If a recent storm dropped hail on Cimarron, your roof may be damaged even if nothing is leaking yet.
The county record behind Cimarron is 1 hail events over 30 years and a maximum stone of 0.88 inches. Damage at that scale bruises and cracks shingles long before it leaks. A free inspection settles what your roof actually took: test squares, counts, dated photos, and a written view you can hand your insurer. Call the number on this page — the call and the inspection are free.

Hail rarely stops at the shingles. The same storm that bruises a roof in Cimarron dents gutters, splits siding and starts leaks, so the six services below are the ones local pros are called for most after a storm here.
A pro measures every slope first and talks through materials, Class 4 impact-resistant options and cost factors before any work is booked in Cimarron. You get photos before, during and after the work, plus the paperwork your insurer and any future buyer will ask for when the house changes hands.
📞 Call NowSmall runs are often repaired the same visit; long crushed sections are measured and replaced to match the profile already on the house in Cimarron. Dents along a run are photographed before any straightening — once the metal is repaired, the evidence of the storm's size goes with it.
📞 Call NowInspections are the cheapest way to know where you stand before a claim deadline runs out, and they cost nothing through one free call here. The report separates storm damage from wear and old repairs, which is the same distinction your insurer's adjuster will draw standing on the same roof.
📞 Call NowEmergency leaks are first dried in to stop the water today; the permanent repair is then scheduled and documented for your claim file as well. Fast repairs stop a small entry point from rotting decking and insulation, which is where a cheap fix quietly turns into a structural bill later.
📞 Call NowUndersized or sagging old lines are upgraded at the same time, so heavy Front Range downpours stop overwhelming the system every single summer storm. When hail crushes long runs beyond straightening, replacement is the honest fix: new sections, correct pitch, sealed corners and downspouts that drain clear.
📞 Call NowWhere an exact colour match is impossible on weathered walls, the pro plans panel placement so the replaced runs sit on the least visible elevation. Small areas are patched panel by panel; long cracked runs are re-sided so the wall sheds water properly again instead of trapping it behind panels.
📞 Call NowAn active leak gets worse by the hour, not by the week. While you wait, the water is wetting decking and insulation above the ceiling. Call now — emergency cover for Cimarron runs around the clock, with typical arrivals of 30–60 minutes. The call itself is free.
Protect Your Rooms Move furniture and valuables away from drips; set a bucket under each.
Photograph Everything Take date-stamped photos of the damage, the hail and any stains.
Keep Everyone Clear Keep children and pets away from wet ceilings and sagging plaster.

Here is exactly what happens when you call: nothing is sold on the phone, and the decision stays with you throughout.
The pro calls you back at the number you gave, usually fast, and agrees a time to look at the roof. They inspect, photograph and explain what they find, then quote the work in writing before anything starts.
We take your details and the Cimarron ZIP code, then alert an independent local roofing pro who covers storm work in Gunnison County. You are not passed around a call centre or sold a package on the phone.
The first call takes just a few minutes: your name, the Cimarron address and ZIP, and what the storm did. That is everything the pro needs to ring you back with a plan and a visit time.
These are the Cimarron ZIP codes covered by pros reached through this page. Your ZIP is how the match works: it tells us whose patch the house sits in and which storm records apply to it, so have it ready when you ring.

Not all of Colorado hails the same. In Cimarron, four things stack the odds: how often Gunnison County storms, how high the town sits, how old its roofs are, and what the winter does to summer damage. The figures below are this town's, from the sources listed on this page.
Put the county's record in state context: 1 hail events in Gunnison County across 30 years, the largest stone 0.88 inches. Cimarron is not an outlier street or an unlucky subdivision — it is one town inside a county-sized pattern that NOAA has been logging since 1995. Roofs here are not occasionally tested by hail; they are on a schedule of tests, and the only choice is whether each test is documented when it happens.
Elevation writes the fine print of every Cimarron roof's life. At 8,887 feet the ultraviolet dose is a fifth or more above sea level, so the granule layer is not decoration — it is the only thing standing between the sun and the asphalt. Hail strips that layer in patches, and from then on each summer day cures those patches harder and more brittle, until a cold night finishes what the storm started.
The housing stock sets the stakes. The median Cimarron-area home was built in 1996, and 22.4% of homes date from before 1980 — roofs on older homes have often been replaced once already, and the shingles up there now may themselves be mid-life or older. With 90.1% of homes owner-occupied, most repair decisions here are made by the person who also pays the deductible, which is why honest counts matter.
Winter is when summer's hail sends its bill. The normals for the Cimarron station put Cimarron at about 66.7 inches of snow and 235.3 nights below freezing a year: load on the deck for weeks, meltwater hunting for every crack the stones left, ice prising at the eaves. A roof can honestly 'survive' a June storm and be leaking by February — the seasons here work as a team.
Cimarron sits in Hail Alley, and its hail is judged against three marks: 1-inch hail (quarter size) cracks older, brittle mats; 1.75-inch hail (golf ball size) breaks most standard shingles outright; and 2-inch-plus hail (tennis ball size) can dent metal and damage the decking itself. Most Cimarron homes carry asphalt shingles — architectural (dimensional) shingles on the newer builds, 3-tab shingles on the older ones — and the upgrade conversation is Class 4 impact-resistant shingles, tested to the UL 2218 impact rating and often earning an insurance premium discount (Class 4) at renewal.Cimarron Roof Risk Snapshot

Settle in — this guide covers the whole story for Cimarron: the damage itself, the evidence, the claim, the repair decision and the winters after. It is written from Gunnison County's own storm record, not generic roofing advice. It begins with the storm itself: hail grown in a powerful updraft, and the soft metals up top that keep the evidence. It follows the stones onto asphalt and architectural shingles alike.
You will not spot the signs of hail damage from the driveway, and neither will your neighbours — a storm-beaten roof in Cimarron hides in plain sight.
Size thresholds depend on the roof, but the working scale in Colorado runs like this. Quarter-size hail, about 1 inch, scuffs new architectural shingles but cracks older, brittle ones. At 1.75 inches — golf ball size — standard shingles break regularly.
A real inspection is measurement, not opinion. On each slope the pro chalks a test square — ten feet by ten feet — circles every hit inside it, counts them and photographs the result.
Insurers pay for functional damage — harm that shortens the roof's life or lets water in.
In Colorado, almost always yes: hail is a standard covered peril, and Cimarron claims are routine business for insurers working the Front Range and plains.
Counts decide. Harm concentrated on one slope of a young roof usually repairs: the struck shingles, flashing and metals are renewed and the roof goes back to work.
Many Cimarron owners meet their hail damage the following winter, as a ceiling stain. The delay is physical: hail fractures the mat and strips the granules, but the shingle often stays watertight until the exposed asphalt has cooked through a high-altitude summer — UV on exposed asphalt oxidises and embrittles it — and the freeze-thaw cycles of autumn work the cracks open. The storm dates behind claims like these are a matter of public record — the Gunnison County roof repair & replacement page lists the county's.
Your own part is at ground level. Safe ground-level checks a homeowner can do after a storm: binoculars on the slopes, a look at gutters and downspout splash blocks for granules, photographs of any dents in vents and caps, and a glance at ceilings after heavy rain. Neighbours' experience is a guide, too: the pages for hail damage roof repair in Ridgway and Ouray hail damage roof help show what the same storms did a few miles away.
The record behind a Cimarron claim is public: the NOAA / NCEI Storm Events Database logs the storm, the National Weather Service (NWS) issued the warning, the county building department holds the local permit (roofing) rules for the rebuild, and the town's elevation / altitude is part of its weather story. The assembly fails as a system: ice & water shield guards the eaves, flashing guards the joints, roof decking carries the whole build, and gutters clear the water the roof collects — hail that wounds any one of them shortens the working life of the rest. Three practicalities come up in almost every Cimarron job: the honest roof age (paperwork beats guesses), whether tarping or a fuller temporary dry-in is the right first response tonight, and whether a solar panel detach & reset has to be scheduled into the tear-off. Under and around the shingles, the parts that decide leaks are the synthetic underlayment (or older felt underlayment), the drip edge at the eaves, valley metal where slopes meet, the starter strip at the first course, step flashing and counter flashing at walls and chimneys, and the hip and ridge cap shingles along the peaks. On metal homes, a standing seam metal roof takes the same storms differently — it dents where shingles crack. Openings have their own hail weak points: a ridge vent or a turbine vent (whirlybird) can crack or knock off balance, a pipe boot's rubber seal splits in the sun after a bruising, and every vent and stack on the slope is soft-metal evidence of what the storm actually did. The seasons compound it in Cimarron: wind-driven hail does the storm-day damage, then UV degradation cooks the exposed asphalt summer after summer, the freeze-thaw cycle prises the cracks wider each winter, and an ice dam backs meltwater under the eaves of north-facing slopes. The evidence vocabulary is specific: a test square counted in chalk marks proves bruising that the soft metals corroborate, granules washed into the gutters measure the surface a storm has stripped, and a drone inspection covers the steep slopes nobody should walk. Two claim mechanics decide how the money runs: the insurance adjuster who scopes your roof and writes the loss summary, and the filing window your policy sets for reporting storm damage — miss the second and the first never happens.

Tick what you can see from the ground in Cimarron — no ladder, no climbing. Three or more of these signs after a storm means the roof above them almost certainly took functional damage, and a free inspection is the sensible next step before the claim window starts shrinking.
