Family-owned, Owens Corning roofing work across Aurora's three counties, from Original Aurora to the newest east-side subdivisions.

Family-owned · Licensed & insured · 4.9★ from 150+ Front Range reviews · Serving for over a decade

Aurora is Colorado's third-largest city, and its housing runs the full range, from Cold War-era ranches near Lowry and Original Aurora to homes built in 2004 or later out toward Buckley and the eastern plains. CR Custom Exteriors has worked the Front Range for over a decade, and we know an aging asphalt roof in older Aurora needs a different conversation than a 15-year-old builder-grade roof in Tollgate Crossing. We handle roofing, siding, windows, gutters, and exterior paint, and we do it without storm-chaser pressure.

Aurora sprawls east across Arapahoe, Adams, and a sliver of Douglas County, which puts most of the city out on open ground with little tree cover to slow incoming weather. That exposure matters: Front Range hailstorms and the dry-line winds that roll off the eastern plains hit Aurora's neighborhoods hard, and the relentless high-altitude sun bakes south- and west-facing slopes year after year. The east side, including Tollgate Crossing, Saddle Rock, and Murphy Creek, is largely built out in homes from the 2000s whose original builder-grade roofs and gutters are now reaching the end of their service life. Closer in, the older stock around Original Aurora and Meadowood often carries decades-old roofing, aging siding, and single-pane-era windows that are due for an upgrade. Across both, the freeze-thaw swings of a typical Aurora winter punish flashing, seams, and gutter seams that were never sealed for this climate.

Built for Aurora's wide-open exposure

Much of Aurora sits on treeless plains east of Denver, where hail and dry-line wind off the eastern grasslands arrive with nothing to break them. We install and detail roofs, gutters, and siding to stand up to that direct exposure.

Right approach for any era of Aurora home

From postwar ranches around Lowry and Original Aurora to 2000s-built homes in Saddle Rock and Tollgate Crossing, Aurora's housing spans generations. We match materials and scope to the actual age and condition of your home, not a one-size estimate.

Local, certified, and not a storm chaser

We're an Erie-based, licensed and insured Colorado contractor with Owens Corning roofing experience and experienced installers. After an Aurora hailstorm, you get a straight free in-home estimate, not a high-pressure door knock.

Do I need a permit for a roof replacement in Aurora, CO?
Yes. Re-roofs in Aurora require a building permit pulled through the City of Aurora, and roofing is one of the trades the city inspects, so a mid-project and final inspection are typical. One thing that trips up Aurora homeowners is jurisdiction: the city sprawls across Arapahoe, Adams, and a sliver of Douglas County, but the permit still goes through the City of Aurora for addresses inside city limits. We handle the permit and inspections as part of the job, and we'll confirm the exact requirements for your specific address before we start.
Which Aurora neighborhoods do you serve?
We work across the whole city, from the newer subdivisions out east like Saddle Rock, Tollgate Crossing, and Murphy Creek to Meadowood and the older homes in Original Aurora. We also serve the surrounding communities including Centennial, Parker, Denver, and Commerce City. If you're inside or near Aurora, we can get to you.
How does Aurora's weather affect my roof and exterior?
Aurora sits out on open ground east of the metro with little tree cover to slow storms down, so wind-driven rain and hail hit exposed roofs, siding, and gutters hard, especially in spring and summer. The high-plains sun also brings intense UV that fades exterior paint and ages shingles faster than you'd expect, and the freeze-thaw swings between day and night stress caulk lines and flashing. When we inspect, we look specifically for hail bruising, wind-lifted shingles, and UV wear so nothing gets missed.
Can you help with a hail damage insurance claim in Aurora?
Yes. Aurora gets hit regularly during hail season, and a lot of roof and siding work here ends up going through a homeowner's insurance claim. We'll do a free inspection, document any storm damage with photos, and walk you through what your adjuster will want to see, though the claim decision and coverage always come down to your specific insurer and policy. If it's a straightforward repair or replacement instead, we'll give you a clear estimate and a realistic start window.
