CR Custom Exteriors – Commerce City, CO

Roofing, siding, windows, gutters, and exterior paint for both ends of Commerce City — the older south-end blocks and the new Northern Range subdivisions.

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

Commerce City is really two towns in one, and exterior work has to know the difference. The historic south end around Derby, Rose Hill, and Irondale is full of mid-century homes near the South Platte and the rail corridor, while the Northern Range out past 96th — Reunion, Buffalo Run, Eagle Creek — is wide-open prairie packed with builder-grade homes whose first roofs are now aging out all at once. CR Custom Exteriors is a family-owned, Erie-based contractor that has worked Adams County for over a decade, handling roofing, siding, windows, gutters, and paint with experienced crews and no storm-chaser pressure.

Commerce City spreads across the open plains of southern Adams County at roughly 5,160 feet, and its geography splits it cleanly in two. The original south end sits low in the South Platte River and Sand Creek bottomland near the refinery and rail yards, where damp valley air is hard on the fascia, soffits, and gutter seams of its 1950s and '60s ranches and bungalows. North of there, the fast-growing Northern Range subdivisions sit on bare, treeless prairie between the Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge and Denver International Airport — some of the most wind- and hail-exposed ground on the Front Range, with nothing to slow a storm tracking off the plains. That exposure pries at ridge caps, lifts shingles, and drives rain behind siding, while the thin, high-altitude air lets UV chalk paint and dry out asphalt shingles faster than the manufacturer's chart predicts. With thousands of Reunion and Buffalo Run homes hitting the same age window, whole streets are aging into roof and gutter replacement together.

Built for Northern Range wind and hail

The Reunion, Buffalo Run, and Eagle Creek subdivisions sit on open prairie between the Rocky Mountain Arsenal refuge and DIA, with nothing to break the wind or hail coming off the plains. We install and fasten impact-rated roofing and siding for that exposure, not generic calm-day spec.

We work both ends of Commerce City

The mid-century ranches and bungalows around Derby, Rose Hill, and Irondale need very different work than the builder-grade homes filling the Northern Range. We scope each one for its real age and construction instead of running one template across town.

Adams County local for over a decade

We're family-owned and based up the road in Erie, serving Commerce City, Brighton, and Henderson for years — not an out-of-state outfit that shows up after a storm and disappears. Free in-home estimates, an Owens Corning install, and a 4.9-star rating across 150-plus verified Google reviews.

Do I need a permit for a new roof or siding job in Commerce City, CO?
Yes. Reroofs and most siding jobs in Commerce City are permitted through the City of Commerce City building division rather than Adams County, since the city runs its own building department. We pull the permit and schedule the required inspections as part of the job, but always confirm current requirements and fees with the city before work begins, since codes change.
How does Commerce City's weather affect my roof and exterior?
Sitting out on the open plains of southern Adams County at Front Range elevation, Commerce City catches hard hail, strong wind driving across unobstructed terrain, and intense high-altitude UV that ages shingles and fades paint faster than at lower elevations. Daily freeze-thaw swings in winter also work at flashing, sealant, and gutter seams. We build for that exposure with impact-rated shingle options and proper flashing and sealing so your exterior holds up season after season.
Which Commerce City neighborhoods do you serve?
We work throughout Commerce City, including newer north-end communities like Reunion, Villages at Buffalo Run, Buffalo Mesa, Eagle Creek, and River Run, as well as the older south-end neighborhoods. We also cover nearby Brighton, Thornton, Henderson, and Northglenn, so if you are anywhere in this part of the north metro we can get to you.
Can you help with a hail insurance claim after a Commerce City storm?
Yes. After the hail and wind storms that regularly hit this stretch of the plains, we can inspect your roof and exterior, document the damage, and meet your adjuster on site to walk the claim together. We do not decide what your policy covers, so file with your insurer and confirm your deductible and coverage directly with them, and we will handle the repair or replacement once the claim is approved. Estimates are free.
