Here in the Pacific Northwest, we all know the drill—wet, windy, and unpredictable for most of the year. But when summer rolls around, it’s finally time to tackle the big projects—like replacing your roof. That dry stretch gives us the best shot at doing the job right. But before we get up there and start swinging hammers, you’re probably wondering:
“What’s the best roofing material for my home?”
It’s a fair question. Between the heavy rains, wild wind gusts, snow load in the winters, and the occasional blast of summer heat, not just any roof will cut it out here. And as a local company rooted right here in North Idaho and Eastern Washington, Precision Gutters and Roofing has seen it all.
Why Quality Roofing Materials Matter
Your roof is your home’s first line of defense against the elements, and in the Inland Northwest, that means a lot: rain, snow, wind, and everything in between. That’s why quality matters. Cut corners, and you’ll pay for it later, both in repairs and in peace of mind.
Not every roofing material is made for our climate. What works in drier or warmer regions won’t stand up to snow load, moss, and wet conditions. We help you weigh the key factors—durability, maintenance, and curb appeal—so you get a roof that fits your home and holds up over time.
Investing in the right roof now saves you money and stress down the road. It boosts your home’s value, lowers energy bills, and protects what matters most. Go cheap, and you’ll likely end up paying twice.
At Precision Gutters and Roofing, we don’t just install roofs—we stand behind them. We’ve spent years testing and selecting the best materials for our region. Every job reflects our name, and we take that seriously. When we put on a roof, we ensure it’s built to last.
The Two Roofing Products We Stand Behind
1. Brava Synthetic Shake Roofing Tiles
When folks ask us for a cedar shake look without the rot, mold, fire hazard, and sky-high maintenance, we point them to Brava. These composite shingles are made from a high-performance polymer that mimics the natural beauty of cedar shakes—but they’ll outlast and outperform wood in every way.
- Rustic, authentic look
- Lightweight but strong
- Zero mold or rot risk
- Fire-rated and UV-resistant
Brava isn’t just pretty; it’s tough. And it’s made for homes that face the full force of Inland Northwest weather.
2. IKO Performance Shingles with ArmourZone
IKO has been doing this for over 70 years, and they’ve got it dialed in. Their Performance Shingles are our go-to for homeowners who want peace of mind and clean curb appeal.
- ArmourZone technology for added strength
- 130 mph wind warranty
- Excellent value for long-term protection
- Time-tested durability in tough climates
IKO brings the kind of quality that’s hard to fake and even harder to beat.
