Roof Replacement
Edmonton roof replacement,
done right the first time.
Full tear-off to new architectural shingles, ice-and-water shield at every eave and valley, new flashings, and a 10-year workmanship warranty in writing.
Our Approach
A roof replacement is only as good as the details underneath.
When it's time for a full roof replacement, the details underneath the shingles are what decide whether a roof lasts 15 years or 30. In Edmonton's freeze-thaw climate, the underlayment, the flashings, and the attic ventilation matter more than the shingle colour on the front porch display.
Every roof we install in Edmonton starts with a complete tear-off down to the deck. We inspect every sheet of sheathing, replace any damaged sections, and lay ice-and-water shield at every eave, valley, and penetration. The underlayment is high-tear synthetic. The flashings are all new metal. The shingles are premium architectural systems from IKO, Malarkey, BP, or GAF, picked to suit your home and budget.
We've been replacing roofs across Edmonton and the surrounding communities long enough to know exactly what fails on a prairie roof and what holds up. Every install is backed by a 10-year written workmanship warranty on top of the manufacturer's product coverage. If it leaks because we installed it wrong, we come back and fix it.
What You Get
What's included in every replacement.
Complete tear-off
Every shingle and every layer of old underlayment comes off. We do not re-shingle on top of old material. A real replacement starts at the deck.
Deck inspection
With the roof stripped, we inspect every sheet for rot, damage or deflection. Any replacement is shown to you with a photo before we cut.
Ice-and-water shield
Installed at every eave, every valley, and around every penetration. It's what keeps ice dams and wind-driven rain from getting under your shingles.
Synthetic underlayment
High-tear-strength synthetic felt across the entire roof, not the cheap paper most bidders spec. Better water resistance and better walkability for the crew.
New metal flashings
Step flashings, apron flashings, chimney flashings, and vent boots are all replaced. Old flashings get reused by shortcut contractors. We do not.
Premium shingles
Architectural (laminated) shingles from IKO, Malarkey, BP, or GAF. Impact-resistant Class 4 upgrades are available and can reduce your hail insurance premium.
Ridge vent & proper ventilation
Attic ventilation is assessed as part of the job. Poor ventilation bakes a roof from underneath, so we fix whatever is wrong at the same time.
Full site cleanup
Tarps around the house during tear-off, a bin for debris, and a rolling magnet across the yard to pick up every loose nail. You shouldn't know we were there.
Written workmanship warranty
10-year workmanship warranty in writing, on top of the manufacturer's product warranty. If it leaks because we installed it wrong, we come back.

Free on-site inspection
We climb the roof, check ventilation, photograph any concerns, and take measurements. You get photos and notes, not a sales pitch.

Tear-off & deck check
Tarps go up, old shingles come off, and the deck is inspected. Any damage is photographed and priced per sheet, so there are no surprises.
New system install
Ice-and-water shield, synthetic underlayment, new metal flashings, starter strip, shingles, ridge cap. Installed to manufacturer spec.
Walk-through & warranty
We walk the job with you, complete the magnetic nail sweep, and hand you your written workmanship warranty.
FAQ
Questions about replacement.
For a typical single-family Edmonton home, a full asphalt-shingle replacement usually lands between $9,000 and $18,000, depending on roof area, complexity (dormers, valleys, steep pitch), shingle grade, and whether you upgrade to impact-resistant Class 4 shingles. Larger acreage-style homes and premium systems run higher. Your written quote gives you a firm number.
Most single-family residential roofs are stripped, inspected, underlayed and reshingled in one to two working days. Larger or complex roofs with multiple valleys and dormers may take three. We'll give you a specific timeline with your written quote.
We install architectural (laminated) asphalt shingles from IKO, Malarkey, BP, and GAF as our core systems. For premium upgrades we also install impact-resistant Class 4 shingles, which can reduce hail insurance premiums. Metal roofing is available on request.
Yes, but with caveats. Asphalt shingles self-seal best in warm weather (the adhesive strips activate around 20°C). Winter installs typically require manual sealant on every tab to make up for that. We prefer to schedule full replacements between April and October when possible, but we work with homeowners in the off-season when needed. Urgent repairs we handle year-round.
Always. A re-shingle on top of old, dried-out felt is not a real replacement. We strip the roof to the deck, inspect the sheathing, install ice-and-water shield at every eave, valley, and penetration, then a high-quality synthetic underlayment before any shingle goes down. Metal flashings are replaced, not reused.
We inspect the deck as we strip. Small areas of rot or damage are replaced at a fair per-sheet price that is disclosed in your quote. You are never charged a surprise. Any replacement is shown to you with a photo before we cut anything.
Two layers. The manufacturer provides a product warranty on the shingles (typically 25 to 50 years depending on the system). On top of that, we provide a written workmanship warranty covering installation defects for 10 years. If we installed it wrong, we come back and fix it.
We drop tarps around the house, catch debris, haul every bundle of old shingles off in a bin, and sweep the property with a rolling magnet to pick up nails. If you can tell we were there when we leave, it's because the roof looks better, not because there's garbage in your yard.
