FAQs
How do I know when it’s time to replace my roof in Kingston?
Common signs include curling or missing shingles, persistent leaks, granules in the gutters, visible daylight in the attic, and roofs older than 20–25 years. Kingston’s freeze–thaw cycles and occasional high winds accelerate wear, so it’s wise to schedule an inspection every two to three years. Our licensed crew provides a free, no-obligation assessment to confirm whether repairs or full replacement is the most cost-effective option.
What roofing materials do you recommend for Kingston’s climate?
Architectural asphalt shingles remain the most popular because they resist wind up to 209 km/h, shed snow effectively, and offer a 30-year warranty. For homeowners seeking extra durability, we install metal roofing (standing seam or metal shingles) that can last 50+ years and reflects summer heat. Synthetic slate or composite shakes are also options when heritage aesthetics are important in Kingston’s historic districts. We discuss pros, cons, and budget with you during the consultation.
Are your roofers licensed and insured?
Absolutely. Our crew holds a valid Ontario Contractor’s Licence and every installer has Working at Heights certification. We carry $5 million in liability insurance and full WSIB coverage, protecting you from any workplace injuries or accidental damage. Documentation is available upon request, and we pull all required City of Kingston permits before work begins.
How long does a typical roof replacement take in Kingston?
Most single-family homes are completed in one to two days, weather permitting. Day 1 involves removal of old shingles, deck inspection, and any needed repairs. Day 2 covers underlayment, flashing, shingle installation, ventilation upgrades, and final cleanup. Larger or more complex roofs (multiple dormers, skylights, or metal installations) can take three to five days. We provide a detailed schedule so you know what to expect.
How much does roof replacement cost and what financing options are available?
Costs vary based on roof size, pitch, material choice, and decking repairs, but Kingston homeowners typically spend $6–10 per square foot for architectural shingles and $12–18 per square foot for metal. After an on-site measurement, we give you a written, fixed-price quote that includes labour, materials, permits, disposal, and HST. We partner with local lenders to offer low-interest financing and 0% short-term payment plans, letting you spread the investment over 12–120 months.
Do you handle permits, waste removal, and final cleanup?
Yes. We submit all necessary building permit applications to the City of Kingston, schedule inspections, and meet code requirements. Our crew sets up protective tarps, uses driveway-friendly disposal bins, and conducts magnetic sweeps to pick up stray nails. We recycle old shingles through approved facilities whenever possible, leaving your property spotless and compliant with environmental regulations.
