Metal Roofing & Siding

Metal roofing and metal siding have become the default exterior for serious mountain properties — and for good reason. Across Aspen, Snowmass, Basalt, Carbondale, and Glenwood Springs, homeowners are moving to metal because of the three things that matter most in the Roaring Fork Valley: wildfire resistance, insurance qualification, and 50+ year service life in heavy snow and ice.

Fire prevention & insurance benefits

Rocky Mountain Exteriors installs Class-A fire-rated metal roof and siding systems that meet the most aggressive wildfire mitigation standards in Colorado. As insurance carriers tighten coverage and renewals across the Western Slope, a metal exterior is increasingly the difference between an insurable home and an uninsurable one. We work directly with insurance inspectors, builders, and homeowners to spec assemblies that hold up to the standard.

Fabricated in our Glenwood Springs metal shop

Unlike most roofers, every panel, flashing, gutter, snow guard, and accessory on your project can be fabricated in our own metal shop — usually with same-day turnaround. That means tighter details, faster builds, and the ability to do real copper, brass, and zinc work for the high-end Aspen and Snowmass market.

Profiles & materials

Standing seam, snap-lock, mechanical-lock, exposed-fastener panel, metal shingle, and architectural flat-lock — in steel, aluminum, copper, brass, and zinc. We'll match the architect's palette or help spec a system from scratch.
