Snow happens. Slides shouldn’t!

---

 Without a snow retention system, snow and ice can slide off your roof suddenly and unpredictably — especially on metal roofs, where smooth surfaces and temperature changes cause the snowpack to release all at once.

When that happens, you get what’s often called a “roof avalanche.”
That mass of snow and ice can:

• Rip gutters, vents, and flashing clean off the roof 
• Damage shingles or panels as it slides 
• Destroy landscaping, decks, or railings below
• Crush vehicles, equipment, or outdoor furniture 
• Injure anyone walking under the eaves
• Lead to costly repairs or liability issues 

Beyond the obvious damage, uncontrolled snow slides can also stress the roof structure unevenly, increasing long-term wear and risk of leaks or deformation.

 The solution is simple — control the snow before it controls you.

Installing a snow retention system (also called snow guards or snow rails) keeps snow and ice securely in place on your roof, allowing it to melt and drain gradually rather than sliding off in dangerous sheets.

These systems work by:

• Breaking up the snowpack so it releases evenly 
• Holding the weight in place to prevent sudden avalanches
• Protecting gutters, walkways, decks, and people below
• Maintaining roof integrity and extending its lifespan
   

Whether you choose individual snow guards or continuous snow fence-style systems, the goal is the same — safety, protection, and peace of mind all winter long.
