At 22" of rain per year, Flagstaff is a moderate climate for roofing — not dry enough that UV is the dominant concern, not wet enough that moss and algae are a constant fight, so standard maintenance intervals generally apply. The swing between a 32°F average low and 61°F average high here (a 29-degree daily range) puts real thermal expansion and contraction stress on roofing materials and fasteners over time, which can accelerate wear at seams and flashing. Average lows down to 32°F bring real freeze-thaw risk here, and ice dams become a genuine concern where snow accumulates and refreezes at the eaves — proper attic ventilation and insulation matter as much as the roofing material itself.
With winter lows this cold in Flagstaff, scheduling matters more than in milder climates — most asphalt shingles need temperatures above roughly 40°F to seal properly, so winter installations carry real risk of incomplete sealing. Contractors here generally have a defined installation season; it's worth asking what months they consider reliable before booking.
Metal roofing sheds snow more effectively than asphalt or tile in Flagstaff's cold winters, and tile in particular carries real freeze-thaw cracking risk in climates this cold.
Yes — Arizona requires roofing contractors to hold a valid license through Arizona Registrar of Contractors. Always verify a contractor's license status directly with Arizona Registrar of Contractors before hiring, not just by taking their word for it.

Flagstaff averages 22 inches of rain per year, with average temperatures ranging from 32°F to 61°F. Homeowners here should factor local weather patterns into material choice and maintenance timing — a contractor familiar with the area can advise on what performs best given these conditions.
