Common questions
How long does winter prep take in Newmarket?
2–3 hrs is typical for a straightforward job. Bookings in dense downtown zones add 15–20 minutes for parking and staging.
When's the best time of year for winter prep in Newmarket?
Late September through mid-November with Newmarket averaging 154cm of snow starting December. Spring (April–May) is the second window and often 10–15% cheaper.
Is winter prep covered by home insurance in Newmarket?
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.
How much does winter prep cost in Newmarket?
Most Newmarket jobs land between $251 and $402. Complex access or heritage masonry can reach $654. We quote fixed price after a free on-site scope.
What warranty do you offer on winter prep in Newmarket?
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.
Do you service condos and heritage homes in Newmarket?
Yes. Condo boards in Newmarket typically want a scope letter and insurance certificate 48 hours out; heritage properties need product substitutions we pre-source.
