Types of Metal Roofing We Offer

From modern standing seam roofs to cost-effective exposed fastener panels, we offer metal roofing systems built to withstand Calgary's snow, wind, hail, and extreme temperature changes.

Standing Seam Metal Roofing

We install mechanically locked standing seam roofs from 24-gauge Canadian steel (Cascadia Metals, zinc coating on both sides).

The panels are secured with concealed clips, then mechanically locked together on site, creating a continuous seam without exposed screws. Every standing seam roof is installed over a high-temperature ice & water shield for maximum waterproof protection. We also inspect the roof deck before installation and replace any damaged/ rotten plywood if needed.

Because the panels are installed directly onto durable plywood rather than lumber strapping, they provide excellent support during the hail storms that often occur in northern Calgary and are much less likely to suffer even minor damage.

Standing seam roofs can be customized. Panels are available in 12", 14", and 16" widths, with 1", 1½", or 2" seam heights. They also suit for curved or any other complex roof geometry. Choose from matte or gloss finishes in classic colours like black, white, charcoal, or many other bold colours (red, green, corten or blue).
snap-lock metal roof calgary

Snap-Lock Metal Roofing

Snap-lock standing seam is a popular choice for homeowners who want the clean, modern appearance of standing seam roofing without the higher installation cost of a mechanically locked system. The 24ga steel panels are installed using concealed clips, so there are no exposed screws anywhere on the roof.

Snap-lock panels are made with special edges that fit together (male and female profiles), so there is no need to fold the seams after installation. One edge snaps over the next, holding the seam in place with pressure instead of using a machine. This makes installation easier, saves time, and helps keep costs down for homeowners.

The hidden fastening system lets the panels expand and contract as temperatures change during the year. Snap-lock roofing works well on most homes with standard roof slopes and gives the same smooth, continuous look that makes standing seam roofs stand out.

With many colours and finishes to choose from, it is easy to find a style that fits both modern and traditional homes.
metal shingles roofing calgary, aluminum shingles

Metal Shingles (Aluminum)

Aluminum shingles come as stamped modular panels made from 0.028" aluminum alloy (3003-H24 or 3105-H24). Each lightweight panel is shaped to look like cedar shakes or natural slate, which gives the roof more depth and character than flat panels.

A major benefit of aluminum is that it does not rust. Even if the surface gets scratched or cut during installation, the metal stays resistant to corrosion. The embossed design also makes the panels stronger and helps hide small dents, including those caused by hail, that would be much more noticeable on a smooth metal roof.

The panels lock together on all four sides and use hidden fasteners, so there are no visible screws and the roof looks neat. Their smaller size works well for roofs with dormers, valleys, hips, and other details, where long panels would need more cutting and create more waste.

Aluminum shingles are light, fire-resistant, and need almost no maintenance. They come in styles that look like cedar shakes or slate, so you get the classic look of traditional roofing without the upkeep required for wood or stone.
metal tile roofing calgary

Metal Tile Roofing

Metal tile roofing is our most budget-friendly steel roofing system. The panels are made from 25ga (0.53 mm) cold-rolled G90 galvanized steel with a 275 g/m² zinc coating to protect against corrosion. Each panel has 6 rows of tiles, so a large section of the roof goes on with every sheet. That means fewer panels to install, faster installation, and lower labour costs. The roof is secured with exterior-grade exposed screws fitted with sealing washers, specifically designed for long-term outdoor use.

If your existing asphalt shingles are still in good condition, metal tile roofing can often be installed over the existing roof using a PVC membrane and wood strapping. This can reduce demolition costs and speed up the project. However, if the roof is older or there's any concern about the condition of the decking, we recommend removing the old roofing and inspecting the plywood before installing the new system.

Metal tile roofing is designed for roofs with a minimum 4:12 pitch. It's not recommended for low-slope or flat roofs because the profiled shape can slow water drainage. The roof can also be safely walked on for maintenance, but only by stepping on the flat sections supported by the wood strapping rather than the raised tile profile.
stone-coaated metal roofing calgary

Stone-Coated Metal Roofs

Stone-coated metal roofing offers the durability of steel with the appearance of a traditional tile roof. Each panel is made from aluminum-zinc coated steel and finished with a layer of natural stone granules bonded to the surface. The textured finish gives the roof a more natural look while adding another layer of protection against UV exposure and everyday weathering.

One of the biggest advantages of this system is how it performs during storms. The stone coating helps absorb the sound of rain and hail, making the roof noticeably quieter than smooth metal panels. It also helps disguise small dents that would be much more visible on a flat metal surface. The panels are lightweight, installed with concealed fasteners, and lock together to create a clean, finished appearance with no exposed screws.

Stone-coated metal roofing is built for harsh climates. It's resistant to corrosion, fire, high winds, heavy snow, and freeze-thaw cycles, while requiring very little maintenance over its lifetime. With a wide selection of colours and profiles available, it's a great choice for homeowners who want the longevity of metal roofing without the industrial look of traditional metal panels.
AG panels roofing calgary

AG Panels Roofing

AG panels are made for buildings where strength and function are more important than looks. You’ll often see them on barns, workshops, equipment shops, sheds, riding arenas, and other farm buildings that need a dependable roof without the higher price of residential roofing.

These agricultural metal roofing panels are usually made from 26 to 29-gauge steel, depending on what your project needs. Their ribbed shape adds strength, and they’re installed with exposed fasteners and sealing washers that hold up well outdoors. Because they’re easy to put in, both material and labour costs stay low, making AG panels one of the most affordable metal roofing choices for farmhouses and barns.

Since the panels come in long pieces, you can cover big roofs quickly. If part of the roof gets damaged, you can usually just swap out the affected panel instead of redoing the whole roof. AG panels come in several standard colours, need very little upkeep, and are made to last through years of tough weather. For farm and utility buildings, they’re a straightforward, reliable roofing solution.

Metal Roofing Cost in Calgary

A question we often get is, "How much does a metal roof cost?" The price depends on the type of roofing system you pick, the size and shape of your roof, and whether we need to remove your old roof first. In general, metal roofing in Calgary costs more at first than asphalt shingles, but it lasts much longer and needs less upkeep. The most expensive option is the mechanically locked standing seam, while metal tile roofing and AG panels are more affordable choices. If you want to know the cost of a 1,500 sq ft metal roof, remember that the roof area is usually different from your home's floor area. Features like roof pitch, valleys, dormers, chimneys, and skylights all change how much material and work is needed. Two homes with the same size can have very different roofing costs. The best way to find out the exact cost of metal roofing in Calgary is to get a free individual estimate. We will measure your roof, check its condition, explain your options, and give you a clear quote with no hidden fees.

New Metal Roof Installation

If you're building a new home, it's worth thinking about the roof long before the roofers arrive. We usually join the project after the framing is complete, when the roof is ready for its final covering. The first thing we'll ask for is your roof plans. From there, we estimate material quantities and other details that affect cost. If we notice something that could be simplified or improved, we'll let you know. The underlayment goes on first, followed by the roofing system you've chosen, along with all flashings, ridge caps, and ventilation components. No guessing on site, no last second design changes — just a roof built the way it was intended.

Metal Roof Replacement

Every roof replacement starts with removing the existing roofing. In Calgary, the most common material is asphalt shingles, but we also replace cedar shakes, concrete  tiles, and tar & gravel. Once the roof is stripped down, we inspect the plywood underneath. If we find soft, rotten, or water-damaged sections, we replace them. Before the metal panels are installed, the roof is protected with the appropriate underlayment. Depending on the roofing system, this may be a high-temperature ice & water shield or a synthetic roofing membrane. Taking the time to prepare the roof properly is just as important as choosing the right metal roofing system.

Metal Roofing Quote: What Happens After You Submit the Form?

After you submit the form, we'll give you a call to confirm a few details. We'll ask what roofing material you have now, what type of metal roof you're interested in, whether this is a replacement or a new build, and if you'd like us to include new gutters in your estimate.

Once we have that information, we'll complete a satellite roof measurement and prepare a rough estimate. This gives you a realistic idea of the project cost before anyone needs to visit your property.If the estimate is within your budget, we'll schedule an on-site inspection. At that point, we'll verify the measurements, inspect the roof, answer any questions, and prepare your final quote.

If you already know which roofing system you'd like, let us know when you contact us. As long as it's suitable for your roof's slope, we'll price that option right away. If you're not sure yet, simply tell us what you're looking for and what budget you have in mind. We'll recommend the roofing system that makes the most sense for your home and pair your project with the right installation crew.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions About Metal Roofing in Calgary
How much does a metal roof cost in Calgary?
The cost of a metal roof depends on several factors, including the roofing system you choose, the size and complexity of your roof, and whether it's a new construction project or a roof replacement. Standing seam roofing is typically the most expensive option (from $13/sq.ft.), while metal tile roofing and AG panels are more budget-friendly (from $8/sq.ft.). Roof replacements may also cost more if multiple layers of old roofing need to be removed or damaged plywood has to be replaced. The best way to get an accurate price is with a satellite measurement followed by an on-site inspection if needed.
Are metal roofs noisy when it rains or hails?
Not when they're installed correctly. A residential metal roof is installed over solid plywood decking with an underlayment, which absorbs much of the sound. Most homeowners notice little or no difference compared to asphalt shingles. Stone-coated metal roofing is even quieter because the natural stone granules help reduce the sound of rain and hail.
Can a metal roof be installed over existing shingles?
Sometimes. Metal tile roofing can often be installed over a single layer of asphalt shingles using a PVC membrane and wood strapping, provided the existing roof is in good condition. Other roofing systems, such as standing seam, typically require a full tear-off. We'll inspect your roof and recommend the installation method that makes the most sense for your home.
What is the best type of metal roofing for Calgary?
There's no single answer because every home is different. If you're looking for maximum durability and a premium appearance, mechanically locked standing seam is an excellent choice. Snap-lock standing seam offers a similar look at a lower cost. Metal tile roofing is a great value for homeowners on a tighter budget, while aluminum shingles and stone-coated steel are ideal if you prefer the appearance of traditional roofing materials. We'll help you choose the right system based on your roof design, budget, and long-term goals.
Can a metal roof be installed on a low-slope or flat roof?
Yes, but it depends on the roofing system. Mechanically locked standing seam is the best choice for low-slope roofs because the seams are mechanically folded together to create a watertight connection. Metal tile roofing, aluminum shingles, stone-coated steel, and AG panels all require steeper roof pitches and are not recommended for low-slope or flat roofs. We'll recommend the right system based on your roof's slope and drainage requirements.
Do metal roofs rust?
Quality metal roofing is designed to resist corrosion for decades. Steel roofing panels are protected by galvanized or aluminum-zinc coatings before they're painted, while aluminum roofing won't rust at all. Choosing quality materials and having the roof installed correctly are both important. Proper flashings, ventilation, and drainage all help extend the life of the roof and keep it performing as intended for many years.
