What roofs face in Montana

  • Snow & ice dams
  • Hail
  • Wildfire
  • High wind & severe storms

Snow load

Mountain towns see heavy snow loads; metal roofs, snow guards and good ventilation are common choices.

Hail in eastern Montana

Billings and the eastern plains see summer hail that drives insurance claims.

Wildfire

Homes near forested land benefit from Class A roofing and ember-resistant vents.

Chinook winds and temperature swings

East of the Rockies, chinook winds can raise temperatures dramatically within hours, melting snow quickly and refreezing it at night. Those swings stress flashing, sealants and gutters, and they can drive water under shingles where ice has built up.

Rural and ranch buildings

Many Montana properties include barns, shops and outbuildings with exposed-fastener metal roofs. Re-tightening or replacing screws and washers, and checking panel laps after windstorms, keeps them watertight.

Licensing, permits and contracts in Montana

Montana requires construction contractors with employees to register with the Department of Labor and Industry. Permits depend on the city or county.
