Roofing

Roof types we install

The right roof for a home in Snowmass is not automatically the right roof for one in Silt. Here is how the options compare.

Every material trades cost against lifespan, weight, fire rating, and looks. We will walk your roof and tell you which of these actually fits your home, your budget, and your building department, then explain why.

Most common

Architectural asphalt

The workhorse. Modern architectural shingles carry Class A fire ratings and strong wind warranties at a price most budgets can meet. The right starting point for a lot of valley homes.

Longest life

Metal and standing seam

Sheds snow, laughs at UV, and lasts decades. Standing seam is the premium mountain look and one of the best performers for shedding heavy snow load cleanly. We install factory formed panels for a crisp, durable finish.

Shake look, code safe

Synthetic shake and slate

Composite products like DaVinci, CeDUR, and Brava give you the look of wood shake or slate with a Class A fire rating and none of the maintenance. The compliant way to keep a shake aesthetic.

Flat and low slope

Low slope membrane

For flat and low pitch sections, modern membrane systems seal tight and hold up to standing snow. Common on modern mountain architecture and commercial buildings.

Not sure which is right? That is the normal starting point. We will look at your pitch, your exposure, your neighborhood, and your budget, and give you a clear recommendation instead of a catalog.
