Nederland roofing that gives $1,000 back

Roofs in Nederland: what we see

Nederland and the surrounding mountain neighborhoods have cabins, older mountain homes and newer builds on forested lots. At this elevation, the big threats are snow load, ice dams, intense UV and high wind rather than hail. We focus on ice-and-water shield, ventilation, snow retention on metal roofs, and fastening that holds in mountain wind.

Hail and storm history near Nederland

Hail is less common up here. Storm reports show only about 15 reports within 10 miles of Nederland since 2004, though some have reached 2 inches, near Coal Creek in 2009 and 2007. Snow and wind do more damage most years.

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 Nederland

Homes inside the Town of Nederland need a town permit. Homes outside town are in unincorporated Boulder County or Gilpin County.

Unincorporated Boulder County and Gilpin County areas around Nederland have their own wildfire rules covering nearly all homes, so expect a Class A roof. Inside town, the town's adopted code and the state map apply. Check your address or read our guide to Colorado's wildfire roofing code.

Insurance claims for Nederland 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 Nederland homeowners

Is metal roofing good in Nederland?

Very. It sheds snow, handles wind and is Class A when installed properly. Add snow guards over doors and decks.

How do you prevent ice dams at 8,000 feet?

We combine ice-and-water shield with balanced ventilation and air sealing so the roof deck stays cold.
