Shingle Roofing in the Flathead Valley: What Homeowners Should Know

Why Shingle Roofing Is So Popular in the Flathead Valley

From Kalispell to Columbia Falls, homeowners choose asphalt shingles because they strike the right balance of affordability, strength, and style. A new shingle roof can last 20–30 years, and today’s premium shingles—like those made by Malarkey Roofing Products—include features that help them last even longer in our northern climate.

Compared to metal or tile, shingle roofing offers:

• Lower upfront cost
• Easier installation and repair
• Dozens of color and texture options
• Reliable performance in snow, rain, and wind

Choosing the Right Shingles for Montana’s Climate

Our freeze–thaw cycles, heavy snow loads, and strong UV exposure can take a toll on standard shingles. That’s why Sisu Roofing installs impact-resistant and algae-resistant shingles, which handle hail and moisture better while maintaining their curb appeal over time.

We also use ice-and-water underlayment and proper ridge ventilation, so your roof can “breathe” and avoid ice damming—a common issue during long Montana winters.

Signs Your Shingle Roof May Need Repair or Replacement

If you notice any of the following, it’s time to schedule a roof inspection:

• Missing or curling shingles
• Shingle granules collecting in gutters
• Leaks or water stains in your attic
• Dark streaks or moss growth
• Roof age over 15–20 years

Our team will assess the condition honestly and tell you if a simple repair can extend your roof’s life—or if it’s time for a full replacement. We never push unnecessary work; we just want your home protected year-round.

How Much Does a Shingle Roof Cost in the Flathead Valley?

Every home is different, but most shingle roofs in the Flathead Valley fall between $8,000 and $14,000 depending on size, pitch, and material choice. Investing in higher-quality shingles upfront can save thousands over time by avoiding premature leaks or replacements.
