Roofing contractor in Manitou Springs, CO
Steep gables, tight streets and houses stacked up the hillside. Roofing in Manitou is as much about access as it is about shingles.
Manitou Springs sits at the foot of the mountains just west of Colorado Springs, and its older homes are a mix of Victorian cottages and hillside houses on narrow winding streets. The roofs are steep, often with several gables, turrets or dormers, and many have been patched over the years with whatever was handy.
How we approach a Manitou job
- Plan the access. Where the dumpster goes, where materials can be staged, and how neighbors keep their parking.
- Rig for steep pitch. Roof jacks, harnesses and toe boards go on before any tear-off.
- Detail work. Valleys, turret flashing and dormer cheeks get more time than a simple gable roof.
- Protect the garden. Many Manitou yards are terraced; tarps and plywood keep debris off them.
Permits
Manitou Springs is covered by the Pikes Peak Regional Building Department. A reroof needs a permit, which we pull. If your home is in an area with additional design review, tell us at the first call so we can allow time for it.
Common questions from Manitou Springs
My street is too narrow for a dumpster. Can you still do the job?
Usually. Smaller trailers and more frequent haul-offs work on tight Manitou streets.
Can you match the look of an older house?
We can suggest shingle styles and colours that suit a Victorian roofline, and metal or shake-look options where allowed.
