Expert commercial roof maintenance, repair, and replacement for the Fraser Valley — from Abbotsford to Hope. The same manufacturer-recognized quality you'd expect in Metro Vancouver, delivered with the same commitment to your property.
The Fraser Valley shares Metro Vancouver's heavy rainfall, but adds a layer of complexity that coastal properties don't face: real winter. From Abbotsford east to Hope, commercial roofs endure freeze-thaw cycles, snow accumulation, and temperature swings that put stress on every component of a roof assembly.
Freeze-thaw is particularly punishing. Water enters tiny cracks and gaps in membranes, flashings, and sealants during the day, then expands as it freezes overnight. Over weeks and months — especially in Chilliwack, Hope, and the Agassiz area — this repeated cycling breaks sealant bonds, cracks aged membranes, and loosens flashing terminations. The damage is often invisible until a leak appears inside the building.
Snow load is another factor that Metro Vancouver properties rarely contend with. Flat commercial roofs in the eastern Fraser Valley can accumulate meaningful snow loads that stress structural components and roof membranes. Improper drainage after melt compounds the problem.
The Fraser Valley's rapid growth over the past two decades has created a dual challenge: new commercial development that needs commissioning-level roofing, and a growing stock of 1990s and 2000s-era buildings now hitting the age where roof systems need serious attention or replacement. Agricultural and industrial buildings with large footprints — common throughout the valley — often have minimal maintenance history, making thorough condition assessment essential.
And here's the reality many Fraser Valley property owners have experienced: some Metro Vancouver roofing contractors treat the Fraser Valley as a secondary market. Response times lag, service calls get deprioritized, and relationships are transactional. Raven Roofing takes a different approach.
A proactive maintenance program is the most effective way to protect your commercial roof — and your budget. This is especially true in the Fraser Valley, where seasonal conditions demand attention at specific times of year. Fall inspections before the freeze-thaw season begins and spring assessments after winter's toll are not optional here; they're essential.
Our Fraser Valley maintenance programs are calibrated to the region's seasons. We schedule fall inspections to address any issues before winter sets in, and spring inspections to catch freeze-thaw damage early. Between visits, our programs include drain clearing, debris removal, minor membrane and sealant repairs, and comprehensive reporting that gives you the documentation you need for budgeting and warranty compliance.
Freeze-thaw damage often manifests as leaks in locations far from the actual point of failure. Our leak investigation process traces moisture paths systematically to identify the true source — not just the visible symptom. We then execute targeted repairs that address the root cause and hold up through subsequent winter cycles.
If you're acquiring a commercial property in the Fraser Valley, managing a portfolio, or planning capital expenditures, our detailed roof condition assessments provide the data you need. We evaluate membrane integrity, flashing condition, drainage performance, and overall system health, then deliver a prioritized report with clear recommendations and cost projections.
Flashing replacement, membrane patching, drainage improvements, and sealant renewal can significantly extend the life of an existing roof system. For Fraser Valley buildings where freeze-thaw has taken a toll on specific components, targeted repairs are often the most cost-effective path forward.
The Fraser Valley's commercial and industrial growth means frequent tenant improvements — new HVAC equipment, ventilation penetrations, equipment curbs, and building alterations. Each one requires precise roofing work to maintain waterproofing integrity. We coordinate with general contractors and mechanical trades to ensure TI projects are completed without compromising your roof. Agricultural buildings often require specialized penetration work for ventilation and processing equipment, and our crews have the experience to handle these installations correctly.

When maintenance and repair are no longer sufficient, Raven Roofing provides full-scope commercial reroofing and new construction roofing throughout the Fraser Valley.
We specify and install the system that best fits your building, climate exposure, and budget:
Abbotsford's growing commercial and industrial districts rely on durable, well-maintained roof systems — from the airport industrial area to the downtown core. We service retail centres, office buildings, warehouses, and the agricultural processing facilities that are central to the region's economy.
In Chilliwack, our crews maintain roofs on industrial parks, retail centres, and institutional buildings including schools and municipal facilities. Mission's commercial buildings along the Lougheed corridor and its institutional properties benefit from our scheduled maintenance programs and responsive repair service.
We extend our service to Hope, Kent and Agassiz, and Harrison Hot Springs — communities that are often underserved by roofing contractors based in Metro Vancouver. If you manage commercial property east of Abbotsford, you shouldn't have to accept slower response times or fewer contractor options. We provide the same quality and commitment here as anywhere else in our service area.
Our Fraser Valley clients include:
We don't treat the Fraser Valley as an afterthought. Our crews deliver the same standards, the same systems, and the same responsiveness here as they do across Metro Vancouver — because we've committed to this market, not just added it to a coverage map.
That commitment is backed by credentials earned over decades of commercial roofing work. The Carlisle Hall of Fame recognizes sustained excellence in commercial roof installation — a distinction held by very few contractors in British Columbia. We have been named a GAF Chairman's Circle contractor multiple times, a designation reserved for the top-performing GAF-certified firms. We hold the Elevate Master Contractor designation (multiple times) and have been awarded the Elevate Inner Circle of Quality, recognizing the highest standard of installation workmanship.
Over 50 million square feet of commercial roofing installed across our history gives our crews an experience base that's difficult to replicate. We are members of the CRCA, RCABC, VRCA, and RCAC — the industry associations that hold commercial roofing contractors to professional standards.
What sets our Fraser Valley service apart is understanding. We know that freeze-thaw cycles here demand different inspection timing and different repair approaches than coastal properties. We know that agricultural and industrial buildings in this region have specific requirements. And we know that property owners and managers in the Fraser Valley deserve a contractor who shows up consistently, not just when it's convenient.
We serve commercial properties throughout the Fraser Valley:
Abbotsford · Chilliwack · Mission · Hope · Kent (Agassiz) · Harrison Hot Springs
Our service area extends from the eastern edge of Metro Vancouver through to Hope, covering the full commercial and industrial corridor of the Fraser Valley.
Repeated freezing and thawing causes water to expand and contract in small cracks, gaps, and seams across the roof assembly. Over time, this breaks sealant bonds, cracks aged membranes, and loosens flashing terminations. The damage accumulates gradually, often remaining invisible until a leak develops. Regular fall and spring inspections are the best defense.
Yes. We serve Chilliwack, Mission, Hope, Kent and Agassiz, and Harrison Hot Springs. These communities are part of our regular service area — not an occasional add-on. We provide the same response times and service standards across the entire Fraser Valley.
Standing seam metal is the most common choice for agricultural commercial buildings due to its durability, snow-shedding capability, and long service life. SBS/modified bitumen is well-suited for flat-roof sections. The right system depends on your building's use, structural capacity, and budget — we'll recommend the best fit after an assessment.
At minimum, twice per year — in fall before freeze-thaw conditions begin, and in spring to assess winter damage. Buildings in higher-snow areas like Chilliwack and Hope may benefit from additional mid-winter checks to monitor snow accumulation and drainage.
Don't let distance from Metro Vancouver mean your commercial roof gets second-rate attention. Raven Roofing serves the Fraser Valley with the same expertise, the same crews, and the same manufacturer-backed quality we deliver everywhere.
