Arvada experiences moderate hail exposure. While not in the most intense zone, storms that develop along the foothills or track across the metro can still produce damaging hail in the 1 to 2 inch range. Signs you might have damage include dented gutters or downspouts, chipped paint on window frames, and damaged outdoor furniture or AC units. However, most roof hail damage is invisible from the ground. The only reliable way to know is a professional inspection from on top of the roof. Gates Enterprises provides free hail damage inspections for Arvada homeowners with no obligation.

Colorado's Front Range weather puts Arvada roofs through extreme cycles: intense summer UV, hail events, rapid freeze-thaw in winter, and high winds that can exceed 60 mph during downslope events. Regular inspections help catch weather-related damage early, before small issues become expensive problems. Gates Enterprises recommends annual inspections for all Arvada homes.

Spring (March through May) and fall (September through November) are the best times for roofing in Colorado. Summer works well too, though afternoon storms can interrupt work schedules. Winter installations are possible but require special cold-weather techniques. That said, we perform roof inspection year-round in Arvada. If you have storm damage or an active leak, don't wait for the "perfect" season. Call (720) 766-3377 and we'll get your project scheduled.

We strongly recommend it. A general home inspector checks the roof briefly from the ground or edge. A certified roofing contractor inspects every component from on top of the roof, where most damage is actually visible. In Arvada's climate, catching hidden issues before closing can save you significant unexpected expenses. The cost of a specialized inspection is minimal compared to the potential savings.

Our Arvada roof inspections cover the entire roofing system: shingle condition and granule loss, flashing integrity around chimneys, vents, and skylights, pipe boot seals, ridge cap condition, gutter attachment and condition, soffit and fascia, and attic ventilation when accessible. Every finding is photographed and documented. You receive a written report with our honest assessment and recommendation.

Many Arvada homes were built in the 1950s through 1970s, which means a significant number of roofs in the area are original or past their expected lifespan. Older homes often have unique framing and ventilation configurations that require experienced assessment. Regardless of your roof's age, a professional inspection gives you a clear picture of its current condition and remaining lifespan. Gates Enterprises provides honest assessments. If your roof has years of life left, we'll tell you.

Manufacturer certifications matter because they determine your warranty options. An uncertified contractor installing GAF shingles in Arvada can only offer a basic manufacturer warranty. Gates Enterprises, as a GAF Master Elite contractor, can offer the Golden Pledge warranty with 25 years of workmanship coverage. We hold four certifications: GAF Master Elite, Owens Corning Preferred, Malarkey Emerald Premium, and CertainTeed Shingle Master. Fewer than 2% of roofers nationwide hold even one of these credentials.
