Common questions
Do you offer same-day shingle replacement in Kitchener?
Usually — call before 9am and we'll confirm a same-day arrival window inside Kitchener for most standard scopes.
How much does shingle replacement cost in Kitchener?
Most Kitchener jobs land between $13 and $20. Complex access or heritage masonry can reach $33. We quote fixed price after a free on-site scope.
Do you need a permit for shingle replacement in Kitchener?
Cleaning and inspection are permit-exempt in Kitchener. Structural masonry, liner replacement, or a new appliance install typically need one — we pull it as part of the job when required.
Is shingle replacement covered by home insurance in Kitchener?
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.

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.

1–3 days is typical for a straightforward job. Bookings in dense downtown zones add 15–20 minutes for parking and staging.
