Expect the Unexpected
Colorado is full of unpredictability, from our roads to our sports teams and even weather. In Colorado, wind picks up and can wreak havoc across the Front Range, from Fort Collins all the way to Colorado Springs and even further south. The force of the wind is able to carry debris and hurl it against anything in its path, including your home and roof. When it snows, the weight of the snow can cause the objects it covers to weaken and fall.
Even pine needles, leaves and other small debris can cause major problems to your home and roof if you’re not careful. This debris can pile up in gutters and spots on your roof, which can cause fires, roof flooding due to clogged irrigation and much more. Small animals like squirrels or birds can also use debris to make nests on your home or roof, and their movement can cause damage to your roof as well. It’s best to be proactive when it comes to debris damage to your roof.
How to Avoid Debris Damage
To avoid damage created by trees, debris, or any electoral issues, we suggest:
- Manage foliage on your property frequently and as a rule of thumb.
- Remove any branches that are within six feet of your roof.
We are available for any questions you may have concerning this maintenance or possible damage. Reducing damage created by debris as well as moisture will protect your roof from any electrical problems.
CAREFUL, it’s also not safe to get up on the roof yourself for roof maintenance or checking for debris damage. If you need an expert to come and inspect your roof for damage caused by debris, call Parker Roofing Contractors and we’ll inspect your roof for FREE.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Do I Do About My Roof? We get that you’re not always keeping tabs on your roof, so when you finally have to deal with it you have a lot of questions that need to be addressed, which is why we are providing a few answers to frequently asked questions:
If you ignore repairing or replacing your roof when there are signs that its integrity has been compromised, it will lead to damaging the entire structure of your home as it becomes more exposed to the elements, which will deteriorate the siding, interior and foundation.
If you’re noticing leaks, your roof has already been compromised. It is recommended by the National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA) that you get your home’s roof inspected at least twice a year – preferably every spring and fall season. Inspecting the roof for certain signs will help prevent total roof damage, signs like:
- Missing or cracked shingles
- Blistering or peeling paint
- Soggy, damp shingles
- Leakage in the attic
- Chimney leaks
There are many other signs that your home’s roof needs replacement. We can help find and point them out (if any). You can get your roof inspected for FREE by Parker Roofing Contractors.
A roof has an average lifespan of about 20 years. It may vary depending on the roof material and roof type, as some materials have a longer lifespan and some roof types and materials don’t last as long. We will gladly help you choose the best roof material and type for your home.
It’s always best when replacing a roof to TEAR OFF the existing one rather than ROOF OVER the old one. Most of the time we recommend your old roof be completely removed, as we need to address the root of the problem before covering it up again. Unless the initial roof is a single, problem-free layer (which we check for), it’s best to avoid having more problems in the future by removing the old roof. We will inspect your roof for FREE to see whether your old roof is worth keeping on or not.
It’s hard to give an exact answer without looking at your roof, as the time it will take depends on the type of roof. With most residential properties, we are able to replace a roof anywhere from one day to a week. The best way to know is to get a FREE estimate on your roof.
We STRONGLY recommend you don’t do this, as the labor and logistics are sometimes overwhelming for the untrained and inexperienced. It’s also very unsafe to be up on your roof without proper equipment and training. We can give you estimates and options to choose from before replacing or repairing your roof.
What is the best car? As this is a subjective question, we wish we had a simple answer for this – what may be best for your neighbor’s roof might not be best for your roof. It depends on your roof’s pitch, shape and style. We can give you a better answer to what is the best roof for you after inspecting it for FREE.
