Chestermere

Roofing in Chestermere

Storms that cross Calgary keep moving east, and Chestermere is what's east. We build roofs for that weather, with the price and a 15-year workmanship warranty in writing.

Why Chestermere

What the weather does to roofs out here

Chestermere has the lake, the newer streets, and very little between it and an incoming storm. Three things drive most of our work here.

Hail on the east track

Hail that forms over the foothills rides the storm track east, and Chestermere sits in the lane. Calgary is in Hailstorm Alley; Chestermere is the next stop. We can't say when the next storm lands, but we can have your roof and its paperwork ready when it does.

What hail does to a roof

Prairie wind near the lake

Streets backing onto the water and homes on the outer edge of newer neighbourhoods take wind straight off open prairie. Gusts work at rake edges, ridge caps, and any shingle that never fully bonded, so on exposed elevations we hand-seal those courses rather than trust the factory strip alone.

Big roofs, built after 2000

Most of Chestermere went up after 2000: two storeys, walkouts, and roof planes far larger than an older Calgary bungalow's. A bigger roof gives hail more to hit and makes a roof replacement a bigger decision, on a street where the neighbours' shingles set a high bar.

Hail and insurance

Insurance claims are part of roofing in Chestermere

Major hail stopped being a once-a-decade surprise in this part of Alberta. The August 2024 Calgary storm caused about $3.29 billion in industry-reported insured damage, and storm cells don't respect city limits. Many Chestermere homeowners have already been through a claim.

Knowing that process is part of the job here. We're HAAG-certified for residential roof inspections, and if the damage doesn't add up to a claim, we'll say so instead of pushing one. Our claim process guide walks through it step by step.

One warning: after every big storm, out-of-town door-knockers work Chestermere hard. Before signing anything on your doorstep, read our page on storm chasers.

What you get during a claim

  • A full inspection with photos of every slope
  • A written scope you can hand to your adjuster
  • Us on site when the adjuster walks the roof
  • Work completed to the approved scope, warranty in writing

One call

Roofing and exteriors, about 25 minutes from our shop

Hail rarely stops at the shingles. Alongside roof replacement and roof repair we handle siding, eavestrough, and soffit and fascia, so a storm means one estimate and one warranty conversation instead of three contractors in your driveway.

Our shop is in south Calgary, about 25 minutes from Chestermere. That matters less on installation day than three years later, when a warranty question gets answered by the company that put the roof on. A roof inspection with a written report is the cheap way to learn where yours stands before hail season, not after.

Questions

Chestermere roofing FAQs

Does hail hit Chestermere as hard as Calgary?

Often, yes. Storm cells that cross Calgary usually keep travelling east, and Chestermere has less shelter to slow the wind driving the hail. Nobody can promise what next season brings, but a documented roof makes a claim straightforward when a storm does land.

How much does a roof replacement cost in Chestermere?

Most asphalt roof replacements we do run $8,000 to $18,000, and Chestermere homes tend to land in the upper half of that typical range because the roofs are bigger. Once we measure, the quote you get in writing is the number you pay.

Are you actually in Chestermere often, or are we a side trip?

We're here every hail season and plenty in between. The shop is in south Calgary, about 25 minutes out, and the estimate, the installation, and any warranty visit all come from the same company, Monday to Friday, 8 to 5.
