Gutters, Windows & Solar Detach and Reset
Hail rarely hits just the roof, and a roof replacement often means the panels have to come off. We restore the exterior on one claim: one-piece gutter runs formed on site, windows, paint, garage doors, and solar detach and reset, with one crew and one schedule.
Learn moreHail just hit your street. What should you do first?
Most of what decides how a hail claim goes happens in the first few days, before anyone has been on the roof. Here's the order we'd do it in on our own houses.
If water is coming in right now, skip the list and call (719) 337-2126. We tarp 24/7.
1. Stop the water
If a window's broken or a ceiling is dripping, get it covered. Homeowner policies generally expect you to prevent further damage once you know about it, so a tarp and a photo of the tarp protect the claim as well as the house.
2. Write down the date and time
Note when the storm hit and roughly how long it lasted. Your carrier will ask for a date of loss, and a claim tied to the wrong storm is harder to pay.
3. Photograph the hail, with a coin for scale
The National Weather Service counts hail of 1 inch, about the size of a quarter, as severe. Around that size is where we start expecting bruised shingles, and a photo with a coin or a tape measure beside the stones is useful evidence.
4. Look at the soft metals from the ground
Dents in the gutters, downspouts, window wraps and the fins on the air conditioner are visible without a ladder. If they're dented, book an inspection. Don't climb a wet roof to check.
5. Don't sign with the first door‑knocker
Out‑of‑state crews reach El Paso and Pueblo counties within days of a big storm. Under Colorado Senate Bill 12-038, any residential roofing contract over $1,000 has to be in writing, and you can cancel within 72 hours of a written claim denial. Read the contract before you sign it.
6. Inspect before you file
A denied claim can still sit on your loss history without paying you anything. We inspect for free, then tell you whether it's worth filing.
A new roof over a bad attic is a problem you can't see.
Most roofers replace the shingles and leave. Alta checks what's underneath. A beautiful new roof over an under‑ventilated attic ages fast, traps heat and moisture, and can fall outside your shingle warranty from day one. We evaluate intake and exhaust on every roof, then build a balanced Lomanco ventilation system before the shingles go on.
We go in the attic
Not just a look from the roof. We check the deck, insulation, existing vents and where your bath fans actually terminate.
We check intake, not just exhaust
Blocked or missing intake is the most common problem we find, and the one most often overlooked.
Warranty‑safe by design
Manufacturers exclude ventilation‑related damage. We size the system to code so your coverage stays intact.
F-Wave synthetic shingles, built to beat Colorado hail.
Tired of replacing the same asphalt roof after every storm? F-Wave REVIA is a single‑piece polymer shingle that looks like premium slate or shake but is rated Class 4 for 2 inch hail and 150 mph wind, and backed by a 50 year warranty. In southern Colorado, that is a roof built for the weather you actually get.
Highest Class 4 hail rating
Tested at more than two times the strength of a leading asphalt shingle, so it shrugs off the hail that totals an ordinary roof.
Often a lower insurance premium
Many Colorado insurers discount an impact‑resistant Class 4 roof, and fewer claims means fewer deductibles over its life.
The look of slate, without the weight
The REVIA Designer Slate and Hand‑Split Shake collections give you a high‑end roof that does not fade or shed granules as it ages.
We turn a confusing claim into six simple steps.
Most roofers install shingles. Alta manages the entire claim, so you always know exactly what happens next, and you're never left arguing with an adjuster alone.
- 01
Free Inspection
We check for hail and wind damage before you ever call it in, so you only file when it's worth it.
- 02
We Document
Every strike photographed and measured, building the evidence packet your adjuster needs.
- 03
We Meet
We meet your adjuster on the roof so nothing gets missed or lowballed.
- 04
Approved
Your claim is approved and your first (ACV) check is issued. We review the scope line by line.
- 05
We Restore
Our local crew rebuilds your roof and every damaged trade, clean, fast and to code.
- 06
Closed Out
We invoice the final depreciation and hand you a fully closed‑out claim.
*On a qualified storm claim, your deductible is typically your only out‑of‑pocket cost for the covered restoration. We'll show you exactly how it works on your free inspection.
Why do roofs here wear out so fast?
A shingle that would last a long, quiet life in Ohio gets hit from six directions here. These are the six we build every roof against, and the reason we won't spec a roof in Monument the same way as one in Pueblo.
- Hail
1,500+ storms since 1950
El Paso County is among the hail alley counties with more than 1,500 recorded hailstorms since 1950. The Rocky Mountain Insurance Association puts a July 2016 Colorado Springs storm at roughly $352.8 million in insured losses, and a July 2009 Pueblo storm at roughly $232.8 million.
- Sun
6,035 feet of thin air
Colorado Springs sits at 6,035 feet, where the UV load is higher than at sea level. It dries out asphalt and cracks the rubber collars on plumbing vents years before the shingles wear out, which is why a split pipe boot is the leak we find most often.
- Cold
Freeze‑thaw, most of the year
Warm afternoons and freezing nights push water into every gap and then freeze it there. Up at 6,960 feet in Monument, add real snow load and ice dams, which is why every replacement we do gets ice‑and‑water membrane at the eaves and valleys.
- Wind
Downslope gusts and open mesa
The west side of the Springs takes gusts off the Rampart Range, and Pueblo West sits on open mesa with little to slow the wind. Wind creases tabs and breaks seal strips, and it's a separate insurance loss from hail with its own evidence.
- Heat
Pueblo at 4,692 feet
About 1,300 feet lower than the Springs, and hotter and drier. Summer deck temperatures loosen fasteners and bake the shingles brittle, the seal strips let go, and the next windstorm finishes the job at the rakes and ridge.
- Fire
The wildland edge
Black Forest and parts of the Tri‑Lakes area sit in the wildland‑urban interface. Class A rated roof assemblies and ember‑resistant vents are a real conversation there, and we'll spec to your covenant or your insurer's requirement.
Roofers who actually live under Pikes Peak.
Alta is locally owned and family‑run, with 90 years of combined team experience behind the crews. We are your neighbours in El Paso and Pueblo counties, not an out‑of‑state crew that vanishes after the season, and we know exactly what hail, high‑altitude sun and freeze‑thaw do to a roof down here.
We'll never offer to pay your deductible
Colorado Senate Bill 12-038 prohibits it, and it puts your claim and your coverage at risk. We do it by the book.
Inspect before you file
A denied claim can still sit on your loss history. We check first, then advise, with no pressure either way.
Ask about your Class 4 credit
C.R.S. 10-4-110.8 requires Colorado insurers to account for impact-resistant roofing in their rates. We document it so you can claim the credit.
What decides the price of a roof here?
We don't publish a price per square, because two houses with the same floor plan can land a long way apart once you know what's under the shingles. These are the things that actually move the number, and every one of them shows up itemised in our written scope.
On a covered storm claim, your deductible is typically your only out‑of‑pocket cost for the covered work. For upgrades and anything outside a claim, financing is available.
Squares
Roofers price by the square, which is 100 square feet of roof surface. Pitch and overhangs make your roof bigger than your floor, so we measure every slope rather than guessing from a satellite image.
Pitch
Steep roofs need harness work and slow the crew down. Between 2/12 and 4/12, asphalt needs a low‑slope underlayment detail, and below 2/12 it needs membrane instead of shingle.
Layers
Two or three old layers mean more tear‑off and more disposal. We check at the inspection so it's in the quote, not a surprise on the first morning.
Decking
Soft or delaminated sheathing gets replaced at a per‑sheet rate we agree in writing before we start.
Ventilation
Bringing intake and exhaust up to code is usually a modest line item, and it's the one that keeps your shingle warranty intact.
Material
Architectural shingle, Class 4 impact‑resistant shingle, standing seam or stone‑coated steel. We price the options side by side so you see the real difference.
Three Colorado rules worth knowing before you sign.
None of these are fine print. They decide whether your contract protects you, whether your insurer gives you a credit, and whether your new roof passes inspection.
- Senate Bill 12-038
Your contract
Any residential roofing contract over $1,000 has to be in writing. It must state that the roofer can't pay, waive or rebate your deductible, and it gives you 72 hours to cancel after written notice that your claim was denied in whole or in part. All of that is in ours.
- C.R.S. 10-4-110.8
Your premium
Homeowner insurers writing in Colorado have to account for impact‑resistant roofing in their rates. The credit isn't automatic. Your carrier usually wants the UL 2218 Class 4 certificate, the closed permit and photos, and we send them.
- Permits by address
Your inspection
Colorado Springs, Fountain, Monument and unincorporated El Paso County permit through the Pikes Peak Regional Building Department, which requires a permit for any reroof over one square. The City of Pueblo uses the Pueblo Regional Building Department, and Pueblo West moved to the Pueblo County Building Division on 1 January 2026.
What goes on your roof, and who stands behind it?
IKO is our primary shingle brand and we're an IKO Roof Pro. We're GAF Certified too, and manufacturer warranties are available on any shingle type we install. If your HOA specifies a product, or you already have one in mind, we'll quote it.
The rating is on the material. The performance is on the install. A Class 4 shingle nailed high, over a starved attic, with field shingles cut down for the ridge, is a Class 4 product with a compromised warranty.
Architectural shingle
Laminated architectural lines such as IKO Cambridge and IKO Dynasty, and GAF Timberline HDZ. Heavier than an old three‑tab, with better wind ratings and the widest colour range.
Class 4 impact‑resistant
Lines such as IKO Nordic and GAF Timberline AS II carry a UL 2218 Class 4 rating, which is what Colorado carriers look for before they apply an impact‑resistant credit.
Metal and low‑slope
Standing seam and stone‑coated steel for exposed sites like the Pueblo West mesa, and heat‑welded TPO membrane for flat and low‑slope sections.
Two warranties, both in your name
The manufacturer warranty covers the materials. Alta's lifetime workmanship warranty covers the install. We register the manufacturer warranty for you and hand you both at closeout.

What Colorado families say about Alta.
Published testimonials from Alta customers, in their own words.
“Working with Josh at Alta Roofing was a breath of fresh air. He was honest, knowledgeable, and always followed through. Our roof replacement went smoothly and was done quickly. It's rare to find someone who actually cares, Josh and the team truly do. Best roofing company in Colorado!”
“These guys are top notch and local! Adam and his team at Alta Roofing walked us through the roofing inspection and process every step of the way. They communicated their findings clearly, making sure we were comfortable with their explanations. Would recommend!”
“We had a leak in our roof and Alta Roofing answered our phone call! They were fast, affordable, and professional. I highly recommend them as a trusted roofing company for any roof repairs you may need.”
“Alta Roofing is top notch in my opinion. I will only deal with Alta Roofing from here on out. The staff (Michelle, Nate and Dre) is very knowledgeable, personable, understanding, considerate, compassionate, safe and professional, but above all else they are honest, truthful and real. That means everything to me. They back their product and their work 100 percent. They fought for me and backed me up. I will refer Alta Roofing to everyone I know and meet. Thank you again so much!”
“Alta Roofing does an amazing job replacing your roof. If you are looking for the right team, contact Michelle Captain. She has integrity and will take care of your home as if it were her own. She gives you an honest report on your roof, shares photos of the damage, and the inspections are free. She knows how to work with your insurance company and recommends the right shingle for Colorado's harsh weather. Ask her how to get a free upgrade to a Class 4 shingle. The team is very respectful of your home and yard, they take before and after photos including aerial drone shots, and they run a magnet over the ground to pick up any stray nails. I highly recommend Alta Roofing!”
“We are selling our home and needed a licensed professional to inspect our roof for structural integrity and hail damage. Thankfully the roof was in great shape and did not need replacing. They found some exposed nails and, without being asked, took it upon themselves to seal them. We could not have had a better experience. Incredibly professional and easy to work with. Would highly recommend!”

Roofing & insurance questions.
On a covered claim, your only out-of-pocket is typically your policy deductible. The approved claim covers the rest of the restoration, including any recoverable depreciation released once the work is finished. On your free inspection we walk you through your specific policy, your deductible and whether it is a percentage or a flat figure, so there are no surprises when the first check arrives.
You usually cannot tell from the ground, which is exactly why our inspection is free and photo-documented. We check the soft metals first, the gutters, downspouts, vents and window wraps, because they bruise before shingles do and they help date the storm. Then we lay out test squares on each slope and count the hits the way an adjuster will. Then you get an honest answer on whether a claim is worth filing.
We recommend the opposite. Filing a claim that gets denied can still sit on your loss history, so let us inspect and document first. If there is genuine, claimable damage, we help you file it right the first time and we meet your adjuster on the roof.
No, and be cautious of any Colorado roofer who offers to. Colorado Senate Bill 12-038 prohibits a residential roofing contractor from paying, waiving or rebating any part of your insurance deductible on a claim-funded job, and the same law requires that statement in writing in your contract. We do it by the book, which protects your home and your coverage.
Usually. C.R.S. 10-4-110.8 requires homeowner insurers writing in Colorado to account for impact-resistant roofing in their rates, and most carriers pass that through as a credit. The size of the credit varies by carrier, and it is not automatic, you generally need qualifying UL 2218 Class 4 materials, a closed permit and the manufacturer's certificate sent to your insurer. We put that packet together for you.
The roof itself is usually a one to two day job once materials are on site. The longer part of the timeline is the insurer's, and the permit. We pull the permit, keep you posted at every step, and we do not stock materials on your driveway before the permit is issued, because in the Pikes Peak region that earns a stop-work order and a triple fee.
A lifetime workmanship warranty from Alta on the installation, plus the manufacturer warranty on the materials. Manufacturer warranties are available for any shingle type we install, and IKO is our primary brand. We register the warranty in your name and hand you the paperwork at closeout rather than leaving you to chase it.
Yes. Financing is available through a broker for homeowners who would rather spread the cost than pay it in one go, including on repairs and upgrades that sit outside an insurance claim. We will talk you through the options at the inspection.
Yes, 24/7, including emergency tarping. If a storm opens your roof at nine at night, call us and we will get it covered and dry before the next round of weather, then deal with the permanent repair and the claim in daylight.
You pay your deductible.* We handle the rest.
On a qualified storm claim, your deductible is typically your only out-of-pocket cost. Book a free, no-pressure roof inspection. We'll tell you honestly whether you have a claimable storm loss, and handle everything if you do.
