Broomfield roofs built for hail, wind and snow

From the ground you usually cannot tell. Hail bruises asphalt shingles and knocks the granules loose, which shows up as soft dark spots and grit in the gutters. Dented gutters, dinged AC fins and split screens are good clues that the roof took hits too. We will walk it and show you photos either way.

It depends on how much damage there is and what your deductible looks like. If only a handful of shingles are affected, a repair out of pocket is often the smarter move. If the whole slope is bruised, a claim usually makes sense. We give you the facts and let you decide.

Class 4 is the highest impact rating an asphalt shingle can earn. On the Front Range, where hail comes nearly every summer, they hold up noticeably better than standard shingles and many Colorado insurers offer a premium discount for them. For most homes here we think they are worth it.

Often, yes. Broomfield winters have plenty of dry sunny days above freezing, and shingles seal fine once the sun hits them. We watch the forecast and will not tear off ahead of a snow event.

Most single-family homes in Broomfield are torn off and re-roofed in one to two days. Larger homes, steep pitches, or roofs with multiple layers to remove can run longer, and we will tell you before we start.
