Roof Replacement and Repair in Barrhaven
We replace complete roofs, repair leaks and wind damage, and fix the attic ventilation problems that shorten shingle life in Barrhaven's newer homes. Most Barrhaven calls are either a first full re-roof or storm damage on a roof that still has years left.
Our roof replacement service covers tear-off to the deck, decking repairs, synthetic underlayment, ice and water membrane at eaves and valleys, and architectural shingles from IKO, GAF or CertainTeed. Most Barrhaven homes have a single layer of shingles, which keeps tear-off simpler than in older suburbs.
Not sure you need a new roof yet? A professional roof inspection gives you photos of every slope, an attic check and an honest estimate of remaining life.
Barrhaven was farmland until Mel Barr began building in the 1960s, and the land is still flat and open. Homes on the edges, facing fields to the south and west, take the full force of prevailing winds.
The original 1960s and 1970s streets of Old Barrhaven are a different job. Those homes are on their second or third roof, so we plan for two layers of shingles, plank or early plywood decking, and chimney flashing that has been patched before.
Whatever the age, we install eave protection to Ontario Building Code requirements: membrane from the roof edge at least 900 mm up the slope and at least 300 mm past the inside face of the exterior wall. On builder homes with short overhangs we usually run it further, since ice dams start right at that line.
