Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the questions Colorado homeowners ask us most — from inspections and storm damage to timelines, warranties, and cost.
Yes — all of our roof inspections are free, with no obligation. We’ll get on your roof, take photos, and give you a written assessment whether you choose to hire us or not. Call (720) 235-8159 to schedule one.
Yes. Watchdog Roofing and Restoration is fully licensed and insured, including general liability and workers’ compensation. We’re happy to provide proof on request — and we’d recommend asking that of any contractor you’re considering.
Storm and hail damage is what we do best. We inspect the roof, document all the damage thoroughly with photos, and prepare a clear, itemized repair estimate. Once you’ve hired us, we can meet your insurer’s adjuster on-site to review the documented damage and the scope of repairs. We document the damage — your insurance carrier decides coverage.
We serve the entire Denver metro and Front Range from our Brighton office, including Thornton, Commerce City, Henderson, Westminster, Northglenn, Broomfield, Arvada, Aurora, Castle Rock, and Denver. Call us if you’re unsure whether we cover your area.
Most residential roof replacements are completed in 1–2 days, weather permitting. Larger or more complex roofs may take 3–4 days. We’ll give you a specific timeline as part of your written estimate.
Most residential roof replacements in the Denver metro fall between $8,000 and $25,000, depending on size, pitch, materials, and any decking repair needed. If storm damage is covered by your policy, your out-of-pocket cost is often limited to your deductible — though coverage is your insurer’s decision. We provide a detailed written estimate before any work begins.
A lot of hail damage isn’t visible from the ground. Common signs include granules collecting in your gutters, dents on metal vents or flashing, bruised or dimpled shingles, and water stains appearing inside weeks later. If you’ve had a hailstorm in the last 12 months, a free inspection is worth your time.
Yes — we respond quickly to active leaks and storm damage. If we can’t schedule a full repair immediately, we can often tarp the damaged area to prevent further water intrusion. Call (720) 235-8159 for emergency work.
Our installations come with the manufacturer’s warranty on the materials (typically 25–50 years depending on the product), plus our own workmanship warranty. We’ll walk through the specifics during your estimate.
Local roofers have a reputation to protect in the community. If something comes up two years from now, we’re a few minutes away — not in another state. After storms, out-of-state crews often sign homeowners, collect the insurance check, and disappear. Being local means being accountable.
