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.
What warranty do you offer on roof vent install in Pickering?
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 Pickering?
Yes. Condo boards in Pickering 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 roof vent install in Pickering?
Cleaning and inspection are permit-exempt in Pickering. Structural masonry, liner replacement, or a new appliance install typically need one — we pull it as part of the job when required.
How much does roof vent install cost in Pickering?
Most Pickering jobs land between $274 and $438. Complex access or heritage masonry can reach $712. We quote fixed price after a free on-site scope.
Is roof vent install covered by home insurance in Pickering?
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.
When's the best time of year for roof vent install in Pickering?
