Roofs in Gilford
Up toward Gunstock the exposure is genuine. Wind uplift is a design consideration rather than a formality, and it is one of the better arguments for standing seam here: a concealed-fastener panel clipped to the deck has no exposed washers to work loose, and the seam itself resists uplift in a way a screw-down panel does not.
Elevation also changes what lands on the roof. The upper slopes hold snow longer and get more of it, and a hillside house frequently has one aspect that never sees sun from December to March. That side is where ice builds, and it is worth pointing out to whoever quotes you.
Down on the shore, the roofs get more complex rather than more exposed — lake houses accumulate dormers, porches and rooflines that meet at angles nobody drew.
Gilford Note
On a Gilford hillside, tell the estimator which side of the roof never sees winter sun. That aspect behaves differently from the rest of the roof and it is where ice problems concentrate.
