Common questions

What warranty do you offer on roof cleaning in Niagara-on-the-Lake?

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.

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 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.

Is roof cleaning covered by home insurance in Niagara-on-the-Lake?

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 roof cleaning cost in Niagara-on-the-Lake?

Most Niagara-on-the-Lake jobs land between $302 and $483. Complex access or heritage masonry can reach $785. We quote fixed price after a free on-site scope.

Do you service condos and heritage homes in Niagara-on-the-Lake?

Yes. Condo boards in Niagara-on-the-Lake 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 Niagara-on-the-Lake?

Cleaning and inspection are permit-exempt in Niagara-on-the-Lake. Structural masonry, liner replacement, or a new appliance install typically need one — we pull it as part of the job when required.

When's the best time of year for roof cleaning in Niagara-on-the-Lake?

Late September through mid-November with Niagara-on-the-Lake averaging 135cm of snow starting December. Spring (April–May) is the second window and often 10–15% cheaper.
