Do you service condos and heritage homes in New Tecumseth?
Yes. Condo boards in New Tecumseth typically want a scope letter and insurance certificate 48 hours out; heritage properties need product substitutions we pre-source.
What if it rains or snows on the booking day?
Roof-side work reschedules to the next dry window at no charge. Interior scopes (firebox, damper, appliance) proceed regardless.

Sudden damage (storm, animal, appliance failure) is usually covered minus deductible. Gradual wear generally isn't. A written pro assessment before the claim call materially improves outcomes.
