Common questions
Do you need a permit for roof cleaning in Kitchener?
Cleaning and inspection are permit-exempt in Kitchener. Structural masonry, liner replacement, or a new appliance install typically need one — we pull it as part of the job when required.
How long does roof cleaning take in Kitchener?
2–4 hrs is typical for a straightforward job. Bookings in dense downtown zones add 15–20 minutes for parking and staging.
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.
When's the best time of year for roof cleaning in Kitchener?
Late September through mid-November with Kitchener averaging 111cm of snow starting December. Spring (April–May) is the second window and often 10–15% cheaper.
What warranty do you offer on roof cleaning in Kitchener?
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.
