first, adding weight and hiding deck damage.
- Gable end overhangs where wind can get under the edge if the fastening is poor.
- Original plumbing vents with cracked boots.
- Small attic vents that cannot move the heat out in summer.
- Fascia and soffit rot behind old gutters.

Questions
Kenneth City roofing questions, answered
My roof is on its third layer. Can it stay that way?
We generally strip to the deck, so we can inspect and repair the sheathing and install the right underlayment. Stripping also removes the extra weight of old layers.
Do you serve the whole town?
Yes. Kenneth City is small and sits between St. Petersburg and Pinellas Park, so it is a short trip from where we work, and we can come to any street in town.
What roof is best for a ranch home here?
Architectural shingle is the usual choice on a ranch home here because it balances cost and wind performance. Metal is an option for owners who want a longer service life and can accept a higher starting cost.
Can I get a quote before deciding?
Yes. The inspection and the written estimate are free and carry no obligation, so you can compare what we find and propose with any other contractor before you decide on anything.
