Common questions
When's the best time of year for roof cleaning in Erin?
Late September through mid-November with Erin averaging 127cm of snow starting December. Spring (April–May) is the second window and often 10–15% cheaper.
Do you offer same-day roof cleaning in Erin?
Usually — call before 9am and we'll confirm a same-day arrival window inside Erin for most standard scopes.
How long does roof cleaning take in Erin?
2–4 hrs 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.
Do you service condos and heritage homes in Erin?
Yes. Condo boards in Erin typically want a scope letter and insurance certificate 48 hours out; heritage properties need product substitutions we pre-source.
Do you need a permit for roof cleaning in Erin?
Cleaning and inspection are permit-exempt in Erin. Structural masonry, liner replacement, or a new appliance install typically need one — we pull it as part of the job when required.
Is roof cleaning covered by home insurance in Erin?
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.
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.
