Storm & Hail Damage
Montrose sits higher and colder, and its storms carry both hail and the freeze that follows. We inspect for free, document everything, and take the claim to your insurance.
Storm & hail damage roofing →We're a Western Slope roofer based in Fruita, and Montrose is part of our regular rounds — we're down US-50 for roofs here all the time. Residential roof repair, replacement, and storm damage restoration, with the insurance claim handled for you.
Montrose anchors the Uncompahgre Valley — one of the fastest-growing towns on the Western Slope, with a housing stock that runs from historic homes near downtown to whole neighborhoods built in the last twenty years, plus small acreage properties with shops and barns on the edges of town.
Montrose's growth means an unusual mix: brand-new roofs still under builder warranties, twenty-year subdivisions all reaching replacement age together, and older homes downtown that have seen every kind of patch. We work all of it, and we'll tell you honestly which category yours falls into — including when the answer is "you've got years left."
When we inspect, we pay particular attention to sun-side slopes, ridge and edge wear from valley wind, and the freeze-thaw damage that a higher, colder winter deals out.
Montrose sits near 5,800 feet — higher and a touch colder than the Grand Valley — and the climate works on a roof accordingly.
Day after day of intense, high-elevation UV bakes the oils out of asphalt shingles, and as they dry they turn brittle, curl at the edges, and start shedding the granules that protect them. At Montrose's elevation the UV is even less forgiving than down-valley.
Colder winters mean more freeze-thaw cycles at the eaves and more ice-dam pressure than the Grand Valley sees. Add the daily expand-and-contract of high-desert temperature swings, and seams, sealants, and flashings age on a schedule.
Monsoon cells rolling off the Uncompahgre Plateau push hail and hard wind across the valley. Wind lifts and tears shingles while hail bruises them — damage that's hard to spot from the ground, which is exactly why a free inspection after a storm is worth it.

Residential roofing across the Uncompahgre Valley — repair, replacement, and storm work.
Montrose sits higher and colder, and its storms carry both hail and the freeze that follows. We inspect for free, document everything, and take the claim to your insurance.
Storm & hail damage roofing →A full tear-off and replacement for Montrose homes — most done in a single day, cleaned up before we go. Shingle, metal, tile, or composite — your call, our honest recommendation.
Roof replacement →Leaks, lifted shingles, and worn flashing fixed fast — and an honest word on whether a repair will hold. We find where water actually gets in, not where the stain shows.
Roof repair →We get on your Montrose roof, photograph what we find, and give you a clear, no-obligation assessment. You keep the photos either way, even when the answer is "you're fine."
Free roof inspection →Standing seam and Tuff Rib built for a valley that gets real winter — and real sun. Standing seam and Tuff Rib, installed by our own crew.
Metal roofing →Asphalt shingle roofs in the colors and styles that fit Montrose homes and neighborhoods. Impact-rated options too — worth asking your insurer about in hail country.
Shingle roofing →APX Roof Renew™ rejuvenates asphalt shingles that still have life left — a soy-based treatment that restores flexibility and extends the life of your roof, so you can put off a full replacement.
We inspect first and tell you straight whether your roof is a good candidate — it isn't right for every roof.
The roofing itself is the easy part to promise. Here's what Western Slope homeowners actually tell us they remember.
Storm and hail claims are where homeowners get stuck. We document the damage and work your insurance from the first inspection to the final invoice.
How our insurance process works →A typical Montrose tear-off, replacement, and cleanup happens in a single day — less time with your home exposed.
We protect the yard, run magnets for stray nails, and haul off the old roof. You'd never know we were here.
No pressure and no pitch. If your roof has years left, we'll tell you that instead of trying to sell you a new one.
"Our roof was completed in one day and it looks amazing."
"APX Roofing replaced our roof and their crew was friendly and professional. You could tell this wasn't their first rodeo!"
If you're in or around the Uncompahgre Valley, we cover you. A few of the areas we're in most:
We're based in Fruita, a bit over an hour up US-50, and Montrose is part of our regular service area — we're down this way for roofs all the time. Same crew, same standards, no travel charges for the trip.
Yes — we handle storm and hail claims from the first inspection to the final invoice, working directly with your adjuster.
Honestly: we're based in Fruita, so Montrose runs on our scheduled southern rounds rather than same-hour response — but active leaks jump the queue, and when you call we'll tell you exactly when we can be on the roof instead of a vague promise. Meanwhile a bucket and dated phone photos of the ceiling protect your claim.
It sharpens the ventilation and ice-and-water-shield conversation — ice dams are a bigger factor at 5,800 feet than in the Grand Valley. The materials conversation stays similar; the detailing at the eaves matters more. We spec for it.
Montrose, Olathe, Colona, Ridgway, Ouray, and Cimarron — plus Delta County to the north and the Grand Valley beyond it.
Yes, and they're some of our favorite work — downtown Montrose has housing stock the Grand Valley mostly doesn't, with steep pitches, old flashing details, and sometimes several roof layers. We inspect before we quote and tell you what that specific roof needs, not what a subdivision template says.
