The Brampton scheduling window
We aim to complete pre-winter winter prep on Brampton homes by the last Saturday in October. Book by Labour Day for that window — after that we're scheduling against weather.
Best month to schedule winter prep in Brampton
Late September through mid-November is the sweet spot: Brampton averages 107cm of snow starting in December, so roof access closes fast. Spring bookings (April–May) are second-best and often 10–15% cheaper.
Common questions
What if it rains or snows on the booking day?
