Sandy sits in the southeast Salt Lake Valley, rising toward the Wasatch Mountains near the mouths of Little Cottonwood and Big Cottonwood canyons. Higher bench elevations mean snow often lingers longer than on the valley floor. JCA Roofing & Steel provides roofing, metal roofing, steel, rebar and concrete work in Sandy from our Salt Lake City base.
Roofs on the east bench
Homes closer to the mountains deal with heavier, longer-lasting snow and colder nights. That makes eave protection, ventilation and solid flashing details important for limiting ice dams and leaks. We inspect roofs with those conditions in mind.
Metal roofing near the mountains
Standing-seam metal roofs are a popular choice on homes with mountain views and a mountain-modern look. Metal sheds snow readily, so the roof plan should account for where snow will slide and whether snow retention is needed over decks, walkways and entries.
Steel and concrete for custom projects
Custom homes and remodels often use steel beams to open up floor plans or support large windows, along with structural concrete for foundations and retaining walls on sloped lots. JCA covers the rebar, concrete and steel erection.
