We install the same products we manufacture — standing seam, snap lock, SIP panels, and residential metal roofing. Every installation uses panels we’ve roll-formed ourselves, to our own quality standard.
Most roofing projects involve at least two separate companies — a panel manufacturer and an installation contractor. Each has their own tolerances, their own processes, and their own version of what “correct” looks like. When something goes wrong, the two parties point at each other.
When we manufacture your panels and install them, the spec is the same document from start to finish. No translation errors between fabrication drawings and installation crew.
Our installation crew's feedback directly influences how we form panels and trim. Details that other manufacturers get wrong — clip spacing, seam height tolerances, drip edge geometry — are right because we've learned them from doing the installs ourselves.
One company is responsible for the finished roof. If there's ever a question about panel performance or installation quality, there's one phone number to call — ours.
We primarily serve Edmonton and the greater Capital Region. Larger commercial projects are considered province-wide — contact us to discuss your location.
We provide a workmanship warranty on all installation work — the specific term depends on project type and scope and is included in your contract. Panel and coating warranties from the steel manufacturer are passed through in full. For commercial projects, we can discuss extended warranty options and maintenance programs at the time of quote.
Metal roofs typically last 40-70 years in Edmonton, significantly longer than asphalt shingles (15-25 years). The key factors are proper installation, quality materials rated for our climate, and regular maintenance. Our standing seam systems with concealed fasteners and thermal expansion joints are engineered specifically for Alberta’s temperature swings. Compare different metal roofing options to find the best fit for your home.
Modern metal roofing with proper underlayment and insulation is actually quieter than many people expect. We install high-quality synthetic underlayment and ensure adequate attic insulation, which significantly reduces noise transmission. Most homeowners report minimal difference compared to their previous asphalt roof.
Metal roofs actually excel in snow and ice conditions. The smooth surface allows snow to shed naturally, reducing structural load. We install ice and water shield, proper ventilation to prevent ice dams, and can add snow guards where controlled shedding is needed to protect walkways and landscaping.
While metal roofing has a higher upfront cost (typically 2-3x asphalt), the lifetime value is often better due to longevity, energy savings, and minimal maintenance. Most homeowners recover the difference through reduced replacements, lower cooling costs, and increased home value. We offer financing options to make the investment more manageable.
Yes, we handle all permit applications with Edmonton and surrounding municipalities. For insurance claims, we work directly with adjusters, provide detailed documentation, and ensure all work meets or exceeds code requirements. Our team has extensive experience with storm damage claims and can guide you through the entire process.
Whether you need panels supplied to your crew or a fully installed commercial roof, we can help. Call us or send your project details and we’ll respond within one business day.
