Quick answers

  • Should a new roof have vents? Yes. Regina has recorded 43.9 C in July and -50.0 C in January, and a badly vented attic bakes at one end of that range and traps moisture at the other.
  • What are signs you need a new roof? On Lakeview, Crescents and Cathedral Area houses: roofs many cycles deep, with worn asphalt that gets brittle and cracks fast in the cold.
  • How long does roof replacement take? One day for most Regina replacements once booked and staged, sometimes a second day on larger or steeper roofs.

Local roofers

Serving the Regina community

  • Local expertise you can trust

    We know Regina, from The Crescents and Lakeview to Harbour Landing and The Greens on Gardiner, and we build to Saskatchewan code for our climate. A two-sided market: pre-WWI and 1920s-boom heritage homes (steep pitches, original detailing, full re-roof candidates) in the Crescents, Lakeview and Cathedral, plus high-volume new asphalt-shingle subdivisions in Harbour Landing, The Greens and Westerra whose warranty-age roofs are now aging in.

  • Built for Regina's weather

    Regina sits in the most hail-prone part of Saskatchewan. Our roofing systems are built for it: ice and water shield at the eaves, full underlayment, GAF shingles, and proper ventilation so your home stays protected year-round.

Who stands behind the work

Certifications, accreditation and partners behind our Regina work

GAF

As a GAF Certified contractor, we install GAF systems with the GAF Timberline HDZ shingle as our workhorse, and every install carries a 10-year workmanship warranty.

HAAG

We are HAAG Certified, so storm damage gets inspected the way an adjuster inspects it, and cosmetic marks get told apart from bruising that shortens a roof’s life.

Better Business Bureau

We are a BBB Accredited Business with an A rating, listed in Saskatoon.

Financeit

Our financing runs through Financeit, so a roof can be spread over monthly payments instead of paid all at once.

Local challenges

Common roofing challenges in Regina, SK

Regina sits on a broad, flat, treeless plain where every one of the roughly 300,000 trees was planted by hand, and both of those facts show up on the roofs.

Ice damming on a flat, exposed plain
There is no natural shelter on Regina's plain, so wind moves snow across a roof and piles it where it wants to. The freeze-thaw at the eaves then builds ice dams that force water back up under the shingles.
Aging roofs in Lakeview, the Crescents and the Cathedral Area
Lakeview holds mansions dating from before the First World War through the post-war 1920s boom, and the Crescents and Cathedral Area are older still in character. Roofs on that stock are many cycles deep, and worn asphalt gets brittle and cracks fast in the cold.
Storm and wind damage
Regina has the worst tornado in Canadian history on its record: on 30 June 1912 a funnel roughly 150 metres wide, estimated at F4, tore from south of the city through the residential streets between Wascana Lake and Victoria Avenue and on through downtown. Nothing since has matched it, but wind still lifts and creases shingles and strips ridge caps, and hail bruises the mat under the granules where you cannot see it from the ground.
Attic ventilation across a 90 degree swing
Regina has recorded 43.9 C in July and -50.0 C in January. An attic that is not vented properly bakes at one end of that range and traps deck-rotting moisture at the other. Getting the venting right is half of why a roof lasts.
Elm leaf load and June rain in the eavestroughs
June is Regina's wettest month at about 75 mm, and the American elm is the dominant tree in a hand-planted urban forest of roughly 300,000. Leaf litter plus the year's heaviest rain is how troughs block, overflow and dump water against the foundation.

On a Regina roof we fix the cause, often elm leaves in the troughs or an ice dam at the eaves, rather than the wet spot.

All about Regina, SK

Originally 'Pile-of-Bones' (Cree Oskana ka-asasteki, 'the place where bones are piled'), renamed Regina - Latin for 'queen' - in 1882 for Queen Victoria. Today Regina is home to about 226,404 people.

Provincial capital: government and Crown corporations (SaskPower, SaskEnergy, SaskTel), the Co-op Refinery, RCMP Depot, agriculture and insurance. Wascana Centre and Lake, the Saskatchewan Legislative Building, the RCMP Heritage Centre, the Roughriders at Mosaic Stadium.

More about Regina

The city sits on a broad, flat, treeless plain, and every one of its roughly 300,000 trees was planted by hand, with the American elm still the dominant species in that urban forest.

Regina was made the territorial seat of government in 1882 by Lieutenant Governor Edgar Dewdney, who chose it over the better developed Battleford, Troy and Fort Qu'Appelle. The site was then called Pile-of-Bones, in Cree Oskana ka-asasteki, and was described at the time as arid and featureless grassland. Everything sheltering a Regina roof today was put there on purpose afterwards, which is worth remembering when you are deciding how much wind exposure your house actually has.

From The Crescents and Lakeview to Harbour Landing and The Greens on Gardiner, a solid roof matters here, because Saskatchewan weather does not let a worn one slide. We serve Regina with honest assessments, clean job sites, and a 10-year workmanship warranty on every roof we install, from emergency leak repairs to full replacements.

Permits and local resources in Regina

The City of Regina lists re-roofing with a similar type of roofing, no structural changes and no health or safety risk as work that does not need a building permit, so a straight re-roof often needs none. Heritage homes and structural work can be different, and our guide to roof replacement permits in Regina goes through what the City says. You can check the rules yourself here.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions, Regina roofing

How long does a roof replacement take in Regina?
Most Regina roof replacements are done in a single day once the job is booked and materials are staged. Larger or steeper roofs can run into a second day. Weather can shift the schedule, and we will always keep you posted. Regina's rain is heaviest May through August, and June is the wettest month at about 75 mm, so early summer is when an install date slides, if one does.
Do you provide a warranty on your Regina roofing work?
Yes. Every roof we install in Regina carries a 10-year workmanship warranty, on top of the GAF manufacturer warranty on the materials. If anything in our work needs attention in that window, we come back. We book Regina work from our Saskatoon base, about 250 km up Hwy 11, and warranty work is booked from there too.
How do you handle heavy snow loads and ice dams in Regina?
We install ice and water shield along the eaves to stop ice damming, full underlayment, and proper attic ventilation so heat and moisture do not get trapped. Regina has warm summers and cold, dry winters, with more than 70% of the year's precipitation falling in the six warmest months, and on the city's flat, open plain there is nothing to stop the wind moving that snow around.
Do you help with storm damage and SGI insurance claims in Regina?
Yes. We are HAAG Certified, so on a Regina roof we inspect the way an adjuster does, document everything with photos and video, and work alongside your adjuster so the approved scope reflects the real, storm-caused damage. In June 2026 hail hit the northwest edge of Regina, and we went down to inspect roofs and work the claims there.
Which areas of Regina do you serve?
We serve all of Regina, including The Crescents, Lakeview, Cathedral, Harbour Landing, The Greens on Gardiner, and the surrounding area. We also quote acreage and farm roofs around Saskatoon.
