What sets us apart is our commitment to quality and transparency. Unlike many contractors who subcontract parts of their work, every roof we install is handled in-house by our own trained crews. This approach ensures consistent craftsmanship and allows us to maintain strict quality control from start to finish. Our hands-on experience in Burlington means we understand local building codes and can recommend the best ventilation and insulation options tailored to homes in neighborhoods like Roseland or Shoreacres, helping you prevent ice dams and reduce energy costs.

Our clients often tell us how much they appreciate our responsive service, especially when unexpected issues arise. For example, when a spring storm caused damage in the Tyandaga area, we were able to provide emergency roof repairs quickly, preventing further water infiltration and costly damage. Another homeowner in Alton Village mentioned how our expert installation of Owens Corning Duration shingles not only enhanced their home’s curb appeal but also improved their attic’s temperature regulation, reducing their heating bills during cold winters.

How We Protect Burlington Roofs from Ontario's Extreme Weather

From lake-effect snow to summer heat waves, Burlington roofs face unique challenges. Here's how we engineer protection.

3D Attic Ventilation System with Airflow

Balanced attic ventilation prevents ice dams, extends roof life, and reduces energy costs

Ice Dam Prevention

The Challenge:

Burlington faces significant ice dam risks due to 108cm annual snowfall and frequent freeze-thaw cycles near Lake Ontario. Lake-effect snow creates deeper accumulations, particularly in neighborhoods closest to the waterfront.

Our Solution:

We implement complete ice dam defense systems including premium ice and water shield extending 6 feet beyond heated walls, enhanced attic insulation, and specialized ventilation designed for Burlington's lakefront climate patterns.

High Wind Protection

The Challenge:

Burlington properties experience strong lake-effect winds, particularly during winter storms. Homes along the Lakeshore Road corridor and elevated areas face sustained winds up to 90km/h with stronger gusts during severe weather events.

Our Solution:

Installation of high-wind rated shingles with enhanced nailing patterns, reinforced starter strips, and specialized ridge cap systems. We use wind-resistant underlayment and additional fastening in high-exposure areas near the lake.

Extreme Temperature Swings

The Challenge:

Burlington experiences extreme temperature fluctuations from -20°C winters to 30°C+ summers. Lake Ontario's influence creates unique microclimate effects, particularly impacting roofing materials through rapid temperature changes.

Our Solution:

We utilize temperature-resistant synthetic underlayment and architectural shingles designed for extreme temperature variations. Advanced ventilation systems help regulate attic temperature year-round, extending roof lifespan.

Moisture & Humidity

The Challenge:

High humidity levels from Lake Ontario combined with seasonal precipitation create significant moisture challenges. Burlington's average 750mm annual rainfall plus lake-effect precipitation increases moisture exposure risks.

Our Solution:

Implementation of advanced moisture barrier systems, including synthetic underlayment and enhanced flashing details. We install specialized ventilation systems designed for high-humidity environments near Lake Ontario.

Ironclad Warranties

Comprehensive Protection

Every roof installation includes dual warranty coverage: our lifetime workmanship guarantee plus manufacturer product warranties registered in your name.

Burlington Lifetime Craftsmanship Guarantee

Our exclusive lifetime workmanship warranty protects Burlington homeowners against installation-related issues for as long as you own your home.

Access enhanced manufacturer warranties through our certified contractor status. These warranties provide Burlington homeowners with up to 50 years of coverage on premium roofing materials, including protection against manufacturing defects, color fading, and algae growth - crucial for homes near Lake Ontario's moisture-rich environment.

Burlington Weather-Tight Guarantee

Our exclusive leak-free guarantee ensures your Burlington home stays protected against water infiltration. We account for unique local challenges like ice damming along the Niagara Escarpment and strong lakefront winds. This guarantee includes rapid response service for any water-related concerns throughout the warranty period.
