A Small Town That Asks a Lot of a Roof
Tucked along Hangman (Latah) Creek near the southern edge of Spokane County, Latah is the kind of close-knit farm community where a roof has to earn its keep season after season. Winters drop heavy snow loads and lock valleys in freeze-thaw cycles; summers bake south-facing slopes; and the open Palouse edge lets wind drive rain and grit under any shingle that has started to lift.
DG Contracting LLC has worked across this part of the region since 2013, and we build for those conditions specifically - not for a milder climate somewhere else. When we put a roof on a home or shop in Latah, it is detailed for snow, ice, and the long stretches between town visits that rural properties live with.
Everything We Cover for Latah Properties
We handle the full exterior envelope, so one crew can take care of the parts of your home that work together:
- Roof replacement - complete tear-off and installation using GAF architectural shingle systems sized for snow country.
- Roof repair - leaks, wind-lifted shingles, flashing failures, and damaged valleys.
- Storm and hail damage - documentation and repair after the wind and hail events that roll across the Palouse.
- Roof rejuvenation - extending the life of an aging but sound roof before it needs full replacement.
- Gutters - new seamless gutters and guards, with a 15-25 year workmanship warranty included with a roof replacement.
- Ventilation and ice-dam prevention - balanced intake and exhaust plus ice-and-water protection at the eaves.

Built for Hangman Creek Winters
Properties in the creek bottoms and along the wooded slopes north of town see prolonged cold, drifting snow, and the meltwater that follows. That combination is what produces ice dams - water backing up under shingles where it refreezes at a cold eave.
Our installations address that at the source: ice-and-water shield carried well past the warm wall line, sealed valleys, and a ventilation balance that keeps the roof deck cold enough to stop the freeze-thaw churn. On the open ground toward the Palouse, we add wind-rated fastening and starter strips so the edges that catch the most gust pressure stay locked down.
Credentials That Mean Something Here
Anyone can call themselves a roofer. The distinctions that matter in this trade are harder to earn:
- GAF Master Elite certification - held by only the top 2 to 3 percent of roofing contractors in North America.
- 5.0 rating across 288 Google reviews - earned one Inland Northwest project at a time.
- Licensed and insured in both Washington and Idaho - fully covered for the work we do.
- 15-25 year workmanship warranty backed by the GAF Golden Pledge, with manufacturer coverage running 25 to 50 years.
That Master Elite status is also what lets us offer the Golden Pledge in the first place - it is not a warranty most contractors are allowed to write.
A Family Business You Can Reach Directly
DG Contracting LLC is family owned, and that shows up in how we treat a job in a town the size of Latah. You deal with the people accountable for the work, not a rotating call center. We show up when we say we will, keep the site clean, and stand behind what we install.
For homeowners weighing the cost of a project, we offer flexible financing so a needed roof does not have to wait for the perfect month. And every estimate is free, with no pressure to decide on the spot.
Getting Started in Latah
The process is simple. Call us, tell us what you are seeing - a stain on the ceiling, granules in the gutter, missing shingles after a windstorm - and we will set up a time to come out. We inspect the whole roof, document what we find, and give you a written estimate you can actually understand.
Call (509) 209-1894 to schedule your free Latah estimate, or send us a note through our contact page. We serve homes and farm properties throughout the Hangman Creek valley and the surrounding Palouse edge.
