Is Bork Roofing licensed and insured in Idaho?

Yes. Idaho contractor registration RCE-6110 is on file with the state and the company carries full insurance. Damon Bork has owned it since 2004. It holds GAF Master Elite status and a BBB A+ rating with accreditation since 2011. Ask for proof of both at your free inspection.

How much does a new roof cost in Emmett?

Size, pitch, layers to tear off and material choice set the number. Exact figures come in a written estimate after a free inspection, and the roof replacement cost guide walks through what moves the price up or down. Financing breaks the total into monthly payments if you want to spread it out.

Should I repair or replace my Emmett roof?

Repair makes sense for contained damage: a handful of wind lifted shingles, one leaking pipe boot, a bad flashing run. Replace once shingles curl, shed granules or leak in several places at once. A free inspection with photos settles it, with a written price for both paths so you can compare.

What does the free roof inspection cover in Emmett?

A full walk of the roof with a camera: shingle wear, granule loss, lifted tabs, flashing at chimneys and walls, and metal panels or membrane seams on outbuildings. The attic check looks for daylight, staining and airflow. The photo report and a written price land in your hands.

Is there a roofer near me in Emmett?

The shop sits at 1475 N Hornback Ave in Star, about 25 minutes from Emmett. Crews work Emmett every week on roof replacement, roof repair, storm damage and free inspections. You get the same crew, the same written pricing and one phone number, (208) 869-6674, rather than a call center that sells your job on.

Reviewed by Damon Bork, Owner, leading Bork Roofing since 2004.

If you typed roofing emmett idaho into a search bar, you already know the catch: Emmett sits in Gem County, over Freezeout Hill from the Treasure Valley floor, and plenty of crews will not cross it. Ours do. Emmett mixes older homes near downtown, farm and orchard ground outside it, and newer builds spreading along the bench. Crews cover the whole town, communities like Harvest Valley, Highland, Legacy Heights, Cherry Heights and Harmony Meadows included.

What to know

Emmett roofers who put it in writing

Emmett roofers can be hard to compare from a search page. Check three things before you sign anything: an Idaho contractor registration, proof of insurance and a review record you can verify. Bork Roofing shows all three: RCE-6110 on file with the state, full coverage in writing and a 5.0 Google rating with the live count on the reviews page. Every estimate names the shingle line, the underlayment, the flashing plan and the price before a single nail goes in.

Roof replacement

Roof replacement in Emmett

Emmett roof replacement starts with a tear off down to the decking. We swap out soft wood, then rebuild the full system: synthetic underlayment, ice and water shield at the eaves and valleys, new flashing, ridge vents and architectural shingles from GAF, Malarkey or Owens Corning. GAF Timberline HDZ and UHDZ lead most quotes. Most homes take one to three days once material arrives. The roof replacement page covers the process, the roof replacement cost guide shows what moves the price, and roof financing turns the total into monthly payments.

Roof repair

Roof repair in Emmett

Emmett roof repair calls range from a single wind lifted shingle to a valley rebuild on a roof that has carried decades of Gem County weather. We trace each roof leak to its source, show photos of missing shingles, cracked pipe boots or loose flashing, and quote the fix in writing before work starts. Book through the roof repair page, or use emergency roof repair when water is already inside. For tarping, call (208) 869-6674.

Storm damage

Storm, wind and hail damage in Emmett

Wind gets a long run at Emmett rooftops, and summer thunderstorms drop hail on Gem County most years. We document hail damage and wind damage with photos, write the full scope and meet your insurance adjuster on the roof so the claim covers real repairs, not guesses. Roof tarping holds the weather out until the claim clears. Start at storm damage roof repair and read the roof insurance claims guide before you call your insurer.

Metal roofing

Metal roofing in Emmett

A standing seam metal roof fits Emmett: farm buildings wear it for decades, and newer homes pick it for snow shedding and wind strength. We quote standing seam next to shingles so the numbers sit side by side and the choice stays yours. Profiles and colors live on the metal roofing page.

Outbuildings count too. Barns, shops and hay covers get the same written estimate as the house, and we repair panel fasteners, seams and ridge caps on metal that still has life left in it. One visit can cover the whole property, from the house roof to the last shed.
