Roof Things History
Check out this bill of sale for Snow Guards for Dr. M. Halliday that was issued on February 25th 1897. Snow guards have been around A LONG time. It's been exactly 114 years and 1 month since Halliday billed for his invention of the snow guards. I love how the address of this company points out the obvious , "between 2d and 3d Aves". A few years after the snow guards was invented, Charles G. Halliday, M. Hallidays son, bought out his fathers roofing business and continued pratice as a Slate and Metal roofer. He also continued to manufacture the snow guards for slate and slanting roofs.

Mini Snow Guard Articles
We are happy to announce that we now carry the mini snow guard by Sno Shield called the SS Mini. Mini snow guards are a great alternative to full size snow guards in areas where you don't receive a lot of snow, or to use in tight spots where the larger ones just won't fit.
Friends in Japan
Posted by Roof Things on 3/16/2011 to
In the summer of 2009, we welcomed two men we had never met before from Japan to our home for a week during an international dance festival. They were members of Musashi Kengo Daiko, basically a martial arts drumming group. I was amazed at the respect their youth had for others. The people of Japan are truly some of the most humble and caring people I have met.
