Signature Roofing Styles

Flat

Despite the name, these roofs are slightly sloped to allow for proper water drainage. They also provide usable space for HVAC systems, patios, gardens, etc.

Low-Slope

These roofs have a gentle slope to allow for water drainage. The pitch is usually less than 3:12 (the roof rises less than 3 inches for every 12 inches of horizontal distance).

Steep-Slope

Roofs with a pitch greater than 3:12 are considered steep slope. They offer excellent rain and snow runoff, making them ideal for residential roofing in Calgary.

Common Roofing Materials

Asphalt Shingles

The most popular choice in North America, asphalt shingles are cost-effective and versatile, with a range of styles available. Asphalt roofs typically last 15-25 years, depending on weather conditions.

Modified Bitumen (SBS)

Modified bitumen roofing is an asphalt-based compound engineered for excellent durability to combat Calgary’s harsh winters and hail storms. SBS is most commonly used for low-slope or flat roofs.

EPDM (Rubber)

EPDM is a durable, waterproof membrane resistant to snow, ice, hail, wind, and extreme weather. Rubber roofs are easy to maintain and often last up to 30 years or more. EPDM is also an environmentally friendly option.

Metal

Metal roofing, made from materials like steel or aluminum, is celebrated for its ability to withstand heavy snow, extreme hail, and fire. Metal roofs can complement any architectural style, regardless of the roofing slope.

Built-Up Roofs (BUR)

BUR systems, often referred to as "tar and gravel" roofs, are a flat roofing solution consisting of multiple layers of bitumen and reinforcing fabrics. Engineered to withstand foot traffic, they are an excellent choice for commercial buildings.

What is your warranty?

We offer an unbeatable lifetime warranty for workmanship. Product warranties vary based on the specific type of shingles and brand you select.

What is the best time of year for a roof replacement?

The best times for a roof replacement are late spring, summer, and early fall. There is less chance for delays due to weather, and the days are longer, meaning more hours of sunlight for the crews to work. We recommend contacting us well in advance if possible so that we can avoid delays due to high demand and product shortages. We can still work on your roof during the winter, weather permitting.
