50 Year Warranty
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.
“Every product we sell is warranted for 50 years against defects in material and workmanship in normal winter weather conditions,” said Brian Cross, Sales and Marketing Manager with Rocky Mountain Snow Guards in Colorado. “This includes rust or other degradation of the metal itself which could result in structural product failure. Both the extensiveness and time length of the warranty is uncommon in our industry.”
Cross relates that, as with any product, the snow retention system items must be installed per manufacturer instructions to be protected by the warranty.
“Our mission is to provide a permanent solution for snow release on roofs,” said Cross. “This means we’re providing a product we trust will not fail. It also means we encourage roofing contractors to take advantage of the free snow retention layout services offered by Rocky Mountain Snow Guards.”
The Quote Department at Rocky Mountain Snow Guards routinely creates about 30 free project quotes a day. Architects, contractors, and homeowners send in blueprints or reports from EagleView™, RoofScope®, and Hover®. The customized snow retention plans, product lists, and installation instructions are created for free for each project. Products are then shipped free to each jobsite within the 48 contiguous United States.
“When you talk to the people at Rocky Mountain Snow Guards, you realize that what they actually do is engineer a snow retention system that is specifically designed for your project,” said Joe Westra, Co-Owner of Summit Point Roofing Company out of Grand Rapids, Michigan. “They take into account things such as the snow load for your region, pitch, roofing material, and a variety of other factors when putting together an architectural plan. Then they send you detailed quantities, installation instructions, and diagrams. Once you have all of that, installing the snow retention system is as simple as following their instructions.”
