Your request goes to one independent roofer working in and around Colorado Springs, who contacts you directly. See our Referral Marketing Disclosure.
Tear-Off to Final Inspection
A full replacement strips the roof to the wood deck and builds it back up with new underlayment, flashing, vents, drip edge and shingles or metal. The Pikes Peak Regional Building Department (PPRBD) doesn't allow new asphalt shingles over old ones, so every existing layer comes off first.
Census QuickFacts puts the median value of an owner-occupied home in Colorado Springs at $452,600, and about 60.9% of homes here are lived in by their owners. With that much at stake, see the inspection notes and a written price before you commit. This site is not a roofing company: the roofer may pay us for the referral, and the contract is between you and the roofer.
Typical Reasons to Request Roof Replacement
- Worn-out shingles. Curled edges, cracks and bare patches show the surface is failing across the roof.
- Hail marks on most slopes. When every side took hits, fixing one area at a time rarely holds up.
- Leaks in more than one room. Several ceiling stains often point to tired underlayment or flashing.
- Old layers stacked up. Shingles laid over shingles all come off under PPRBD rules.
- Soft spots or a sagging line. A dip in the roof or daylight in the attic often means new decking is needed.
What Roof Replacement Typically Costs
These figures come from published cost models, not from bids on your street. Your price turns on roof size, pitch, material, the number of old layers and any decking that needs replacing.

From Inspection to Cleanup
- Request. Call (719) 555-0168 or use the form, and one independent local roofer contacts you.
- Inspection. The roofer checks shingles, flashing, vents, gutters and the attic.
- Written contract. Colorado law requires one, signed by both of you, before work begins.
- Permit. The roofer pulls it, and needs an active PPRBD contractor license to do so.
- Tear-off and install. Old layers come off, bad decking is swapped and the new roof goes on. Homes above 7,000 feet need an ice barrier at the eaves.
- Final inspection. PPRBD inspects the finished roof. Reroof inspections aren't same-day, so plan on a short wait.
What You Can Expect
Expect the job in plain words and in writing. Under state law, your money stays in trust with the roofer until the materials are on site or the bulk of the work is finished, and you can cancel within 72 hours of signing. Inside city limits, one- and two-family homes need a Class A roof covering, a fire rating that solid wood roofing doesn't meet.
Before you sign, check these yourself:
- An active PPRBD license. Search the roofer's name on pprbd.org.
- Insurance that covers re-roofing. Ask for the certificate and look for any re-roofing exclusion.
- A local address, references and warranty terms. Get the manufacturer's warranty details in writing.
What People Want to Know
Can new shingles go over my old roof in Colorado Springs?
No. PPRBD's reroof guidelines say every existing layer must come off a home before new asphalt shingles go on. That holds across PPRBD's whole area. The upside is that your roofer can see the deck and replace soft boards before the new roof covers them.
Does a full replacement need a permit?
Yes. Any roof job larger than 100 square feet needs a PPRBD permit, no matter who does the work. Your roofer pulls it, and PPRBD won't issue it until that roofer holds an active PPRBD license. We don't check licenses for you, so look the roofer up yourself.
Do I have to choose Class 4 shingles?
No. The city's rule is about fire rating (Class A), not hail. Class 4 impact-resistant shingles are an option that costs more per square foot. Many insurers offer a discount for Class 4 roofs; ask yours. Your roofer can price both so you can compare.
What does the referral cost me?
Nothing. Roofers may pay this site for referrals, and you never pay us or receive anything for asking. If you get a price and walk away, you owe us nothing. Any deal you make is directly with the roofer, in a written contract under Colorado's roofing-contract law.

Not every roof needs a full tear-off. After a storm, start with storm and hail damage. Choosing a material? Compare metal roof replacement with shingle roof replacement. For one leak, see roof repair or take the repair-or-replace quiz.
