Snow breaks

Snow breaks for metal roofs in the Billings, MT area

Snow breaks are highly recommended on homes and buildings with metal roofs. Snow and ice back up against the snow break, hardening and creating a dam that stops it avalanching and ripping your rain gutters off.

Large amounts of snow sliding off your metal roof? We can help.

By decreasing the amount of snow that slides off each time, a snow break helps with problems that cost money and put people at risk. Installing your rain gutters with wrap straps and adding a snow break offers extra protection and a longer life for your gutters.

Snow breaks help prevent

Not all snow breaks are created equal

Ask before you buy. To save money, some installers use left over material for snow breaks. Other materials can be too weak and are often not an exact match to your roofing. Some installers add two rows to make up for weak material, which leaves a poor look on your roof.

The snow breaks we install are

  • Strong and extremely rigid, with galvanized steel
  • Available in colors to match your roofing
  • Special ordered for your home
  • Installed in continuous rows, with overlapping seams, for durability
