Roofing Contractors Speak Out: Why They Rely on FREE Layout and Quote Services at Rocky Mountain Snow Guards

There’s an old saying, “Free is Good.” But in actuality, free is only good when what’s being offered for free is really good.

For example, free beat-up used asphalt shingles or hail-dented metal panels? No thanks. But, what about a free layout and quote service run by professionals who can take your roof specifications and tell you the exact and perfect layout for a snow retention system. That’s really good! And that’s what the experts at Rocky Mountain Snow Guards offer.

“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,” says Joe Westra, co-owner of Summit Point Roofing Co., out of Ada, 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 a snow retention plan.

“They then 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. We lean on them to provide us with a layout that is dependent on the geographical location, type of roof, pitch and size of each facet.”

Across the country in Idaho, roofing contractor Clayton Murray has also caught on to the ease of the service from the snow retention company. “I use the free layout and quote service from Rocky Mountain Snow Guards as often as I can,” says Murray, owner of Immaculate Roofing LLC in Rigby, Idaho. “I want to be sure that I am giving my customers exactly what they need to make their system work the best that it can.

“They make the whole process easy. I know I’ll get the best possible product and service that’s available while trying to get my customers taken care of.”

Listening to the experts

While roofing installation may be the specialty of most roofers across the country, determining the correct placement for snow retention products (and which products to use) doesn’t always reach that same confidence level for roofers.

“On any project that has more than two slopes, or a pitch factor higher than 4/12, we always ask for a free snow retention plan from RMSG,” says Tanner Goldsberry, service technician manager with Gold Roofing, Inc. out of Loveland, Colorado. “Their expertise is unmatched. We understand the importance of a watertight roofing system, but we’ll always leave the snow retention plan to the pros.”

Nick Hildebrand, Project Manager at Weather-Tite Exteriors in Rapid City, South Dakota, echoes those thoughts. “We always rely on RMSG to recommend the snow retention products that will work the best with our projects,” says Hildebrand. “In the case of St. Joseph Catholic Church it was the Yeti 18 in a Dark Bronze finish to complement the roof.

“These snow guards were installed over the entire church roof to help prevent avalanching of melting snows on the people and property. The Yeti products were easy to work with and are made with high quality materials.”

Invaluable service

So, is “free” just good because it doesn’t cost anything? No, says experienced roofer Austin Barnhardt. It’s about the quality of the service being provided. A service that is essential to complement the roofing projects his company completes every week of the year.

“The free layout service at Rocky Mountain Snow Guards is vital when dealing with both architects and property owners,” says Barnhardt, vice president of Quality Roofing & Sheet Metal in Bozeman, Montana. “It gives them the detailed information they need and makes the process seamless. The whole staff at RMSG is great to work with every time we need them.”

“The ability to have the experienced team at RMSG do the layouts and calculations for us is invaluable. The entire team there is really supportive and can answer any questions we have at any time.

“Our team at Quality Roofing depends on Rocky Mountain Snow Guards quite a bit for their design and suggested layouts on virtually every metal roofing job we install.”

Free really IS good

Finally, consider that “free” helps more than your bottom line. When offered by qualified experts, free snow retention services help both your peace of mind and customer satisfaction.

“We use the free layout and quote service EVERY time we have the need for snow retention on a project,” according to Alexander Rose, project manager with Excel Roofing in Englewood, Colorado. “Rocky Mountain Snow Guards ensures we are installing the best option and always has amazing customer service with us and our clients.”

“Every time I put a snow retention plan together for a client I run it by Rocky Mountain Snow Guards,” says Nick Pointek, owner of On Point Contracting in Littleton, Colorado. “They tell me the right product for the roof, slope, and snow loads of the area. I get the right stuff the first time so I can seal the deal and maintain my reputation. And, I don’t have to sweat about what I’m recommending to my clients.”

“We couldn’t agree more,” says Marco Lujan, service director with Revelation Roofing LLC out of Steamboat Springs, Colorado. “We use the free snow retention plan services from Rocky Mountain Snow Guards every time, for every project. It brings peace of mind to us and our installers knowing that we install snow retention systems on our customers' roofs, we're following expert specifications from Rocky Mountain Snow Guards.”
