"Property Werks handled our solar install end to end. The online estimate matched the final quote closely, the crew worked cleanly, and the paperwork with our utility was taken care of for us. Our bill dropped the first month it was running."

Put one of Canada's sunniest roofs to work

Calgary gets more sunshine than almost anywhere in Canada, which makes a rooftop array a genuinely good investment here. Use the calculator to see what your own roof can produce, then send us your details and we'll come back with a firm quote in a couple of days.

How it works

Straightforward pricing, a proven track record, and quality guaranteed

Cut your power bill with a properly designed rooftop array, priced up front.

Solar calculator

Your price isn't a secret.

Enter your address and we'll read your roof from satellite imagery, map how much sun each part of it gets through the year, and show you the production, savings, and install price for the array size you choose.

Roof & electrical assessment

Quick, convenient, and no-pressure.

After getting your estimate from the calculator, click through to request your quote. Our project manager reviews your roof condition, shading, and electrical service within the next few business days. You don't need to be present, and we'll contact you if we have any questions.

Review & approve

Take some time to think it over.

Once the assessment is done we'll email your quote. It includes panels, inverters, racking, permits, inspection, and the micro-generation application. We won't underbid to win your business and then come to you with surprise expenses.

Permits, install & connection

We manage the paperwork for you.

Once approved, we handle the permit and micro-generation paperwork, order equipment, and book your install. Our certified installers complete the array, and we stay on the file until your system is inspected and switched on.

Instant solar estimate

See what your roof could save you

Enter your address and we'll read your roof from satellite imagery, map the sun it gets through the year, and compare the cost of a system against what it saves you.

Production is modelled from satellite imagery of your roof. Savings assume ENMAX Easymax Seasonal Solar rates and a typical Calgary household. Your final quote follows an on-site assessment.

If we're unable to read your roof from imagery, select your preferred panel count and we'll assess it on site.

Quick answers

How much do solar panels cost in Calgary?
Most Calgary homes land between $15,000 and $25,000 installed, depending on how many panels your roof can carry. Use the calculator above to price your own roof rather than an average.
How long until solar pays for itself?
Typically 11 to 13 years at current Calgary power rates, after which the system keeps producing for the rest of its 25 year warranted life. Financed through the city's Clean Energy Improvement Program, the monthly payment and the monthly saving usually land within a few dollars of each other, so it costs you little along the way. The calculator works this out for your specific roof.
Does solar actually work in Calgary?
Yes. Calgary is one of the sunniest cities in Canada, and panels actually run more efficiently in cold weather. Production drops over the darkest winter weeks and more than makes up for it through the long summer days.
Do I have to pay for an estimate?
Nope! Our estimates are always free, no-pressure, and no obligation. You can request your free estimate online using the calculator above.
How long does an installation take?
Most residential installs are finished in one to two days on site, with permits and the utility connection adding a few weeks either side. We handle that paperwork for you.

Why choose us

Experienced crews with 20+ years of exterior experience

Calgary homeowners trust us to design and install arrays that produce what we said they would. We never compromise on quality.

No underbidding

Honest quotes, no invented extras.

Some solar companies quote a headline price, then add trenching, panel upgrades, or engineering fees once you've signed. That's not our style. If your electrical service or roof needs work before the array goes up, we'll show you the problem and get your approval on the cost first. Bring us a comparable written quote and we'll match it.

No cherry-picking

Every project is important.

You get the same level of service whether you're adding a few panels or filling your roof. Your project won't be bumped because "something better" came along. We treat you with respect no matter the size of your job.

Quality materials

Equipment built for Alberta winters.

We install Tier 1 monocrystalline panels on corrosion-resistant racking, paired with inverters rated for Calgary winters. Everything we quote carries a manufacturer warranty you can actually claim against.

Solid workmanship

Certified installers, code-compliant work.

Your array is installed by certified, insured solar contractors working to CSA and Alberta electrical code, with every roof penetration properly flashed and sealed so your roof stays watertight.

Quality guaranteed

Covered for the life of your system.

We manage your project, billing, and scheduling from first estimate to final inspection, so you have one point of contact throughout. Our workmanship is covered for as long as you own the array, so if an issue comes up afterwards you call us and we put it right.

What's the process?

Solar 101

We coordinate all aspects of your project from start to finish so your system is producing quickly.

Design & modelling

Size the array to your real usage.

We model your roof surface by surface, accounting for pitch, orientation, and year-round shading, then size the array against your actual power consumption rather than a generic average.

Roof & electrical check

Sort out the roof before the panels.

We confirm your roof has the remaining life and structure to carry an array for the next 25 years, and check your panel and service capacity for the inverter. Anything that needs attention is flagged before you commit.

Permits & micro-generation

The paperwork is on us.

We pull the electrical and building permits and file your micro-generation application with your wire service provider, so you can export surplus power to the grid and be credited for it.

Racking, panels & inverter

This is the part that lasts decades.

Racking is anchored to your rafters and flashed into the roof, panels are set and wired, and the inverter and disconnect are mounted and tied into your panel. Most residential arrays go up in a day or two.

Inspection & switch-on

Tidy site, system switched on.

Once inspection passes and your meter is swapped, we commission the system, walk you through the monitoring app, and clear the site completely.

Frequently asked questions

Your questions answered

General

How long do solar panels last?
Panels are warranted for 25 years and typically keep producing well beyond that, losing roughly half a percent of output per year. Inverters usually need replacing once over that period.
Which way does my roof need to face?
South-facing roof surfaces produce the most, but east and west facing surfaces are still well worth covering in Calgary. Our calculator maps how much sun each part of your roof gets through the year, so you can see which surfaces earn their keep.
Do panels need clearing in Calgary winters?
Panels shed snow readily on a pitched roof and need no routine cleaning here. You'll see production dip after a heavy snowfall, then recover within a few days on its own.
How do panels hold up to hail?
Better than most roofs do. Every Tier 1 panel we install is certified to the IEC standard that fires 25 mm hailstones at the glass at around 80 km/h, and the tempered front glass shrugs off most Calgary storms. Let your insurer know once the system is running, since coverage is usually added to your existing home policy.
Will my panels work in a power outage?
Not on their own. A grid-tied system has to shut down during an outage so it can't feed power into lines crews may be working on. If you want to keep the lights on through a blackout you need a battery with backup capability, which we can quote alongside the array.
What if I sell my home before 25 years?
The array stays with the house and transfers to the new owner, along with the lower power bill that comes with it. If you financed through the city's program you can either clear the balance at closing or pass it to the buyer.
Do you install solar in my area?
From the inner city to the suburbs, we serve homeowners across Calgary city limits.

Pricing

What is included in my quoted project cost?
Panels, racking, inverters, wiring, permits, inspection, and your micro-generation application are all included in your quoted price. Your quoted price is your final price, with no surprise charges mid-project.
What happens to power I do not use?
Alberta's micro-generation regulation credits you for every kilowatt-hour you send to the grid, at whatever rate your retailer plan is on. In Calgary, ENMAX's Easymax Seasonal Solar plan lets you switch to a much higher rate for the sunny months when you're exporting, then back to the standard rate over winter. You do have to switch it yourself, and the fixed delivery and administration charges on your bill stay the same either way.
Can I finance the system?
Yes. The City of Calgary's Clean Energy Improvement Program can finance up to 100% of your project to a maximum of $50,000, over as much as 20 years, repaid through your property tax bill. For most homes the monthly payment lands close to the monthly saving, so the system largely pays for itself as you go. It is a loan, not a rebate.
How do I get an estimate for my home?
Use the solar calculator above to get an instant estimate, then submit your details. Our project manager will assess your roof and send a firm quote for your approval, usually within 1-3 business days.
Will you match another quote?
Yes. Bring us a written quote from another licensed installer for comparable equipment and we'll match it. You shouldn't have to shop around to find out whether our number is fair, and we'd rather earn the job on the work than lose it over a few hundred dollars.

Equipment and design

Does my roof need replacing first?
An array should go on a roof with at least 20 years of life left in it, since removing and reinstalling panels for a re-roof is an avoidable cost. If yours is getting on, we also handle roof replacement and can sequence the two together.
Do I need a battery?
Not for the system to work. Alberta credits your exports through micro-generation, which covers most homeowners. Batteries are worth considering if backup power during outages matters to you, and we can quote a battery-ready install.
What happens to the financing if I move?
The financing follows the property, not you. When you sell you can either clear the remaining balance with no penalty, or disclose it and hand the balance to the buyer along with the panels. You can also pay it off early at any point without a fee.
Will panels damage my roof?
Every mount is anchored to a rafter and flashed into the roof surface the same way a vent or skylight is. Done properly it doesn't compromise your roof, and the panels shelter the shingles beneath them.
Can I start small and add panels later?
Usually, as long as your inverter has capacity left and your electrical service can carry the extra. It is cheaper to size it properly the first time though, because the crew, the permits and the micro-generation application are all one-time costs. If your roof and budget allow it, stretch now rather than later.
What warranties come with the system?
Panels carry a 25 year performance warranty and inverters typically 10 to 12 years, both from the manufacturer. Our own workmanship is covered for as long as you own the array — if a mount, flashing or connection we installed fails, we come back and fix it at no charge. If a panel or inverter fails, we handle the manufacturer claim for you rather than sending you to chase it.
