Northland Kansas City, 64151 — 33 squares in IKO Dynasty. A Northland roof sees the full range of Missouri weather in a single year, so the assembly is built for wind uplift at the edges first and appearance second.

The color on this roof: Shadow Brown
The homeowner selected Shadow Brown from the IKO Dynasty line, and the swatch above is the manufacturer’s own representation of that color blend. Worth knowing before you choose one: a shingle never looks exactly like its swatch once it is up on a roof. Slope, which direction the roof faces, how much open sun it gets, and the color of your brick, siding and trim all change how it reads. That is why we bring full-size samples to the property and hold them against the house in daylight rather than asking you to pick a color off a brochure or a phone screen.
What we actually installed — and why it matters
The shingle is the part homeowners shop for. It is not the part that decides whether a roof reaches year twenty-five. That is decided by the layers underneath it and how the roof terminates at its edges — and on this project every one of them was new:
- Synthetic underlayment across the whole deck. Stronger and far more tear-resistant than felt, and it will not wrinkle if the tear-off runs into weather.
- Ice and water membrane at the eaves and in the valleys. A self-adhering barrier in the two places water genuinely backs up: behind an ice dam at the eave, and where two slopes dump into each other.
- A manufacturer starter course at eaves and rakes. Not cut-up field shingles. A purpose-made starter with a factory adhesive strip is what holds your edges down in an 80 mph straight-line wind.
- Matching hip and ridge cap. Thicker pre-formed cap that seals the peak and finishes the roof so it does not read as a repair.
- Continuous ridge ventilation. Paired with soffit intake it moves heat and moisture out of the attic. Skip it and you cook the shingles from below and void most manufacturer warranties.
- New flashing, not reused flashing. Valleys, sidewalls, chimneys and pipe boots got new metal and new boots.
