Roofing in Star, Idaho.

Roof replacement, storm and hail damage, and repairs for Star homeowners. About 20 minutes north-west.

What Star roofs are dealing with

Star has grown more than 1,000 percent since 1990 and over 80 percent in four years to about 20,000 people. Housing units went from roughly 1,800 in 2013 to 4,700 in 2023, so almost everything here is a young roof — which mostly means storm damage and installation defects rather than age.

Star's published criteria put the city in wind Exposure C — more open ground, less shelter than a built-up neighborhood. That matters for fastener patterns and for where shingles lift first. Star also lists ice barrier underlayment as not required.

Permits in Star

Star lists “re-roofing projects” among the work requiring a building permit, issued by the city's own building department under the 2018 IRC with Idaho amendments. We pull it.

Ask any roofer knocking on your door after a storm which permit they pull in Star and who inspects it. The answer tells you whether they work here or just drove in.
