Kings Roofing & Contracting replaces roofs on homes across Boise and the Treasure Valley, from tear-off down to the decking to the final nail sweep. Most of the roofs we replace are residential asphalt shingle roofs, and we install metal roofing too. Every job starts with a free inspection and a written, itemized estimate.
Curling shingles, leaks that come back after every storm, or a roof past its rated life all point the same way: more patching stops making sense. Kings Roofing & Contracting LLC is veteran-owned and GAF-certified, and our crews install systems built for local snow loads, wind and the freeze-thaw winters of southwestern Idaho.
Our office is at 9201 W State St Ste 127, Boise, ID 83714 (get directions). We answer the phone 24 hours a day at (208) 803-8341. Call to book a free roof inspection and replacement estimate, or request a free roof quote online.
Boise roofs take spring and fall wind, hail, and winters that freeze and thaw again and again. They also have to carry real weight. The City of Boise sets a minimum roof snow load of 25 pounds per square foot, so tired decking or failing flashing shows up fast once snow sits on it.
Where you live in Boise changes what we find. Older homes in the North End often have aging decking, and some still carry a second layer of shingles that has to come off before a new roof goes on. Homes along the foothills, in neighborhoods like Boise Heights, Central Foothills and Warm Springs Mesa, sit higher and more exposed to wind, so we pay extra attention to nailing and edge metal there.
The National Weather Service Boise office tracks hail across the Treasure Valley, and the June 26 and July 23, 2026 hailstorms hit the valley hard. Damage at that scale often leads to a full replacement claim. That is why we also handle hail damage roof repair, wind damage roof repair and storm damage repair in Boise, and our insurance claims assistance team works with your adjuster.
A re-roof in Boise needs a building permit from the City of Boise. We pull it for you before work starts.
Local weather and building rules shape which roofing systems hold up best in the Treasure Valley. Here is what every Boise roof replacement has to account for.
Climate Factor | Boise and Treasure Valley Standard | Impact on Roof Replacement |
Minimum roof snow load | 25 psf (City of Boise code) | Decking and rafters must support sustained snow weight |
Freeze-thaw winters | Repeated freezing and thawing | Ice and water shield at eaves and valleys, flexible underlayment |
Wind exposure | Spring and fall wind events, higher on the foothills | Nailing pattern, starter strips and edge metal |
Documented hail near Boise | Up to 1.5 inches | Class 4 impact-resistant shingles often justified |
Re-roof permit | Required by the City of Boise | We pull it before work starts |
Common signs your Boise home needs roof replacement include:
Wind remains the most common driver of roof damage in the Boise area, and one hailstorm can bruise every slope at once. If the damage is limited to one spot, a roof repair in Boise may be all you need. When it is widespread, replacing the roof usually beats a string of repairs that never fully solve the problem.
Kings Roofing & Contracting LLC follows a clear, step-by-step process designed to keep your project on schedule and on budget.
We start with a thorough on-site inspection. Our crew checks shingle condition, decking integrity, flashing, ventilation, gutters, and attic moisture levels. You receive a written report with photos and a clear recommendation: targeted repair or full replacement.
Once we confirm replacement is the right call, we provide a written estimate that breaks down materials, labor, tear-off, disposal, and any decking or structural work needed. We help you choose the right roofing system for your home, your budget, and your aesthetic goals.
We pull all required permits through the City of Boise or your local jurisdiction. Then we schedule the project around your availability and the weather window that gives the best result.
On install day, our crew protects your landscaping, removes the existing roof system down to the decking, and inspects every square foot for hidden damage. We replace any rotted or compromised plywood, install fresh underlayment and ice/water shield where needed, and apply your chosen roofing material per manufacturer specifications.
Every nail gets picked up. Every piece of debris gets hauled away. We walk the property with you, review the warranty paperwork, and answer any final questions before we leave.
Boise homes need different roofing systems for different goals. Most of the Boise roofs we replace get architectural asphalt shingles, and many homeowners in hail-prone spots choose Class 4 impact-resistant shingles. We install metal roofing as well. The comparison below shows how the main options stack up.
Each roofing material carries a different cost, lifespan, and performance profile. The comparison below helps you weigh the tradeoffs before choosing the right system for your home or commercial building.
Roofing System | Expected Lifespan | Wind Rating | Snow Performance | Best For |
3-tab asphalt shingles | 15 to 20 years | Up to 60 mph | Moderate | Budget-conscious replacements |
Architectural asphalt shingles | 25 to 30 years | Up to 130 mph | Strong | Most Boise residential homes |
Class 4 impact-resistant shingles | 30 to 50 years | Up to 130 mph | Strong | Hail-prone properties, insurance discounts |
Standing seam metal | 50+ years | Up to 140 mph | Excellent (sheds snow) | Steep pitches, mountain-style homes |
Stone-coated steel | 50+ years | Up to 120 mph | Excellent | Energy efficiency, curb appeal |
TPO membrane (flat roof) | 20 to 30 years | Up to 150 mph | Requires drainage planning | Commercial and low-slope buildings |
Slate and concrete tile | 75 to 100+ years | Up to 110 mph | Excellent | Premium homes, historic properties |
Asphalt shingle roofing remains the most popular choice for residential roof replacement in Boise. They balance cost, durability, and curb appeal, and modern architectural shingles carry warranties of 30 to 50 years. We install premium product lines from leading manufacturers, including impact-resistant Class 4 options that hold up to hail and qualify for insurance discounts on many policies.
Architectural and luxury shingle profiles add depth, dimension, and resale value to your home. They also handle Boise’s wind speeds when installed correctly with proper nailing patterns and starter strips.
Metal roofing systems, including standing seam panels and stone-coated steel, deliver 50 or more years of service life. Metal sheds snow effectively, resists wind uplift, and reflects solar heat in summer. The higher upfront cost pays back through reduced maintenance, energy savings, and longer replacement cycles.
Metal roofing fits well on Boise homes with steep pitches, mountain-style architecture, or modern designs. It also performs on commercial roofing projects with low-slope profiles when paired with the right panel system.
Commercial buildings, additions, and contemporary residential designs often need flat roof systems. We install TPO, EPDM, and modified bitumen membranes for properties across the Boise market. Each system is matched to building use, budget, and exposure conditions.
For homeowners seeking premium aesthetics and lifetime durability, slate roofing and concrete tile offer century-long service when installed correctly. Synthetic composites that mimic slate or wood shake provide a lighter, more affordable alternative that resists the moisture, UV exposure, and temperature swings that wear down natural materials in Idaho.
Roof replacement cost varies based on roof size, pitch, material choice, decking condition, and the complexity of features like skylights, chimneys, and dormers. A straightforward asphalt shingle replacement on a single-story Boise ranch falls in a different price range than a steep two-story metal install.

The national average roof replacement cost is roughly $9,526, with most projects falling between $5,800 and $13,200 according to HomeAdvisor and Angi cost data. Your Boise project will land inside or above that range based on roof size, pitch, material choice, and how much decking needs to be replaced under the old shingles. We give every customer a written, itemized quote so the number you see is the number you pay, with no surprise add-ons mid-project.
In the Treasure Valley climate, asphalt shingle roofs typically last 20 to 30 years, metal roofs last 50 or more years, and slate or concrete tile can exceed 75 years. Local factors that shorten roof life include south-facing slopes that absorb extra UV exposure, poor attic ventilation that traps heat, and freeze-thaw cycling that works moisture into small cracks each winter. Roofs in higher-elevation Treasure Valley neighborhoods often face the steepest snow loads and may benefit from upgraded underlayment.
A common rule of thumb is that if repair costs reach 50 percent or more of full replacement cost, replacement is the smarter financial decision. Replacement also makes more sense when an asphalt shingle roof is past 20 years old, when leaks return in multiple locations after previous repairs, or when widespread hail or wind damage compromises shingles across several slopes. Our free inspection includes a written recommendation for repair or replacement, so you do not have to guess.
Idaho homeowners insurance policies generally cover roof replacement when damage results from a covered peril, such as hail, wind, fallen trees, or fire. They do not cover roofs that have simply aged out or worn down from neglect. Whether you receive a payout based on actual cash value (depreciated) or replacement cost value depends on your specific policy. The Idaho Department of Insurance recommends documenting damage with dated photos and getting an independent contractor estimate before signing anything with an adjuster.
Layover installs (placing new shingles over old ones) are technically allowed in some cases under the International Residential Code, but we strongly recommend full tear-off for Boise replacements. Tear-off lets us inspect and replace damaged decking, install fresh underlayment and ice/water shield, and verify the new roof carries its full manufacturer warranty. Layovers also add weight that can challenge older rafters under Boise’s 25 psf snow load requirement, and they often void warranties on the new shingles.
Late spring through early fall is the prime window for roof replacement in Boise and Treasure Valley, with September and October offering the most stable weather. Cool mornings and warm afternoons let asphalt shingles seal properly, and the dry pattern through summer minimizes weather delays. Winter installs are possible but require careful temperature management for shingle adhesives, which is why we recommend booking storm-damage replacements as soon as possible after the event rather than waiting through a Boise winter.
Idaho does not issue a state-level roofing license, but every contractor performing work valued at $2,000 or more must be registered with the Idaho Division of Occupational and Professional Licenses under the Idaho Contractor Registration Act. Registered contractors must also carry general liability insurance and workers compensation coverage. Always verify a contractor’s registration number, insurance certificates, and local references before signing any agreement, especially after storms when out-of-state crews often appear in the Treasure Valley.
Most single-family roof replacements in Boise and Treasure Valley take one to two full days for tear-off and installation once materials are on-site. The full project window from inspection to final cleanup usually runs two to three weeks, including time for material selection, permit processing through the City of Boise or your local jurisdiction, and scheduling around weather. Larger commercial projects, complex roof shapes, and full decking replacement can extend the timeline.
You do not need to be home for the install itself, though we recommend being available by phone in case our crew finds unexpected decking damage that requires your approval before proceeding. Pets should stay indoors during work hours because of noise and falling debris. We recommend moving vehicles out of the driveway and covering attic-stored items, since vibration from tear-off can shake loose dust through the ceiling.
For most Boise homes, architectural asphalt shingles with a Class 4 impact rating offer the strongest balance of wind resistance, hail durability, and cost. Standing seam metal performs even better against snow and wind but costs roughly twice as much upfront. Both options exceed the City of Boise’s 90 mph wind speed and 25 psf snow load requirements when installed to manufacturer specifications. The right choice depends on roof pitch, budget, and how long you plan to stay in the home.
