When a repair is the right answer

Hail damage falls on a spectrum. A repair makes sense when:

Damage is limited to one or two slopes. Storms often come from one direction, so the west or north faces may take most hits while the rest of the roof is fine.
Soft metals took the hits, not the shingles. Dented roof vents, a crushed ridge vent or a punctured furnace cap can be replaced on their own.
Only a few shingles are broken. Large single stones can crack individual shingles without bruising the whole field.
The roof is young. A five-year-old roof with a few broken tabs is worth repairing. A 20-year-old roof with the same damage often is not.

Replacement makes more sense when there are several bruises in a 10 × 10 ft test square on most slopes, when the shingles are brittle enough to crack as we lift them, or when matching shingles are no longer made. Our repair vs replace guide walks through that decision in detail.

What a hail repair involves

Inspection and marking. We mark every damaged shingle and every dented component, and photograph them.
Material matching. We identify the shingle brand and line from the shingle itself or your records, and order the closest current match.
Careful removal. Hail-damaged roofs are often brittle in the cold. We break the seal strips on surrounding shingles gently so we do not create new damage.
Replacement. New shingles go in with the manufacturer’s nailing pattern. Damaged vents, boots and flashing are replaced, not caulked over.
Sealing and clean-up. We hand-seal the repaired area, magnet-sweep for nails and clear granules from the eavestroughs.
Photo record. You get before and after photos for your files, and for your insurer if the repair is part of a claim.

Repairs and your insurance claim

If the repair is part of an insurance claim, the adjuster’s estimate sets the scope. We review that estimate line by line against what we found, and flag anything missing, such as a dented vent or damaged drip edge, so you can ask the adjuster to revisit it. We help document damage and work with your adjuster. We are not public adjusters and do not negotiate your settlement.

If the repair costs less than your deductible, we will say so before you file a claim you would not collect on.

Emergency repairs after a storm

If hail has opened a hole or water is coming in, we can tarp the roof the same day in most cases. See emergency roof tarping. Keep the receipt, because temporary repairs to prevent further damage are usually part of the claim.

Calgary shingles we repair

We work on the asphalt shingle lines most common in Calgary subdivisions built from the 1990s on, including three-tab and architectural (laminate) shingles. For older or discontinued lines, we tell you up front if a seamless match is not possible. If the repair would leave an obvious patch on a front slope, we show you the options, including replacing that full slope.

Repair cost vs your deductible: a worked example

Here is how the numbers often play out. These are illustrative figures, not quotes:

	Small repair	Two-slope repair	Full replacement
Typical cost	$900	$3,200	$16,000
Deductible	$1,000	$1,000	$1,000
Insurer pays	$0	$2,200	$15,000
Worth a claim?	No, pay privately	Usually yes	Yes

Some Alberta policies have a separate, higher deductible for wind and hail. Check your declarations page before deciding. We give you the repair price before you call your insurer, so you know which column you are in.

Wind damage after chinooks

Chinooks bring strong, gusty west winds. Shingles that weren’t nailed correctly, or whose seal strips never bonded, lift and crease along the top edge. Once creased, a shingle no longer seals and the next wind tears it off. Hail-bruised shingles lose their grip even faster.

Look for shingles with a visible line across the tab, pieces in the yard after a windy day, or ridge caps missing along the peak. We reseal lifted shingles that are still sound and replace creased ones. Wind damage is usually covered under the same home policy as hail.

We won’t caulk over a dented vent or a cracked boot and call it fixed. Caulk dries out in Calgary’s sun and freeze-thaw cycles within a season or two, and the leak comes back. We also won’t patch a roof that is clearly at the end of its life just to make a sale. When that is the case, we explain the repair vs replace decision and let you choose.

Frequently asked questions

Can you repair a hail-damaged roof instead of replacing it?

Yes, when the damage is limited. If hits are confined to one or two slopes, or the damage is to vents, flashing and a handful of shingles, a repair is usually the right call. If most slopes have multiple bruised shingles per test square, a repair only delays the inevitable and insurers will usually approve a replacement.

Will repaired shingles match the rest of my roof?

We source the same brand, line and colour when it is still made. Even then, new shingles look slightly different from ones that have weathered for years. When an exact match is discontinued, we show you the closest options before we start. Some policies address matching, so ask your adjuster if a mismatch concerns you.

How much does hail roof repair cost in Calgary?

Small repairs such as replacing a few shingles or a dented vent usually run from about $450 to $1,200. Repairs across a full slope with new underlayment can reach $2,500 to $3,500. If the total is near your deductible, paying privately may make more sense than claiming.

Is it safe to leave minor hail damage until next year?

Not usually. A shingle with a cracked mat lets water reach the underlayment, and Calgary's freeze-thaw cycles and chinook winds make small openings grow. Get it repaired or at least documented before winter.

Do you repair roofs damaged by wind as well as hail?

Yes. Calgary storms often bring both. We reseal or replace creased and lifted shingles, fix ridge cap blow-offs, and secure flashing. Wind damage is usually covered by the same home policy as hail.

Do you warranty hail repairs?

Yes. Every repair comes with our written workmanship warranty (10-year workmanship warranty on full replacements; repair terms are written on your invoice). We photograph the repair before and after so you have a record.

Read before you decide

Repair or Replace Your Roof After Hail? How to Decide
Repair a hail-damaged roof when the damage is limited to a few shingles, one or two slopes, or the metal components. Replace it when most slopes have multiple bruised shingles, the shingles are brittle, or a matching repair is impossible. On insurance claims, the adjuster's assessment of hits per slope usually decides.
Signs of Hail Damage on Your Roof (and How to Check Safely)
The clearest signs of hail damage on a roof are dents in soft metal (vents, flashing, gutters), dark spots where granules were knocked off, and shingles that feel soft when pressed. Most of these can't be seen from the ground, but the clues around your house usually tell you whether a roof inspection is worth booking.
