Tell us about the geography your company installs roofing in and what kind of snow retention systems are needed for your customers.

We install roofing in areas that experience significant winter weather, including snow accumulation and freeze-thaw cycles. Because of this, snow retention systems are critical to prevent sudden snow slides that can damage property, landscaping or pose safety risks. Our customers often need systems designed to handle heavy snow loads while still maintaining the integrity and appearance of the roof.

What type of roofing material do you tend to install most, and what’s your favorite “go-to” snow retention product that you use repeatedly with that material?

Our team most commonly installs metal roofs, and our go-to snow retention solutions are systems that are engineered specifically for that material. We prefer products that are easy to install, well-tested and designed to distribute snow loads evenly across the roof for long-term performance.

How often do you use the free snow retention plan services from Rocky Mountain Snow Guards when working on a roofing project? Why are you using this service?

We use the free snow retention plan services whenever a project requires engineered snow management. The service from Rocky Mountain Snow Guards helps ensure the system is properly designed for the specific roof layout, pitch and local snow loads, which gives us confidence that the installation will perform as intended and meet best practices.

What’s the most challenging, interesting or successful roofing project you’ve done where a snow retention system was involved?

One of the most successful projects involves a mountainous cabin roof with a steep pitch and heavy snow exposure, where proper snow retention was essential to protect entryways and walkways below. Coordinating the layout and installation of the system alongside the roofing material required careful planning. However, the end result was both functional and visually clean.
