A Strathmore roofer for town homes and Wheatland acreages
Strathmore sits on the Trans-Canada Highway about 50 km east of Calgary, and the 2021 Census counted 14,339 people here. It is a town of homeowners: the town reports that about 78% of residents own their home and roughly 60% live in a single-detached house.
Past the town limits, Wheatland County is farmyards and acreages with shops and outbuildings. Storms can hit hard; on June 30, 2016, a thunderstorm dropped hail and enough rain to put Highway 1 through town under water.
Roofing & exterior services in Strathmore
We work on Strathmore bungalows, two-storeys and duplexes, plus acreage homes, detached garages and shops out in the county.
Our specialty
Roof Replacement
We strip to the deck and rebuild with new underlayment, vents and flashing, finished in shingles or steel as you prefer.
Exteriors
Siding Replacement
New vinyl, fibre cement or metal siding for town homes and county acreages, with garages and gables trimmed to match.
Roof maintenance
35-Point Roof Tune-Up
For roofs that aren’t ready for replacement: we reseal flashings and vents, replace damaged shingles and check for weak spots. Typically $1,500–$5,000 + GST, with a 2-year warranty.
Asphalt shingles on Strathmore houses
Asphalt shingles cover most Strathmore roofs, from the older streets near downtown to newer areas like Lakewood. When yours is due, we take it down to the wood and build it back as a complete system, fastened for open-prairie wind. See how a replacement is done.
Malarkey Emerald Pro™ certified contractor
Emerald Pro status is the top level Malarkey awards to its installers. Because we install the complete Malarkey system, eligible roofs qualify for enhanced manufacturer coverage.
Architectural shingles
Most popularMost homeowners replacing worn three-tab shingles land here: a thicker, layered shingle that grips better in strong wind.
Impact-rated shingles
Built to stand up better to hail, which matters in a part of Alberta that sees storms most summers.
Designer shingles
Slate- or shake-look profiles that suit larger custom houses and acreage homes in the county.
Built for wind
Metal roofing in Strathmore
Steel is a strong option on acreage houses and shops, where long, simple roof lines suit metal panels. It sheds snow fast, has no tabs for wind to lift and often lasts as long as two shingle roofs, but it costs more up front. So on one visit we quote metal and shingles side by side. Read about metal roofing.
New siding for Strathmore homes
Prairie sun is hard on vinyl, and the damage usually shows first on south and west walls. Is the siding tired as well? Booking it in the same season as the roof and eavestroughs means matching colours and a single crew schedule. Walls are wrapped and every opening is flashed before new panels go on. See siding options.
Fibre cement
Our top pickNon-combustible, holds its shape through hot summers and cold winters, and the colour is baked on. Made in lap, board-and-batten and shingle looks.
Vinyl
Costs less up front and quickly freshens up a bungalow or two-storey in town.
Metal siding
Steel panels that suit shops, garages and modern farmhouse builds, and pair well with a metal roof.
Inside a Strathmore roof replacement
Out here, four parts of the job set the lifespan of a new roof. These are the ones we slow down for.
01
A solid deck
After tear-off we go over the deck, change any soft boards and secure loose sheathing so the new roof lies flat.
02
Ice and water membrane
When a thaw is followed by a hard freeze, a self-sealing layer under the shingles along the eaves and in the valleys keeps backed-up meltwater out.
03
Flashing at skylights and vents
Most leaks start at a pipe, vent or skylight. On a new roof these get new boots and new flashing, never the old parts reused.
04
Fastened for wind
Shingles stay put in gusts off the open fields around town when the nails go in the right place, starter strips seal and ridge caps are fastened well.
How a Strathmore job comes together
Here is how a Strathmore job runs. Once materials are delivered, most houses take one or two days.
We look at the roof in person first and take photos of anything that needs work.
- 01
Inspection and photos
We examine the shingles, flashings, vents and attic ventilation and send you photos of every concern.
- 02
Your written estimate
One written estimate covers products, scope and timeline, with optional lines for siding or eavestroughs.
- 03
Daily cleanup
Old shingles go into the bin as they come off, and magnetic nail sweeps cover the property before the crew heads home.
- 04
Final review and anniversary visit
We review the completed roof with you, then come back around the one-year mark to make sure all is well.
Roof problems we see in Strathmore
Hail after summer storms
Strathmore is in the hail-prone country east of Calgary; on June 30, 2016, a storm brought hail and flooded Highway 1 in town. Cracked or bruised shingles and dented vents are worth checking after a storm like that.
Bare spots and grit in the troughs
Granules piling up in the eavestroughs, curled edges and dark bare patches mean the shingles have little life left.
Tabs that will not stay down
With fields on every side, wind works at shingle edges. If tabs and ridge caps keep coming loose, the seal strips have given up.
Shop and garage roofs
Roofs on acreage shops and detached garages are easy to forget until they leak. We can look at them on the same visit as the house.
Sun-faded siding
South and west walls take the hardest sun. Brittle or chalky vinyl there is a good sign the siding is due.
Our promise to Strathmore homeowners
10 / 50
Warranty in writing
Every installation is backed by a written 10-Year Labour Warranty, with select shingles carrying as much as 50 years of manufacturer coverage.
WCB
Safe, respectful crews
Roofers with WCB coverage who tie off with harnesses every time and keep the work area clean and safe.
1 year
A visit one year later
Around the one-year mark, we stop by again to check the roof after its first round of seasons.

Strathmore roofing questions
Don’t see your question? Call us at (403) 333-0319.
What affects the cost of a new roof in Strathmore?
Size, pitch, layers coming off, any deck repairs and your material. After we have looked at the roof, you get a price with each item listed.
Do you work on acreages and shops in Wheatland County?
Yes. We replace roofs, siding and eavestroughs on acreage homes, detached garages and shops outside town, as well as on houses in Strathmore.
Is hail a real concern in Strathmore?
Yes. The town is in the hail-prone region east of Calgary, and a storm on June 30, 2016 brought hail and flooding to Highway 1 through town. Impact-rated shingles are worth considering if you are replacing anyway.
Can you replace siding and eavestroughs at the same time?
Yes. Vinyl, fibre cement or metal siding plus seamless eavestroughs, soffit and fascia can go on one quote and one schedule.
How long does a roof replacement take?
One to two days for most homes after the materials arrive. Large or steep roofs, or siding added to the job, take longer.
What warranty comes with a new roof?
Each roof includes our written 10-Year Labour Warranty, and manufacturer warranties on select shingles run up to 50 years.
How far outside Strathmore do you go?
We cover the whole town plus Carseland, Langdon and acreages across Wheatland County.
