Overview
Rain Roofing provides commercial roofing services in Edmonton and the surrounding industrial region for warehouses, plants, institutions and retail plazas. We work on low-slope roofs only. That focus lets us offer every service a flat roof needs over its working life, delivered by the same company that knows the roof's history.
A commercial roof is a 20 to 30 year asset that sits under snow for five months, ponds in the spring melt and takes hail in the summer. How long it lasts depends on four things: how well it was built, how well it is maintained, how quickly problems are fixed, and whether the contractor is still around to honour the warranty. Our services are organized around those four things.
Maintain it
Spring and fall inspections, drain cleaning and minor repairs on a schedule, with a photo report for your files after every visit.
Respond fast
A 24/7 emergency line answered by a person, with a crew on site within 4 hours for active leaks.
Stand behind it
Written workmanship warranties of up to 10 years, plus manufacturer and ARCA warranties where the system qualifies.

Commercial roofing services that build it right the first time
Most roof problems we are called to fix were built in on day one: a drain set too high, a flashing that stops short, insulation laid without slope. Our new construction and roof replacement work starts with drainage and detailing, because those are the parts of an Edmonton roof that freeze-thaw cycles find first.
On replacement projects we survey the existing roof before we price it, so you get a real choice between a full tear-off and a recover over dry insulation, with the reasons written down.
- New construction roofing for general contractors and owners
- Roof replacement: tear-off and recover
- Roof drainage corrections and tapered insulation
Maintain it so it reaches its full service life
A flat roof that is inspected twice a year and kept clear at the drains will usually outlast one that is only visited when it leaks. Our inspection and maintenance programs cover spring and fall visits, drain clearing, sealant and flashing touch-ups, and a written report with photos and a marked roof plan.
Many manufacturer warranties expect documented maintenance. Our reports give you that record, and they give your capital plan real numbers instead of guesses.
- Spring and fall inspections and maintenance programs
- Infrared and moisture surveys
- Restoration coatings where the roof is a good candidate
- Roof snow removal
Respond fast when weather wins
Leaks rarely wait for business hours. When you call our emergency line, a person answers, takes the details and dispatches a crew. We make the roof watertight, document what we found and come back to complete the permanent repair when conditions allow.
After hail or a heavy snow year, we assess the damage and prepare the photos and notes your insurer and adjuster will ask for.
- 24/7 emergency leak repair
- Flat roof repair for all common membranes
- Hail damage assessment and repair
- Leak detection
Stand behind every roof
Every roof we install comes with a written workmanship warranty, and we keep a history file for every building we work on: installation records, inspection reports, repairs and warranty documents. If you call us in year eight, we already know your roof. See our warranties page for how the manufacturer, contractor and ARCA layers fit together.
The difference
Fixed once. Documented. Warrantied.
Drag across a real-world example of what a replacement changes: the slope, the seams, the drain, and how long the roof will last.
Questions
What facility managers ask us
Do you only work on flat roofs?
Yes. We work on low-slope commercial and industrial roofs, plus the metal flashings, cladding details and rooftop equipment curbs that tie into them. We do not do residential or shingle work.
Can one contractor handle our whole portfolio?
That is how most of our property and facility management clients work with us. One maintenance program, one emergency number and one set of reports across every building, with pricing set per site. Portfolio programs are available across the Edmonton region.
Which areas do you cover?
Edmonton and the surrounding industrial areas, including Nisku and Leduc, Acheson, Fort Saskatchewan and the Industrial Heartland, Sherwood Park, St. Albert, Spruce Grove and Stony Plain.
Can you send safety and insurance documents before we award work?
Yes. We can provide our COR certificate, a current WCB-Alberta clearance letter, proof of liability insurance with hot-work coverage and our ISNetworld, Avetta and ComplyWorks status for your prequalification file.
