Jessica Cross , Calgary

Advanced Level Roofing took care of a major hail claim for us. Their team was extremely professional and responsive. We were able to get the repairs completed in less time than we hoped. Overall a great experience.

Yannick Rouette , Calgary

Advanced Level Roofing replaced the roof on my house in April 2025. The previous roof was damaged by hail and I paid for Class 4 hail-resistant shingles. They delivered the shingles on a Thursday and came for the removal and installation on Saturday. They did all the work in a single day, from 8 am to 4:30 pm. The employees were nice and careful. They cleaned everything around the house and passed their rolling magnet over my yard ten times to remove all nails. They sent me a photo inspection of the roof. I would recommend this company. Their prices are great.

Marie Woodward , Brooks

In November 2025, we had lots of damage to our mobile home from the hail storm that came through Brooks. Our insurance company recommended Advanced Level Roofing, which we went with. They replaced our roof, siding, and eavestroughs. We are very happy with the work they did on our place and would highly recommend them.
