When it's time for a new roof, the two questions are always the same: what material, and what does it cost? Here's how we'd walk you through it.
How to know it's time
Widespread curling or granule loss, leaks in more than one place, or a roof simply at the end of its years — once you're 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 — clean, dependable and the friendliest on the budget. Done with a proper tear-off and ventilation, it's a solid choice. See shingle roofing.
Metal
On the prairies the real win with metal is how it holds up in wind when it's installed correctly — 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't fake. It rewards a careful install. See cedar roofing.
Composite
Modern materials — like Euroshield rubber and Enviroshake — 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 — asphalt is the most affordable; metal and cedar are premium, long-life options
- Size and pitch — steeper, bigger roofs take more material and time
- Complexity — valleys, dormers, chimneys and skylights all add detailing
- Tear-off — removing the old roof and what's 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'll 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'll buy; quality asphalt if value matters most.
