Calgary · New-Generation Roof Service

Know your roof —
before the leak.

A thermal drone scans your home from the air and finds hidden leaks, attic moisture, and ice-dam damage before they reach your ceiling. No one ever steps on your roof.

Thermal inspection from $300 — credited toward any repair we carry out.

Emergency Response

Active leak right now? We find it fast — and fix it.

Don't wait for the ceiling to give. We deploy a thermal drone, locate the source without tearing anything open, and carry out a targeted repair — often the same visit, when access and conditions allow. Find with the drone, fix on site, get the report.

How It Works

Inspect. Find. Fix. Verify.

One system instead of a sales pitch. We diagnose the roof from the air, repair only what's broken, and prove the leak is gone.

STEP 01

Inspect

A radiometric thermal drone scans every plane of your roof — non-destructive, nobody on the deck, acres in a single flight.

STEP 02

Find

Moisture and heat loss show up as temperature. You get exact coordinates and an area-of-saturation map — not a guess.

STEP 03

Fix

We project-manage the repair with vetted local crews. Repair first, replace only when needed — no paying to tear off a sound roof. Every repair is backed by a workmanship warranty.

STEP 04

Verify

A follow-up thermal pass proves the leak is actually gone — and you keep the before / after report for your records or insurer.

Fix It Small

We fix the leak — not the whole roof.

Most leaks are a patch, not a replacement. We find the exact spot with a thermal drone and repair just that — before it turns into a tear-off.

The pinpoint fix
  • Thermal scan locates the exact entry point — down to the seam.
  • We repair just that spot, through vetted local crews.
  • A fraction of the cost of a full replacement.
  • Repair first — replacement only when the roof genuinely needs it.
  • Backed by a workmanship warranty.
The full tear-off
  • Guesswork from the ground or a quick ladder look.
  • The whole roof replaced "to be safe."
  • Thousands more than the leak actually called for.
  • Insulation that was still dry — torn off anyway.

Built for Calgary

Engineered for the climate that wrecks roofs.

Chinooks, Hail Alley, and ice dams each attack a roof differently — and a thermal scan sees the damage they leave behind, usually before you can.

Chinook freeze–thaw

Rapid 30°C swings cycle shingles, seals, and flashings through constant expansion and contraction — cracking adhesives and lifting edges until water finds a way in.

We map the heat-loss & stress patterns →

Hail Alley impact

Golf-ball hail strips protective granules and leaves hairline fractures invisible from the ground. We document impact with high-resolution imagery and a 3D model for an insurance-ready record — and, if replacement is warranted, scope premium Class 4 impact-resistant systems.

We build the claim-ready evidence →

Ice dams & moisture

Heat escaping a poorly balanced attic melts snow that refreezes at the cold eaves, forcing meltwater back under the shingles. Thermal scans reveal the trapped moisture — and the insulation and ventilation gaps driving it.

We find the moisture & the cause →

Flat-Roof Systems

EPDM or TPO? We scope both objectively.

Two very different membranes. The right one depends on your building, climate exposure, and how long you plan to hold the asset — not on what a contractor prefers to install.

EPDM

Synthetic rubber
  • 30–40+ year service life — built for harsh northern climates.
  • Flexes up to ~300% — absorbs extreme cold and thermal shock without cracking.
  • Dark surface sheds snow faster on flat roofs.
  • Adhesive seams — periodic inspection keeps them sound.

TPO

Thermoplastic polyolefin
  • Reflective "cool roof" — cuts the building's summer cooling load.
  • Hot-air-welded seams — monolithic and strong against wind uplift.
  • 20–30 year service life.
  • Periodic cleaning keeps the reflective surface working.

We don't sell membranes or favour a brand. We scan the roof, scope the right system for your building, and project-manage installation through vetted crews — so the spec is chosen on the roof's needs, not ours.

Commercial FAQ

Questions facility managers ask.

Straight answers on cost, downtime, deliverables, and why a healthy roof is exactly when scanning pays off.

Our roof looks fine — why scan it now?
Most commercial roof failures stay invisible until water reaches the deck or the space below — and by then the insulation has often been wet for months. Two thermal scans a year catch saturated insulation, membrane fatigue, and ponding early, while it's still a targeted repair instead of a full tear-off. A healthy roof today is exactly when an inspection is cheapest and most valuable.
How often should a commercial flat roof be scanned?
Twice a year is the sweet spot — once after winter, when freeze–thaw and snow load have taken their toll, and once before it — plus a scan after any major hail or wind event. Regular scans build a baseline, so we can see exactly what's changing on your roof year over year.
Will it disrupt operations or require roof access?
No. We scan from the air — nobody walks your roof, there's no scaffolding, no production halt, and no safety shutdown. A typical building is captured in a single visit with zero downtime.
What do we actually receive?
A geo-referenced thermal map with moisture areas marked and measured, exact coordinates of each defect, and a plain-English findings report with a prioritized action list. It's formatted to hand straight to your finance team or insurer.
Are you independent, or just selling a new roof?
Independent. We make our money finding the truth, not selling tear-offs — repair first, replacement only when the roof genuinely needs it. Our reports also stand as third-party validation for insurance claims, disputes, and property due diligence.
How is a drone scan better than a traditional inspection?
No fall risk or liability, no foot traffic that itself damages the membrane, and far faster coverage. Thermal imaging also sees subsurface moisture the naked eye can't — our scans follow the recognized ASTM C1153 infrared method.
What does a commercial inspection cost?
Commercial thermal inspections start at $500, and the fee is credited toward any repair we carry out. Large or multi-building sites and ongoing maintenance programs are quoted to scope.
Do you handle the repair too?
Yes. We project-manage the fix through vetted local crews, backed by a workmanship warranty — one point of contact from diagnosis through repair. We serve Calgary and the surrounding area.

About

The new generation of roof service.

Repair first, replace only when needed.

Tsunami Roofing is built around one idea: see the problem before you pay to fix it. The inspection is owner-operated end to end — your scan, your report, and your point of contact are the same person, every time. No call centre, no upsell theatre.

For repairs and full reroofs we act as your project manager and deploy a bench of vetted local subcontractors against an airtight, drone-verified scope — so you get the diagnostics of a tech company with the follow-through of a single accountable owner.
