What a defensible quote looks like
Written scope with photos, itemised labour + materials, 30-day validity, WSIB and liability certificate attached, and named workmanship warranty (5 years is the current bar for repair).
Vetting a New Tecumseth contractor
Three checks that filter 90% of problems: (1) live WSIB clearance certificate, (2) named directors matching corporate filings, (3) two New Tecumseth references from the last 12 months you can call — not read.
Red flags on quotes
Verbal-only pricing, deposits above 20%, cash-only discounts, and unwillingness to itemise materials by brand are the top four. Any one is a pass.
Common questions
Do you offer same-day repair in New Tecumseth?
Usually — call before 9am and we'll confirm a same-day arrival window inside New Tecumseth for most standard scopes.
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.
What warranty do you offer on repair in New Tecumseth?
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 service condos and heritage homes in New Tecumseth?
Yes. Condo boards in New Tecumseth typically want a scope letter and insurance certificate 48 hours out; heritage properties need product substitutions we pre-source.
Is repair covered by home insurance in New Tecumseth?
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 long does repair take in New Tecumseth?
2–6 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 repair in New Tecumseth?
Late September through mid-November with New Tecumseth averaging 158cm of snow starting December. Spring (April–May) is the second window and often 10–15% cheaper.
