What’s different about Juneau

Juneau's road-isolated location forces materials and crews to arrive by barge or air, and heavy coastal rain and snow drive durable exterior detailing.

  • Metal sheds snow and resists ice dams, a common pick in heavy-snow regions.
  • Earthquake codes can require extra bracing and reinforcement.

How the cost is built

Metal-roof cost is driven by panel type (corrugated and ribbed steel are cheaper; standing-seam, aluminum, copper, and zinc cost more), roof complexity, and gauge. Metal costs about twice as much as asphalt upfront but lasts 40–60 years, so its cost per year is often lower.
