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.

Our services in Red Feather Lakes

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. As a ballpark, corrugated and ribbed panel roofing starts at $5.50 per square foot, standing seam starts at $10 per square foot, and a full replacement starts at $9 per square foot. Metal roof repair starts at $450, and screw replacement and re-fastening starts at $750. Snow guards and ice protection start at $1,200, which is a common add-on for mountain homes. We offer free estimates, so call (970) 545-8912 to get a number for your specific roof.

My cabin near Dowdy Lake has ice dams every winter. Can a metal roof help with that?
Yes. Metal roofs shed snow better than asphalt, but ice dams can still form at the eaves if attic insulation and ventilation are not right. We often install snow guards and ice protection to keep snow from sliding off in a dangerous sheet and to reduce ice buildup. We will also check your flashing and underlayment to make sure water cannot back up under the panels.
A storm just blew some panels loose on my roof in Red Feather Lakes. How fast can you get out?
We prioritize storm and wind damage calls in the Red Feather Lakes area. Call us at (970) 545-8912 and we will schedule an inspection as soon as possible, often within a day or two depending on weather and access. We can tarp or secure the roof temporarily if needed and then give you a written repair estimate.
What does a typical metal roof replacement cost for a cabin in 80545?
Most cabin roofs in Red Feather Lakes fall in the range of $9 to $14 per square foot for a full replacement, depending on the panel type, roof complexity, and whether we need to remove existing shingles. A simple corrugated panel roof on a small cabin might start around $5.50 per square foot for materials and installation. We give free estimates so you get a real number for your roof.
Do I need a permit to replace my roof in Red Feather Lakes?
Roofing permits are commonly required for a full replacement or re-roof in Larimer County, and requirements can vary. We always recommend checking with the local building department before starting work. You can find contact information and general county resources on the official Red Feather Lakes website at https://www.larimer.gov. We handle the permit application and inspections for you as part of the job.
My neighbor's tree hangs over my roof. What are the rules about trimming branches in Red Feather Lakes?
In Colorado, you generally have the right to trim branches that overhang your property line, but you should not damage the tree or trespass to do it. If a branch is dead or poses a risk, it is best to talk with your neighbor first. For HOA communities in Red Feather Lakes, check your covenants for any additional landscaping rules. We can remove branches that interfere with roof work, but we are not arborists.
Are you fully insured for work at my Red Feather Lakes property?
Yes. We carry general liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage for all our crews. We are happy to provide a certificate of insurance before we start work so you have peace of mind.
What maintenance does a metal roof need in Red Feather Lakes?
Metal roofs are low maintenance, but in the mountains you should inspect fasteners and sealant every few years, especially after heavy snow or wind. Clear debris from valleys and gutters, and check snow guards before winter. We offer free roof inspections and can replace screws or re-seal flashing to keep your roof watertight.
