In addition to being environmentally friendly, a Euroshield® roof provides top protection from hail, wind, cracking, rot, UV fading, mold, algae, and more. Explore how a Euroshield® Rundle Slate roof can enhance any building while also protecting our natural environment.

Why Choose Rundle Slate?

Slate roofs are a traditional choice seen throughout Europe and many other parts of the world. European quarries provided a great source of materials throughout the region. These dark, richly pigmented roofs became associated with a classic sense of elegance and sophistication. It’s no surprise that North American builders started recreating the traditional look of slate roofs on more modern projects.

A slate roof looks refined, but the traditional stone brings some challenges. Slate roofing tiles are heavy, expensive, and require extra support. Low-quality slate roofs are often fragile and don’t protect well against hail, snow, or rain.

Euroshield® created Rundle Slate as a satisfying alternative to stone slate roofs. Rundle Slate tiles give any project the classical look of a slate roof, but also deliver better performance than stone. This solution makes it easy to add the beautiful look of slate to your home or other projects.

Euroshield Rundle Slate in Edmonton — Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to what Edmonton homeowners ask most about Euroshield Rundle Slate rubber roofing.

What is Euroshield Rundle Slate?

Euroshield Rundle Slate is a rubber roofing shingle that delivers the look of natural slate while being made largely from recycled rubber. It pairs an elegant slate aesthetic with the toughness and impact resistance of rubber roofing. Iron Shield Roofing installs Euroshield Rundle Slate for Edmonton homeowners who want a refined slate look with rubber's durability.

Is Euroshield made from recycled materials?

Yes — Euroshield roofing is manufactured largely from recycled rubber, making it an environmentally friendly choice that also delivers excellent durability. It's Canadian-made, produced in Alberta, so it's designed with this region's climate in mind. Iron Shield Roofing installs Euroshield for homeowners who value both sustainability and performance.

Is Rundle Slate good for Edmonton's hail and climate?

Yes — Euroshield's rubber shingles are known for strong impact resistance, a major advantage in hail-prone Alberta, and the material stays flexible and durable through freeze-thaw cycles, wind, and temperature swings. Being made in Alberta, it's built with this climate in mind. Iron Shield Roofing often recommends Euroshield for homeowners specifically concerned about hail.

How long does a Euroshield Rundle Slate roof last?

Euroshield rubber roofing is built for long-term durability and is backed by a strong, long-term manufacturer warranty that reflects its expected lifespan. Because rubber resists the cracking, chipping, and impact damage that affect natural slate, it's designed to last for decades. Iron Shield Roofing installs it to specification and will review the warranty terms with you.

What does Rundle Slate look like?

Rundle Slate is designed to replicate the refined, dimensional look of natural slate, giving a home a high-end appearance without the weight and fragility of real stone. It comes in colour options to suit different homes. Iron Shield Roofing can show you the available colours so you can see how it would look on your home.

Is Euroshield Rundle Slate impact and hail resistant?

Impact resistance is one of Euroshield's defining strengths — its rubber construction is engineered to absorb impact and resist hail damage far better than many traditional materials, including natural slate, which can crack on impact. That resilience is a key reason hail-conscious Alberta homeowners choose it. Iron Shield Roofing can explain how Rundle Slate's impact performance applies to your home.

How does Rundle Slate compare to real slate or asphalt?

Compared to natural slate, Rundle Slate offers a similar elegant look but is far lighter, tougher against impact, and easier to install — real slate is heavy and can crack under hail; compared to asphalt, it's far more durable and impact-resistant, though it costs more up front. It aims to combine slate's beauty with rubber's resilience. Iron Shield Roofing will help you weigh the options.

How much does a Euroshield Rundle Slate roof cost?

As a premium rubber roofing product, Rundle Slate costs more up front than asphalt shingles, but its durability, impact resistance, and long warranty can make it cost-effective over the life of the roof. The exact cost depends on your roof's size and pitch and the amount of tear-off. Iron Shield Roofing provides a free assessment and written quote so you know what's involved.

Can Euroshield Rundle Slate be installed in winter?

Yes — Euroshield rubber roofing can be installed year-round with proper techniques, and the material handles cold conditions well. Many Edmonton roofs are installed through the colder months. Iron Shield Roofing plans installations around suitable weather so the work is done correctly rather than rushed.

What warranty comes with Euroshield Rundle Slate?

Euroshield Rundle Slate is backed by a strong, long-term manufacturer warranty reflecting its durability, and a professional installation adds a workmanship warranty on the work itself. Iron Shield Roofing installs Euroshield to the standards that keep the manufacturer warranty valid and stands behind its workmanship — we'll review the specific terms with you.
