Services
Roof Installation
We install advanced roofing systems tailored for Tahoe/Reno's extreme weather. Our services include hidden-fastener metal panels, composition shingles, and slate roofing with expected lifespans up to 30 years. Each installation includes snow load calculations and ice dam prevention measures. Our in-house fabrication ensures perfect component matching for both new constructions and re-roofing projects.
Roof Repairs
Emergency and scheduled repairs for all roof types damaged by snow, ice, or storms. Our team addresses leaks, structural damage, and wear issues while implementing preventive solutions. We prioritize rapid response times and temporary protection measures before permanent fixes. Services include fallen debris cleanup and reinforcement against future weather events.
Sheet Metal Fabrication
Custom metal component manufacturing using state-of-the-art equipment. We create chimney caps, snow splitters, and decorative elements from durable materials. Our fabrication shop supports both functional requirements and aesthetic customization for residential and commercial properties. All components match existing roof specifications for seamless integration.
Waterproofing
Comprehensive waterproofing systems prevent moisture intrusion and mold growth. Services include installing Grace Ice & Water Shield, 30lbs. felt paper, and custom edge trim designed for heavy snow loads. We focus on vulnerable areas like valleys, chimneys, and roof-wall intersections to ensure complete water resistance.
Snow Retention Systems
Specialized systems prevent dangerous snow and ice accumulation. We install heat cables, snow guards, and mechanical removal solutions tailored to roof type and exposure. Our engineers calculate optimal placement based on historical snowfall data and structural capacity to maintain safety while preserving roof integrity.
