Sunset sits on the west side of Longmont with a mix of 1950s to 1970s ranch and split-level homes that see frequent roof leaks where valleys meet older asphalt shingles. Longmont Roof & Leak Pros responds from our base in Longmont to address ice dam leaks after heavy snow and wind-driven rain that funnels along Sunset Street and nearby side yards. Crews know the narrow driveways and mature trees that limit equipment access on many blocks here.
Winter snow loads followed by warm days create meltwater that finds its way under flashing around chimneys and skylights common in Sunset homes. We map drainage paths from each roof edge down to the street or alley, then match repairs to the exact pitch and underlayment type already on the house. Same-day temporary patches are standard when a call comes in from residents near the creek corridor.
Service stops include quick checks on south-facing slopes that bake in summer then crack during freeze cycles, plus north exposures that stay shaded and hold moisture longer. Every job starts with a ground-level walk around the lot to note neighbor fences and utility drops before any ladder goes up.

Roof Leak Repair in Sunset, CO — Local Notes
- •Lots along Sunset Street and 17th Avenue often back up to irrigation ditches that raise soil moisture and push water against foundation walls during spring runoff.
- •Mature cottonwoods drop debris onto low-slope sections, so we clear valleys and install larger gutter guards sized for the local leaf load.
- •Access on corner properties near Roosevelt Park requires traffic cones and shorter work windows to avoid school pickup traffic on 3rd Avenue.
- •North-facing roofs in the neighborhood hold snow longer than those in open fields east of town, increasing the chance of ice dam leaks at every plumbing vent.
