Gray-brown standing seam on a steep A-frame cabin, installed by our crew partner.
Project story
This one is also outside Silver Loon's service area — real work by the crew that builds our roofs, this time east of Ely, close to the edge of the Boundary Waters.
The cabin is a classic steep A-frame, log construction, with two tall chimney stacks running up through the roof plane. The new roof is a gray-brown standing seam panel, run vertically from ridge to eave with no valleys to catch snow and ice. A second, smaller roof section covers a porch or entry addition at the base of the A-frame.
Steep A-frame roofs like this one shed snow mostly on their own — the pitch does the work. Standing seam metal adds a smooth surface with no shingle tabs for ice to grab, which matters on a roof this steep, where a slab of snow letting go without warning is a real hazard. The photos show the crew working the ridge line, running panel and trim around both chimneys. A short walk downhill, the cabin's dock and a second matching structure sit at the water's edge.
