AboutTodd E. Miller Expertise I am available to answer any questions pertaining to residential (or other sloped) metal roofing. I have knowledge of most available products but I like to approach projects from a "needs" basis and analyze them individually. Additionally, I can answer most questions about building ventilation.
Experience I have worked for a manufacturer of residential metal roofing since 1980. I currently serve as President and have been involved with a wide variety of projects of all types across the world.
Organizations I am a board member for Metal Construction Association, Metal Roofing Alliance, the local United Way, our church, and our son's school.
Publications Over the years, I have had articles appear in several trade journals including RSI, Remodeling, and Qualified Remodeler.
Education/Credentials I have a B.A. in Communications and have also completed three years of training with the E-Myth Academy.
We are going to build a roof over our hot deck on a 2nd floor level. We get plenty of snow in the winter in SLC, Utah. There are bedroom windows above where we will be installing a roof so it limits the slope. I'm a little worried about the slope. It will be 2'4" over a length of 15'7". We will use metal roofing materials. What do you think?
Answer This will give you a slope of approximately 2:12.
I would encourage you to use only a mechanically seamed standing seam metal roof for this pitch. These are also often called double or triple lock products. They go on the roof as simple pans and then a seamer is run down the seams to crimp them tight.
