Roofing Contractor in Fort Collins, CO
Roofing Built for Colorado's Toughest Weather
Your roof takes on more abuse in Fort Collins than in most parts of the country — baking sun in July, hailstorms in the spring, and heavy snow load in the winter, sometimes within the same season. As a dedicated roofing contractor in Fort Collins, CO, HWG Exteriors installs and repairs roofing systems built to handle all of it, backed by manufacturer certifications and a crew that’s seen every kind of roof damage the Front Range can produce.
We install and repair three main roofing systems, and we’ll walk you through which one makes sense for your home before you spend a dollar.
Roofing Systems We Install
Asphalt Shingle Roofing
The most common roofing material in Fort Collins, and for good reason — asphalt shingles offer solid impact resistance against hail, a wide range of style and color options, and a price point that fits most budgets. We install architectural and impact-resistant shingle lines designed specifically for hail-prone climates like ours.
Metal Roofing
For homeowners who want a roof that outlasts multiple hail seasons, we install Corten weathering steel and standing-seam steel roofing systems. Metal roofing carries a higher upfront cost but typically lasts two to three times longer than asphalt, resists hail denting far better, and reflects heat rather than absorbing it — a real advantage during Colorado's intense summer sun.

Flat & TPO Roofing
Flat and low-slope roofs, common on additions, garages, and commercial buildings, need a different approach than a pitched roof. We install TPO membrane systems that resist ponding water, UV exposure, and temperature swings without the seams and weak points older flat-roof materials are prone to.
Our Approach
We think a good contractor relationship starts with a straightforward answer, not a sales pitch. When you call HWG Exteriors, we’ll walk your property, give you an honest assessment of what’s actually needed, and explain your options clearly — including when a repair makes more sense than a full replacement. We don’t believe in upselling projects homeowners don’t need, and we’d rather earn a long-term relationship with your recommendation to a neighbor than push a bigger job for a bigger invoice.
Roof Warranties
Warranty coverage depends on the roofing system and manufacturer, and we’ll explain exactly what’s covered before installation begins — not buried in fine print afterward. Because our installers carry manufacturer certifications, the workmanship on your roof is backed by the same standards required to keep those warranties valid.
Navigating a Roof Insurance Claim
If your roof has hail or wind damage, insurance can often cover some or all of the cost of a replacement. We’re familiar with how Colorado insurance adjusters evaluate roof damage, and we can provide documentation and photos to support your claim. If you’re not sure whether your roof qualifies, our storm damage team can do a free inspection and let you know where you stand.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a roof replacement typically take?
Most asphalt shingle roof replacements take one to three days once materials arrive on site. Metal and flat roofing projects can take a bit longer depending on the size and complexity of the roof.
How often should my roof be inspected?
We recommend an inspection once a year, and always after a significant hail or wind storm — damage isn’t always visible from the ground.
Can a new roof be installed over my existing one?
In some cases, yes, but it depends on the condition of your current roof and local building code requirements. We’ll assess your roof during a free inspection and let you know if a layover is a safe option or if a full tear-off is the better long-term choice.
How long should a roof last?
Asphalt shingle roofs typically last 20 to 30 years, while metal roofing can last 40 to 70 years with proper installation and maintenance.
Do you offer roofing warranties?
Yes. Warranty terms vary by roofing system and manufacturer, and we’ll go over your specific coverage before any work begins.
Will you work with my insurance company on a roof claim?
Yes. We provide documentation, photos, and reports to support your claim and can walk you through what to expect from your adjuster.
