Your roof is one of the most important features of your home. It is the first line of defense everything that nature can throw at it including rain, wind, snow, ice, heat, cold, and UV. In the Calgary area, all of these factors take a toll on the longevity of your roof so it is important to ensure all of the proper pieces are there.

Your roof is not just shingles; several factors come into play in the installation of a proper roofing system.
All of the components under the shingles are crucial to the longevity of your roof and to get the best return on your investment. Whether you choose to trust us with your roof replacement or hire someone else, here are some key items to ensure you are receiving the best protection for your home.
-
Metal flashing including drip edge, valley, wall and step flashing. Each of these pieces protects the areas most susceptible to penetration from ice and water. Ensuring that these are in place will protect from wood rot or from water entering your home.
-
Ice and Water Eave and Valley Protector. The climate in Calgary and area sees all of the seasons and can be one of the harshest environments for your roof. Ice and Water Protector is a last line of defense for your roof deck in vulnerable areas.
-
Ventilation systems - Proper ventilation ensures that the climate inside of your attic maintains even circulation and helps to alleviate attic rain which can cause ceiling staining or worse. This includes proper ventilation of bathroom fan vents and kitchen fans.

Synthetic underlay - a high-quality underlay will act as a second moisture barrier for your roof. In the event of shingle failure, this will help to keep the elements out of your home.
