Common questions
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 need a permit for shingle replacement in Whitby?
Cleaning and inspection are permit-exempt in Whitby. Structural masonry, liner replacement, or a new appliance install typically need one — we pull it as part of the job when required.
Do you offer same-day shingle replacement in Whitby?
Usually — call before 9am and we'll confirm a same-day arrival window inside Whitby for most standard scopes.
Do you service condos and heritage homes in Whitby?
Yes. Condo boards in Whitby typically want a scope letter and insurance certificate 48 hours out; heritage properties need product substitutions we pre-source.
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 shingle replacement cost in Whitby?
Most Whitby jobs land between $13 and $22. Complex access or heritage masonry can reach $35. We quote fixed price after a free on-site scope.
What warranty do you offer on shingle replacement in Whitby?
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.
When's the best time of year for shingle replacement in Whitby?
Late September through mid-November with Whitby averaging 97cm of snow starting December. Spring (April–May) is the second window and often 10–15% cheaper.
