Okotoks
Roof replacement, repair and exteriors for Okotoks homes, from a shop at the south end of Calgary just a short drive from your door. Every quote is in writing.
Close by
We're based off Midpark Way at the far south end of Calgary. Point the truck south and we're in Okotoks before the coffee goes cold, closer than half the driveways we quote inside the city.
That matters after the sale, not just before it. Follow-ups get booked in days. A warranty visit is a quick run down the highway, not a favour we have to schedule around. Pricing works like a Calgary job too: the same premium shingle lines as the default spec, nothing padded in for the drive.
We book Monday to Friday, 8 to 5. Call (403) 460-9394 or start with the form below.
Foothills weather
Chinook air spills off the mountains and the foothills catch it first. An Okotoks roof can go from minus twenty to bare and dripping in an afternoon, then freeze again before morning, a dozen or more times a winter.
Each swing makes the shingles expand and pull against their sealant bonds. Enough winters of that and you get fatigue: corners that curl, faces that crack underfoot, granules collecting in the eavestroughs well before the rated life is up. From the street it looks like nothing. Up close it decides whether a roof has five years left or one.
Fatigue in one spot is a repair. Fatigue across every slope calls for a roof inspection with photos first, and if that's all your roof needs this year, that's what we'll say.
Two ages of roofs
Okotoks grew in bursts, and the rooftops give it away.
Whole blocks here were shingled in the nineties, which puts any original roof at or past the end of its service life before the chinooks take their cut. If yours has never been replaced, price it on your schedule rather than the leak's. A typical asphalt replacement lands between $8,000 and $18,000, and our cost guide explains what moves the number.
The newer streets filling in around town have a different list. Builder-spec shingles don't always match the life of the mortgage, new eavestrough runs aren't always pitched right, and hail doesn't check the build date. We handle siding and soffit and fascia alongside the roofing, so one company fixes the whole exterior.
When hail does roll through, get the damage documented by someone local before signing whatever lands on the doorstep. Our hail damage guide and storm-chaser warning cover what to watch for. Beyond Okotoks we work across Calgary, Airdrie, Chestermere and Cochrane.
The local record
Chinooks do the slow damage here. Storms do the fast kind. Both are in the record.
Wind and storm records are Environment Canada's; hail-loss figures are industry-reported insured losses (Insurance Bureau of Canada and CatIQ estimates).
Tower Hill, Suntree and Woodhaven are the established streets, with the mature trees to prove it and roofs to match.
Cimarron started in 1997 and Crystal Shores went up in the early-to-mid 2000s, which puts their original roofs at 20 to 29 years old this year. Drake Landing, from 2005 on, and D'Arcy Ranch and Wedderburn are the newer end, where a roof inspection mostly checks the builder's spec.
The Town of Okotoks lists re-roofing with no structural work among the jobs that do not need a building permit. Structural changes do need one, and we file it before work starts.
Questions
No. Okotoks is the shortest out-of-town run we make, and jobs there are priced exactly like Calgary work. You get the quote in writing, and anything we find once work starts gets photographed and fixed only if it needs fixing.
Probably less than the shingle packaging promised. Freeze-thaw cycling along the foothills wears asphalt out ahead of schedule, and a roof from the nineties is already past the point where repairs keep paying off. We will photograph what we find and tell you straight whether it has seasons left or replacement is the smarter spend. Replacements carry our 15-year written workmanship warranty.
Calgary sits in Hailstorm Alley, and that corridor does not stop at the city limits. The August 2024 Calgary storm caused about $3.29 billion in insured damage by industry counts, and storms that size send door-knockers into every town nearby. If hail has been through your street, have the damage documented before you sign anything. We are HAAG-certified for residential roof inspections and will tell you plainly whether a claim is warranted.
No. The Town of Okotoks lists re-roofing with no structural work among the jobs that do not need a building permit. If your project changes the structure, a new dormer or a raised roofline, a permit applies and we file it before work starts.
It reaches here. On July 17, 2023, a line of severe storms dropped loonie- to ping-pong-ball-size hail on Okotoks for about ten minutes under a tornado warning, and a weak landspout touched down south of town. Smaller cells come through most summers. If your roof was under one, have it documented.
All of them. Tower Hill, Suntree and Woodhaven on the established side; Cimarron, Crystal Shores and Drake Landing from the late nineties and 2000s; D'Arcy Ranch, Wedderburn and the new streets still going up. Okotoks is our shortest out-of-town run, so none of them is a side trip.
Real numbers
Most roofers will not put a number in front of you until someone is standing in your kitchen. Here are four real roofs we quoted, and what each one came to.

Each price is a range because the shingle grade you pick moves the number. The cedar tear-off runs higher than the asphalt roofs at a similar size, because stripping cedar and rebuilding the deck is a bigger job than a reshingle. See the full breakdown.
