Common Questions

Yes, the City of Edmonton requires a Home Improvement Permit for full roof installations, which typically costs between $150 and $500 depending on the project scope.

While manufacturers often cite 30+ years, Edmonton's extreme freeze-thaw cycles and hail typically limit the lifespan of standard asphalt shingles to 15–20 years.

Asphalt shingles average $4.50–$8.50 per sq ft installed ($7,000–$13,000 total), whereas metal roofing is a premium option ranging from $15 to $35 per sq ft ($20,000–$45,000+ total).

Effective March 1, 2026, new Roof Truss Engineering Requirements apply to projects involving structural changes, requiring authentication by an Alberta-licensed professional.
