Fort Collins Roof Pros provides professional asphalt shingle roofing in Fort Collins, CO for residential and commercial properties across Northern Colorado. Asphalt covers most of the housing stock in this city, and the only asphalt question that really matters here is whether you buy a polymer-modified shingle or a standard one. That single choice moves both the up-front price and the annual premium.
A Class 4 asphalt shingle earns its rating through chemistry, not thickness. SBS rubber is blended into the asphalt so the mat flexes under a strike instead of fracturing, which is what lets it pass the two-inch steel ball dropped twice from twenty feet. The same modification keeps the shingle pliable at the low temperatures this valley sees in January, so it holds its seal instead of going glassy.
Standard architectural shingles are not a mistake. They are a heavier, better-looking laminated product than the three-tab they replaced, they carry the same wind classes when nailed correctly, and on a house you will not own in a decade they are frequently the smarter buy. What they will not do is survive one-and-a-half-inch stones without bruising, and they will not earn a mitigation reduction on your policy.
Installation matters more than either choice. Nails in the reinforced strip and not above it, six fasteners per shingle on exposed elevations, starter at eaves and rakes, synthetic underlayment rather than felt that wrinkles when it gets wet, and a proper ice-and-water course where the manufacturer requires one. We do not stagger courses to a pattern that saves bundles, and ridge cap comes off the same product line as the field rather than a cut-up three-tab.
Our standing recommendation for a house you intend to keep: SBS-modified Class 4 in a mid-tone color, six-nail pattern, impact-rated ridge vent, and the certification packet filed with your carrier the week we finish. For a flip or a short hold, standard architectural and put the difference in the bank. Color matters more than people expect at this elevation, because ultraviolet load ages a light shingle and a dark one differently.
We install and repair asphalt shingle roofs throughout Fort Collins and out to Timnath, Windsor, Wellington, Laporte, Loveland, Berthoud and Greeley. Every proposal names the product, the impact class, the wind class and the nail count, so you can compare bids on something other than the bottom line. A bid that says architectural shingles and nothing else is not comparable to anything.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — UL 2218 Class 4 impact-rated shingles, SBS polymer-modified asphalt, FM 4473 Class 4 rated low-slope assemblies, ASTM D7158 Class H wind-rated shingles, 24-gauge standing seam steel with concealed clips, stone-coated steel with a granulated surface — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Fort Collins and nearby communities including Loveland, Greeley, Windsor, Evans.

Materials, equipment and how we do asphalt shingle roofing
The difference between asphalt shingle roofing that lasts and asphalt shingle roofing that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with UL 2218 Class 4 impact-rated shingles, SBS polymer-modified asphalt, FM 4473 Class 4 rated low-slope assemblies, ASTM D7158 Class H wind-rated shingles, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Fort Collins job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in Northern Colorado means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Fort Collins Chooses Fort Collins Roof Pros
- ✓We put the Class 4 payback in writing — upgrade cost divided by your carrier's annual premium reduction, in years, before you sign anything.
- ✓Impact-rated accessories are in the base price. Ridge vent, pipe flashings and gutter gauge are the unrated parts that dent, so they get specified with the shingle.
- ✓Tear-off to bare deck as standard. Nobody can inspect sheathing through a second layer, and a roof-over hides the decking problem you will pay for later.
- ✓Manufacturer high-wind nail patterns rather than the four-nail minimum, written into the contract so the wind class on the wrapper means something.
