The contest recognizes exceptional commercial and residential snow retention projects each year from across the nation. This winning project features Blizzard Heavy Duty III with S-5!® U clamps aluminum 3-pipe snow fence systems on nine luxury ski resort mountain condos.
"Copper holds a special place in many of these mountain towns since it ties into the mining heritage of these places," says Will Bodmer, project manager of Vail Valley with Turner Morris Commercial Roofing. "As the natural patina of the roof settles into a dark bronze, the powder coated dark bronze snow retention system we installed will eventually complement the roof panels perfectly.
"As we always do, our company requested the layout and product suggestions for this project from the free service offered by Rocky Mountain Snow Guards. We've worked with them since 2010 and appreciate their speedy and detailed quoting and estimating processes. The quality of their products has proven effective for our projects. And, over the years, their service-oriented team has adapted to the market in step with our service-based approach to providing premium roof installations."
Superior Roofing Work
For the Tyrolean Condos project, Mountain Stream Management was intimately involved in overseeing the roofing replacement project.
"The Tyrolean residents are extremely pleased with the outcome of this project and the work done by Turner Morris," according to Patrick Ganley, Association Manager for the company. "Their work was 10 out of 10. Crews were professional, skilled, and paid attention to detail. Everyone's pleased that copper was chosen to enhance the aesthetics of the building and to match the existing copper trim. We're especially pleased with our choice of Turner Morris to handle this project."
According to Bodmer, Turner Morris decided to submit the project for the competition because of the extreme details involved in the snow retention system. The complex and intricate roof planes were a result of alterations to the original roof design over the decades that ultimately required mixed roof systems, roof ice melt, snow retention, and a generally customized installation.
"Our mountain division works hard to accomplish nuanced and intricate roofs at a high level of quality," says Bodmer. we specialize in providing those details and unique roofs that go above and beyond a basic roof.
"We work incredibly hard to provide our customers with the highest quality roofs and products. It feels great to be a repeat winner of this award. It contributes to our belief that doing work right the first time pays off.
"We believe that winning this award consecutively demonstrates the great relationship Turner Morris has with Rocky Mountain Snow Guards. Together, our partnership creates the best winter roofing systems for our customers."
Turner Morris Commercial Roofing is the recipient of a $2,000 cash prize as the winner of the Commercial Project category for the Grand Prize in this year's competition. Overall, $10,000 in prizes were awarded to roofing contractors.
