Euroshield Rubber Roofing in Edmonton
If you are replacing your roof and want something built for a longer horizon than conventional asphalt shingles, Euroshield is worth considering.
Made primarily from recycled rubber, Euroshield roofing combines severe-weather resistance with slate- and shake-inspired designs built for Alberta homes.
All In One Exterior supplies and installs Euroshield roofing systems throughout Edmonton and surrounding communities.
Why Homeowners Consider Euroshield
For most homeowners, the comparison starts with asphalt shingles.
Asphalt remains a practical roofing option. But homeowners who expect to stay in their home for the long term, have concerns about hail, or simply do not want to replace another conventional roof may want to look further.
Euroshield is designed as a premium roofing system with a different value proposition.
Built for Impact
All Euroshield roofing profiles carry a UL 2218 Class 4 impact rating, the highest classification within that testing standard.
For Alberta homeowners accustomed to hailstorms, that added impact resistance can be a major reason to consider the product.
Long-Term Warranty Protection
Euroshield backs its roofing products with long-term warranty coverage, including hail protection.
Standard products include 50-year coverage against hail up to 2 inches in diameter, while select HP products provide additional protection against larger hail.
Made From Recycled Material
Euroshield roofing is manufactured using approximately 95% recycled material, with recycled tire rubber making up the primary component.
That creates a productive second use for a material that would otherwise be difficult to divert from landfill.
Slate and Shake Appearance
Euroshield is designed to replicate the depth and texture of traditional slate and wood shake without the weight, fragility or maintenance requirements associated with those natural materials.
Is Euroshield Worth the Investment?
That depends on what you want from the roof.
If the goal is simply to install the lowest-cost roofing system today, asphalt shingles will usually make more sense.
Euroshield becomes more compelling when you start thinking about the full ownership period.
It may be worth considering if:
- You plan to remain in the home for many years
- Hail resistance is a major priority
- You have replaced asphalt roofing before and want another option
- You want a slate or shake appearance
- You value long-term warranty protection
- You are comfortable investing more upfront for a premium roofing system
We can compare Euroshield and asphalt options during the estimate so you can evaluate the difference based on your actual roof.
Built for Alberta Weather
A roofing product sold in Alberta needs to deal with more than rain.
Hail, high winds, freeze-thaw cycles, snow, ice, summer heat and UV exposure all put roofing materials under stress.
Euroshield was developed and is manufactured in Alberta, and its roofing panels have been independently tested for impact and wind performance.
The interlocking panel design also helps secure the leading edges of the roofing system against uplift in high winds.
Euroshield Roofing Styles
Performance does not mean every Euroshield roof has to look the same.
The product line includes both slate- and shake-inspired profiles, allowing homeowners to choose the character that best suits the house.

Euroshield Roofing FAQs
What is Euroshield made from?
Euroshield roofing is made from approximately 95% recycled material. Recycled tire rubber is its primary ingredient.
Is Euroshield hail proof?
All Euroshield profiles carry a UL 2218 Class 4 impact rating and include warranty coverage against hail up to 2 inches in diameter.
Certain HP products provide additional protection. Vermont Slate HP, for example, is warrantied against hail of any size during the first 20 years.
Does Euroshield require additional roof reinforcement?
Euroshield roofing is much lighter than natural slate and is comparable in weight to many conventional roofing systems. Additional structural reinforcement is generally not required solely because Euroshield is being installed, although the condition and design of the existing structure should always be assessed.
How does Euroshield handle high winds?
Euroshield uses an interlocking panel system designed to resist edge lifting and wind uplift. The product has also undergone third-party wind testing.
Is Euroshield maintenance free?
No exterior roofing product should literally be considered maintenance free. Euroshield is designed as a low-maintenance roofing material, but homeowners should still inspect their roof and drainage systems periodically and after significant weather events.
Can Euroshield be installed on every roof?
Roof pitch, design and existing construction all need to be considered. We assess the home first to determine whether Euroshield is appropriate for the roofing system.
