Metal roofs built for mountain weather: the overview

Metal is a smart choice along the Front Range and in foothill neighborhoods where snow load, hail and wildfire risk all matter. A standing seam roof has no exposed fasteners, sheds snow quickly and carries a Class A fire rating.

We roll-form 24-gauge panels on site to your exact lengths, install high-temperature underlayment beneath, and add snow guards over entries, decks and walkways so sliding snow is not a hazard.

Stone-coated steel is also available if you want the look of shake or tile with the toughness of metal.

  • 50+ year expected lifespan
  • Class 4 hail and Class A fire ratings available
  • Sheds snow and reduces ice dam risk
  • Reflective finishes help summer cooling

What is included with metal roofing

Every item below is part of the standard scope, listed on your written quote.

  • On-site roll forming

    Panels cut to exact length, no seams mid-slope.

  • High-temp underlayment

    Rated for the heat that builds under metal panels.

How the process works

What to expect from first call to finished metal roofing.

  1. Design consult

    Panel profile, gauge and color samples at your kitchen table.

  2. Measure and order

    Laser measurements and coil ordered in your color.

  3. Install

    Typically 3 to 5 days depending on roof complexity.

  4. Final walkthrough

    Snow guard placement and gutter check together.

What moves the price

Your quote is built from these factors. Ask us to walk through any of them.

  • Panel type

    Standing seam costs more than stone-coated or exposed fastener.

  • Gauge

    24-gauge is our standard; 22-gauge for extreme exposure.

  • Roof complexity

    Valleys, dormers and hips add trim and labor.

  • Snow retention

    Snow guard runs priced per linear foot.

Over solid decking and underlayment, a metal roof is about as quiet as shingles. The loud metal roofs you remember are usually on open-framed barns.

No. Metal does not increase the chance of a strike, and it is non-combustible if one occurs.

Sometimes, but we prefer a tear-off so we can inspect the deck and keep the warranty simple.
