Roofing Contractor in Kersey, CO

Kersey is a small agricultural town on US Highway 34 along the South Platte River, about three miles east of Greeley, in a rapidly growing part of rural Weld County — the one incorporated town along that stretch of US-34, giving Red Hawk a natural anchor point in the valley. It's a historic farming and feedlot community — the roughly 98,000-head Kuner Feedlot sits a few miles east on Highway 34 — and real estate along the river mixes newer custom and acreage-style homes with older farm-town housing stock. No verified named subdivisions were found. Schools fall under Platte Valley RE-7 (Weld County School District No. RE-7), whose district office sits at 501 Clark Street in town.

Kersey sits within Weld County's hail alley, among the highest hail-report-frequency counties in Colorado, and the confirmed data backs that up: NWS storm spotters measured hail on all 5 documented hail days within 10 miles of town center between 2021 and 2026. The largest confirmed hail reached 2.0 inches on May 28, 2024 (6 reports); on August 3, 2023, the ground measurement and NOAA radar's estimate matched exactly at 1.75 inches. Three more dates brought 1.5-inch measured hail, including a September 15, 2024 event — later in the season than most of the storms recorded in this service area. These 5 confirmed days span five different months across four years — May, June, July, August, and September — showing hail risk here isn't confined to a single narrow window of the summer. Given the mix of older farm-town roofs and newer construction along the river, Class 4 impact-resistant shingles are worth discussing on any Kersey replacement given this confirmed history. Kersey's small-town, working-agricultural character puts it in a position similar to Gilcrest and La Salle elsewhere in this Weld County service area — a real, day-to-day farming community rather than a bedroom-community subdivision, with roofing needs to match.

Roof replacement permits in Kersey are issued by the Town of Kersey Building Department at Town Hall, 446 1st St, (970) 353-1681; the town has adopted the 2018 International Building Code, and permit and inspection questions also route through the town's contracted agency, SafeBuilt. Some directories list an alternate Town Hall address, so Red Hawk works from the town's official listing and confirms current details directly with Kersey staff before filing. Red Hawk Roofing pulls the permit and coordinates the final inspection on every Kersey job.
