Snow Retention
On Point Contracting is THE Preferred Installer for Rocky Mountain Snow Guards in Denver and Summit County
If you’ve never considered snow guards, you’re not alone. Many homeowners don’t know how much risk they might be shouldering without snow guards, and how much better their house could look after a big snow with them!
But more and more home and business owners are realizing the advantages of preventing the dangerous avalanching of snow from their rooftops to protect property and keep their families and customers safe. Roof snow guards and snow fences are designed to help keep snow on your roof, helping to prevent sudden, potentially dangerous releases of snow and ice. These specially-designed metal devices are mounted directly to the roof structure, forming barriers and adding extra friction to keep snow in place until it can safely melt and dissipate.
On Point Contracting is THE preferred installer of Rocky Mountain Snow Guards in Denver and Summit County. And we believe Rocky Mountain Snow Guards are the top of the line when it comes to rooftop snow management systems.
What are snow guards?
Snow guards go by many names: snow brakes, ice guards, snow stoppers, snow catchers, snow shields, snow cleats, snow jacks, snow stops, etc... so many names for products with the same goal: preventing catastrophic snow slides from roofs.
Snow Guards provide durable, reliable snow retention for most roof types. Rocky Mountain Snow Guards sells ONLY strong, long-lasting metal snow guards, made right here in the USA.
When we install these systems, the guards are arranged in a pattern designed to appropriately handle the snow retention needs of your specific roof type, which is based on many factors including snow load for the area and roof pitch.
Advantages of Snow Retention Systems from Rocky Mountain Snow Guards
Prevent dangerous "avalanching" of snow & ice
There have been too many stories in recent years about large bulks of snow falling from roofs and damaging property or, worse yet, injuring people. Composite materials like DaVinci Roofscapes are a great choice for durability and a beautiful look, but snow does slide from these composite materials more easily.
Prevent ice "damming" build-up at roof's edge
Ice dams occur when heavy snow buildup melts during the day and then refreezes when temperatures drop overnight.
After several days of melt/freeze cycles, it's common for the melted water and ice to work up under the shingles until water enters the attic and eventually does damage. In cases where the ice dam goes unnoticed for an extended period of time, it can do significant damage to your home.
Prevent damage to gutters & eaves
Cascading snow can also cause damage to your gutters and eaves. These repairs can be costly, and we would like to help you avoid them!
