We supplied standing seam finished steel panels in a striking low-gloss black for a custom curved roof on a guest house in Truckee, CA, and wow, what a project! The panels were manufactured on site so that the curve of the panel matched precisely the gentle arch framed by the builder, and here's the feedback we got from the architect on the job:

"With a curving roof structure and 240 pound per square foot snow loads, we knew that the roofing for our Lunar Vista Guest House was not a candidate for any run of the mill variety. The climate in the Truckee, North Tahoe region is as brutal as it gets and the 600+ inches recorded in the winter of 2010 was certainly eye opening. We were careful in researching a roof system with all the right components and features only to be told “no thanks, we just can’t take that kind of risk” by supplier after supplier. With the owner and contractor wondering how their architect could have gotten them into this roofing pickle, I turned to the internet for help. That is where I found Chris with the Metal Roof Network. Not only were they based within an hour’s drive of the project, they were quick to reassure me that complex roofing is their specialty and their team of experts would rise to our challenge and design a system to meet our aesthetic and performance expectations. In short order, we had a workable solution, a beautiful roof, and a warranty. I’d recommend the Metal Roof Network to anyone.
