We hired Sure West Roofing for an inspection. Craig was a pleasure to deal with, genuine and fair. Didn't try to sell me a new roof, but gave an honest opinion on how much life the roof has.
Roof and Attic Inspection
in Cochrane, Alberta
Red Seal Journeyman supervised roof and attic inspections in Cochrane, Calgary, and Canmore. Photo-documented written report for buyers, sellers, and insurers.

Cochrane Roof and
Attic Inspections We Offer
Most Cochrane roof and attic inspections fall into one of three categories. Each one uses the same crew, the same checklist, and the same photo-documented report, tailored to your situation.

Pre-Purchase or Pre-Sale Inspection
Independent roof condition report for buyers or sellers, often paired with a general home inspection. We document remaining lifespan, repair priorities, and replacement cost ranges. Findings translate directly into negotiating leverage, in writing, with photos.

Post-Storm / Claim Inspection
Photo-documented hail and wind damage report built to Alberta insurer documentation standards. Includes itemised scope and damage classification. Equally useful if you are paying out of pocket and want a clear written record of damage.

Maintenance Inspection
Yearly inspection that catches lifted shingles, cracked sealant, and minor flashing problems before they become leaks. Often paired with a maintenance visit. Recommended on roofs over five years old, especially after Cochrane winter.

Attic Inspection for Winter Drips and Ceiling Stains
Cochrane winters drive attic problems. Warm interior air meets the cold underside of the roof deck, condenses into moisture, and shows up as ceiling stains or winter drips that look like a roof leak. We inspect from inside the attic: insulation coverage and depth, ventilation balance, vapour barrier integrity, and moisture staining at the deck. Often the fix is not a roof repair, and we will tell you so straight.
When to Book a Roof and
Attic Inspection in Cochrane
A roof inspection is the cheapest insight your Cochrane roof can give you.
Here are six situations where booking one is the right call, claim or no claim.
Buying or selling a Cochrane home
Pre-purchase and pre-listing inspections give you negotiating leverage and remove a deal-breaker before it surfaces in the deal. The report carries weight with realtors, buyers, and sellers' lawyers.
After a hail or windstorm
Cochrane storms cause damage that often does not show from the ground. A post-storm inspection documents what happened with dated photos, useful whether you are filing a claim or paying direct.
Roof is 10 or more years old
Roofs over 10 years old have been through enough freeze-thaw and wind to develop early-stage issues. An inspection finds them while they are still cheap to fix, before they leak.
Insurance carrier requests one
Many Alberta insurers request a professional roof inspection at policy renewal or as part of a claim. Sure West provides the photo-documented report and written diagnosis your insurer needs.
Visible signs of wear from the ground
Curling shingles, missing tabs, granule buildup in gutters, or sagging rooflines visible from below mean the roof is asking for attention. Confirm what is actually happening before it becomes a leak inside the home.
Annual maintenance check
Most Cochrane homes benefit from one professional inspection per year. The cost is small compared to what early detection saves on repairs, and it builds a documented history of the roof.

Tap and hold to pause
Craig performed a roofing inspection on our new build, since we didn't trust the builder's assessment saying there were no deficiencies. Craig found multiple deficiencies, took pictures of everything, and summarized it all in a report.
I sought out this company to replace my aging roof due to their solid reputation in the community. They did not disappoint. Very pleased right from the start with competitive pricing, good product and professional service.
Sure West's pricing was a bit better than the other contractor I had quote the job, and Craig sure knows his stuff. The crew put down tarps all around the house and used a magnetic rake. These guys are the real deal.
My roof had a major leak and they repaired the valley that was leaking and informed me the other two would fail soon as well. They gave me a fair price to repair all three and it has been over a year with no issues.
Had a problem with lifting tiles caused by wind damage. Sure West showed up early the next morning. Instead of giving an estimate, Mike fixed it on the spot. He had all the tools and equipment in his truck.
I had a leak in a complicated roof. They were incredibly fast with their quote, and with a forecast showing rain they put me in high priority and came out and repaired the roof. Excellent company and excellent service.
Sure West did a great job on updating our eavestroughs and adding in downspouts to our 2nd story. They also installed a downspout with divider for our rain barrel set up. Highly recommend.
They replaced our damaged downspouts and were very thorough in securing and sealing them, as it is very windy in our area. Looks and functions so much better. Very friendly and professional, I highly recommend their services.
From start to finish, very professional company. Craig sat down with us and explained our options and guided us through what was best for us. The new roof and skylight look amazing.
I've had Sure West come fix some small issues with my roof a few times. They are always honest and do great work.
I decided to replace two gooseneck vents. Craig was informative when I first inquired. Kyle was friendly and professional, completed all work quickly, and explained the process in detail. Everything went smoothly.
Sure West Roofing fixed our roof after a couple of bad wind storms. They also replaced aluminum fascia down the side of the house and did a great job finding a colour match. Quick and easy responses and service.
Sure West installed a ridge vent on our home as we had concerns about ventilation for the vaulted ceilings. They took photos and showed us the work before, during, and after. The price was exactly as quoted.
Very professional and responsive team. From the time I called for a quote to when the last shingle was installed I was impressed by the quality of the team and the service provided. The site was left clean every day and the end product looks great.
Sure West Roofing is a serious and professional company. They are 100% reliable. The crew's professionalism, courtesy, punctuality, and efficiency made a positive difference. We are very happy with the job they did and fully recommend them.

What Sets a Sure West
Roof and Attic Inspection Apart
Five responsibilities we've taken on, five things every Sure West roof and attic inspection gets that the average Cochrane crew can't match.
Legacy
The Report We Sign Our Name To
Every inspection report we sign is one we would stand behind in Cochrane long after the visit. Honest findings, accurate severity ratings, no inflating issues to push a sale, no missing problems to keep a job small. The report we leave is the reputation we leave.
Brotherhood
A Tight-Knit Crew
A team that has each other’s backs on the roof and off. Tight-knit, cohesive, aligned in purpose, because the work is too hard to do alongside people you cannot respect. Anyone in a Sure West uniform is held to the same standard, every Cochrane inspection.
Character
The Report That Doesn't Sell You
We will not inflate a small issue into a full replacement quote. We will not bury a real problem to avoid a tough conversation. The inspection is the inspection, the same whether you book the work with us or take the report elsewhere.
Competency
Red Seal Journeyman Standard
Red Seal Journeyman is the highest trade credential in Canadian roofing. Inspections done right means every slope walked, attic checked inside, flashings and penetrations evaluated, findings classified accurately. The parts a quick visual misses, we find first.
Proven Processes
Same Checklist, Every Roof
Same checklist on every Cochrane roof. Same photo-documentation standard. Same severity ratings, same report format, same one-business-day delivery. Whether your inspection is for a buyer, a seller, an insurer, or yourself, the standard does not change.
