Types of Residential Roofs We Install
At A-1 Contractors, Inc., we’ve worked with nearly every residential roofing system used in Montana’s climate. During your appointment, one of our experts will walk you through the best options for your budget, your long-term goals, and the weather demands of Havre’s region.
Asphalt Shingle Roofing
Asphalt shingles remain our most popular roofing option thanks to their balance of durability, resilience, and affordability. High-quality shingles hold up exceptionally well in Havre’s snow load, high summer UV exposure, and strong Chinook winds. Our team installs every shingle system with precision, ensuring a strong, reliable roof you can trust for decades.
Flat Roofing
While less common for residential homes, flat roofs offer a clean, modern look and require limited maintenance when installed correctly. Because flat roofs have very little slope, proper waterproofing and drainage are critical—especially in areas like Havre where spring snowmelt can be heavy. Our experts will walk you through whether a flat roofing system fits your home’s layout and provide guidance on maintaining it throughout the year.
Metal Roofing
More Havre homeowners are choosing metal roofing because of its incredible lifespan and superior protection against Montana’s notorious weather. Metal roofs resist high winds, shed snow efficiently during long winters, and remain energy efficient during hot and dry summer months. Although metal roofing has a higher upfront cost, its long-term value, low maintenance requirements, and impressive durability make it a smart investment for North Central Montana homeowners.
Weather Challenges Havre Homeowners Face
Havre may be known for its sweeping prairies and small-town charm, but its weather is no joke. Homes here face a unique mix of climate conditions that make professional roofing essential:
Common Weather Hazards in Havre, MT
- Heavy Snowfall: Havre winters frequently bring significant snow accumulation, which can lead to ice dams, stress on roof structures, and leaks if not properly managed.
- Bitter Cold & Freeze–Thaw Cycles: Rapid temperature drops can cause materials to expand and contract, loosening shingles and damaging roof membranes.
- Strong Chinook Winds: High winds can lift shingles, bend flashing, and expose underlayment—especially on aging roofs.
- Hailstorms: Late-summer hail is common along the Hi-Line, often requiring repairs or insurance claims.
- Intense Sun Exposure: Havre’s sunny summers cause UV degradation over time, shortening the lifespan of lower-quality roofing materials.
A durable, properly installed roof is more than an upgrade—it’s protection against Montana’s harsh, year-round elements.
How to Know Whether to Repair or Replace Your Roof
One of the top questions homeowners ask is, “Do I need a repair, or is it time for a full replacement?” The answer depends on the age of your roof, the severity of damage, and how often issues keep returning.
Consider a Roof Repair If:
- Damage is limited to a small area
- A storm caused isolated issues
- Only a few shingles are missing or curling
- Leaks are minor and easy to trace
- The roof is still relatively young
Consider a Roof Replacement If:
- Your roof is 20–25+ years old
- Granules are shedding visibly (common with aging shingles)
- You experience repeat leaks
- There are widespread soft spots or sagging areas
- Shingle damage covers multiple sections
- Repairs are becoming more frequent and costly
When in doubt, our drone-assisted roof inspections provide a detailed, high-resolution look at the entire system—making the choice between repair and replacement clear and confident.

We highly recommend A-1 contractors! What professionals! And they aren’t kidding when they say no job too big or too small. We needed a new roof on a small … More home in the mountains, and we needed it before fall weather set in. Joe, Beau, Jacob, Jose, Sean and Bird fit us in and made the drive out to help us on a Sunday. With A-1 we didn’t have to worry about a thing. They were prompt, prepared, and there were no additional or unexpected costs added to our original estimate. The roof was completed as if by magic, and when they left there was no trace of them having been there at all, except for a beautifully installed roof.
I love the fact that the company is family owned, now with their second or third generation of family members in charge, and also appreciate the fact that Joe, one of the owners, came out to work side by side, with the rest of his crew. The precision of their work was impressive. It seemed as if every move was finely orchestrated. With their attention to quality and detail, you can tell that this is a team who has worked together for a while, almost making me wish that I needed another roof so that I could call them again. -
We recently had A-1 re-do our vinyl flat roof on our home. They were great. They were prompt, professional and the price was exactly what they quoted us. … More The work is done well, and they are giving us a 5-year warranty on workmanship. The employees who showed up were courteous and friendly. This was a big and expensive job, and they were really top notch. I have no problem recommending them. -
They are amazing! My mother needed a last minute replacement on her roof for the sale of the house. Within 24 hours they had the estimate back to us and … More the job scheduled. They did everything they had to so they could squeeze us in last minute. They job was done within two days! We have had roofs replaced before and usually find nails and wood all over the yard after. I couldnt believe how clean the yard was after! They really came through for us in a critical moment. We appreciate them and their professionalism so much!
