Edmond Homeowners Are Replacing Roofs Earlier Local Contractor McCann’s Roofing Shares What’s Causing the Shift

After hundreds of local inspections, McCann’s Roofing & Construction report that ventilation issues, aging installations, and proactive planning are driving a new roof replacement trend across Edmond neighborhoods.

(Isstories Editorial):- Edmond, Oklahoma Feb 25, 2026 (Issuewire.com) – A growing number of Edmond homeowners are choosing to replace their roofs before major storm damage occurs, according to new project trends reported by locally owned McCann’s Roofing & Construction — a shift that is changing how long roofs last and how families plan for home maintenance.

After completing hundreds of inspections across Edmond neighborhoods over the past year, the company says the most common issue isn’t catastrophic storm damage — it’s small installation and ventilation problems that quietly shorten a roof’s lifespan.

“We’re meeting more homeowners who expected their roof to last another five to ten years,” said Shay Brown, co-owner of McCann’s Roofing & Construction. “What we’re finding is that many of those roofs were never installed to perform in Oklahoma weather in the first place.”

The Hidden Problems Edmond Homeowners Don’t See From the Ground

According to the company, the most frequent early-replacement causes include:

  • Improper attic ventilation trapping heat and moisture

  • Incorrectly sealed shingle systems

  • Storm damage that was never documented

  • Aging roofs installed with outdated methods

These issues often remain invisible until they begin affecting energy efficiency, interior comfort, or insurance coverage.

“Most families aren’t calling us because their roof is leaking,” Brown said. “They’re calling because something doesn’t feel right inside the home — higher utility bills, uneven temperatures, or visible wear they didn’t expect so soon.”

Why Edmond Is Leading the Trend

As one of Oklahoma’s fastest-growing and most homeowner-focused communities, Edmond residents are taking a more proactive approach to protecting property value.

Instead of waiting for emergency repairs after a hailstorm, many are scheduling professional inspections to:

  • Understand the true condition of their roof

  • Plan replacement on their own timeline

  • Upgrade to longer-lasting systems

  • Avoid rushed insurance decisions

“This is a very informed community,” Brown said. “Edmond homeowners want to make smart, long-term choices for their families and their homes. They’re not just looking for a quick fix — they’re looking for a roof that’s installed to last.”

A Neighborhood-by-Neighborhood Approach

As a family-owned company based in Edmond, McCann’s says its work is driven by long-term relationships, with many projects coming from repeat customers and referrals within the same neighborhoods.

“We don’t just work in Edmond — we live here,” Brown said. “When we replace a roof, we know we’re going to drive past that home for the next 20 years. That changes how we approach every detail of the installation.”

Planning Before the Next Storm Season

With another severe weather season approaching, local roofing professionals say homeowners who act early have more options, more time to make informed decisions, and significantly less stress.

“After a storm, everything becomes urgent,” Brown said. “Right now, Edmond homeowners have the advantage of planning ahead, choosing the right system for their home, and protecting their investment on their terms.”
