This stunning Muskoka cottage and garage showcases the perfect marriage of traditional timber frame architecture and modern metal roofing technology. Situated in cottage country, this custom build required a roofing solution that could protect both the main post-and-beam structure and the de-attached garage while complementing the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape. Our team worked closely with the builders to install a premium standing seam metal roof system across the cottage and garage, coordinating our installation as the property took shape over the course of a full year—from the harsh Muskoka winter through to the vibrant fall season.
The project featured our mechanically locked standing seam system with two stability ribs engineered to minimize oil canning while providing superior weather protection against Muskoka's challenging climate. We installed RoofNado premium underlayment throughout both structures, offering exceptional protection from ice dams, snow accumulation, and wind-driven rain—critical considerations for any cottage country property. The complex roofline, spanning both the main cottage and garage with multiple pitches and valleys, demanded precise attention to detail, including custom ridge cap fabrication and professional skylight integration that maintains the roof's weather-tight integrity. Working in phases as construction progressed, we ensured each section of both buildings was properly protected before moving to the next, demonstrating our commitment to quality regardless of seasonal challenges.
The result is a striking, maintenance-free metal roof system that unifies the cottage and garage aesthetic while providing decades of protection for this beautiful Muskoka retreat. The dark charcoal standing seam panels create a cohesive, modern look that enhances the property's architectural appeal with clean lines that complement the natural timber elements throughout.
