About Federal Heights
Federal Heights is a small Adams County city of 14,382 residents at the 2020 census, sitting in the North Denver Metro on Denver's north side, generally bounded by Federal Boulevard and Pecos Street to the west and east and 84th to 104th Avenues to the south and north. The city is surrounded by Westminster and Thornton, with Interstate 25 running along its eastern edge as the primary commuter route into downtown Denver and the city's sports venues, and US Highway 36 nearby giving quick access toward Boulder.
Federal Heights' housing stock is largely 1960s and 1970s split-level and bi-level ranch homes, concentrated in neighborhoods like Northborough Heights, alongside the Holiday Hills Village manufactured-home community. Adams 12 Five Star Schools — the district covering Broomfield, Federal Heights, Northglenn, Thornton, and Westminster, serving roughly 33,500 students — handles education citywide, including Federal Heights Elementary School.
For roofing, Federal Heights sits within NOAA's "Hail Alley" — the Colorado-Nebraska-Wyoming corridor with the highest hail frequency in North America. NOAA radar and NWS Local Storm Report records document five significant hail events of 1 inch or larger within 10 miles of the city between 2021 and 2026, all five reaching 1.5 inches or larger, the largest a 2.75-inch stone measured on May 30, 2024. Stones that size shatter asphalt-shingle mats, fracture the granule surface, and dent metal flashing, vents, and gutters — damage that is often invisible from the ground but shortens a roof's remaining service life. Given the age of Federal Heights' housing stock, many roofs already carry years of cumulative impact damage that homeowners haven't identified, which makes a documented inspection worth scheduling even without an obvious leak.
Residential re-roof permits in Federal Heights are issued by the City of Federal Heights Building Department at 2380 W 90th Ave. Colorado code requires synthetic underlayment, ice-and-water shield, and proper drip edge on every replacement. Red Hawk Roofing services Federal Heights and the rest of the North Denver Metro — not having a storefront in every town doesn't mean we won't drive to it. Call the main line at (720) 771-8921 for a free written estimate, and Red Hawk pulls the NOAA storm record for your address as part of every inspection so damage timestamps hold up with your carrier.
