Metal Roof Snow Removal in Montreal

Metal Roof Snow Removal Around Montreal

Metal roofs are built to shed snow, but that is exactly what makes them dangerous in a Quebec winter: a slab can hang on for days, then let go all at once onto an entrance, a deck or a parked car. Metal roof snow removal around Montreal is about controlling where that snow goes and taking the load off low-pitch sections and outbuildings before they are overloaded. Roof Snow Bros clears steel roofs on houses, chalets, barns and garages, from the West Island to Vaudreuil-Soulanges.

Our Process

Risk check: we find where snow is likely to release, which could be over doors, walkways, decks or driveways, and set up a safety zone below.
Controlled release: the crew brings snow down in sections from the top, so nothing slides uncontrolled.
Plastic tools only: no metal edges touch the panels, and a thin snow layer protects the finish.
Ice handling: ice at the eaves, around vents and behind snow guards is released with low-pressure steam.
Clean-up below: entrances, stairs and paths are cleared of the snow we bring down.

Metal Roofs We Clear

Standing-seam and corrugated steel roofs on houses and chalets

When to Call Us

Snow has stayed on a low-pitch section or behind snow guards for several days
A slab is overhanging the eave above a door, a deck or a driveway
Large accumulation sits on a barn, garage or outbuilding with a wide span
Ice has built up at the eaves or around vents and chimneys
Rain or a thaw is forecast after a heavy snowfall

Rain on a loaded metal roof is the classic trigger for a sudden slide. If one of these applies, keep people and vehicles away from the drip line and call before the weather changes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Often, but not always, and not safely. Snow can hang on at low pitches or behind snow guards, then release all at once onto a doorway, a car or a person. We bring it down in controlled sections before it avalanches.

We use plastic tools only and leave a thin layer of snow on the panels, so nothing metal touches the finish. Ice is released with low-pressure steam, never scraped.

Yes. Barns, horse shelters, workshops and detached garages with metal roofs are common in Hudson and St-Lazare, and their wide spans can carry a lot of snow. We clear them with the same method as the house.

A single-storey metal roof usually falls in our $250 to $450 range and a two-storey house in the $350 to $650 range. Large barns and outbuildings are quoted by size and access.

Yes. We locate snow guards, vents and panel mounts first and clear around them by hand. We never pry snow or ice off a panel or a guard.
