Like a shiny new penny, a copper roof sparkles. During the first years on a home or commercial project, copper roofing makes a glistening, stunning statement. Then, as it ages and patinas, that declaration becomes richer.
Homeowners have enough chores to worry about without being concerned about maintaining the snow retention systems on their roofs. That's why we provide a "No-Maintenance Guarantee" on our snow guards and fence-style snow retention systems.
Imagine the masses of snow and ice that metal snow guards, fences and bars repeatedly hold back year after year on homes and commercial projects. Now, consider a no-callback situation and a 50-year warranty making life easier for both the property owner and roofing contractor. That's the reality of selecting snow retention systems from Rocky Mountain Snow Guards.
Half a million dollars! That's how much RMSG customers saved in shipping costs of snow guards and other snow retention systems in 2023 due to our free shipping in the 48 contiguous United States.
"We're dedicated to doing the most we can to help our contractors' profitability," says RMSG president, Lars Walberg. "The last thing they need is an unexpected freight charge on top of the cost of the products."
Walberg estimates that the company shipped 10,000+ packages last year via ground transportation. Product is shipped one-day in the state of Colorado and two- to three-days in the region. Cross country the shipping time is four- to five-days. Many of these orders are so large they require a forklift to offload and ship via LTL freight.
Rocky Mountain Snow Guards is a close partner with
S-5! Metal Roof Attachments. S-5! is internationally known as the undisputed leader in clamps to attach snow retention to standing seam roofs. S-5! has developed and tested their clamps on virtually every type of standing seam metal roof available.
"We can take an architect's blueprints, an aerial takeoff or even a hand sketched drawing and create a professional design for snow retention on a structure," says Dylan Quirk, Lead Design and Quote Specialist.
These professional quotes and layouts help educate customers on why and where snow retention systems are needed.
In the Nutcracker's "March of the Toy Soldiers," legions of well-organized army members stand side-by-side to aid the Nutcracker in his battle with the King of the Mice. With similar precision, snow guards installed in a "soldier row" pattern are adept at uniting to encourage snow retention on roofs.
Yearly snows avalanching off structures in Colorado highlight the need for snow retention systems on buildings.
Two major accidents in Colorado in March of 2023 and 2024 illustrate the importance of including snow guards, bars or fences on homes and commercial properties in areas where snowfall can be quite intense.
