Professional Hail Damage Roof Repair You Can Trust
Calgary sits in the heart of Canada's Hailstorm Alley. The 2024 hailstorm caused $2.8 billion in damage — the most costly hailstorm in Canadian history — and the 2020 event before it caused $1.4 billion. After every major Alberta hailstorm, thousands of Calgary homeowners need a documented inspection to understand the extent of damage to their roof. Our experienced inspectors climb every roof, photograph every impact with timestamped documentation, and produce a detailed written damage report covering every slope, valley, and penetration.
Common Causes in Calgary Homes
We see these patterns repeatedly across Calgary and area. Knowing the cause helps us respond faster and recommend the right solution.
Major Calgary Hailstorms
Calgary averages a significant hailstorm every 2-3 years and a catastrophic event every 6-10. The 2024 storm hit NE + SE quadrants hardest; the 2020 storm devastated NE Calgary. Hailstones over 25mm almost always require full shingle replacement, not just repair.
Cumulative Damage From Smaller Storms
Multiple smaller hail events (15-25mm) over a season cause cumulative granule loss that shortens shingle life by 30-50%. This damage is invisible from the ground but obvious from a roof inspection — and almost always missed by homeowners until it shows up as a leak years later.
Soft-Metal Damage as Verification
We document soft metals — fascia, vents, gutters, AC fins — to verify and record exactly when a hailstorm hit your property. Every dent is photographed to establish a complete, timestamped damage baseline for your property file.
Skylight & Eavestrough Damage
Skylight and eavestrough damage is often missed in a basic ground-level check. We document every component during the on-roof inspection and include it in the written report — typically $1,500-$4,000 of additional damage homeowners weren't aware of.
Underlayment & Deck Damage
Severe hail penetrates shingles and damages the underlayment beneath. Without replacement, the deck rots from trapped moisture within 2-3 winters. This is often the difference between a $5,000 repair and a $15,000 replacement.

Hail Damage Repair FAQs
Common questions about hail damage roof repair in Calgary, AB.
How soon after a hailstorm should I get my Calgary roof inspected?
Within 7-14 days is ideal. Strike marks are clearest in the first few weeks — the longer you wait, the harder it gets to distinguish fresh hail impacts from normal weathering. We prioritize post-storm inspection bookings and typically slot you within 48 hours of a major hail event.
What happens if the inspection finds no significant damage?
We tell you that straight. If the hail was too small or the roof is in good shape, we document the inspection date and findings in writing — that baseline is valuable for future reference. There's no charge and no obligation if we find nothing worth repairing.
What does the inspection report include?
A timestamped photo of every hail impact on your roof, a roof diagram marking damage locations, granule-loss measurements at multiple points, soft-metal verification photos (fascia, vents, gutters), pitch and material identification, and estimated remaining shingle life. You receive a written report you keep regardless of whether you proceed with us.
Is there an obligation to hire you after the inspection?
No — we inspect, produce the written report, and hand it to you. You own it regardless of what you decide to do next. If the hail wasn't significant, we document the inspection date and findings as a baseline for future reference. No pressure, no follow-up sales calls.
Can you spot hail damage from the ground?
Some. Visible signs include shingle granules collecting in your downspouts, dented gutters or fascia, dented vent caps and AC condenser fins, and dimpled siding. But the most accurate damage assessment requires an on-roof inspection — many roofs that look fine from the ground have substantial damage visible only at close range.
What if the damage is minor — is it worth repairing?
We give you an honest assessment. Minor hail that hasn't compromised the granule layer typically doesn't warrant immediate repair. We'll document what we find, note the estimated remaining life, and recommend when to revisit. Our goal is to tell you the truth, not to create work.
Do you only work on hail-damaged roofs?
No — hail is our specialty but we handle full roof replacements, leak repairs, eavestrough work, flat roofs, metal roofing, skylight repair, and routine roof inspections across the Calgary metro.
