Roof Repair
Edmonton roof repair,
fixed at the source.
Leaks, missing shingles, ice-dam damage, failed flashings. We find the real source and fix it properly. Most repairs done same day.
How We Fix It
Most roof leaks aren't where you think they are.
Water hits a failed vent boot, a cracked flashing, or a popped nail three metres away from the ceiling stain you actually see, then runs under the shingles until it finds a seam and drips through. Finding the real source of the leak is half the job, and it's the half most contractors cut short.
Royal Roofing Edmonton does targeted, diagnostic roof repairs on Edmonton homes of every age and style. We climb up, track the leak to its actual source, and fix it properly with new material. Not a bead of caulk over a failing detail. Common repairs like missing shingles, vent boot swaps, failed flashings, and ice-dam damage are typically finished the same day, with photos of the completed work sent to you before we roll out.
We don't push full replacement on roofs that still have life in them. If your roof is ten years old and has one failed boot, that's a repair, and we'll tell you so. If it's at end of life, we'll tell you that too, instead of selling you a patch that won't hold. Every repair we do is backed by a written 1-year workmanship warranty on the area we worked.
What We Fix
Common roof repairs in Edmonton.
Active leaks
Water stains on the ceiling, drips in the attic. We track the leak back to its real source, which is often not where the stain shows up, and seal it.
Missing or blown shingles
Wind-lifted tabs, shingles in the yard after a storm. We match colour as closely as possible and replace with the same gauge system.
Failed flashings
Rusted step flashings, cracked chimney collars, failed apron flashing. We replace the metal, not just caulk it.
Cracked vent boots
The rubber collar around plumbing stacks is the #1 source of leaks in Edmonton. We swap them for long-life aluminum boots.
Ice-dam damage
Repair the immediate damage and diagnose the attic ventilation / insulation problem driving the ice dam so it doesn't return.
Hail & storm damage
Isolated hail strikes repaired; full-roof hail damage documented for your insurance adjuster with photos and measurements.
Ridge cap & valley issues
Cracked ridge cap, worn valley metal, pinhole rust. Repaired with the right gauge metal, not quick fixes.
Skylight & penetration leaks
Skylight flashing is notorious for leaks. We strip it back, re-flash correctly, and re-shingle.
Emergency tarp-over
If a storm opened up your roof and a permanent repair isn't possible today, we can come out with a tarp to stop interior damage until the real fix happens.

FAQ
Questions about repairs.
In most cases, yes. Common repairs like missing shingles, failed plumbing vent boots, cracked flashings, and popped nails can be diagnosed and repaired the same day. More complex repairs may need a return visit once we've sourced the right material.
Most common repairs (failed vent boot, missing shingles, popped nails) land between $200 and $600. More involved work like re-flashing a chimney, fixing storm damage, or tracking down a hidden leak usually runs $1,000 to $3,000. We give you a firm price before any work starts, and we tell you honestly if a repair isn't the right call for your roof.
Rule of thumb: if your roof is under 15 years old and the damage is localized, a repair is almost always the right call. If the roof is near end-of-life, patching can be throwing money at a problem that will come back. We'll tell you honestly which one applies. We don't push replacement on roofs that have life left in them.
Yes. Every repair includes a written 1-year workmanship warranty on the area we repaired. If the same leak comes back in that period, we come back at no charge.
We repair isolated hail strikes regularly. For widespread hail damage across the roof, we can also help you through the insurance process and provide photos and measurements for your adjuster.
Ice dams are usually a ventilation or insulation problem as much as a roof problem. We'll repair the immediate damage, then tell you what's actually driving the ice dam so it doesn't come back next winter.
