What We Install

Roofing Systems.

Three systems. Each chosen for performance.
Each installed to the same exacting standard.

Asphalt Shingles

The most proven roofing system in Canada, installed right. We use GAF Timberline architectural laminate shingles — thicker, more durable, and better-looking than the 3-tab standard on older homes. With proper installation and ventilation, you’re looking at 25 to 30 years of clean, reliable protection. The right call when you want quality without paying for more than you need.

GAF Timberline25–30 Year LifeArchitectural Laminate

Standing Seam Metal

Continuous vertical panels, concealed fasteners, no exposed hardware. The concealed fastener system eliminates the failure point that eventually compromises most roofs. We install exclusively with Ideal Roofing’s H-F and Junior panel system — from Canadian Steel Mills along with Canadian manufacturing since 1929, engineered for residential and commercial builds. The highest-performing roof we offer, and it looks the part.

Metal Shingles

Steel construction, traditional shingle profile. We source exclusively from Ideal Roofing’s Wakefield Bridge line — a stucco-embossed steel shingle with a Kynar 500 resin-based PVDF finish, rated to 241 km/h winds. It outperforms asphalt in every category while fitting naturally into any neighbourhood. The upgrade that doesn’t announce itself.

Our Supply Standard

Sourced From Ideal Roofing

Canadian-manufactured since 1929. Every metal product we install comes exclusively from Ideal Roofing — a company that has engineered roofing systems for Canadian climates longer than most competitors have existed. When we specify metal, we specify the best. That’s not a preference. It’s a policy.
