A stunning combination of style and performance within the perfect setting made this quarter’s winner of the Metal Roofing Alliance’s[2] (MRA) Best Metal Roofing Project competition a true standout.

Tucked in the mountainous landscape of Park City, this breathtaking home required a roofing system that could withstand the region’s harsh climate while complementing its sleek architectural design. As the manufacturer and installer of the roof, Viotell Metal Concepts[3] used Coated Metals Group’s (CMG) Dark Bronze polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) standing seam metal, a choice that ensures both performance and aesthetic appeal.

The home’s quality metal roof provides crisp, clean lines that contrast beautifully against the rugged mountain backdrop. The mechanically seamed, double lock design minimizes maintenance needs and provides a watertight profile to offer weather resistance and durability. It is strong, yet lightweight, able to withstand high winds, the heavy snow loads and ice, and temperature fluctuations the region frequently experiences. A snow guard retention system also helps ensure snow loads will shed safely, protecting the home, its occupants, and the surrounding landscape.

“The balance of contemporary style and functional performance makes this project an exceptional example of metal roofing’s versatility,” says MRA executive director Renee Ramey.

The metal roof uses CMG’s PVDF coating, which features a 40-year finish warranty and is tested for durability against abrasion. The approximately 697-m² (7,500-sf) roof installation also drew high praise for its difficulty, efficiency, and careful attention to detail, especially considering its tight job site, limited access, and high elevations. By combining advanced metal fabrication, expert installation, and a refined aesthetic, this project showcases the advantages of standing seam metal in high-altitude environments.

“This project highlights our team’s unwavering dedication to excellence and our commitment to delivering innovative solutions to clients who demand the very best in craftsmanship and quality,” says Anthony Ortega of Viotell Metal Concepts. “We’re honored to receive this recognition from the Metal Roofing Alliance and deeply grateful to our hardworking craftsmen, whose skill, pride, and attention to detail make it all possible.”
