HOA roofing guides
Start with the question in front of you
Association roofing involves more people and more paperwork than almost any other kind of roof work. We wrote four guides for the people who carry it: volunteer board members, community managers, and the folks who have to explain the numbers to owners.
A board member's guide to roof replacement
Who does what, how to read a roof assessment, how to compare bids line by line, the questions to ask every roofer, owner communication, design guidelines, contracts and a realistic timeline.
Read the board guideFor community & property managers
One roofer for the whole portfolio: a clear leak-call workflow, scheduled maintenance across properties, reports you can forward, vendor compliance documents and budgeting help.
Manager resourcesAssociation hail & wind claims
Master policy basics, percentage deductibles, documenting damage on dozens of buildings, adjuster meetings, supplements, depreciation, code upgrades and Colorado's roofing rules.
Read the claims guideRoof reserve & capital planning
How long each roof system tends to last in Colorado, planning by condition instead of age, phasing replacements across buildings and the roof data your reserve study needs.
Plan your reservesFor boards
A decision process built around your meetings
Boards meet monthly or quarterly, members change, and every decision has to stand up when an owner asks why. So we deliver the work in pieces a board can review, discuss and vote on, one meeting at a time.
Assessment
We inspect every building and photograph each roof, gutter run and problem area. On low-slope roofs we can add an infrared moisture survey.
Board summary
A short report: condition by building, urgent items and options with the cost drivers behind each one.
Bid package
A clear scope and line items, so you can compare our number with other roofers' apples to apples.
Phasing plan
Buildings sequenced by condition and funding, year by year, ready to hand to your reserve specialist.
Build & close out
Resident notices, daily cleanup, a walkthrough before final payment and warranty records per building.
Want the long version? The board member's guide covers each step, including a table of what to compare between bids and the questions worth asking before you sign.
For property managers
One roofer for the whole portfolio
Managers juggle owners, boards, residents and budgets, often across a dozen communities at once. We make the roof one less thing to chase:
- Leak response with photos of the cause and the fix, ready to forward to the board or owner.
- Scheduled maintenance through our S.M.a.R.T. program, with spring and fall reports for each property.
- Work orders that close cleanly, with invoices that match the approved scope.
- Vendor paperwork on file: certificates of insurance, W-9 and licensing, updated when they renew.
- Capital planning help: remaining-life estimates and replacement budgets for reserve studies.
The property manager page walks through our leak-call workflow, compliance documents and how we report across a portfolio.
Apartments
Low-slope and steep-slope roofs, occupied buildings, tight schedules and owners who want numbers.
Condos & townhomes
Board approvals, color and product selections, design guidelines and resident access.
Mixed-use
Retail below, residents above, and roofs that can't leak on either.
Senior living
Quiet hours, safety zones and clear communication with staff and families.
Association insurance claims
Managing a hail claim across many buildings
Colorado's hail season runs roughly mid-April to mid-August, and one storm can touch every roof in a community. A community-wide claim is a project of its own: dozens of roofs, an adjuster's estimate that may not match the damage, a percentage deductible that can be large, and residents asking when work will start. We help the board and manager through each part:
- Documenting the damage on every building, with photos, measurements and the storm date.
- Meeting the adjuster on the roof and walking the damage together.
- Preparing a detailed scope and supplements when items are missed.
- Explaining the numbers: replacement cost, depreciation, recoverable depreciation and the association's deductible.
- Scheduling the work around claim payments and resident communication.
Our association claims guide explains master policies, deductibles, ordinance or law coverage and how payments usually flow.
We follow Colorado's roofing contract law. We provide a written contract, we never pay, waive or rebate a deductible, and the association keeps its right to cancel within 72 hours of a claim denial.
Roofing an occupied community
The roof is only half the job. The other half is working around people who live there. On every association project we plan for:
- Resident notices before work starts on each building, with dates, parking instructions and a contact name.
- Parking and access: dumpster and material staging agreed with the manager, and cars moved only when residents have been told.
- Quiet hours and start times that respect the community's rules.
- Safety zones around entries, walkways and play areas, moved as the crew moves.
- Daily cleanup, including magnetic sweeps for nails in lawns, beds and parking areas.
- A single point of contact for the manager, so questions don't go to whoever is on the ladder.
Repair, maintain or replace?
Not every aging roof needs replacing, and not every roof that looks fine is. The answer for each building comes from three things: what the roof is made of, whether the insulation under it is dry, and how the community plans to fund the work. On a low-slope roof, an infrared survey with confirming core samples tells us whether targeted repairs will hold or whether water has already spread under the membrane. On steep-slope and metal roofs, the flashings, fasteners and underlayment details usually decide it.
When repairs make sense, we say so, and we put the roof on a maintenance schedule so it reaches the year your reserve plan assigns it. When replacement makes sense, we show the board why, with photos and moisture data, and lay out options that fit the budget instead of a single take-it-or-leave-it number.
Why associations hire a local general contractor
Truman started as a general contractor in 2003 and has been roofing since 2009. We are based in Centennial, near the Denver Tech Center, and work within about 30 miles of Denver. That means we're here after the storm season, when warranty calls come in. We carry a Class-A general contractor license, $2M general liability, a $5M umbrella and workers' comp on every employee, and we're an approved applicator able to offer extended manufacturer warranties on commercial systems.
Estimating is led by Andrew Rickert, our operations manager, who is a CPA as well as a Class-A licensed contractor. The person explaining your budget can also explain how it fits the reserve schedule. And we don't collect final payment until the association signs off on the work.
We install and repair the systems found on Front Range communities: TPO, EPDM, built-up roofing, metal and standing seam and spray foam, plus drone and infrared inspections.
HOA roofing FAQs
Will you present to our board?
Yes. We can attend a board meeting to walk through findings and options and answer questions, in person or by video.
Can we replace roofs over several years?
Yes. We build phasing plans that match reserve funding and prioritize the buildings in the worst condition. See our reserve planning guide for how that works.
Do you work with our community manager?
Yes. We can work day to day with your manager, with the board approving scope and budget.
Will your bid be easy to compare with other roofers' bids?
That's the goal. We break out tear-off, insulation, the roof system, flashings, gutters and allowances for hidden conditions, so your board can line our proposal up against others item by item.
Can you help after a hailstorm even if we haven't filed a claim?
Yes. We can inspect and document each building so the board can decide whether to file. Deciding to file is the association's call, made with its insurance agent.
What do you need from us to start an assessment?
A site map or list of buildings, roof access arrangements, any past roof reports or warranties, and a contact for scheduling. Your manager can usually pull these together in a day.
