Shingles that match Moran Prairie's mix of homes
Drive the neighborhoods off Palouse Hwy and 57th Ave and you see a real range - newer subdivision houses, custom builds, and homes set back on semi-rural acreage. Asphalt shingle works across all of them because the style options are so broad. Architectural (dimensional) shingles give you depth and shadow lines that read well on a larger roof plane, while designer profiles can mimic the look of wood shake or slate without the weight or upkeep.
We help you pick a color and profile that fits the home and the lot. A house on open acreage reads differently than one tucked into a tree-lined street, and the sun exposure out here changes how a color looks across the seasons. We bring samples to your free estimate so you are choosing against your actual siding, trim, and surroundings - not a tiny chip in a showroom.
Engineered for the south Spokane climate
Moran Prairie sits high enough that winter shows up in force. A shingle roof here has to handle accumulating snow, the freeze-thaw cycle that pries at any weak seam, and ice dams that form when heat escapes at the eaves. Wind and summer hail add their own stress. We install a full GAF roofing system rather than just laying shingles - that means proper underlayment, ice-and-water shield at the eaves and valleys, balanced intake-and-exhaust ventilation, and correctly sealed flashings.
- Ice dam defense: waterproof membrane where meltwater backs up
- Ventilation: keeps the attic cold so snow melts evenly instead of refreezing at the edge
- Wind rating: architectural shingles rated for the gusts that sweep the prairie
What a typical project looks like
Most Moran Prairie reroofs run on a predictable rhythm. We tear off the old roofing down to the deck, inspect and replace any soft or rotted sheathing, then dry-in the roof before any shingles go down. Layers go on in order - underlayment, membrane in the vulnerable spots, starter course, field shingles, ridge cap - with flashing details handled by hand around chimneys, vents, and wall intersections.
On semi-rural lots we plan staging and cleanup around your driveway length and outbuildings so trucks and debris bins are not in your way for days. We run a magnet sweep for nails before we leave, because nobody wants stray fasteners in a gravel drive or near where pets and kids walk.
Why homeowners here choose DG Contracting
We are a family-owned company that has been roofing the Inland Northwest since 2013, and we hold GAF Master Elite certification - a status fewer than 2-3% of roofers in the country earn. That matters on the warranty: it lets us back qualifying installs with the GAF Golden Pledge, with coverage running 25 to 50 years on materials, on top of our own 15-25 year workmanship warranty.
Our reputation is built locally - a 5.0 rating across 288 Google reviews from neighbors around south Spokane. We are licensed and insured in both Washington and Idaho, offer flexible financing, and include a 15-25 year workmanship warranty with a roof replacement.

Repair, replace, or hold off another season
Not every call ends in a full replacement. If your shingle roof is mid-life and the trouble is a lifted flashing, a few wind-damaged tabs, or a leak around a vent boot, a targeted repair is often the right move. We will tell you straight when a fix makes sense and when patching good money onto a worn roof does not.
Signs it is time to look closely: granules collecting in the gutters, curling or cupping shingle edges, bald spots where the asphalt mat shows through, or daylight and staining in the attic. After a hard winter or a hail event, a quick inspection is worth it even if nothing is leaking yet - catching it early on Moran Prairie's exposed roofs keeps a small problem from becoming a deck replacement.
