Standard bookings inside Port Hope: 3–5 business days. Same-day: usually before 2pm if we get the call by 9am. Emergency (water in flue, active leak): 90 minutes on weekdays, 3 hours weekends.
Weekend and holiday coverage
Saturday standard. Sunday and stat holidays are emergency-only with a documented callout fee that's waived if we book the follow-up job.
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.
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.
Is emergency tarp covered by home insurance in Port Hope?
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.
Do you offer same-day emergency tarp in Port Hope?
Usually — call before 9am and we'll confirm a same-day arrival window inside Port Hope for most standard scopes.
What warranty do you offer on emergency tarp in Port Hope?
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 Port Hope?
Yes. Condo boards in Port Hope 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 emergency tarp in Port Hope?
Cleaning and inspection are permit-exempt in Port Hope. Structural masonry, liner replacement, or a new appliance install typically need one — we pull it as part of the job when required.
