Roofing in Utah

Utah sits in the mountain west, where the cold snowy winters, the freeze-thaw cycles, and the high altitude UV test every roof. The Wasatch Front cities face the mountain snow and the ice dams, and the southern cities face the desert heat. Roofing in Utah means building roofs for the snow, the ice, and the mountains — and we do it in 36 cities across the state.

The Roofing Regions of Utah

The state splits into two main roofing climates, and the roofs need to match each one.

The Wasatch Front — Salt Lake City, Provo, Ogden, and the surrounding cities — faces the mountain snow, the ice dams, and the freeze-thaw cycles. The ice-and-water shield at the eaves is essential.

The southern cities — St. George, Washington, Hurricane, and Cedar City — face the desert heat, the sun, and the occasional snow.

Utah Roofing Considerations

The winter is the dominant force along the Wasatch Front. The mountain snow piles on the roofs and the attic heat melts it unevenly. The ice dams form at the cold eaves and the water backs up under the shingles.

The freeze-thaw cycles stress the flashing and the seals. The temperature swings through the winter open the gaps that the spring rain finds.

The high altitude UV bakes the shingles on the south-facing slopes. The light-colored shingles reflect the heat and slow the aging.

Roofing in Utah’s Top Cities

• The Wasatch Front — Salt Lake City, Sandy, West Jordan, Provo, Orem, Ogden, Layton, and the surrounding cities face the mountain snow and the ice dams.
• Southern Utah — St. George, Washington, Hurricane, Cedar City, and the southern cities face the desert heat and the sun.

From the Wasatch Front to the south, Utah roofs face the mountain snow, the ice dams, and the freeze-thaw cycles. The impact-rated shingles, the ice-and-water shield, and the right installation make the difference between the 15-year roof and the 30-year roof.
