Northgate covers the far north end of Colorado Springs around the Northgate Boulevard interchange on I-25, next to the Air Force Academy. It is one of the newest parts of the city, and many homes here are still on original builder roofs.
At close to 7,000 feet and near the Palmer Divide, Northgate gets more snow and stronger wind than central Colorado Springs. Storms that form over the Rampart Range often hit this area first.
Northgate sees more snow than most of the city. Proper ice and water barrier at the eaves and balanced attic ventilation are what keep ice dams from pushing water under the shingles.
Gusty west and north winds lift shingles and ridge caps. A wind-rated installation with the correct nailing pattern makes a big difference here.
A new-construction roof is not automatically hail resistant. Most builders install standard shingles that can be damaged in a single storm.
Repair or Replace?
Newer Northgate roofs with a few blown-off shingles are usually a simple repair. Hail damage across several slopes is typically a replacement through insurance, even on a young roof. Storm damage is not covered by a builder warranty, so file with your homeowners insurance instead.

No. Builder warranties cover workmanship defects, not storm damage. Hail and wind damage go through your homeowners insurance. We can inspect for free and tell you which one applies.
Ice dams form when heat escapes into the attic and melts snow that refreezes at the colder eaves. The fix is a combination of ice barrier, ventilation, and insulation. We check all three during an inspection.
