Water coming through the ceiling? Move valuables, catch the drip, and poke a small hole in a bulging ceiling to drain it. Then call a roofer for a tarp or temporary repair, and photograph everything for insurance.
💧 Leak or repair
Most leaks start at flashing, vents, skylights or a valley, not the shingles. Ask the roofer to show you photos of the cause before you agree to a replacement.
Cost: Repairs quoted after a free look; Scott’s offers a paid full report, credited if you hire them
Get at least two line-item bids. Compare the underlayment, ice barrier at the eaves and valleys, flashing (new or reused), ventilation and the rot allowance, not just the total.
Cost: Scott’s posts $5–$6 per sq ft of roof for asphalt in Bend (about $10,000–$12,000 for 2,000 sq ft of roof)
Photograph damage from the ground and note the storm date. Get a roofer to document it before or with the adjuster, and ask for a tarp if water is getting in.
Cost: Usually covered by insurance minus your deductible
Bend roofs are designed for at least 20–25 pounds per sq ft. Roughly 20 inches of settled snow is about 25 psf. Ice dams are usually an attic heat-loss problem, so fix air sealing and venting too.
If gutters are undersized or pulling away, replace them with the roof so drip edge and kick-out flashing tie in. Otherwise ask that good gutters be protected and reset.

What’s different about roofing in Bend
Snow, wildfire, summer hail, wind and a big temperature swing every day decide what a good Bend roof looks like.
Snow load
Bend buildings permitted under the building code are designed for at least 20 to 25 pounds per square foot of roof snow. The City’s rule of thumb: inches of snow × 1.25 = psf, so about 20 inches is 25 psf, and each inch of ice adds about 5.2 psf. Flat roofs under 3/12 pitch, older roofs and rain on snow are the risky cases. Sisters and La Pine get heavier snow than Bend.
Bend’s reroof permit exists partly so roofing meets wildfire standards. Asphalt shingles, metal and tile can all reach a Class A fire rating over the right underlayment; untreated wood shakes cannot. Oregon repealed its statewide wildfire hazard map in July 2025 (SB 83), and the R327 ember-resistant code is now optional for local adoption on new homes, so a Class A roof is your call on a reroof outside Bend. Keep needles out of valleys and gutters and use ember-resistant vents.
Summer thunderstorms bring hail to Central Oregon, and Redmond, Prineville and Madras get hard wind. Ask for shingles with a high wind rating installed to the manufacturer’s high-wind nailing pattern, and consider impact-rated (Class 4) shingles if hail is common where you live. After a storm, document damage and call a roofer before or with the adjuster.
Heat leaking into the attic melts roof snow that refreezes at the cold eaves and backs up under the shingles. Bend’s Re-Roof Worksheet says ice barrier and flashing must go in whenever sheathing is exposed (ORSC R905.1.2). The lasting fix is attic air sealing, insulation and venting; heat cable treats the symptom.
Strong UV at 3,600 feet and big day-night temperature swings age shingles and sealants faster than in western Oregon. Pine needles and juniper debris hold moisture on shaded north slopes, where moss can start even in a dry climate.

Reroof permits: City of Bend and Deschutes County
Inside Bend city limits
A permit is required in most cases, because Bend is in a wildfire hazard zone, and always when you change roofing material or add sheathing. The fee is $330, processing typically takes 3–4 days, and you apply as a Renovation/Alteration in the City’s Permit Center portal with the Re-Roof Worksheet.
Deschutes County Community Development handles unincorporated areas such as Tumalo and Deschutes River Woods; Redmond, Sisters and La Pine have their own building departments. Ask your roofer who issues the permit and whether the county requires one for your scope.
Many Bend subdivisions and the Sunriver Owners Association approve roof material and color before work starts. Get HOA approval in writing before you sign a roofing contract with a start date.
Roofers must hold an active Oregon Construction Contractors Board license, with a bond and liability insurance; commercial work needs a commercial endorsement. Search the CCB by name or number before signing. Every roofer we list in full was active on October 23, 2026. Homeowners may reroof their own house, but Bend still requires the permit.
What a new roof costs in Bend
One Bend roofer posts a price: Scott’s Roofing puts asphalt shingle replacements at $5 to $6 per square foot of roof, roughly $10,000–$12,000 for 2,000 sq ft of roof, with metal at two to three times that (checked October 23, 2026). The others quote after a free inspection.

What moves the price
Roof area, not floor area. Scott’s notes a 2,000 sq ft house often has 2,300 sq ft or more of roof once you add overhangs and pitch.
Pitch and cut-up rooflines. Steep roofs need more staging and time; every valley, hip, dormer and skylight adds flashing labor.
Tear-off layers and rot. Multiple old layers and soft decking add cost. Ask for a per-sheet price for replacement sheathing in the contract.
Material. Architectural asphalt is the base; synthetic, metal and tile cost more up front. Scott’s puts metal at 2–3× asphalt.
Ice barrier and underlayment. How far up from the eaves and into valleys the ice barrier runs, and synthetic vs felt underlayment.
Access. Steep driveways, paver drives, landscaping and tight lots slow loading and cleanup.
Permit. The City of Bend reroof permit is $330, usually issued in 3–4 days. Your roofer normally pulls it.
Repair, maintain, or replace?
Age matters, but it shouldn’t decide on its own. Greenlee Roofing says its proposals will tell you if a repair makes more sense than a replacement; ask every roofer for the same honesty.
A repair may make sense when
Damage is in one area, like a wind-torn section
Most shingles still lie flat and hold their granules
One flashing detail, vent boot or skylight is leaking
The roof has years of life left
Replacement becomes more reasonable when
Leaks show up in several unrelated places
Shingles are curling, cracking or bald across the roof
The deck is soft in many spots
Repairs are stacking up, or ventilation and ice barrier problems mean opening big areas anyway
The roofing details Bend homeowners should care about
Most leaks happen where the roof meets something else. A good bid names how each of these is handled.
Step flashing and wall intersections
Where a roof slope meets a wall, each shingle course gets its own step flashing tucked behind the siding’s water barrier. Ask whether it will be replaced or reused.
Kick-out flashing
At the bottom of a roof-to-wall line, a kick-out turns water into the gutter instead of behind the siding. Ask the roofer to point out every spot that needs one.
Chimneys, skylights, vents, and pipe penetrations
Replace aging pipe boots, vent caps, chimney flashing and old skylights during the reroof rather than roofing around them.
Valleys
Valleys carry concentrated snowmelt. Ask how far the ice barrier runs up each valley and whether it’s open metal or woven/closed-cut shingles.
Roof-to-gutter water management
Drip edge, gutter size and downspout discharge decide where meltwater goes. A new roof won’t fix water dumping by the foundation.
Asphalt shingles vs. metal roofing in Bend
Architectural asphalt shingles
The default Bend reroof: lowest up-front cost, easy repairs, Class A over a standard underlayment, and 75% recouped at resale in Medford (Cost vs Value 2025).
Ask for the wind rating and high-wind nailing
Consider impact-rated (Class 4) shingles for hail
Ice barrier at eaves and valleys; Scott’s recommends six feet at the eaves
Check the workmanship warranty, not just the shingle warranty
Metal roofing
Standing seam sheds snow, shrugs off UV and carries a Class A rating over the right assembly. It costs 2–3× asphalt (Scott’s), and recouped 57% in Medford.
Snow guards over doors, decks, walkways and the driveway
Concealed fasteners and room for expansion
Careful detailing at chimneys, skylights and valleys
Where the sliding snow lands matters as much as that it slides

Moss on a Bend roof
Bend is dry, but shaded north slopes under pines can still grow moss where needles hold moisture. Moss doesn’t automatically mean a new roof: clear the debris, trim branches and treat it gently. Don’t pressure-wash asphalt shingles; it strips granules. Ask a roofer or a soft-wash company what your shingle maker allows.
Snow, ice, and attic ventilation
Ice dams are usually a heat-loss and ventilation problem, not a shingle problem. If yours come back every winter, ask about:
Air sealing the attic floor and insulating to R-49 or more (insulation guide)
Balanced intake (soffit) and exhaust (ridge) ventilation
Bath and kitchen fans ducted outside, not into the attic
Ice barrier at the eaves, valleys and low-slope transitions
Snow removal from the eaves with a roof rake or a crew, not a shovel on the shingles
Whether heat cable is treating the symptom or solving it
Wildfire considerations
The roof is the biggest target for embers. On a reroof, ask for a Class A rated assembly, ember-resistant vents, metal drip edge and gutter guards that don’t trap needles, and keep valleys and gutters clear through fire season. Oregon’s 2025 repeal of the statewide wildfire map (SB 83) means rules outside Bend now depend on your local jurisdiction, but Bend’s permit still checks roofing against its wildfire standards. See IBHS research on roofs and wildfire.
Do you need new gutters at the same time?
Not always. Good gutters can be protected and reset. Replace them with the roof if they’re undersized, sagging or leaking at the seams. Deschutes Roofing and Northwest Quality Roofing do gutters in-house. Either way, settle who removes and resets gutters, who adds kick-outs, and who repairs fascia rot found during tear-off. More in our gutter guide.
What a good roofing estimate should tell you
Two bids can total the same and cover different work. Greenlee’s advice: compare line items, not totals.

Questions to ask a Bend roofer
Before you hire
What’s your CCB number? (Then look it up.)
Are the crews your employees or subcontractors?
Who will be my contact during the job?
Will you pull the City of Bend permit?
Can I see photos of what you found on my roof?
Do you handle HOA or Sunriver design approval paperwork?
On the contract
How much ice barrier at the eaves and in the valleys?
What happens, and what does it cost, if you find dry rot?
What does the workmanship warranty cover, and for how long?
Are snow guards included on a metal roof?
What if snow or rain interrupts the tear-off?
When is payment due, and is any deposit capped?
Insurance claims
Hail and wind claims go smoother with photos from the ground and inside, the storm date, and a roofer’s written findings. Scott’s Roofing offers tarps and temporary repairs while a claim is open; Greenlee Roofing will meet your adjuster; Deschutes Roofing helps with claims start to finish. Be wary of out-of-town crews who knock after a storm: check the CCB license, and don’t sign over your insurance proceeds before you’ve read the scope.
Roofing in Bend: FAQ
How much does a new roof cost in Bend, Oregon?
Scott’s Roofing posts $5 to $6 per square foot of roof area for asphalt shingle replacements in Bend, or roughly $10,000 to $12,000 for a 2,000 sq ft roof, and says metal runs two to three times that (checked October 23, 2026). The 2025 Cost vs Value report puts a larger 3,000 sq ft asphalt reroof at $27,786 in Medford, Oregon and $36,391 across the Pacific region. Steep pitch, multiple layers, rot and cut-up rooflines push the price up.
Do I need a permit to replace my roof in Bend?
In most cases, yes. The City of Bend requires a reroof permit, citing its wildfire hazard zone, plus permits when you change roofing material or add sheathing. The permit fee is $330 and usually takes 3 to 4 days. A final inspection is required and can be done by drone if you authorize it. Outside city limits, check with Deschutes County.
Is metal roofing worth it in Bend?
Often, for long-term owners: standing seam sheds snow, handles high-desert UV and can carry a Class A fire rating. It costs about 2 to 3 times as much as asphalt, recoups less at resale (57% in Medford in the 2025 Cost vs Value report vs 75% for asphalt), and needs snow guards wherever sliding snow could hit people, decks or cars.
How much snow can a Bend roof hold?
Buildings permitted in Bend are designed for at least 20 to 25 pounds per square foot of roof snow. The City’s rule of thumb is snow depth in inches × 1.25 = psf, so about 20 inches of snow is 25 psf, and each inch of ice adds about 5.2 psf. If you’re worried about a sagging roof or cracking sounds, get a structural engineer or call the non-emergency line at 541-693-6911 for immediate danger.
Who removes roof snow or ice dams in Bend?
Greenlee Roofing and Deschutes Roofing both list roof snow removal, and Deschutes Roofing lists ice dam removal and prevention. The City of Bend doesn’t advise when to remove roof snow and warns about falls and sliding snow, so hire a crew rather than climbing up yourself.
Does my Bend roof need to be Class A fire rated?
Bend says reroofing materials must meet its wildfire standards. Most asphalt fiberglass shingles, metal and tile roofs reach Class A over the right underlayment; untreated wood shakes do not. Oregon’s statewide wildfire hazard map was repealed in 2025, so rules outside Bend depend on your local jurisdiction and HOA.
What should I do after hail or wind damage?
Photograph damage from the ground and inside the house, note the storm date, and have a licensed roofer inspect and document it. Scott’s Roofing can tarp or make temporary repairs while the claim works through; Greenlee Roofing will meet your adjuster. Then file with your insurer.
How do I check a Bend roofer’s license?
Search the Oregon Construction Contractors Board by name or CCB number and confirm the license is active with a bond and insurance. Every roofer we list in full had an active CCB license on October 23, 2026. A number on a truck or website is not proof.
How long does a roof replacement take?
Most homes take one to three days on the roof, according to Deschutes Roofing; Scott’s Roofing says tear-off to watertight underlayment usually takes four to eight hours. Weather and the permit add lead time, and winter snow can push schedules.
Can I put a new roof over my old one?
Sometimes, but Bend’s Re-Roof Worksheet asks how many layers exist, and most roofers in snow country tear off so they can inspect the deck and install ice barrier at the eaves, which is required whenever sheathing is exposed. Ask each bidder to explain their recommendation.
Do I need HOA or Sunriver approval for a new roof?
Often. Scott’s Roofing notes Sunriver Owners Association design rules on material and color, and many Bend subdivisions have similar rules. Historic district properties in Bend need a historic review for changes other than asphalt shingle replacement.
Bottom line
Get two or three line-item bids from licensed Bend roofers, check each CCB number, and compare the ice barrier, flashing, ventilation and rot terms, not just the total. Plan for snow and embers: a Class A assembly, enough ice barrier and an attic that doesn’t melt the snow from below.
Roofer details come from each company’s own website (linked on its card). CCB licenses were checked against Oregon’s active-license data on October 23, 2026. Permit rules and fees change, so confirm with the City of Bend before you start.
