What a defensible quote looks like
Written scope with photos, itemised labour + materials, 30-day validity, WSIB and liability certificate attached, and named workmanship warranty (5 years is the current bar for shingle replacement).
Vetting a Georgina contractor
Three checks that filter 90% of problems: (1) live WSIB clearance certificate, (2) named directors matching corporate filings, (3) two Georgina references from the last 12 months you can call — not read.
Red flags on quotes
Verbal-only pricing, deposits above 20%, cash-only discounts, and unwillingness to itemise materials by brand are the top four. Any one is a pass.
Common questions
Do you service condos and heritage homes in Georgina?
Yes. Condo boards in Georgina typically want a scope letter and insurance certificate 48 hours out; heritage properties need product substitutions we pre-source.
What warranty do you offer on shingle replacement in Georgina?
Five-year written workmanship warranty on materials and labour, transferable to a new homeowner within that window. Manufacturer warranties on any installed products pass through separately.
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.
How long does shingle replacement take in Georgina?
1–3 days is typical for a straightforward job. Bookings in dense downtown zones add 15–20 minutes for parking and staging.
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.
How much does shingle replacement cost in Georgina?
Most Georgina jobs land between $13 and $20. Complex access or heritage masonry can reach $33. We quote fixed price after a free on-site scope.
When's the best time of year for shingle replacement in Georgina?
Late September through mid-November with Georgina averaging 162cm of snow starting December. Spring (April–May) is the second window and often 10–15% cheaper.
Do you need a permit for shingle replacement in Georgina?
Cleaning and inspection are permit-exempt in Georgina. Structural masonry, liner replacement, or a new appliance install typically need one — we pull it as part of the job when required.
