Red Feather Lakes is a mountain community where the lots are big, the pines are thick, and the snow stays put. Most homes here are cabins and full-time residences with steep pitches, metal roofs, and a serious need for snow retention. If you live off County Road 74E or near Dowdy Lake, you already know that a roof has to handle more than just rain.
Homeowners in 80545 call Fort Collins Metal Roofing because we understand mountain roofs. We have been working in Larimer County since 2009, and we know the difference between a cabin that needs screw replacement and a full standing seam retrofit. When the wind rips a panel off or ice dams back up at the eaves, you need someone who can get there and fix it right.
Metal Roofing in Red Feather Lakes (80545)
Red Feather Lakes sits at about 8,000 feet, and that changes everything. The ground is rocky, the access can be tight, and the snow load is real. Many properties here are accessed by gravel roads that can be soft in spring, so we plan deliveries and equipment accordingly. Cabins often have simple gable roofs with corrugated panels, but we also see older shingle roofs that are due for a metal retrofit. The freeze-thaw cycles are brutal on fasteners and flashing, and the intense sun at this elevation breaks down sealants faster than most homeowners expect.
We have been serving Red Feather Lakes and the surrounding Fort Collins area since 2009. Our crews are licensed and insured, and we are a Metal Roofing Alliance Member. We handle everything from corrugated and ribbed panel roofing to snow guards and ice protection, and we know how to work with the local building department to make sure your project is permitted correctly.

How a Job Works in Red Feather Lakes
Step 1: You call us at (970) 545-8912 or fill out our contact form. We schedule a free on-site assessment, and we come out to Red Feather Lakes to look at your roof, your access, and your drainage. We will give you a written estimate and talk through options like panel profiles, snow guards, and whether a retrofit over existing shingles makes sense.
Step 2: Once you approve the estimate, we pull the necessary permits and schedule the work. In Red Feather Lakes, that often means coordinating with the Larimer County building department, and we handle that for you. If your property has a steep driveway or limited turnaround space, we plan for that so materials and crews can get in and out without damaging your lot. We also respect HOA rules and historic district guidelines if they apply.
Step 3: When the job is done, we clean up thoroughly. We magnet-sweep for nails, haul away old materials, and do a final walkthrough with you to make sure you are satisfied. We leave your property clean and your roof ready for the next mountain storm.
Pricing for metal roofing in Red Feather Lakes depends on the size and pitch of your roof, the condition of the existing decking, access, and the type of metal you choose.
