When it\u2019s time for a new roof, the two questions are always the same: what material, and what does it cost? Here\u2019s how we\u2019d walk you through it.
How to know it\u2019s time
Widespread curling or granule loss, leaks in more than one place, or a roof simply at the end of its years \u2014 once you\u2019re patching every season, a re-roof is usually the cheaper path in the long run.
Your material options
Asphalt shingle
Still the most popular roof for good reason \u2014 clean, dependable and the friendliest on the budget. Done with a proper tear-off and ventilation, it\u2019s a solid choice. See shingle roofing.
Metal
On the prairies the real win with metal is how it holds up in wind when it\u2019s installed correctly \u2014 plus it sheds snow on its own and lasts decades instead of the 15-year asphalt cycle. We roll-form our own standing seam on site, and we also install metal shingles. See metal roofing.
Cedar
Natural character for heritage homes and cottages, with warmth you can\u2019t fake. It rewards a careful install. See cedar roofing.
Composite
Modern materials \u2014 like Euroshield rubber and Enviroshake \u2014 that give a premium look with strong impact resistance.
What drives the cost
Every roof is different, so we quote each one free rather than guess. The big factors:
- Material \u2014 asphalt is the most affordable; metal and cedar are premium, long-life options
- Size and pitch \u2014 steeper, bigger roofs take more material and time
- Complexity \u2014 valleys, dormers, chimneys and skylights all add detailing
- Tear-off \u2014 removing the old roof and what\u2019s underneath
What to expect
A free quote and an honest recommendation, a proper tear-off, the right underlay and ventilation, a tidy install, and a clean site when we leave. Our installs are fully insured and workmanship guaranteed.
The bottom line: we\u2019ll give you the best roof your budget allows and tell you honestly where your money is best spent. Metal if you want the last roof you\u2019ll buy; quality asphalt if value matters most.
