Rubber roofing is a smart, long-term solution for warehouses, retail centres, and commercial buildings, offering superior weather resistance, flexibility, and energy efficiency. Whether you’re upgrading, repairing, or installing new, it’s built to last in Edmonton’s harsh climate.
Cedar roof conversions for commercial properties like condos, restaurants, and heritage-style buildings offer the charm of the original structure with the low-maintenance benefits of shingles or Euroshield® rubber—enhancing durability, fire resistance, and long-term value without compromising aesthetics.
Whether it’s fixing storm damage, installing on new commercial units, or replacing worn materials, shingle roofing offers reliable, cost-effective coverage with a professional appearance that suits retail, hospitality, and multi-unit properties alike.
At Best Top Roofing, we help businesses make cost-effective, long-lasting decisions when it comes to commercial roof repair and replacement. Whether you operate a restaurant, retail store, condo complex, motel, hotel, apartment building, or shopping centre, your roofing system is vital to protecting assets, staff, and customers—especially in Edmonton’s demanding climate.
Cedar roofs, while attractive, are rarely practical for commercial use. They require frequent maintenance, are vulnerable to mold and rot, and have higher installation costs. In Edmonton’s freeze-thaw cycles and variable humidity, they deteriorate quickly without ongoing attention. Converting to asphalt shingles offers a cleaner look, easier maintenance, greater fire safety, and lower lifetime costs. Architectural-grade shingles are durable, energy-efficient, and backed by strong manufacturer warranties—ideal for high-traffic properties like apartment buildings and multi-unit residences.
For flat or low-slope roofs—common in restaurants, hotels, motels, retail outlets, and shopping plazas—rubber roofing systems like EPDM or TPO offer unmatched value. These systems can last 30–50 years with minimal maintenance, are resistant to pooling water and UV damage, and remain flexible in Edmonton’s extreme temperatures. Rubber roofs also provide excellent thermal insulation, helping reduce HVAC load and energy costs—an essential advantage for large buildings with high occupancy or operating hours.
Our team offers expert assessments, honest consultations, and tailored commercial roofing services. Whether it’s targeted repairs for localized leaks or a complete commercial roof replacement, we deliver efficient, durable solutions that meet building codes, safety standards, and your bottom line.
Invest in a roof that performs as hard as your business.
Look for signs like missing, cracked, or curled shingles, water stains on ceilings or walls, sagging roof sections, and granules in your gutters. If your roof is nearing the end of its typical lifespan (15-30 years for asphalt shingles, longer for other materials), it might be time for a replacement.
It’s recommended to have your roof inspected at least once a year, preferably in the spring and fall, to catch minor issues before they become major problems. After severe weather events like heavy storms or hail, an additional inspection is also a good idea.
Common signs include roof leaks, missing or damaged shingles, water stains, moisture buildup in the attic, sagging areas, and granule loss from shingles. Keep an eye on your gutters for excessive shingle granules.
The lifespan varies by material. Asphalt shingles typically last 15-30 years, metal roofs can last 40-70 years, and some premium materials like slate can last over a century with proper maintenance.10 Edmonton’s climate can impact lifespan, so choosing durable, weather-resistant materials is key.
Popular and effective roofing materials for Edmonton’s climate include asphalt shingles (cost-effective and versatile), metal roofing (durable and energy-efficient), and rubber roofing (resistant to hail and temperature fluctuations). Consider factors like durability, snow shedding capability, and resistance to temperature swings.
