Colorado Springs Hail Damage and Severe Weather

Colorado Springs’ location along the Front Range and at the base of the Rocky Mountains places local homes in an area regularly exposed to severe thunderstorms, large hail, strong winds, snow, intense sunlight, and rapidly changing weather conditions.

One of the region’s most significant recent hail events occurred on June 13, 2018, when a severe thunderstorm produced hail reaching 3 inches in diameter across the southern Colorado Springs metropolitan area and Fountain. The National Weather Service estimated approximately $169 million in damage from the event. (National Weather Service)

The National Weather Service documented hail across numerous portions of the Colorado Springs area during that storm, including 1-inch hail northeast, south-southwest, and south-southeast of Colorado Springs, demonstrating how hail size can vary significantly across the region during the same storm system. (National Weather Service)

For Colorado Springs homeowners, knowing that severe weather occurred nearby does not automatically mean a roof was damaged. Storm path, hail size, wind direction, roofing material, roof age, previous wear, elevation, and the condition of the individual property all matter. Roof There It Is evaluates the actual roofing system before recommending a roof repair or roof replacement.

Hail Damage Can Vary Across Colorado Springs Neighborhoods

Colorado Springs covers a large geographic area with substantial differences in elevation, terrain, development, and proximity to the foothills. Severe thunderstorms can produce very different hail and wind conditions across different portions of the city.

The June 13, 2018 hailstorm demonstrated this localized pattern. The National Weather Service documented hail reports ranging from approximately 1 inch within portions of Colorado Springs to 3 inches across the southern Colorado Springs metropolitan area. (National Weather Service)

Homes in Briargate, Broadmoor, Rockrimmon, Mountain Shadows, Old Colorado City, Flying Horse, Northgate, Stetson Hills, Wolf Ranch, Cordera, Banning Lewis Ranch, Patty Jewett, Pine Creek, Black Forest-area communities, and other Colorado Springs neighborhoods can experience different storm conditions depending on the path and intensity of an individual thunderstorm.

Damage to gutters, downspouts, vents, siding, window screens, and other exterior surfaces can provide clues that a roof may also have been affected. If your Colorado Springs home has experienced severe weather, learning the signs of roof hail damage can help you determine whether a professional hail damage roof inspection makes sense.

Colorado Springs Roof Permits and Local Roofing Requirements

Building permits and roofing requirements in Colorado Springs are administered through the Pikes Peak Regional Building Department.

Effective June 30, 2026, the current regional code is the 2023 Pikes Peak Regional Building Code, 2nd Printing. It adopts the 2021 International Residential Code and 2021 International Building Code, along with other referenced codes and regional amendments. (PPRBD)

Class A Roofing Is Required

Residential buildings in Colorado Springs are required to have a Class A roof covering, excluding solid-wood roofing products.

The requirement applies to new residential construction and complete roof replacement under the current regional code. Colorado Springs’ longstanding fire-safe roofing ordinance also applies Class A requirements to residential reroofing and qualifying repairs. (PPRBD)

Class A refers to fire resistance and is different from Class 4 impact resistance.

Class A roof coverings are tested for fire performance under standards such as ASTM E108 or UL 790. (PPRBD)

Roof Repairs Greater Than 25% Require Class A Materials

Colorado Springs’ Fire Safe Roofing Ordinance requires Class A roofing materials for residential roof repairs involving more than 25% of the total roof area, as well as new construction and reroofing. (Colorado Springs Wildland Urban Interface Roofing Requirements)

Roofing Permits and Inspections

Residential reroofing projects are permitted and inspected through the Pikes Peak Regional Building Department.

For an asphalt-shingle reroof, PPRBD identifies a Building Roofing Final inspection as the required building inspection. Tile reroofing requires a Building Tile Roof inspection followed by the Building Roofing Final inspection. (PPRBD)

Roof Decking and Sheathing

Roof decking must provide an appropriate substrate for the roofing system being installed. Damaged or unsuitable sheathing must be addressed in accordance with the adopted residential code, regional requirements, and roofing manufacturer specifications.

PPRBD maintains a specific interpretation addressing roof sheathing under IRC R905.2.1 and IBC 1507.2.1, along with reroofing guidance for projects governed by the 2021 International Codes. (PPRBD)

Roof Snow Loads

Roof snow loads in the Colorado Springs region can vary with property location and elevation. PPRBD permit records identify project-specific roof-truss snow loads, making the applicable design requirement dependent on the individual property rather than a single universal number for every home in the region. (Pikes Peak Regional Building Department)

Wildfire Roofing Requirements

Wildfire exposure is an important roofing consideration in portions of Colorado Springs, particularly neighborhoods closer to the foothills and designated wildfire-risk areas.

Colorado Springs requires Class A roof coverings for residential occupancies, and the City’s wildfire mitigation guidance identifies Class A roofing as an ignition-resistant construction feature intended to reduce the likelihood of a home igniting during a wildfire. (Colorado Springs Wildland Urban Interface Roofing Requirements)

Class 4 Impact-Resistant Shingles

Colorado Springs’ Class A roofing requirement is a fire-resistance requirement and should not be confused with UL 2218 Class 4 impact resistance.

Colorado Springs does not establish a blanket requirement that every residential reroof use UL 2218 Class 4 asphalt shingles. Class 4 shingles can provide additional impact resistance for homes exposed to Colorado hail.

Colorado Springs homeowners considering a roof replacement can learn more about Class 4 impact-resistant shingles in Colorado.

Homeowners and contractors can review current requirements through the Pikes Peak Regional Building Department and its current code information.

Roof Repair or Roof Replacement in Colorado Springs?

Colorado Springs homeowners deal with hail, high winds, snow, intense sun, and major temperature swings that can all affect a roofing system over time. A damaged or aging roof does not automatically mean you need a full replacement. The right solution depends on the age and condition of your roof, the extent of the damage, previous repairs, and whether a repair can provide a reliable long-term solution.

At Roof There It Is, we believe in recommending the solution that makes sense for your home — repair when repair makes sense, replace when replacement is necessary, and explain why either way. If replacement is the right choice, we’ll clearly explain your options and provide an upfront estimate before any work begins.
