Snow stop for roof

You are looking for a company to install a snow stop for roofs. You are in the right place!

The risk of snowfall is higher with a sloped roof. It is important to protect yourself from them. Stopping the snow is precisely an effective solution to avoid this type of incident. Find out how this device works.

What is a snow stop?

A snow stop is a barrier that prevents snow from falling from your roof. It can be made of metal or wood, and comes in several forms.

Rail or ladder barriers

This model is installed all around the lower part of the roof. It is not very discreet, but it holds snow effectively. In fact, it is the recommended option for public buildings. For the aesthetic side, you can always repaint it to match the style of your exterior.

Hooks and spouts

These models combine discretion and practicality. They are small hooks that can be installed over the entire surface of the roof to hold snow. They are usually available in multiple colors. On the other hand, installing them is laborious. You have to put them one by one. Also, their locations should not leave any voids through which the mass of snow could escape.

What is the point of installing a snow stop?

Imagine that a mass of snow coming from your roof falls on a passer-by. Injuries can be serious. He may even have sequelae for the rest of his life. It can also cause significant material damage. Barriers are used to prevent these types of inconveniences.

How do I choose a snow stop?

There are several criteria to take into account to find the snow stop model that is right for you.

  • The frequency and duration of snowfall in your area
  • The material from which your roof is made
  • The aesthetic side
  • Your budget

The best would be to consult a professional to advise you.

Who should install the snow stop?

The most adventurous try to install the snow stop on their roof themselves. Some succeed, but not everyone. For our part, we always recommend that you hire a professional for this type of intervention. We tell you why:

  • It is a work at height. In addition, the roof is sloped. The risk of falling is therefore high.
  • The ideal location must be found to ensure the maximum effectiveness of the barriers. This is all the more important if you opt for hooks.
  • There is a high risk of damaging the roof if you don't apply the right techniques.
