How we prioritise
Active leaks, gas smell, and animal-in-flue jump the queue over cosmetic roof inspection work. We text realistic ETAs, not "we'll get to it."
Response windows across Whitby
Standard bookings inside Whitby: 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
Do you offer same-day roof inspection in Whitby?
Usually — call before 9am and we'll confirm a same-day arrival window inside Whitby for most standard scopes.
Do you need a permit for roof inspection 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.
What warranty do you offer on roof inspection 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.
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.
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.
How long does roof inspection take in Whitby?
45–75 min is typical for a straightforward job. Bookings in dense downtown zones add 15–20 minutes for parking and staging.
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 roof inspection cost in Whitby?
Most Whitby jobs land between $223 and $357. Complex access or heritage masonry can reach $579. We quote fixed price after a free on-site scope.
