Why are my roof shingles curling in Boise?
Bork Roofing checks curling shingle edges, missing shingles, granule loss in the gutters, quarter-sized dark hail bruises, and dents in metal flashing, vents or gutters on Boise roofs.
What a curled edge means for the rest of the roof comes out of that check, not from a look up from the ground.
Bork Roofing serves Boise, Meridian, Nampa, Star, Eagle, Caldwell, Kuna, Middleton, Garden City and Emmett, in Treasure Valley, Ada County, Canyon County and Gem County. Roof evaluations are on its service list, and the shingle side of the business sits on the Asphalt Shingle Roofing (Boise, ID) page.
Do curling shingles mean hail or wind damage on a Treasure Valley roof?

A curled edge by itself may not name the cause, so hail gets checked on its own terms. On a Boise roof, Bork Roofing looks for quarter-sized dark round bruising from hail, plus dents in metal flashing, vents or gutters. Granule loss in the gutters belongs to the same check.
A storm-damage roof inspection in the Boise area costs nothing. Storm and wind damage roof repair is one of Bork Roofing’s services, and so is hail damage work.
What does a new roof cost if curling shingles mean replacement?
Bork Roofing says most full roof replacements in Idaho range from $6,100 to $20,700, with an average near $7,947. This is not a quote for a particular roof.
Your own figure comes off your own roof. Photos and a written scope start every Bork Roofing job, and that scope is the document to ask for before a single shingle comes off. Re-roofing and tear-offs both sit on the service list, and Meridian falls inside the service area, covered on the Meridian Roofing Company page.

How do roof insurance claims work after a storm damages shingles?
Bork Roofing helps homeowners document storm damage, write the scope, and meet the insurance adjuster at their home to assist with filing and negotiating the insurance claim. A hail or wind claim on a shingle roof runs on paper, and the paper starts up on the roof.
This is the order Bork Roofing gives customers for talking to an adjuster:
- Document the damage right after the storm
- Get a roofer for photos and a written scope of work
- File the claim with your insurer
- Have your roofer present at the adjuster meeting
Roof leaks are on Bork Roofing’s service list, and storm damage is too, so the repair side and the claim side can stay with one company.
Should curling asphalt shingles be replaced with metal instead?
The owner’s answer turns on how long you plan to stay in the house. If a homeowner plans to stay in their home for decades, wants one more roof, or needs snow shedding and wind rating, metal roofing makes sense; if none of these situations fit, asphalt shingles may serve better for less money.
| Your situation | What fits, in the owner’s words |
|---|---|
| Staying for decades, wanting one more roof, or needing snow shedding and wind rating | Metal roofing makes sense |
| None of those situations fit | Asphalt shingles may serve better for less money |
Standing seam metal roofing is on Bork Roofing’s service list. See the metal roofing vs. asphalt shingles comparison.

Frequently asked questions
Why are my roof shingles curling?
Bork Roofing counts curled shingle edges among the damage signs it checks on a Boise roof, along with granule loss in the gutters and missing shingles. A curled edge on its own does not name the cause, so the roof needs an up-close look before anyone talks repair or replacement.
What does Bork Roofing charge to look at my roof after a storm?
Nothing, in the Boise area: a storm-damage roof inspection carries no charge. Photos and a written scope come at the start of every job, so ask for both in your hands.
How long does roof replacement take?
Bork Roofing has not put a set timeline in this guide. Ask for the schedule in writing alongside your scope of work, so the dates sit next to the price instead of living in a phone conversation.
Does Bork Roofing serve my town?
Yes, if your town sits on this list: Boise, Meridian, Nampa, Star, Eagle, Caldwell, Kuna, Middleton, Garden City and Emmett, across Treasure Valley, Ada County, Canyon County and Gem County. Curling shingles on a roof inside that area are worth a call.
Which shingle will go on my roof?
When comparing quotes, ask which shingle product is going on your roof. Roof shingles are on Bork Roofing’s service list, so ask for the shingle to be named in the written scope.
Is a new roof tax deductible?
This guide does not provide tax advice. Ask a tax professional about your own return. Each job opens with photos and a written scope, which is worth keeping with your records.
Will Bork Roofing meet my insurance adjuster?
Yes. Bork Roofing will meet your adjuster at your home and help with the filing and the negotiation, after the damage is documented and the scope written. It advises homeowners to have their roofer present at that meeting.
Can Bork Roofing look at a commercial building’s roof in Boise after a storm?
Lite commercial roofing is on Bork Roofing’s service list. Ask for photos and a written scope before approving work on a commercial roof.
