Metal Roofing Reston VA

Phone 540-222-1642 we are Alpha Rain The Metal Roofing Company.  We are making vented Ridged caps for Metal Roofing Reston VA.  We will show how it is done and why we have it custom made on our own machine.  We have made over 7 thousand feet today of Metal Roofing Vented J Channel.

Most metal roofing that you see with a ridge cap has one huge problem to it, it only looks good it does not function, and some might think it doesn’t even look good.  You might ask why does it not work, the reason is simple it does not have any way for air to flow out of the attic because the J channel which is what connects and holds the Ridge Cap that you see from the ground is a solid piece of metal.  This will not allow for any airflow at all, as you can see in our video we have a rather large machine that perforates are metal to allow for airflow.  If a metal roofing company does not have their J channel for their ridge caps run through a machine like this before they install the ridge cap then you will have not airflow and it will only be a nice looking ridge cap.  We have a lot of customers who we install metal roofing for that do not like the look of a ridge cap, but they understand the need for it if the air is escaping out of the attic and out of our under roof ventilation system which I will talk about in other blogs and videos.

Below we have our information and contact info, and also below that, I have a link to the Metal Roofing Alliance where you can find contractors, more than just us Alpha Rain.  We believe that competition will not be able to provide you products like our under metal roof ventilation system, optimized custom solar-powered fans designed roofing system, No leak W Valley, No and our No Leak Riglet Chimney flashing to name a few, but we leave it up to you the customer to decide your self.

Take a look at the video below, you can also contact us by phone at 540-687-0603 or by email info@alpharain.com or AlphaRain.com

Snow Birds Warrenton VA Metal Roofing (540) 222-1642

Paul Dysart from Alpha Rain Metal Roofing shot a live video from his house to show you why snow birds are so important to have on your roof.  Paul’s house is located in Warrenton VA.  This video was shot February 14, 2014.  Paul compares a standing seam metal roof with snow birds and one without snow birds to show you the difference.  Please visit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XScH5ZYEz0s to watch the video.  Alot of clients ask Alpha Rain how they can stop the snow from hanging off their roof or falling off in large quantities which can be very dangerous.  Paul covers that in this video and you can see clearly how effective these snow birds are in controlling the snow and ice.  These snow birds also stop ice damning and help the roofs control melting snow and ice which in turns protects the roof from heavy snow building up on gutters.  Alpha Rain has installed snow birds all over Virginia especially in the Warrenton VA Metal Roofing community.

Metal Roofing in Virginia vs. Metal Roofing in Europe.

In the heart of the historic district in Innsbruck Austria is the world famous Golden Metal Roofing of Maximilian I. Built in 1500 to quiet the rumor that the King was out of money this gold gilded copper shingle roof has 2,657 shingles. It is regilded with gold leaf every several years to keep it vibrant and shiny.

This was Maximilian’s residence and he could be seen often on the balcony with his 3rd wife, Bianca Maria Sforza of Milan. The roof is 52 feet wide and 12 feet tall.  We have put on many copper roofs but we haven’t been asked to gild them in gold…….yet!

If you would like us to install a golden metal roofing for you we would be happy to accommodate you, as we install similar metal roofs in va.
