A new roof can be expensive. If you don’t have the cash, you should think of applying for financing. When you are financing home repair project, you are borrowing money from a lender. You will need to pay back these funds along with interest over the years. You will find roofing contractors with financing in Calgary who can help you get the best financing available.
First, you need to choose a suitable contractor for the job. It is not usually advisable to choose the contractor who offers you the lowest quote. You should hire a contractor who is experienced in installing your roof type and has good references. Then, you must find out the, estimated cost of the project. You should determine how much you can afford and how much you need to finance. Then look for the best financing deal in your area. Once you know the total cost of the project along with the interest, you can decide whether you need funding or not.
Financing can help you address unexpected expenses that may arise during your roofing project. Like all construction, during a roofing project, unexpected expenses may arise. These may include, damage that has occurred since the last roof, issues covered up by previous roofers, meeting new building/fire code, or even structural or building envelope issues that have been in place since construction (this is very common in homes that have been renovated and older homes). Even if you have the funds to replace your roof it may be beneficial to ensure you have financing in place to act as a contingency fund. This can be used to address funding short falls in the event of unexpected issues.

Birds are smart! They often seek to build nests in places that shelter them from the wind, sun and rain. A common place they choose is the space under your roofline or in your gutters. Birds also peck holes through broken roof shingles or roofing vents in order to build their nests.
One of the best ways to deal with birds repeatedly nesting in your roof is keeping your roof repaired and cleaned. Clear gutters, repaired roofing materials and a clean roof give birds much less opportunity to find nooks and crannies to nest in.
If you are hearing birds in and around your roof often and are concerned, give us a call at Claw Roofing. We can come out to review the state of your roof and recommend any necessary steps to keep those birds out!

People often dread cleaning their gutters but it can really make a difference for the safety of your roof and home!
Leaves, pinecones, twigs and organic matter accumulate and over time and will clog drainage and lead to water damage over time. Commercial roofing, flat roofing and asphalt shingles are all susceptible to possible water damage from improper drainage and pooling. Gutters can also become disconnected or damaged in storms or from snow and ice build-up.
To keep your home in good shape, we recommend cleaning your gutters twice a year, once in the fall and once in the spring.
When it comes to the actual cleaning, here are a few things to look for:
Unaddressed leaky skylights can create a host of long-term damage affecting your entire roof and even the health and wellbeing of your family.
Here are some of the things to watch for if you suspect your skylight may be leaking:
Lifting, cracked or depressed seals around the skylight

Flat roofing is a very specialized type of tar and gravel, torch-on roof that requires a skilled and certified installer.

A poorly installed flat roof system will experience leaks or in the worst case, collapse. You don’t want either of those situations, so you need the best flat roofers in Calgary, Claw Roofing!Â
