A complete roof system, not just shingles
A lot of folks think of roof installation as laying shingles. On the rural lots northwest of Spokane, that's only the visible part. DG Contracting installs every layer of the GAF system together so the components are engineered to work as a unit: a sealed deck, ice-and-water barrier at the eaves and valleys, synthetic underlayment across the field, starter strip, the shingles themselves, ridge cap, and balanced intake-and-exhaust ventilation.
When those pieces are specified and installed together on a new build, you get the full GAF Golden Pledge warranty backing - 25 years on workmanship and up to 50 on the materials. That whole-system approach is also what lets us hit the standard required for Golden Pledge coverage, which only a small fraction of contractors can offer.
Built for the Long Lake climate
Homes near Long Lake / Lake Spokane sit through hard winters: deep snow loads, repeated freeze-thaw, and the ice dams that form when meltwater refreezes at a cold eave. A new roof is the one chance to get the defenses right from the deck up.
- Ice dam protection - self-adhering membrane runs well past the warm-wall line at eaves and into every valley.
- Wind resistance - exposed lots catch the gusts that funnel down the river valley, so we use high-wind-rated shingles and proper nailing patterns.
- Ventilation - balanced airflow keeps the attic cold in winter, which is the real long-term fix for ice damming.
New construction and full tear-offs along Hwy 291
Whether your home is a brand-new build or a 1990s place on a few acres getting its first replacement, we install down to clean decking. On a tear-off we pull every old layer, inspect the sheathing for soft spots or past leaks, and replace any compromised wood before a single shingle goes down. Plenty of older Hwy 291 properties have had moisture quietly working at the deck for years - better to find it now than to roof over it.
For new construction, we coordinate around your build schedule so the structure gets dried in on time and the finished roof matches the GAF specification your warranty depends on.
Roofing rural, wooded properties
The lots out here aren't tidy subdivision squares. Tall pines drop needles and shade large sections of roof, long private driveways limit how close a dump trailer can stage, and septic and well lines mean we plan material drops and cleanup carefully. We protect landscaping, run magnetic sweeps for nails afterward, and account for tree debris that tends to hold moisture against shingles on the shaded north slopes common on rural wooded lots northwest of Spokane.
If a full installation is more than your home needs right now, we'll tell you - roof repair in Tum Tum may buy you years. We'd rather earn the install honestly.
