Line items to look for on a quote

Why Pickering pricing differs from neighbouring cities
Pickering's 70% natural gas mix drives which repointing scopes come up most. 20% of the housing stock predates 1960, which is why repointing jobs here average slightly more site prep than newer suburbs.

Common questions
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.
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.
What warranty do you offer on repointing in Pickering?
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.
When's the best time of year for repointing in Pickering?
Late September through mid-November with Pickering averaging 127cm of snow starting December. Spring (April–May) is the second window and often 10–15% cheaper.
Do you offer same-day repointing in Pickering?
Usually — call before 9am and we'll confirm a same-day arrival window inside Pickering for most standard scopes.
Do you service condos and heritage homes in Pickering?
Yes. Condo boards in Pickering typically want a scope letter and insurance certificate 48 hours out; heritage properties need product substitutions we pre-source.
How much does repointing cost in Pickering?
Most Pickering jobs land between $759 and $1,214. Complex access or heritage masonry can reach $1,973. We quote fixed price after a free on-site scope.
Is repointing covered by home insurance in Pickering?
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.
