A South Hill neighborhood worth protecting
Tucked between Manito Park and the older arterials of the upper South Hill, Comstock is one of those Spokane neighborhoods where the streets feel settled. Mature maples and pines shade the sidewalks, lots are generous, and many of the homes were built to last through generations of owners. That charm comes with a roofing reality: older homes often wear older roofing systems, and the same tall trees that make the neighborhood beautiful drop needles, leaves, and the occasional heavy limb onto the shingles below.
We work on Comstock homes the way the neighborhood deserves - carefully, with respect for the existing architecture, and with materials rated to handle Spokane's freeze-thaw swings. Whether your house is a 1920s craftsman or a mid-century rambler, the goal is the same: a watertight roof that looks like it belongs.
Everything we handle for Comstock homeowners
DG Contracting is a full-service roofing company, so a single call covers most of what a South Hill home needs above the walls:
- Full roof replacement - tear-off and new architectural shingle systems built for snow load and wind.
- Roof repair - leaks, missing or blown-off shingles, flashing failures, and storm damage.
- Roof rejuvenation - extending the life of shingles that are drying out but not yet leaking.
- Gutters - new seamless gutters and downspouts, with a 15-25 year workmanship warranty when you replace your roof.
- Storm and emergency response - fast help after wind, hail, or a limb comes down.
- Inspections and free estimates - a clear, honest assessment before you spend a dollar.
Built for Inland Northwest weather
Comstock roofs take a beating that homeowners in milder climates never think about. Winter brings heavy snow that piles up on north-facing slopes, then the daily freeze-thaw cycle works meltwater under shingles and into seams. Where attic heat escapes unevenly, ice dams form along the eaves and back water up beneath the roofing. Summer adds wind and the odd hailstorm to the mix.
We install with those conditions in mind - proper ice-and-water shield at the eaves and valleys, ventilation that keeps the deck temperature even, and flashing details that hold up when the temperature drops below freezing overnight. On older South Hill homes, getting the ventilation right is often what separates a roof that lasts from one that fails early.

What to watch for on an older Comstock roof
Established homes give you signals before a small problem becomes an expensive one. On the South Hill, keep an eye out for shingles that look dark and worn under the tree canopy, granules collecting in the gutters, daylight or water stains in the attic, and moss or debris building up in shaded valleys where the sun rarely reaches. After a windstorm, a quick look from the ground for displaced or missing shingles can save you a leak.
If anything looks off, it is worth a professional set of eyes. We will tell you honestly whether you are looking at a simple repair, a few more good years with rejuvenation, or a replacement - and we will never push the bigger job when the smaller one will do.
