JFK SURFACES × COOK’S CONTRACTING IN LACOMBE
Real roofing experience, serving Lacombe from Red Deer.
Roofing is Dustin Cook’s specialty. Through our partnership with Cook’s Contracting & Build Co., we bring deep roofing expertise to every job — not just “a guy with a nail gun” but a proper roofing crew that knows ventilation, ice damming, valley flashing, and what actually makes a roof last 25+ years in Central Alberta weather.
Lacombe has a mix of older neighborhoods (downtown, around Henderson Park) with original 1960s-1980s roofs that have seen multiple re-roofs, plus the newer subdivisions on the east and south sides where roof failures are starting to appear on the original 20-year shingles. We handle both, and everything in between.
WHAT WE DO
Every kind of roofing work Lacombe homeowners need.
Full asphalt re-roof
Tear off old shingles, inspect and replace damaged sheathing, ice-and-water shield in valleys and at eaves, full underlayment, new shingles, proper flashing.
Metal roofing
Standing seam or metal shingle. Higher upfront cost, longer lifespan, better in heavy snow and high wind. We install for the long haul.
Roof repairs
Targeted repairs for leaks, missing shingles, flashing failures, ridge cap damage, soffit and fascia repair. We assess what's worth repairing vs. what's better re-roofed.
Emergency leak response
Active leak? We come tarp it, stop the immediate damage, and schedule the real repair. Same week, in most cases.
Hail damage insurance work
We work with your insurance adjuster, document the damage, and complete the repair to spec. Direct billing where supported.
Ventilation upgrades
Most roof failures are ventilation failures. We assess soffit intake, ridge venting, and attic airflow — and fix what’s undersized.
LACOMBE SPECIFICS
What’s different about roofing in Lacombe.
Hail country. Central Alberta gets some of the worst hail in Canada. Lacombe has been hit hard multiple times in the last decade. Impact-rated shingles are worth the small premium — we’ll talk through options at the quote.
Ice damming season. Our freeze-thaw cycles cause ice dams at eaves and in valleys. Proper ice-and-water shield underlayment in those areas is non-negotiable — we install it on every job, regardless of whether the spec sheet calls for the minimum.
Wind loading. Prairie wind hits Lacombe hard. We install with extra fasteners on edges and ridges, and use shingles rated for the wind speeds we actually see — not the average suburban-Ontario rating.
Ventilation is often the real problem. When we’re called for a “leaking roof,” it’s sometimes condensation from poor attic ventilation. We diagnose properly before we re-roof.

FAQ
Common questions about roofing in Lacombe.
Do I need a permit to re-roof my house in Lacombe?
A standard residential re-roof (same material, same configuration) typically doesn't require a Building Permit in Lacombe. If you're changing roof structure, adding skylights, doing significant structural changes, or switching materials in a way that changes loading, a permit may be required. We verify with the City of Lacombe for every project.
How long does an asphalt shingle re-roof take?
Most residential re-roofs take 1–3 days of active work, depending on size, slope complexity, and weather. We schedule weather windows carefully — you don't want your roof open when a storm hits Central Alberta.
Asphalt or metal — which is better for Lacombe?
Both work. Asphalt is lower upfront cost, 20–30 year life depending on grade. Metal is higher upfront cost, 40–70+ year life, better in heavy snow and wind. We walk through both at the quote.
Do you handle hail damage roofs and insurance work?
Yes. Central Alberta gets serious hail and we work with homeowners on insurance-covered hail damage roofs regularly. We inspect, document, and quote in a format your adjuster can work with.
Do you offer emergency roof repair?
Yes — emergency leak response, tarping, and temporary repairs to prevent further water damage while the full repair is scheduled. Call us if you have an active leak.
Do you do roofing outside Lacombe?
Yes — Red Deer, Sylvan Lake, Innisfail, Blackfalds, Penhold, Olds, Ponoka, Red Deer County, Rocky Mountain House.
