Shingle, Metal and Tile Re-Roofs for Calgary Homes and Multi-Family Buildings
What Is a Sloped Roof?
Sloped roofs also create attic space, which helps with ventilation and insulation. In a cold climate like ours, a well-vented, well-insulated attic keeps heat in the house and helps prevent ice dams.
Today, most Calgary homes have sloped roofs, and so do many townhouse complexes, small offices, restaurants and retail buildings. In short, a pitched roof gives a building a familiar, welcoming look and a long service life when it is installed properly.
Signs You Need a Sloped Roof Replacement in Calgary
Other damage is harder to see, especially on two-storey homes where the roof is hard to reach. Most homeowners and property managers should not be climbing a steep roof, so minor damage can go unnoticed until it becomes a bigger problem.
In addition, damage can sit under the shingles in the underlayment or deck. Watch for these signs inside the building, even if the roof looks fine from the street:
Higher heating bills
Drafts on the top floor
Damp or humid air
Uneven room temperatures
Birds or pests in the attic
Ceiling stains or drips
Noises from the attic
Sloped Roof Replacement Options in Calgary
Because of that, we offer nine sloped roof systems, from budget-friendly asphalt shingles to impact-resistant metal and synthetic products. Here is a quick look at each one.
ASPHALT SHINGLES
Asphalt shingles are the most common roof on Calgary homes because they are affordable, durable and available in many styles. For better hail performance, we also offer impact-resistant shingle lines from the major manufacturers.
F-WAVE SYNTHETIC REVIA SHINGLES
F-Wave REVIA synthetic shingles are made from engineered polymers. They resist hail, wind and UV, and they are lightweight. In addition, they look like slate or shake without the weight or upkeep.
EUROSHIELD RUBBER SHINGLES
Euroshield rubber shingles are made from recycled rubber and look like slate or cedar shake. They are flexible and highly resistant to hail, which makes them a popular upgrade in Calgary.
METAL ROOFING SHINGLES
Metal shingles shed snow well and hold up to hail and wind for decades. As a result, they need very little maintenance once installed.
STANDING SEAM METAL ROOFING PANELS
Standing seam metal panels have raised seams and concealed fasteners. They shed snow quickly, last for decades and come in a wide range of colours.
STONE-COATED STEEL ROOFING SHINGLES
Stone-coated steel combines the strength of a metal roof with the look of shingles, shake or tile. It is a strong choice for homeowners who want hail resistance and curb appeal.
COMPOSITE DESIGNER SHAKE AND SLATE
Composite shake and slate give you the look of natural materials with engineered performance. For example, they resist cracking, fading and moisture far better than the real thing.
CEDAR SHAKES AND SHINGLES
Real cedar shakes and shingles offer a warm, natural look. With proper ventilation and maintenance, they can perform well for many years.
CLAY AND CONCRETE TILE ROOFING
Clay and concrete tiles are heavy, long-lasting and fire-resistant. We can advise whether your structure can carry the weight before you choose tile.
