Asphalt Shingle Roofing in Ancaster

Most residential homes in Ancaster take 1–3 days for a complete asphalt shingle roof replacement, depending on size, roof complexity, and weather. Larger homes or projects requiring sheathing repairs or ventilation upgrades may take longer. We keep you updated daily from tear-off to final cleanup.

Yes, when conditions are safe. We use winter-rated underlayments and installation methods that perform through Ontario's freeze–thaw cycles and lake-effect weather. If a full replacement isn't ideal in deep winter, we can complete emergency repairs and temporary weatherproofing, then schedule the main installation for better weather.

Architectural shingles are premium, multi-layered shingles with enhanced thickness, superior wind resistance (up to 130 mph), lifetime warranties, and dimensional appearance. 3-tab shingles are budget-friendly, single-layer shingles with a flat, uniform look and shorter warranties. Most Ancaster homeowners choose architectural shingles for better durability and curb appeal.

In most Ancaster municipalities, permits are generally not required for like-for-like asphalt shingle roof replacements. If your project involves structural changes, new skylights, or heritage properties — or if your city requires permits for re-roofing — we'll advise you and help with any required paperwork.

We provide a lifetime workmanship warranty on our installations plus full manufacturer warranties on shingles, underlayment, and accessories (typically 25–50 years depending on the product). All coverage details and registration steps are included with your quote and final invoice for complete peace of mind.

Costs depend on roof size, pitch, layers to remove, ventilation needs, and the shingles you choose. Most asphalt shingle roof replacements across Ancaster range from $8,000–$20,000+. After an on-site inspection, we provide a detailed fixed-price quote with no surprises, plus financing options if preferred.

Ice dam prevention requires ice & water shield installation at eaves, valleys, and penetrations, plus proper attic ventilation and insulation. We install ridge vents, soffit vents, and adequate intake/exhaust systems to regulate attic temperature and prevent the freeze-thaw cycle that causes ice dams.

If safe, take photos from the ground and check your attic for leaks. Then call us for emergency storm damage repair. We'll secure the exposed area, replace missing shingles, and assess whether the damage is isolated or indicates your roof is nearing end-of-life — common after severe wind events in Ancaster.

We offer emergency roof repair services for active leaks across Ancaster. Our goal is to secure the leak and prevent interior damage as quickly as possible. We provide temporary weatherproofing immediately, then return to complete permanent repairs at your convenience.

It depends on your roof's age, condition, and extent of damage. If the roof is generally sound and the issue is localized (flashing, vents, or a small section), targeted repairs may be enough. If you're seeing widespread curling, granule loss, or multiple leak points, full replacement typically makes more sense long-term. We'll assess honestly and present all options with transparent pricing.
