FAQS
Things Calgarians Need to Know About Roofing
With Calgary’s unpredictable weather, roof repairs are often unavoidable. These FAQs can help you feel confident about your investment.
What kind of shingles does Big 5 use for roofing?
At Big 5, we use architectural shingles made from fibreglass tabs instead of the asphalt shingles found on many older Calgary homes. While standard asphalt shingles are flat and come in only one shape and size, architectural shingles have a more varied appearance.
What are the benefits of architectural shingles?
Architectural shingles have a longer average lifespan than traditional asphalt shingles. They also have a higher wind rating, as long as they’re properly installed by experienced professionals like us.
How long do architectural shingles last?
Standard asphalt shingles can last nearly 20 years with proper maintenance, but architectural shingles often last for 30 years or more. However, any type of roofing shingles can be damaged by extreme weather events. As us Calgarians know all too well, “hail happens”.
Are architectural shingles more expensive?
Architectural shingles are more expensive up front than asphalt shingles, but they offer greater value for money due to their longer lifespan. Contact Big 5 to get a better idea of how much it could cost to replace your roof with high-quality architectural shingles.
What brands does Big 5 use for architectural shingles?
We use BP Mystique and Malarkey brand architectural shingles for all roof replacements. BP Mystique shingles use Weather-Tite™ technology, while Malarkey shingles use upcycled materials to create resilient and environmentally responsible products.
How long does it take to replace your roof?
Our turnaround time for an average roof replacement in Calgary is about 3 business days from quote to completion. This includes removal of the old shingles and installation of the new ones. Larger houses may require more time.
What warranties cover your roof replacements?
All our architectural shingles come with a limited lifetime warranty that protects against defects in materials and manufacturing. Plus, our Big 5 installation warranty guarantees the quality of our work.
When should I have your roof replaced?
- Light or dark spots on your shingles (often missing granules)
- Shingles that curl up from the roof
- Widespread and visible mold, moss, or mildew
- Missing, dented, or broken shingles
- Your roof is more than 20 years old
