Roof leaking right now?

Call 1-800-675-1055. We take emergency roof repair calls in Toronto and across the GTA, and a leak is the one job where talking to somebody beats filling in a form.

While you wait:

  • Contain the water. A bucket under the drip, and if the ceiling is bulging, one small hole at the low point of the bulge with a bucket under it. A controlled drip is a lot cheaper than a ceiling coming down in one piece.
  • Photograph it. The stain, the drip, the bucket, the room. Your insurer will want to see the damage before it was cleaned up, and so will we.
  • Stay off the roof. A wet roof is slippery and an icy one is worse, and winter is exactly when people decide to go up and have a look. Nothing you can do up there in a storm is worth the fall.

What we check, and it is not always the roof. A leaking roof gets blamed for a lot of water that comes from somewhere else, so a roof leak repair starts with finding the real entry point:

  • Flashing where the roof meets a chimney, a wall or a skylight. This is the single most common source.
  • Vents and pipe boots, whose rubber collars crack and split long before the shingles wear out.
  • Ice dams at the eaves, which push meltwater backwards up under the shingles. If there is a ridge of ice along your gutter line, start with ice dams.
  • Lifted, cracked or missing shingles, usually after wind.
  • Attic condensation. Warm damp air from the house hitting a cold deck drips like a leak and stains like a leak, and no amount of roof work will stop it.

Not every water leak in a ceiling is a roof leak. We would rather tell you it is a plumbing stack on the first visit than sell you a roof repair in Toronto that does not fix your ceiling.

Flashing, skylight and chimney leaks

When a roof leaks in one spot and the rest of the roof is fine, the answer is almost always flashing: the metal that seals the joint wherever the roof plane is interrupted.

Chimneys. The step flashing up the sides and the counter-flashing let into the mortar joints both fail, and so does the mortar itself. Sealant smeared over an old joint buys a season. To fix chimney flashing properly the metal is replaced and re-let into the brick, which is a half-day job rather than a caulking job.

Skylights. A skylight leak is usually the flashing kit around the frame rather than the glass unit, and on an older unit it can be the seal itself. Skylight repair in Toronto is worth doing at the same time as any nearby roof work, because the flashing and the surrounding shingles come apart together anyway.

Walls and dormers. Anywhere a sloped roof runs into a vertical wall there is step flashing behind the siding. When somebody re-roofs without replacing it, the leak turns up a year later, long after anyone would think to blame the new roof, and nothing to do with the shingles.

When we repair flashing on a roof we photograph what was behind it, because that is the part you will never see again once it is closed up.

Questions homeowners actually ask

How much does a re-roof cost?

Most re-roofs in our service area land between $6,000 and $7,000. Your written, itemized quote is free and holds its price.

How long does a roof replacement take?

Most homes: one to two days including tear-off and cleanup. We magnet-sweep the lawn for nails before we leave.

Do you tear off the old shingles or roof over them?

We tear off. Overlays hide deck problems and shorten the new roof's life — we'd rather show you what's under there.

What happens if it rains mid-job?

We stage the tear-off so the deck is never left exposed overnight, and tarp anything open if weather turns.

What warranty do I get?

Two years on our workmanship plus the manufacturer's shingle warranty, both in writing.

My roof is leaking. What do you do first?

Find the entry point, which is often not above the stain. We check flashing at chimneys, walls and skylights, vents and pipe boots, the eaves for ice dams, and the attic for condensation. Then we make it watertight and quote the permanent repair in writing. Call 1-800-675-1055 and we will get you booked in.

Is a stain on my ceiling always a roof leak?

No. Attic condensation, a plumbing stack, a bathroom fan vented into the attic and an ice dam at the eaves all leave the same brown ring. That is why we look in the attic as well as on the roof. If it is not the roof, we will tell you that and you will not be charged for a roof repair.

Can you repair a roof leak in winter?

Yes. Flashing, vent boots and shingle repairs can all be done cold; the materials just need handling differently and the work goes slower. What waits for warmer weather is a full tear-off, because shingles need heat to seal down. We will tell you which one your roof needs.
