Best month to schedule shingle replacement in Markham
Late September through mid-November is the sweet spot: Markham averages 148cm of snow starting in December, so roof access closes fast. Spring bookings (April–May) are second-best and often 10–15% cheaper.
What breaks in each season
Winter: ice loading on the cap and flashing. Spring: freeze-thaw cracking in the crown from 67 annual cycles. Summer: UV degradation on any exposed sealant. Fall: raccoon and squirrel nesting before the cold snap.
The Markham scheduling window
We aim to complete pre-winter shingle replacement on Markham homes by the last Saturday in October. Book by Labour Day for that window — after that we're scheduling against weather.
Common questions
Do you need a permit for shingle replacement in Markham?
Cleaning and inspection are permit-exempt in Markham. Structural masonry, liner replacement, or a new appliance install typically need one — we pull it as part of the job when required.
Do you offer same-day shingle replacement in Markham?
Usually — call before 9am and we'll confirm a same-day arrival window inside Markham for most standard scopes.
Are you WETT and WSIB certified?
Yes — WETT SITE-Comprehensive #C-46082, CSIA #12408, and active WSIB #7248194. Certificates emailed on request before the job.
Is shingle replacement covered by home insurance in Markham?
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.
How much does shingle replacement cost in Markham?
Most Markham jobs land between $12 and $19. Complex access or heritage masonry can reach $31. We quote fixed price after a free on-site scope.
Do you service condos and heritage homes in Markham?
Yes. Condo boards in Markham typically want a scope letter and insurance certificate 48 hours out; heritage properties need product substitutions we pre-source.
When's the best time of year for shingle replacement in Markham?
Late September through mid-November with Markham averaging 148cm of snow starting December. Spring (April–May) is the second window and often 10–15% cheaper.
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.
