What Happens When You Choose the Wrong Roofer?
After a storm, your roof is one of the most expensive and important systems on your home, and the decision about who repairs it carries real consequences. The wrong choice does not just cost money. It costs you the protection your home depends on, often discovered long after the contractor is gone.
An unreliable contractor who disappears after the job
The most damaging roofing decisions in El Paso County happen in the rush after a hail event, when out-of-area contractors flood the market, push for a fast signature, and move on to the next storm town. When a problem shows up the following winter, the phone number is disconnected and the warranty they promised means nothing. You are left with a roof you cannot trust and no one to hold accountable.What looks like minor hail damage from the ground can hide deeper structural issues. Left unaddressed — or patched by an unqualified crew — a damaged roof in Colorado Springs compounds through freeze-thaw cycles, heavy snow, and the next storm season.
Fighting your insurance company alone
Filing a storm damage claim without a knowledgeable contractor is one of the most common ways homeowners end up underpaid. Adjusters approve what is documented. If your damage was not photographed thoroughly and the full scope was not presented correctly, you cover the difference out of pocket. Most homeowners are not equipped to argue roofing scope with an insurance adjuster, and they should not have to.
Shoddy workmanship and materials that fail early
A roof installed to hit the lowest possible bid cuts corners you cannot see from the ground. Skipped underlayment, rushed flashing, and budget materials do not fail immediately. They fail later, when the contractor is gone and the cost to correct the work lands entirely on you. Quality on a roof is invisible until the day it matters.Without an experienced advocate on your side, insurance adjusters routinely underpay or deny storm damage claims. Navigating an insurance claim alone — without someone who knows how to document and fight for full coverage — costs Colorado Springs homeowners real money.
Damage that worsens while you wait for the right contractor
Every day a compromised roof goes unaddressed, water finds new pathways. A small leak becomes saturated decking, then insulation damage, then framing repair, at many times the original cost. And in El Paso County, the next storm rarely waits. Acting quickly with the right contractor protects both your home and your home equity.
Experience Peace of Mind
When you call Old World Roofing, your roof is handled professionally, so you can focus on what matters most. Here is what that looks like.
Free roof inspections, documented for your insurance claim
We get on your roof and inspect every section, photographing and documenting all damage so you have the evidence your insurance claim depends on. The inspection is free and carries no obligation. You walk away knowing exactly what your roof needs before you make a single decision.
We advocate for your full insurance coverage
We work directly with your insurance adjuster, providing detailed documentation and pressing for the full scope your roof actually requires. You pay your deductible. We handle the rest of the process with you, so the claim reflects the real damage rather than an underestimate.
Owens Corning Platinum Protection warranty on eligible systems
As an Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor, the highest tier Owens Corning offers and held by fewer than 1% of contractors nationally, we can provide the Owens Corning Platinum Protection warranty on eligible shingle systems. It covers more than materials, it is transferable if you sell your home, and it is backed by a contractor that has been here since 1977.
We Know What It Feels Like to Be Let Down by a Contractor
We understand how stressful it is to deal with storm damage and an insurance claim while sorting through contractors you have never heard of, several of whom are not from here and will not be here next year. You want to do right by your home, and you should not have to make a major decision under pressure from someone whose business depends on you signing before you can check them out. You deserve a guide you can trust, not another sales pitch.

Are roof inspections really free?
Yes. Roof inspections are free with no obligation to proceed. We get on the roof, document the condition, and give you a straight answer about what we find, whether that is storm damage, normal wear, or something that needs immediate attention. After storm events, we can typically schedule an inspection the same day or next day.Manufacturer warranties require certified installation to be valid. A contractor who cuts corners on the installation process — using the wrong fasteners, skipping underlayment, ignoring manufacturer specs — can void your warranty before the ink on the contract dries.
What makes Old World Roofing different from other contractors?
Three things set us apart. We have been a local, family-owned El Paso County roofing contractor since 1977. We hold both the Owens Corning Platinum Preferred and CertainTeed Master Shingle Applicator credentials at the same time, which no other contractor in the area can claim. And we live and work here year round, so we are accountable for our work long after the storm chasers have moved on.
