Full ice-and-water low-slope shingle systems

Core Armour Exteriors Inc. is a Calgary flat roofing company specializing in commercial low-slope shingle systems - a durable, cost-effective alternative to traditional SBS and EPDM membranes. On low-pitch commercial roofs, we install low-slope-rated asphalt shingles over a full deck of ice-and-water shield, not just the 36 inches of membrane that building code requires at the eaves.

That single upgrade turns the entire roof into a waterproof surface underneath the shingles, giving you membrane-level protection at a shingle-level price.

The advantage

Why this beats standard SBS and EPDM for many buildings

For the right roof, our full-membrane shingle system delivers several clear advantages.

Lower cost

You get a fully waterproofed deck without paying the premium of a two-ply SBS or fully-adhered EPDM system.

A redundant waterproof layer

The shingles are the first line of defence; the continuous ice-and-water membrane is a sealed backup across the entire roof.

Proven materials

Asphalt shingles and self-adhering membrane are well understood, widely available, and easy to service.

A cleaner install

No open-flame torch-down work over an occupied commercial building.

Familiar curb appeal

A finished shingle surface that looks like a quality residential roof, not exposed black rubber.

Our specialty: full ice-and-water shingle systems

Most low-slope commercial roofs in Calgary are built with SBS modified bitumen or EPDM rubber. Both work - and both come with a higher material and labour cost, plus torches, adhesives, or heat welding on your building.

On qualifying low-slope roofs, we apply self-adhering ice-and-water shield across 100% of the roof deck, then install low-slope-rated shingles on top. By carrying the membrane edge to edge - over the field, the valleys, and every penetration - we eliminate the vulnerable seams where low-slope roofs typically start to leak. The shingles handle the sun, wind, and hail; the continuous membrane underneath handles the water.

Is your building a candidate?

This system is ideal for commercial and multi-unit buildings with low-slope roofs that still shed water in one direction - the kind of pitch that's too shallow for a standard shingle install but doesn't demand a full membrane system.

During our assessment we confirm the slope, check the current roof and deck condition, and tell you honestly whether our full ice-and-water shingle system is the smart choice or whether your building genuinely needs a membrane. You get a recommendation based on your roof, not on what we'd prefer to sell.

Flat roof repair in Calgary

Not every low-slope roof needs replacing. We also handle flat roof repair across Calgary - tracking down leaks, resealing failed flashing and penetrations, and correcting the seam and edge details where water is getting in.

If a repair will genuinely buy you good years, we'll repair it. If the roof is at the end of its life and repairs would just be throwing money at it, we'll say so and show you the numbers on a full system instead.

Engineered for Alberta

Built for Calgary's climate

Low-slope roofs are the hardest-working surfaces on any Calgary building - holding snow load through winter, enduring standing meltwater during chinooks, and taking the full force of summer hail with no steep pitch to help water run off.

Snow & meltwater

A continuous, self-adhering barrier doesn't rely on a dozen field seams staying watertight through freeze-thaw.

Summer hail

Low-slope-rated shingles take the impact up top while the sealed membrane protects the deck below.

Sealed, not seamed

That's why we trust a full ice-and-water membrane as the foundation of every low-slope roof we build.
