When to loop us in
The strongest claim files include a written pro assessment before the first adjuster call. We turn those around in 48 hours and share directly with the carrier.
Photos adjusters actually want
Adjusters ask for: wide shot of the affected area with a reference object, close-up of the damage, opposite-side shot showing intact structure for comparison, and one photo of any prior shingle replacement report or invoice.
Common questions
When's the best time of year for shingle replacement in Brampton?
Late September through mid-November with Brampton averaging 107cm of snow starting December. Spring (April–May) is the second window and often 10–15% cheaper.
Is shingle replacement covered by home insurance in Brampton?
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 Brampton?
Most Brampton jobs land between $11 and $18. Complex access or heritage masonry can reach $30. We quote fixed price after a free on-site scope.
What warranty do you offer on shingle replacement in Brampton?
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.
Do you service condos and heritage homes in Brampton?
Yes. Condo boards in Brampton typically want a scope letter and insurance certificate 48 hours out; heritage properties need product substitutions we pre-source.
How long does shingle replacement take in Brampton?
1–3 days is typical for a straightforward job. Bookings in dense downtown zones add 15–20 minutes for parking and staging.
Do you need a permit for shingle replacement in Brampton?
Cleaning and inspection are permit-exempt in Brampton. Structural masonry, liner replacement, or a new appliance install typically need one — we pull it as part of the job when required.
