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.

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.
Do you offer same-day roof repair in Peterborough?
Usually — call before 9am and we'll confirm a same-day arrival window inside Peterborough for most standard scopes.
Do you service condos and heritage homes in Peterborough?
Yes. Condo boards in Peterborough typically want a scope letter and insurance certificate 48 hours out; heritage properties need product substitutions we pre-source.

2–5 hrs is typical for a straightforward job. Bookings in dense downtown zones add 15–20 minutes for parking and staging.
