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.
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 shingle replacement).
Vetting a Scugog contractor
Three checks that filter 90% of problems: (1) live WSIB clearance certificate, (2) named directors matching corporate filings, (3) two Scugog references from the last 12 months you can call — not read.
Common questions
When's the best time of year for shingle replacement in Scugog?
Late September through mid-November with Scugog averaging 150cm of snow starting December. Spring (April–May) is the second window and often 10–15% cheaper.
How much does shingle replacement cost in Scugog?
Most Scugog jobs land between $14 and $22. Complex access or heritage masonry can reach $36. We quote fixed price after a free on-site scope.
Do you offer same-day shingle replacement in Scugog?
Usually — call before 9am and we'll confirm a same-day arrival window inside Scugog 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.
Do you service condos and heritage homes in Scugog?
Yes. Condo boards in Scugog 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 shingle replacement in Scugog?
Cleaning and inspection are permit-exempt in Scugog. Structural masonry, liner replacement, or a new appliance install typically need one — we pull it as part of the job when required.
What warranty do you offer on shingle replacement in Scugog?
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.
Is shingle replacement covered by home insurance in Scugog?
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.
