Roofing Contractor in Calgary

Water travels before it shows up on a ceiling, so the stain is rarely under the leak. Most of the leaks we trace start at flashing — around a chimney, a skylight, a plumbing stack, where a roof meets a wall — or in a valley. Wind is the other common cause here: Chinook gusts lift and crease shingles, and once the seal is broken the next storm drives water under them.

We find the actual source, show you what we found, and repair it so it stays repaired. If the roof is past the point where a repair is good value, we will say so and give you a replacement quote alongside the repair price so you can choose.

Calgary sits in one of the most hail-prone corridors in Canada, and most of it falls between June and August. Hail damage is usually not visible from the ground. It shows up as bruised or fractured shingles, granule loss in round patches, and dents in roof vents, flashing and eavestroughs.

After a storm we inspect the roof, photograph what we find and give you a written report you can hand to your insurer.

These are the systems we put on Calgary homes and buildings. We will tell you which suits yours.

Chinooks are hard on roofs. A warm spell melts the snow on a roof, the water runs down to the cold eaves and freezes again, and an ice dam forms that pushes meltwater back up under the shingles. The cause is almost always heat escaping into the attic.

Every roof we replace gets its ventilation checked and balanced — intake at the soffits, exhaust at or near the ridge — and we look at attic insulation while we are up there. Getting this right is what stops ice dams, and it also extends the life of the shingles.

The edge of the roof does a lot of work. Vented soffit is the intake half of your attic ventilation, fascia carries the eavestrough, and the eavestrough decides where several thousand litres of water go every time it rains. We replace these alongside a roof or on their own, and route downspouts so water is carried away from the foundation rather than pooled against it.

We install and repair flat and low-slope roofing on commercial buildings, including tenant improvement projects where the roof is part of a larger scope. Work is scheduled around how the building operates, and we keep occupied spaces protected while the roof is open.

You get a fixed, written quote after we have inspected the roof, with each of these items shown so you can see where the money goes. The inspection and quote are free.
