Joel Johnson was my rep and helped me navigate the process. They helped me overcome some hurdles with my insurance company. The communication was great and installation was efficient despite the challenges of living in the mountains. Overall was a good experience and glad I went with Joel and Roof Technologies.

Built for Boulder — CU, the Flatirons, the WUI & the Code

Boulder is its own market. The county seat, home of CU Boulder, the Pearl Street Mall, and the Chautauqua historic area, tucked against the Flatirons and facing active wildfire risk after the Marshall Fire. Boulder also runs some of the country's most demanding building codes — Class A fire-rated assemblies in designated WUI zones, a solar-ready mandate on new construction, historic district review in Mapleton Hill and Whittier, and plan review timelines that outlast Denver's. We run every Boulder project to those standards on purpose.

  • Class A fire-rated assemblies (UL 790) for Boulder & Boulder County WUI zones
  • Class 4 impact-rated shingles — Malarkey Windsor, GAF Armor Shield II w/ algae block
  • Historic district ARC submittals for Chautauqua, Mapleton Hill & Whittier
  • Solar-ready new construction and re-roof detailing (Boulder Energy Code compliant)
  • Post-Marshall-Fire rebuild experience — Superior, Louisville, unincorporated Boulder County
  • Free estimates across Boulder, Gunbarrel, Louisville, Lafayette, Superior & the foothills

Our Core Values

How We Run Every Boulder Project

The principles behind every roof, solar install, and rebuild in Boulder — from WUI compliance worksheets and Landmarks submittals to the final city inspection.

  • 1

    Transparency

    Written quotes, documented scopes, WUI compliance packets, and historic district submittals you can read before we order material. No surprises, no upsells.

  • 2

    Technology-Driven Process

    Every Boulder job moves through our proprietary project system — the same platform that tracks Landmarks Board status, Boulder Building Services review, and inspection dates.

  • 3

    One Point of Accountability

    One project manager owns every phase — coordinating our in-house crews and vetted trade partners — so Chautauqua, Mapleton Hill, and NoBo homeowners always have one number to call, not a chain of handoffs.

  • 4

    Customer-First Finish

    Every Boulder project ends with a walkthrough, a magnetic nail sweep, and a full documentation packet — Class A assembly certificate, Class 4 certificate, and WUI worksheet for your insurer.

Why Boulder Homeowners Choose Us

Experience Across Boulder's Most Demanding Projects

The Marshall Fire in December 2021 reshaped how Boulder County thinks about roofing. Over 1,000 homes burned in Superior, Louisville, and unincorporated Boulder County in a single afternoon — the most destructive wildfire in Colorado history. We've spent the years since working inside those communities on post-fire rebuilds, pulling Class A assemblies through the updated WUI code, and handing finished homeowners a packet their insurance carriers will actually accept.

Boulder homes have always been different. We restore Mapleton Hill Victorian roofs with ARC-approved traditional profiles, install WUI-rated systems on Nederland-side foothill cabins, build solar-ready decks on NoBo modern-builds, specify Tesla Solar Roof for HOA-constrained neighborhoods where a standard array won't pass review, and run insurance documentation for carriers that are actively tightening on Front Range wildfire exposure. Same documented process — whatever the parcel demands.

Boulder Solar Panels & Tesla Solar Roof

Boulder has one of the country's most solar-friendly reputations — and one of its most demanding code stacks. The city was among the first in the US to amend a solar-ready requirement into its energy conservation code, and Boulder County homeowners routinely lead Xcel Energy's Solar*Rewards enrollment. Combined with high residential electricity demand, the net-metering economics here tend to be strong.

We install traditional solar arrays and the Tesla Solar Roof across every Boulder neighborhood — south-facing Mapleton Hill rooflines, Shanahan Ridge Prairie homes, NoBo moderns built to the solar-ready code, and HOA neighborhoods where the Tesla Solar Roof's integrated glass tile is often the cleanest path to board approval. We coordinate the Xcel Solar*Rewards interconnection and the City of Boulder solar permit from the same workflow.

FAQ

Common Questions From Boulder Homeowners

The Marshall Fire in December 2021 was the most destructive wildfire in Colorado history — over 1,000 homes lost across Superior, Louisville, and unincorporated Boulder County. In the aftermath, Boulder County and the City of Boulder tightened their wildland-urban interface (WUI) codes: designated WUI zones now require a Class A fire-rated roof assembly (UL 790 / ASTM E108), ignition-resistant eaves and vents, and non-combustible gutters where required. We pull the WUI map for your parcel before we quote, and specify a Class A assembly end-to-end — not just a Class A shingle on a non-rated deck.
For Boulder we typically specify Malarkey Windsor (polymer-modified, Class 4, algae-block), or GAF Timberline Armor Shield II with StainGuard Plus — both carry UL 2218 Class 4 ratings and meet the Class A fire assembly requirement when installed over the correct underlayment. Where the parcel falls inside a WUI zone, we layer on a synthetic Class A-rated underlayment and non-combustible drip edge. The combined system is what earns the Class 4 insurance discount and the Class A fire rating at the same time.
Boulder is one of the strictest jurisdictions on the Front Range. The City of Boulder Building Services runs a longer plan review than Jeffco or Denver — typically two to four weeks for a roof-over or re-roof with any structural element, versus a few days downtown. Boulder County's unincorporated permits add energy code compliance (IECC 2021 amendments), WUI compliance documentation, and in some parcels an HOA or historic district sign-off before the county will even accept the application. We handle the full packet — WUI worksheet, energy-code checklist, product data sheets — so the timeline is predictable.
Yes — Boulder was one of the first cities in the country to adopt a solar-ready building code (amended into its energy conservation code), which requires new residential construction to include a designated south-facing solar-ready zone: unshaded roof area, reinforced framing, conduit pathways, and reserved electrical panel capacity. We build to those specs on new construction and new-roof projects so the solar install later is a plug-in — not a retrofit. For existing homes, we structurally pre-check the roof when we replace it so solar can be added without a second tear-up.
Chautauqua, Mapleton Hill, and Whittier are Boulder-designated historic districts, and any exterior-visible roofing change there goes through the Landmarks Board's ARC review before the building permit issues. The ARC typically requires traditional profiles — no 3-tab strip shingles on a Victorian, no bright-white standing-seam on a Mapleton bungalow. Approved options are usually architectural asphalt in a period color, or historically accurate metal or clay where the original roof warrants it. We prepare the Landmarks submittal (product data, color sample, elevation drawings) and coordinate the review before we set a tear-off date.
State Farm, Liberty Mutual, USAA, Farmers, and Allstate all offer an impact-resistant discount in the Boulder area — typically 15-30% off the wind/hail portion of the premium when you install a UL 2218 Class 4 rated roof. We provide the Class 4 certificate and installation documentation with every completed project so you can submit it to your carrier. Over a Class 4 roof's service life the discount typically returns 3-5x the material upgrade cost.
Several national carriers have pulled back or added wildfire-zone underwriting restrictions along the Front Range since the Marshall Fire, and Boulder County parcels are among the most scrutinized. We work regularly with Travelers, Chubb, and specialized high-value carriers that still write in Boulder's WUI zones, and we document the full Class A fire assembly, defensible space compatibility, and ignition-resistant construction in a packet homeowners can hand directly to their underwriter. A documented Class A assembly is often the difference between a renewal and a non-renewal.
We serve the City of Boulder and all of Boulder County — Gunbarrel and the commercial flex corridor, Niwot, Louisville, Lafayette, Superior, the western portion of Erie, Longmont, Lyons, and the foothills communities including Nederland. Same documented process, same project manager — whether you're in a Mapleton Hill Victorian, a NoBo modern, a post-Marshall-Fire rebuild in Superior, or a Wonderland Lake mid-century.
