Marin County, CA Before & After

The owners of this A-Frame, hill-top home in Marin County, CA, were having repeated wind damage issues with their relatively new asphalt “50 year” shingles. They saw the Omega Shake in solid copper on their neighbor’s home and decided that they liked it enough to make the change themselves. Because their home sat right on a wind-swept ridge, both the original wood shake and the new asphalt shingle were unable to deal with the regular gales. At once, they eliminated their wind issue and upgraded their home by switching to a metal roof in copper. This material, comprised mostly of recycled material, will continue to age and streak over the years adding a classic, beautiful, natural look to the home, and the mechanical fastening system will ensure the highest possible resistance to wind damage for generations to come.
