Roofing Services in Calgary
Your roof is the single most important barrier between your home and Alberta’s weather. Roofing protects everything below it from rain, hail, snow load, and UV exposure. Unlike siding installation services that shield your walls or eavestrough and gutter services that manage water at the roofline edge, roofing is the overhead waterproofing system that keeps your entire building dry and structurally sound. Alibaba Roofing and Renovation Inc has spent over 20 years installing, repairing, and replacing roofs for homeowners and businesses across Calgary, Cochrane, Okotoks, Chestermere, and Airdrie.
Full-Service Roofing: Repairs, Replacements, and New Installations
Whether you need a few damaged shingles replaced after a storm or a full tear-off and re-roof on an aging home, our crews handle every phase of the job. We manage roof repairs that stop active leaks, complete replacements that upgrade your protection for decades, and new construction installations built to current Alberta building codes. Every project starts with a thorough inspection so you know exactly what work is needed before we begin.

Residential Roofing
Your home’s roof takes the full force of Calgary’s hailstorms, heavy snowfalls, and chinook-driven temperature swings. At Alibaba Roofing and Renovation Inc, we install residential roofing systems designed to handle these conditions year after year. Our residential work covers asphalt shingle installations, metal roof upgrades, cedar shake replacement, and flat roofing for modern home designs. We help homeowners choose the right material for their budget, roof slope, and long-term plans. As CertainTeed, IKO, and BP certified installers, we follow manufacturer specifications on every project, which means your warranty stays fully valid from day one.
Commercial Roofing
Commercial buildings in Calgary face the same harsh weather as residential properties, but the stakes are different. A leaking roof can shut down operations, damage inventory, and create liability issues. We install and repair flat roofing membranes including TPO, modified bitumen, and EPDM systems for retail spaces, warehouses, office buildings, and mixed-use developments. Our commercial projects include scheduled maintenance programs that catch small problems before they turn into emergency calls. We work around your business hours to keep disruption to a minimum.

Your Full Exterior Team
Roofing often connects to other exterior work. When your roof is being replaced, it makes sense to address eavestrough and gutter services or complete exterior renovation needs at the same time. We coordinate these projects so you deal with one contractor, one schedule, and one point of contact.
How Our Roofing Process Works
Step 1: Free Eavestrough Inspection in Chestermere
We start with a no-cost on-site inspection of your existing eavestroughs, downspouts, and fascia boards. Our technician identifies damage, improper slope, leaking joints, and any areas where water is not draining correctly.
Step 2: Custom Measurement and Material Selection
We measure your roofline precisely so your new eavestroughs are fabricated to fit without seams where possible. You choose from available profiles, gauges, and colours to match your Chestermere home.
Step 3: Professional Eavestrough Installation
Our crew removes old gutters, prepares the fascia, and installs your new eavestroughs with correct pitch and secure hangers. All downspouts are positioned to direct water away from your foundation.
Step 4: Final Inspection and Cleanup
After installation we run a water test to confirm proper flow and check every joint and end cap for leaks. We remove all old materials and debris from your property before we leave.
Roofing Materials We Install
Choosing the right roofing material depends on your budget, roof slope, visual preferences, and how long you plan to own the property. Here is an honest breakdown of the options we install.
Asphalt Shingles
Asphalt shingles remain the most popular roofing material in Calgary for good reason. Architectural shingles offer a layered, dimensional look with wind resistance rated up to 210 km/h and a lifespan of 25 to 30 years. They are available in dozens of colour profiles to match any home style. We install CertainTeed Landmark, IKO Cambridge, and BP Mystique lines. Three-tab shingles are a budget-friendly alternative for properties where cost matters most.
Metal Roofing
Metal roofs are gaining popularity across Calgary, especially among homeowners looking for 50-plus-year longevity paired with a distinctive look. Standing seam panels and stone-coated steel tiles handle heavy snow loads, resist hail impact, and reflect heat in the summer. The upfront cost is higher than asphalt, but the reduced maintenance and longer lifespan often make metal the better long-term investment.
Flat Roofing Systems
Flat and low-slope roofs are common on Calgary commercial buildings, garages, and modern residential designs. We install modified bitumen, TPO, and EPDM membranes. TPO is a strong choice for energy efficiency on commercial properties. Modified bitumen offers proven durability for our climate. We help you choose the right membrane based on your building’s use, foot traffic, and drainage setup.
Cedar Shake and Composite Alternatives
Cedar shake delivers a natural, textured appearance that suits many Calgary heritage homes and mountain-style builds. The maintenance requirements are higher than asphalt or metal, including regular treatments to prevent moss and moisture damage. Composite alternatives replicate the cedar look with lower upkeep and improved fire ratings. We install both options and can help you weigh the trade-offs.

Our crews work throughout Calgary and the surrounding municipalities. Whether your home is in established communities like Mount Royal, Kensington, or Beltline, or newer developments in Seton, Cornerstone, or Livingston, we know the roof styles and common issues in each area.

Frequently Asked Questions About Roofing
How much does eavestrough installation cost in Chestermere?
Most residential eavestrough installations in Chestermere range from $800 to $2,500 depending on linear footage, material gauge, and the number of downspouts required. We provide a detailed written quote after the free inspection so there are no surprises.
How long does eavestrough replacement take?
A full eavestrough replacement on an average Chestermere home is typically completed in a single day. Larger properties or those requiring fascia repairs may take an additional day.
What are the signs my eavestroughs need to be replaced?
Common signs include visible cracks or holes, sagging sections, water pooling near your foundation, peeling exterior paint below the gutters, and water spilling over the sides during rain. If repairs are needed on more than a third of the system, replacement is usually more cost-effective.
Do you offer seamless eavestroughs in Chestermere?
Yes, we fabricate seamless eavestroughs on-site to the exact length of each run on your home. Seamless gutters eliminate most of the joints where leaks typically start and require less maintenance over time.
How often should eavestroughs be cleaned in Chestermere?
Chestermere homeowners should clean their eavestroughs at least twice a year, once in late spring and again in late fall after leaves have dropped. Properties near trees may need cleaning three to four times per year to prevent blockages and overflow.
Do you install eavestrough guards or leaf guards in Chestermere?
Yes, we supply and install eavestrough guards that reduce the amount of debris entering your gutters and minimize how often cleaning is needed. Guards are a practical upgrade for homes surrounded by mature trees common in many Chestermere neighbourhoods.

Calgary Weather and Your Roof: What Every Homeowner Should Know
Calgary’s climate puts exceptional stress on roofing systems. Understanding seasonal patterns helps you plan maintenance and catch problems early.
Hail season runs from June through August. Calgary sits in one of the most active hail corridors in Canada. Impact-resistant shingles rated Class 3 or Class 4 can reduce damage and may qualify for insurance discounts. We install hail-rated products from all three of our certified manufacturers.
Chinook cycles bring rapid temperature swings that cause shingles to expand and contract repeatedly. Over time, this loosens adhesive strips and creates gaps where wind-driven rain can enter. Regular inspections after chinook events help catch lifting before leaks develop.
Winter snow loads are a concern on flat and low-slope roofs. Proper drainage design and membrane selection prevent ponding water that freezes and damages the roof structure. On steep-slope roofs, ice damming at the eaves is the primary winter risk. Proper attic ventilation and ice shield membranes installed along the eaves are the best prevention.
Spring melt season often reveals damage that accumulated over winter. We recommend booking a spring inspection each year to identify cracked flashing, worn sealant around vents, and any shingle damage from ice or heavy snow. Early detection keeps repair costs low and extends the life of your roof.
