Vetting a Vaughan contractor
Three checks that filter 90% of problems: (1) live WSIB clearance certificate, (2) named directors matching corporate filings, (3) two Vaughan references from the last 12 months you can call — not read.
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).
Common questions
Do you service condos and heritage homes in Vaughan?
Yes. Condo boards in Vaughan typically want a scope letter and insurance certificate 48 hours out; heritage properties need product substitutions we pre-source.
Do you offer same-day shingle replacement in Vaughan?
Usually — call before 9am and we'll confirm a same-day arrival window inside Vaughan for most standard scopes.
How long does shingle replacement take in Vaughan?
1–3 days 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.
Is shingle replacement covered by home insurance in Vaughan?
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.
What warranty do you offer on shingle replacement in Vaughan?
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 need a permit for shingle replacement in Vaughan?
Cleaning and inspection are permit-exempt in Vaughan. Structural masonry, liner replacement, or a new appliance install typically need one — we pull it as part of the job when required.
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.
