Double-lock standing seam roof on a new home in the mountains

Architectural Metal Roofing and Cladding

Double-lock standing seam, copper and zinc. Roofs, facades and custom sheet-metal details in Calgary, the foothills and the mountains.

[ About ]

Hi, we're Construct Vision.

Constantin has been working with metal for 18 years. He started on old churches and monasteries, where the roofs were copper and steel shaped by hand and every seam was on show. He also has a background in architecture, so he looks at a roof the way a designer would: how it meets the walls, where the water goes, and how it will look in twenty years.

He moved to Calgary in 2019 and started Construct Vision in February 2024. Over his career he has finished more than 630 roofs and facades.

Today we're a small team. Everyone on it has worked with steel, zinc and copper, and everyone answers for the quality of their own part of the job.

We take on the geometry most crews turn down: domes, curved planes, soldered joints, where every piece is made for one house only.

05

Metal siding

Diamond scale, vertical seam and flat panels in steel, zinc and copper. Metal looks its best next to wood, stone and glass, so we plan every panel around them and the whole wall reads as one piece.

[ Comparison ]

Standing seam

How it works
01

Snap-lock

Panels clip together along the seam. Quicker to install, suited to steeper roofs and simpler shapes.

Seam
Sheds water
Minimum pitch
4:12 and steeper
Curves and domes
No
Labour
Faster, more crews can do it
02

Double-lock

The seam is folded twice and closed by machine on site. Holds on low slopes, in high wind and under heavy snow.

Seam
Holds against standing water
Minimum pitch
Below 4:12, down to flat roofs
Curves and domes
Yes, from a 0.6 m radius
Labour
Slower, needs a seaming machine and a trained crew

Calgary

This is home. We work across Calgary and nearby towns like Cochrane, Okotoks, High River and Bearspaw. Hail is part of life here, and that's why more people are moving from asphalt to metal.

Bow Valley

We also work in Canmore and the mountains. There's more snow, and the building season is shorter, so we plan these jobs early and book them around the weather.
