FAQs
How can I tell if my Thorn Hill home needs a complete roof replacement rather than just repairs?
Warning signs include shingles that are curling, cracked or missing, widespread granule loss, sagging roof planes, persistent leaks or water stains inside, and roofs that are 20–25 years old. Because Thorn Hill experiences freeze-thaw cycles and strong winds off the Niagara Escarpment, minor damage can escalate quickly. Our free inspection looks at the roof deck, attic ventilation, flashing, and shingle condition to determine whether targeted repairs or a full replacement is the safest, most cost-effective choice.
Which roofing materials do you recommend for Thorn Hill’s climate, and how long do they last?
Architectural asphalt shingles remain the most popular because they balance price, curb appeal, and a 30-year average lifespan when installed correctly. For homeowners seeking extra durability, we also install premium designer shingles (up to 50 years), metal panels (40–70 years), and synthetic cedar or slate alternatives (50+ years) that resist hail and high winds. All products we suggest are CSA-approved for Canadian weather, carry high wind ratings, and include algae-resistant granules to prevent streaking in Thorn Hill’s humid summers.
What does a roof replacement cost in Thorn Hill, and what factors affect the price?
Most asphalt shingle replacements in Thorn Hill range from $6 to $9 per square foot, but the final figure depends on roof size and pitch, material choice, number of existing layers to remove, underlayment upgrades (ice-and-water shield is code along the eaves), ventilation improvements, and any decking or structural repairs uncovered during tear-off. We provide a detailed written estimate after inspection, outlining labour, materials, permits, disposal, and HST—so there are no surprises.
How long will the roof replacement take, and what should I expect during the project?
An average single-family home roof in Thorn Hill takes 1–2 days for tear-off and installation, weather permitting. Complex roofs or specialty materials can extend the timeline to 3–4 days. We obtain all municipal permits, deliver materials the day before, protect landscaping with tarps, and perform a daily magnetic nail sweep. You can stay in the house, but there will be noise and vibration. Our crew provides progress updates and a final walk-through to ensure you are 100 percent satisfied.
Are you licensed and insured in Thorn Hill, and what warranties do you provide?
Yes. Roofing Done Right holds a current City of Markham contractor licence, $5 million in liability insurance, and full WSIB coverage for every crew member. We are certified installers for CertainTeed and BP products, enabling us to register 50-year non-prorated manufacturer warranties on materials. Our own workmanship warranty covers labour and installation defects for 10 years, transferable to the next homeowner.
How should I prepare my property before the crew arrives, and what happens to the debris?
Please move vehicles out of the driveway, secure fragile items on interior walls or ceilings, and keep children and pets indoors or off-site during work hours. We set up disposal bins, protect gardens and exterior furniture with plywood and tarps, and haul away all shingles, nails, and packaging for responsible recycling. Before final payment, a supervisor performs a full perimeter cleanup and magnetic sweep, leaving your yard as tidy as we found it—except with a brand-new roof.
