Family-owned · Licensed & insured · 4.9★ from 300+ Front Range reviews · Serving since 2008

Boulder homes take a beating that flatland houses never see. Tucked right against the foothills at 5,328 feet, the city catches downslope Chinook winds that rip down off the Flatirons, intense high-altitude UV that bakes south-facing roofs, and the same Front Range hail that rolls in every spring and summer. CR Custom Exteriors has worked these conditions since 2008, and we know a Boulder roof has to handle wind uplift and sun fade, not just the occasional storm.

Boulder's housing stock runs from century-old Victorians in Mapleton Hill and the brick bungalows of Whittier and Newlands to the 1960s ranches that fill Table Mesa and Martin Acres, plus newer builds out in Gunbarrel and North Boulder. That spread matters for exterior work: older homes near the mountains often have aging wood siding and original single-pane windows that struggle against winter Chinook gusts, while the post-war neighborhoods are hitting the age where roofs and gutters need replacement all at once. Add Boulder's foothill position, which funnels both hail and the strongest west winds in the county, and the punishing UV that comes with elevation, and exteriors here wear out faster than most of the Front Range. Homes along the wildland edge in South Boulder and toward Eldorado Springs also carry real wildfire exposure, making fire-rated roofing and tight, well-sealed siding more than a cosmetic choice.

Built for foothill wind and hail

Boulder sits where Chinook winds barrel off the Flatirons and hail rolls in off the mountains. We install roofing and siding rated for the wind uplift and impact this stretch of the foothills actually sees, not generic flatland spec.

We know Boulder's older housing stock

From Victorian-era homes in Mapleton Hill and Whittier to 1960s Table Mesa ranches, Boulder's mix of historic and post-war houses needs different siding, window, and roofing approaches. We match the work to the home's age and original materials.

Wildfire-edge ready in South Boulder

Homes along the wildland-urban interface toward Eldorado Springs and South Boulder face genuine fire risk. We install Class A fire-rated roofing and properly sealed siding so your exterior is one less vulnerability.
