Roofs in Evergreen: what we see

Evergreen homes range from 1940s mountain cabins to large newer homes on steep, wooded lots. Many have complex rooflines, wood decks and older cedar shake roofs. At this elevation, the strong sun breaks shingles down faster, heavy snow loads stress the framing, and ice dams form at eaves above heated rooms. We pay close attention to ice-and-water shield, ventilation and access. Steep driveways and tree cover make material delivery and tear-off planning part of the job.

Hail and storm history near Evergreen

Hail is less frequent up here than on the plains. Storm reports show about 87 hail reports within 10 miles since 2004, but mountain storms can still be severe. The June 21, 2023 storm that injured concertgoers at nearby Red Rocks produced reports of 2.5-inch hail in Indian Hills. In June 2026, 1.75-inch hail was reported near Kittredge.

Hail counts and dates are from National Weather Service and Storm Prediction Center reports compiled by StormerSite. Check your own address for hail.

Permits and the wildfire code in Evergreen

Evergreen is unincorporated, so roofing permits come from Jefferson County, not a city. The county will also check your address against its wildfire overlay map.

Jefferson County's WUI Overlay District took effect July 1, 2026, and most forested Evergreen neighborhoods are likely inside it. If you replace 25% or more of the roof, expect a Class A fire-rated roof assembly. Untreated wood shake roofs are being phased out under these rules. Check your address or read our guide to Colorado's wildfire roofing code.

Insurance claims for Evergreen homeowners

We meet your adjuster on the roof and document the damage with photos. Once you hire us, we discuss the repair scope with your insurer and submit supplements for code items and materials the first estimate missed; you stay in charge of your claim. Colorado law gives you 72 hours to cancel a roofing contract after your insurer denies the claim, and it bars roofers from paying or waiving your deductible. See our after-the-storm checklist and our guide to insurance supplements.

Questions from Evergreen homeowners

Can I keep a cedar shake roof in Evergreen?

Under the 2026 wildfire rules, most Evergreen homes replacing 25% or more of the roof need a Class A assembly, which standard cedar shake doesn't meet. Class A asphalt, metal and synthetic shake are the usual choices.

How do you handle ice dams on Evergreen homes?

We extend ice-and-water shield up from the eaves, fix ventilation so the roof deck stays cold, and add heat cable only where the roof design makes it necessary.
