FAQs
How do I know if my roof in Elora needs a full replacement or just repairs?
Warning signs include widespread shingle curling or loss of granules, water stains on interior ceilings, recurring ice dams, and multiple leaks in different areas. Because Elora roofs endure freeze–thaw cycles and heavy spring rain, localized repairs often become short-lived fixes. Our technicians perform a free on-site inspection, photograph problem spots, examine attic ventilation and insulation, and then explain whether the roof system has reached the end of its service life or can be reliably repaired.
What roofing materials do you recommend for Elora’s climate, and why?
Architectural asphalt shingles are the most popular because they combine affordability with wind ratings up to 210 km/h—ideal for occasional Wellington County windstorms. We also install premium metal panels (standing-seam steel or aluminum) that shed heavy snow, reflect summer heat, and last 40–60 years. Synthetic slate and cedar shakes are available for heritage properties, but we ensure they meet Ontario Building Code fire-spread requirements. During your consultation we match material performance, appearance, and budget to Elora’s specific weather patterns.
How long does a typical roof replacement take from start to finish in Elora?
Most detached homes require 1–3 working days, depending on roof size, pitch, number of valleys, and material type. The timeline includes: Day 1—protect landscaping, remove existing shingles, and inspect decking; Day 2—install underlayment, flashings, and 50–100 % of new shingles; Day 3—complete shingling, ridge vents, and full site clean-up. Metal and complex designs may add an extra day. We provide a detailed schedule before work begins and communicate any weather delays immediately.
What steps do you take to ensure a meticulous installation and clean job site?
Our crews follow a 30-point installation checklist: ice-and-water membrane 3 ft past the heated wall line, synthetic underlayment overlapped 4 in., new drip edge, closed-cut valleys with metal liners, and six-nail patterns on every shingle. All flashings are replaced—not reused—and fastened with corrosion-resistant screws. Magnetic sweepers collect nails daily, tarps protect gardens, and a final walk-through with the homeowner verifies workmanship and cleanliness before we leave.
How much will a roof replacement cost in Elora, and what factors affect the price?
For an average 2,000 sq. ft. roof, architectural shingles range from $8,000–$12,000, while steel standing-seam starts around $20,000. Key cost drivers include roof area, pitch (steeper roofs require additional safety rigging), number of layers to remove, decking repairs, choice of underlayment, and ventilation upgrades. We provide a written, itemized quote so you can see exactly where each dollar goes and compare material options side by side.
Do you offer any warranties or post-installation support for new roofs in Elora?
Yes. You receive a dual warranty: a 10-year workmanship warranty from our company covering labour, flashing, and installation-related leaks, and the manufacturer’s limited lifetime material warranty (non-prorated for the first 15 years on most shingle lines). We register all warranties for you and perform a complimentary inspection after the first winter to confirm the roof is performing as expected. Our local Elora office is open year-round, so help is only a phone call away.
