Upper Clover Basin sits on the northwest edge of Longmont with homes built mostly in the late 1990s through early 2000s on sloped lots that drain toward Left Hand Creek. Snow from Boulder County winters melts and refreezes along north-facing eaves, pushing water under shingles and flashing on these roofs. Longmont Roof & Leak Pros responds to calls from this neighborhood with targeted leak location and repair before water reaches ceilings.
Access to many properties runs along Clover Basin Drive and narrower private drives that can ice over quickly. Crews bring ladders suited for the basin terrain and check both the main roof planes and the lower garage transitions common in the subdivision. Work stays focused on the actual leak path rather than full replacement unless the homeowner requests it.
Residents near Sandstone Ranch and the Upper Clover Basin Open Space often see wind-driven rain from the foothills add to the problem. We inspect step flashing around chimneys and skylights that face the prevailing westerlies, then seal or replace only the damaged sections.

Roof Leak Repair in Upper Clover Basin, CO — Local Notes
- •Many Upper Clover Basin roofs use architectural shingles installed over 20 years ago; ice dams form fastest on the north slopes that back up to the open space.
- •Lots drop toward the creek, so water from melting snow can pool at the lower eaves if gutters are clogged with cottonwood debris from the basin.
- •Driveways are often steep and narrow, requiring shorter service trucks and extra caution when staging materials in winter.
- •Homes adjacent to Union Reservoir experience stronger crosswinds that lift underlayment edges, creating entry points for summer thunderstorms.
