JFK SURFACES IN INNISFAIL
Roofing done from our home base.
JFK Surfaces has been based in Innisfail since 2018. Roofing is where the business started — Fabien’s trade before he built out a full renovation and construction company. We know Innisfail because we live here.
Local matters for roofing. It means faster response when a leak shows up on a Sunday. It means we know which streets have the 20-year shingles from the 2005 build boom that are hitting end of life. It means we drive past the job on our way home and notice if something looks off. And it means the crew you meet at the quote is the same crew that shows up on install day.
WHAT WE DO
Every kind of roofing work Innisfail homes 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 repair vs. re-roof honestly.
Emergency leak response
Local means fast. Active leak in Innisfail usually gets same-day or next-day tarping and temporary repair, then the real fix scheduled as weather allows.
Hail damage insurance work
We work with your insurance adjuster, document the damage with photos, 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 is undersized.
INNISFAIL SPECIFICS
What is different about roofing in Innisfail.
Hail country, right in the middle of it. Innisfail sits in one of the worst hail zones in Canada. We have re-roofed dozens of Innisfail homes after storm events, and we know which shingle grades actually hold up. Impact-rated shingles are worth the small premium in this town.
A wave of 20-year shingles ending life. A lot of Innisfail housing stock was built or re-roofed in the mid-2000s with 20 to 25 year shingles. Those roofs are aging out right now — if yours is from that era and the shingles are curling, cracking, or losing granules, it is time.
Prairie wind, real snow load. We install with extra fasteners on edges and ridges, and use shingles rated for the wind speeds we actually see — not a generic average. Ice-and-water shield in valleys and at eaves goes on every job.
Local response, local accountability. If something needs a follow-up in year three, we are ten minutes away. We are not a Calgary company that drove up for one job and disappeared.
