We evaluate pitch, material condition, and specific requirements for your project while considering Calgary and Edmonton’s harsh weather demands. We then provide clear recommendations and precise measurements.

    Different Types of Roof Penetrations & Curbs

    Skylight Roof Penetration Curb must be perfectly constructed to prevent leaks while allowing maximum natural light. We build custom raised curbs with proper slope and install high-quality flashing systems that integrate seamlessly with your shingles or membrane roof. Our skylight roof penetration curb installations are engineered to handle heavy Alberta snow loads without sagging or leaking. We use reinforced framing and multi-layer waterproofing to ensure long-term performance, even during freeze-thaw cycles and ice dam formation common in Calgary and Edmonton winters. Homeowners enjoy bright interiors without worrying about water intrusion.

    Plumbing vent pipes are common roof penetrations that frequently cause leaks if not properly sealed. We install high-quality, flexible boot flashings or metal pitch pans designed specifically for Alberta’s climate. Our technicians ensure the flashing is correctly sized, sloped, and sealed to prevent ice buildup and water backup. Proper vent pipe installation eliminates one of the most common sources of attic and ceiling leaks in Calgary and Edmonton homes, providing reliable, maintenance-free performance year after year.

    Chimneys require complex step flashing, counter flashing, and often a custom cricket or saddle to divert water effectively. We specialize in full chimney curb and flashing systems that handle the unique challenges of Alberta weather. Our installations prevent water from entering where the chimney meets the roof, even under heavy snow and ice conditions. We use premium materials and time-tested techniques to deliver leak-free results that protect your home’s interior and maintain structural integrity.

    Installing solar panels requires carefully engineered roof penetrations and mounting curbs that maintain the roof’s waterproof integrity. We create custom flashed penetrations and elevated curbs that allow proper drainage and snow shedding while supporting the weight of solar arrays. Our systems are designed to withstand high winds and heavy snow loads typical in Calgary and Edmonton. You get reliable solar performance without compromising your roof’s protection or warranty.

    Best Materials for Roof Penetrations & Curbs

    Choosing the right materials for roof penetrations and curbs is essential for durability in Calgary and Edmonton’s extreme climate. Materials must resist UV damage, freeze-thaw expansion, heavy snow loads, and wind uplift while maintaining flexibility and waterproofing integrity for decades. Quality materials ensure leak-free performance and protect your roof investment.

    Galvanized Steel Curbs

    Galvanized steel curbs offer exceptional strength and durability for residential roof penetrations. Coated with zinc for superior corrosion resistance, they easily handle Alberta’s heavy snow loads and high winds. We fabricate custom galvanized curbs with proper reinforcement and slope, making them ideal for skylights, HVAC units, and larger penetrations. Their rigidity and long lifespan make them a trusted choice for Calgary and Edmonton homeowners seeking robust, low-maintenance solutions.

    Aluminum Curbs & Flashings

    Aluminum is lightweight, highly corrosion-resistant, and widely used for roof curbs and flashings in Alberta. It offers excellent formability for custom shapes while resisting rust even in harsh freeze-thaw conditions. We use premium aluminum for custom curbs and step flashing, providing a clean appearance and reliable waterproofing. Aluminum’s natural resistance to oxidation makes it perfect for long-term performance on Calgary and Edmonton roofs exposed to snow, rain, and UV rays.

    Copper Flashings & Penetrations

    Copper provides unmatched elegance and longevity for roof penetrations and flashings. It develops a protective patina over time that prevents further corrosion, often lasting 50+ years. Copper flashing conforms beautifully around penetrations and offers superior malleability for complex chimney and skylight installations. While a premium option, copper is highly valued in Calgary and Edmonton for its beauty, durability, and ability to withstand Alberta’s demanding climate.

    PVC & TPO Membrane Curbs

    For flat or low-slope roofs, PVC and TPO membrane curbs deliver seamless, flexible waterproofing. These synthetic materials are highly resistant to UV, chemicals, and ponding water. We fabricate or install pre-formed curbs wrapped in matching membrane for perfect integration. Their flexibility during temperature swings makes them excellent for modern homes in Calgary and Edmonton, offering leak-proof performance with minimal maintenance.

    Stainless Steel Curbs

    Stainless steel curbs provide premium strength and maximum corrosion resistance, ideal for coastal-influenced or high-exposure areas in Alberta. They withstand extreme weather, salt, and pollution without rusting. We use 304 or 316 stainless for custom curbs and flashings where maximum durability is required. Though more expensive, stainless steel ensures decades of trouble-free service on Calgary and Edmonton roofs under the harshest conditions.
