“Our architect drew a thin copper fascia and the studio had a mockup on the table before we signed. It went on exactly as drawn.”
Charles R.Architect, Wilson
Design-build roofing, Jackson Hole
Copper, zinc and slate, built for snow country.
We design, detail and install roofs on mountain homes, and bid every one from the drawings. Nothing goes up until the details are on paper.
- Written bids only
- Insured: certificate on request
What we build with
Three materials we put on a mountain roof
Each one outlasts the house's first owner. We pick by pitch, snow load and how you want the roof to look in thirty years, not in the brochure.
Copper
Starts bright, turns brown, then blue-green. The patina is the finish.
Copper roofsWarm now, deepening for decades
Flat-lock, standing seam, gutters and details
Soldered or mechanically seamed
Zinc
Quiet blue-gray that builds its own protective layer. A clean line on a steep roof.
Zinc and standing seamCool, matte, no two panels quite alike
Standing seam on a ventilated deck
Mechanically seamed, formed on site
Slate
Cut stone laid course by course. Heavy, so the framing is checked before we order.
Slate roofsReads best on stone and timber
Copper valleys and flashings
Matched and salvaged for repairs
Design-build
One team from the drawing to the ridge cap
Architects send us plans. Owners send us a vision and a builder. We turn either into a roof that sheds snow where you want it and keeps its lines.
Details before the bid
Valleys, eaves, penetrations and snow retention are drawn, not assumed.
Snow that goes where you decide
Guards and rails placed over entries, decks and the drive.
A deck that breathes
Ventilation and an ice barrier planned with the insulation, so ice stays off the eaves.
Samples for design review
Panels and slate for your architect or review board to hold.
From first call to walk-through
Six steps, in the order we take them
- 01
Step 1: Site visit
We walk the ground, the roof and the attic, or the framing if the house isn't built yet.

Step 2: Drawings and samples
Details on paper, with material samples for you and your architect.
- 03
Step 3: A written bid
Itemized, with the materials, the allowances and what is not included.
- 04
Step 4: Schedule around the snow
We book the build window against the snowmelt and your builder's dates.
- 05
Step 5: Install
One lead on site all day. Metal formed and seamed on the property.
- 06
Step 6: Walk-through
Snow guards, flashings and gutters checked with you, and the paperwork handed over.

What clients say about the work
“We only see the house in winter and holidays. They sent photos of each stage and the snow guards over the front steps were already in.”
Jenna H.Second-home owner, Teton Village
“They matched our old slate from a salvage lot and laid it course by course. You cannot find the repair from the driveway.”
Anthony K.Homeowner, Hoback Junction

Questions
Before you ask for a bid
Are you insured?
Yes. We carry general liability insurance and workers' compensation through the Wyoming state program. Ask for the certificate and we will send it before you sign. The registration is in the top bar of every page.
When do I get a price?
In writing, after the site visit and the drawings. The bid is itemized and says what is and is not included. We do not give prices by phone, because the roof decides them.
Can you work from my architect's drawings?
Yes, and most jobs start that way. We review the roof details, mark what needs to change for snow and ventilation, and send questions back before we bid.
Will a metal roof be loud in rain or hail?
Not on a solid deck with the right underlayment. We build the roof assembly to quiet it, and we say what we recommend in the bid.
How do you keep snow off the entry?
With snow guards or rails placed where the snow would land, drawn on the plan before the order. You choose which slopes shed and which hold.
Do you handle storm or snow damage?
We inspect, photograph and write an itemized bid for repairs. You decide whether to file with your insurer, and any deductible is yours. We are not public adjusters.
Do I need a permit?
Usually, and your town or county building office decides. We prepare the permit documents and handle the paperwork for work we do.
Can I cancel after I sign?
If you sign at home, you may have three business days to cancel. In many states you can also cancel after your insurer denies a claim. Your contract states the terms.
