101 Ashley Close, Canmore | Iron Stone Slate Metal Roof Project
This home in Canmore, Alberta was upgraded with an Iron Stone Slate metal roof in a black finish, perfectly suited for the mountain setting. The slate-style profile adds a refined, architectural look while blending naturally with the surrounding trees and alpine landscape.
The existing roof was fully replaced with a metal roofing system designed to handle mountain conditions, including heavy snow accumulation, ice buildup, and strong winds common in the Bow Valley. Extra attention was given to detailing around dormers, skylights, and transitions to ensure proper water shedding and long-term performance.
For homeowners in Canmore and the surrounding mountain communities, this project highlights why metal roofing is an ideal long-term solution. Iron Stone Slate offers durability, minimal maintenance, and reliable protection — a smart investment for homes exposed to Alberta’s toughest weather conditions.
