Custom aluminum soft metals in Calgary: vented soffit, fascia capping, continuous 5" and 6" eavestroughs, and custom window drip flashings.
Custom soft metal installation including aluminum soffit, fascia capping, seamless eavestroughs, and custom window drip flashings in Calgary. Fabricated on site using heavy-gauge aluminum for maximum weather protection and clean architectural lines.
Soft metals form the critical perimeter transitions between your roof, walls, and drainage lines. Our custom metal fabrication unit bends high-grade aluminum on site to ensure airtight seals around gables, eaves, and window brickmoulds.
They're easy to overlook, but soft metals do a lot of heavy lifting on a Calgary home. Your soffit lets your attic breathe, your fascia protects the wood that holds your eavestroughs, and your gutters carry rain and snowmelt away from your foundation all year long. When one of these components fails, the damage usually shows up somewhere else first: a stained ceiling, rotting roof sheathing, ice dams along the eaves, or water pooling against the basement walls.
Aluminum is the go-to material for soft metals in Alberta for good reason. It naturally resists rust and corrosion, so it holds up to years of rain, snow, and road-salt spray without breaking down the way untreated steel or painted wood does. It's also lightweight, which means long runs of eavestrough and full-perimeter fascia capping don't put unnecessary strain on your roof edge or fascia boards.
Just as important, aluminum is easy to shape precisely. Because it bends cleanly without cracking, we can form custom profiles right at your home to wrap irregular fascia boards, fit tight corners, and match unusual rooflines. The result is a tight, tailored fit instead of off-the-shelf pieces forced into place.
Aluminum also handles temperature swings well. Calgary's exterior metals regularly go from deep cold to warm sun in the same day, and properly installed aluminum systems are designed to move with those changes without warping or pulling loose. And when the day comes to replace it, aluminum is fully recyclable.
Our eavestroughs are roll-formed from continuous aluminum coil right at your property, cut to the exact length of each roofline. Fewer seams means fewer places for leaks to start, less chance of joints separating over time, and a cleaner look from the street. Every run is sloped toward its downspouts so water drains properly instead of sitting in the trough and freezing.
Few cities put exterior metals through as much as Calgary does. A Chinook can push temperatures from well below freezing to above zero in a matter of hours, then drop them right back down overnight. That cycle melts snow on the roof, sends the water into the eavestroughs, and refreezes it before it can drain. Undersized gutters, poorly sloped runs, and blocked soffit vents all make the problem worse. That's why we size every eavestrough system to the roof it serves and pair it with properly vented soffit so the attic stays cold and dry.
Available in over 30 architect-selected color shades coated with UV-resistant polyurethane finishes that will not chip, peel, or rust over decades. Matching your soffit, fascia, and eavestroughs to your siding, trim, or roof gives your home a clean, finished look and boosts curb appeal.
Seamless aluminum eavestroughs typically range from $6 to $8 per linear foot. Where your project lands in that range depends on the height of your home, access around the property (fences, decks, landscaping, tight side yards), the number of corners and rooflines, and whether old gutters need to be removed first.
