Metal roofing is a popular choice for properties in Cranbrook, due to its resilience against the region’s challenging winters. It’s especially good for preventing ice accumulation that can result in ice dams. Although metal roofing is what we usually recommend for Cranbrook and area, other materials like shingles can be a good choice if you’re looking for a more cost-effective solution.
Cranbrook weather is marked by cold winters with substantial snowfall and relatively mild summers. Roofs here need to be capable of supporting the weight of accumulated snow and managing the potential for ice dams. Additionally, UV exposure during sunny days, although less intense than in hotter climates, can still cause wear over time. Choosing materials that can insulate effectively and withstand these varied conditions is crucial for long-term durability.
When you’re trying to plan your budget for a re-roof project, there are ways to calculate an estimated materials cost but it’s not going to be super accurate.
So getting an inspection and quote is the best place to start if you’re considering getting your roof replaced. That way, you know exactly what you’re looking at ahead of time. Give us a call and we will provide an estimate for free.
Roof maintenance in Lethbridge should include checking for and repairing damage from severe weather events like wind storms and heavy snow. It’s also wise to clear your gutters and downspouts to prevent water accumulation and ensure seals and flashings are intact to cope with the region’s high winds.
Key signs that a roof may need repairs include visible sagging, shingles that are buckling, cracked, or missing, and water stains on the ceilings inside your home. During winter, the formation of ice dams along the roof’s edge can also indicate inadequate roof insulation or ventilation issues.
It’s a good idea to have your roof inspected at least once a year, ideally in the fall before the onset of winter. This timing allows homeowners to address any issues before snow and ice worsen them. Additional checks in the spring can help assess any impacts from winter weather and prepare the roof for the summer months.
Generally, a roof replacement can be completed in 1 to 5 days, depending on the size of the roof and time of year. For larger or more complex roofs, or if unexpected issues arise, the process might extend slightly longer.
As a guideline, these are typical timelines:
Shingles: 1-2 days
Metal roofing : 2-3 days
Bigger projects: 3-5 days
Keeping on schedule is important for minimizing disruptions to your routine and helps ensure other contractors can get in to do their work.
We offer an 8-year workmanship warranty for our roof services, which covers everything our team installs. Certain roofing materials have additional warranties available. These are usually prorated for the first 10 years, and then depreciate from there.
The noise from a metal roof is going to be louder than a shingle roof. However, it should never be so loud that it disrupts your day-to-day life. If noise is something you’re worried about with your metal roof replacement, opt for a material with a thicker gauge. This will ensure that there is a greater sound barrier between you and any weather events.
No matter the material you choose for your roof, you will typically be able to hear powerful storms and other common noises. That is true for all roofing materials, not just metal ones. Noise protection is something you can consider when selecting the material that’s best for you. There are many options — metal and otherwise — that will reduce sound caused by rainfall.
