What shapes a Kansas project
Safe rooms / shelters are the priority. Enhanced roof connections. Rebate programs sometimes available.
Class 4 impact-resistant roofing earns discounts. Most KS roof claims are hail.
Slab/foundation cracking. Drainage + engineered foundations for additions.
Wind-rated garage doors and proper fastening. Garage doors are a common failure point.
Standard footings. Basements common and serve as tornado refuge.
Plan egress windows into any basement finish.
