Asphalt Shingle Roofing: The Idaho Standard

New Asphalt Shingle Roof

For most homeowners in Boise, Meridian, and Nampa, asphalt shingles remain the top choice for their balance of affordability, durability, and aesthetic appeal. Modern architectural shingles provide depth and texture that mimics slate or wood shake, enhancing your home's curb appeal while providing robust protection against our distinct four seasons.

Available Styles & Colors

We work with top manufacturers like GAF, Owens Corning, and Malarkey to bring you a wide range of colors and styles. Whether you want a classic "Weathered Wood" look or a bold "Charcoal Black," we can match your vision. Our installation process includes:

  • Complete Tear-Off: We remove all old layers to inspect the decking.
  • Rot Repair: We replace any damaged plywood to ensure a solid foundation.
  • Ice & Water Shield: Critical for Idaho winters to prevent ice dams.
  • Proper Ventilation: Extending roof life by regulating attic temperature.

Metal Roofing: Durability for Generations

For homeowners looking for a "forever roof," metal roofing is the premier choice. It sheds snow easily, resists fire, and can last 50+ years with minimal maintenance. While the upfront investment is higher, the long-term value and energy efficiency often make it the smarter financial decision.

We specialize in Standing Seam Metal Roofing, which features concealed fasteners for a sleek, modern look and superior watertight performance. This style is perfect for the modern farmhouses seen popping up across Kuna and Star.

Warning Signs: Do You Need a Roof Replacement?

Granule Loss

Finding "sand" in your gutters? This means your shingles are losing their protective coating and aging rapidly.

Curling or Buckling

Shingles that are curling at the edges or buckling in the middle are susceptible to wind damage.

Dark Streaks

Algae growth (often Gloeocapsa magma) can eat away at the limestone filler in shingles over time.

Interior Stains

Brown spots on your ceiling usually indicate a leak that has soaked through the insulation.
