Roof Replacement / New Roof
A proper roof replacement in Salt Lake City starts with a full tear-off of your existing system down to the decking, giving us the opportunity to inspect for any rotted sheathing, moisture intrusion, or structural wear before anything new goes on — problems that a re-cover job would simply bury. We install code-compliant underlayment selected for Utah's climate conditions, ensure ventilation meets current IRC standards, and fasten all materials to local wind and snow-load specifications. Every replacement we complete includes a written workmanship warranty alongside the manufacturer's material warranty, so you have documented coverage on both labor and product from day one.
Learn More →New Roof
There's a specific kind of relief that comes with knowing your roof is genuinely done — not patched, not re-layered, but new from the decking up, with decades of service life ahead of it. Salt Lake City homeowners who've been through a full roof replacement often describe it the same way: the house feels tighter, the upstairs rooms are more comfortable in July, and it's simply one less thing to think about. Whether you're choosing a high-efficiency shingle system or stepping up to a standing-seam metal roof built for Utah's UV and snow conditions, you end up with a finished result that looks right, performs well, and holds its value for the long run.

What's Bringing You to a Roofing Project?
Reducing Energy Costs
If your energy bills seem higher than they should be and your roof is more than 15 years old, your roofing system is a likely contributor — aged shingles lose reflectivity and granule coverage, letting more heat into your attic. A roof replacement with modern, energy-rated materials is one of the more direct ways to address that at the source.
Aging Roof
Most asphalt shingle roofs in Salt Lake City last 15–25 years depending on material quality and sun exposure — and at 4,000-plus feet of elevation, UV wear happens faster here than in lower-altitude markets. If your roof is approaching or past that window, getting an honest assessment now is better than waiting for visible interior problems to force the decision.
Recently Purchased a Home
Buying a home often means inheriting a roof of unknown remaining life. If the inspection flagged concerns or the age is unclear, a professional roof assessment gives you a real picture of what you're working with — and a planned replacement on your own timeline, rather than an emergency one.
Curb Appeal and Resale Value
A worn or visibly aging roof is one of the first things buyers and appraisers notice in Salt Lake City's competitive housing market. A full replacement with a clean, modern profile and documented warranty gives you a straightforward talking point at listing time and removes a likely negotiation point for buyers.
Something Else on Your Mind
Maybe it's a persistent leak in one area, a section of missing shingles, or you just want a second opinion on work a previous contractor recommended. Whatever brought you here, we're happy to take a look and tell you honestly what we see — replacement, repair, or nothing yet.

Utah Roofing Permits — Summary
| 01 | Salt Lake City requires a building permit for all roof replacements and most major repairs affecting structure, decking, or a significant portion of the roof covering — this is confirmed by city building services |
| 02 | All permit applications must be submitted electronically through Salt Lake City's Citizen Access Portal (Accela); in-person assistance is available at 451 S State St, Monday–Friday 8am–5pm |
| 03 | Projects must meet the Utah State Construction Code, including local snow-load and wind requirements — permits exist specifically to ensure compliance with these structural standards |
| 04 | Utah follows the International Energy Conservation Code, which sets minimum standards for attic insulation and roof ventilation — a full replacement is an opportunity to bring your assembly into current compliance |
| 05 | Homes in a Salt Lake City historic district require contact with SLC Planning before a building permit application is filed — confirm your property's status early; requirements can vary and change, so verifying specifics with the city building department before your project starts is always the right move |
Permit requirements vary by project and change over time — confirm the specifics before you plan around them.

How much can a roof replacement actually affect my home's energy bills in Salt Lake City?
The impact is real but depends on what you're replacing and what you're upgrading to. Salt Lake City's elevation means UV intensity is meaningfully higher than at sea level, which drives significant attic heat gain through older, dark, granule-worn shingles. Choosing a roof replacement with reflective or Energy Star–rated shingles — or stepping up to a metal roof — reduces how much radiant heat transfers into your attic. Combined with proper ventilation addressed at replacement time, many homeowners see a genuine reduction in summer cooling load, though actual savings vary by home size, insulation, and HVAC setup.
Is a roof replacement a good time to address my attic ventilation and insulation in Salt Lake City?
It's genuinely the best time. Once the old roof is torn off and the decking is exposed, adding ridge venting, improving soffit ventilation, or addressing insulation gaps is far less disruptive and expensive than doing it as a standalone project. Utah's energy code sets a minimum R-38 for ceiling and roof assemblies — if your attic insulation is older or was never brought up to current standards, a full replacement gives you a natural window to fix it in one coordinated project.
Are metal roofs worth the extra cost for a Salt Lake City home, from an energy standpoint?
For many Salt Lake City homeowners, the math is favorable over a long horizon. Metal roofing offers high solar reflectance, sheds snow efficiently in winter, and carries lifespans that can exceed 40–50 years — compared to 15–25 years for standard asphalt shingles in Utah's UV-intense climate. The upfront cost is roughly double that of asphalt, but the combination of reduced replacement frequency, lower attic heat gain in summer, and minimal maintenance makes it a strong choice for homeowners who plan to stay in their home long-term. It's not the right fit for every budget, and we'll give you an honest comparison.
