Sterling Roof and Copper Gutters - True Gems!

Wednesday

We just finished this beautiful home in Auburn, Washington.  The roofing is Cool Matte Black Sterling by ASC Building Products and the gutters are Half-Round produced in pure Copper. 

Sterling roofing is a 24 gauge standing seam product installed on clips for a true floating roof, ideal for long runs to allow for expansion and contraction.  The manufacturer offers a Limited Lifetime Warranty on the finish and our company offers up to a Lifetime Weather Tightness Warranty as well.

The Copper gutters are produced locally and will last a lifetime, changing colors as the years progress. Half -Round gutters get their name from the fact they have a barrel look, as if cut in half and are a great alternative to the standard K-style gutters.  They are produced in many colors, bare or copper and in different sizes.

In all the project took 83 man days for a total of 664 hours.  We removed and disposed of the original shake roofing, put on new underlayments, replaced the skylights (this is a great idea when you are having new roofing installed, skylights do not have a long lifespan) then installed the roofing, gutters and flashings all to the manufacturer's specifications.  All went smoothly and we are very proud of our crew's attention to detail and their workmanship! - Keni

Work Of Art In Progress

Thursday













We are nearing halfway on our current project, a beautiful log home which is being transformed with a 24 gauge Matte Black "Sterling" metal roof by ASC Building Products.  In addition, we will be replacing the gutters with 6" Half-Round Copper gutters and 3" Downspouts.













Because of the extensive detail work, this will take 65 man days to complete, which is one of the main reasons metal roofing is pricier than a conventional composition replacement.  We are proud to have been selected by this homeowner, who found us through Angie's List.

Three's A Crowd!

Tuesday

These babies are growing fast! They have filled up their nest now and are finally lifting their heads and making some noise. Sterling (the momma) is not real happy with the paparazzi, and in fact, she is beginning to speak her mind when we come near. We are still trying to keep our invasions to a minimum, but they really are fun to look at. We are going to video them in a few days when they start feeding more, and will post the video asap.

Welcome Baby Birds!

Sterling (our resident Robin) is the proud momma of the cutest little fuzz balls. They look newly hatched and are staying in a little group huddled together.

Momma's Not Happy With Us!

Wednesday

We have a new resident in our building, and she has decided to bring her young into the world not 2 feet from our door. For the last two weeks, a fat, red robin has been dive bombing us everytime we come in, or go out of, our back door...and now we know why. She has made the camellia bush her home, and today we spotted two bright blue eggs in a fairly big nest. We are going to share with you this sign of spring (since the weather is no indication) with high hopes that in about 12 days (or less) we will have little chicks to brag about. We have named her Sterling and at this time we are going to try and let her have some peace. We will check as often as we can on her progress without disturbing her too much.

Finishing Touches

Friday

Tony and Andrew putting on the final touches around a chimney on an ASC Sterling roof in "Cool Leaf Green". Our guys spend a lot of time tweeking the metal to get it just right, expecially in places that need to be sealed against the weather.
