Everything you need to know about prices and materials for redoing your roof
1 When should you consider a complete roof replacement?
A roof is not replaced lightly. But at a certain stage, spot repairs are no longer enough to maintain waterproofing: they end up costing more than a well-planned replacement. Signs that point to a complete replacement generally include recurrent leaks despite repeated interventions, a membrane or shingles deteriorated over a large area, or a roof that is approaching or exceeding its useful life. A professional inspection can determine this precisely.
2The most common roof types in Montreal
Montreal's building stock is diverse, and its roofs are just as varied. Asphalt shingles dominate on the pitched roofs of single-family homes and plexes: easy to install, available in several formats, and well-suited to steep slopes. Flat roofs, very common on duplexes and triplexes in the city center, primarily feature elastomeric membranes or gravel on two-ply systems. Slate and metal remain niche choices. The former for heritage buildings, the latter for its longevity and lightness. Each roof type has its installation constraints, structural requirements, and cost logic.
3Which material to choose based on your building?
The right material depends on the type of roof and the building. Asphalt shingles remain the go-to for pitched roofs: solid, economical, available in several formats. Pre-painted sheet metal lasts for decades on steep slopes with minimal maintenance. For flat roofs, SBS elastomeric membrane is popular in Quebec due to its performance in freezing conditions. Slate requires a reinforced structure and an experienced roofer, but its longevity far exceeds expectations. Our roofers evaluate your building before recommending a material, not the other way around.
4What influences the cost of a roof replacement
The final price of a replacement depends on several variables: the area to be covered, the number of existing layers to be removed, the complexity of the roof's geometry (dormers, chimneys, flashings), the chosen material, and the condition of the underlying structure. A simple roof with straight slopes costs less to replace than a mansard roof with multiple dormers. The season and site accessibility also play a role. To get a reliable figure, a customized quote after inspection remains the only valid approach.

Materials we install during a replacement:
1Elastomers
Waterproof and durable, elastomeric membrane is particularly suited to low-slope sections. It withstands the extreme temperature variations of Quebec winters very well.
2Slate
The ultimate premium material, slate is a staple for heritage buildings. It is exceptionally long-lasting but requires a solid load-bearing structure due to its weight.
3Shingles
Asphalt or wood, depending on the building and budget. Asphalt shingles are the most common: resistant to moisture, easy to maintain on steep slopes.
4Metal
Lightweight, recyclable, and remarkably resistant to snow. A well-executed installation easily lasts 40 years. The only downside: it can be noisy in the rain depending on the type of installation.
Our approach: inspection first, intervention second
No two roofs age the same way: pitch, materials, and exposure all change the nature of the problem—and the solution. Our roofers first assess your exact setup to pinpoint the best-suited service. You receive a clear recommendation, tailored to your building and your budget.

Roof Replacement
Look beyond just another repair.
An endless cycle of repairs often signals a deeper problem. At some point, roof replacement costs less than a series of temporary fixes. The chosen material takes into account your building and Montreal's climate, with installation compliant with RBQ standards at every step.

Roof Repair
Fix the problem before it worsens.
The freezing and thawing of the Quebec winter weaken Montreal roofs, often without being visible at first glance. Blisters, peeling, cracks around penetrations: our roofers trace back to the real cause rather than patching the symptom. The roof repair is then carried out with materials chosen to last over time.

Roof Inspection
A clear report is better than a costly surprise.
Identifying a fragile area before it becomes a structural problem is the whole point of an annual roof inspection. Our roofers examine the membrane, flashings, drains, and junctions. You then receive a detailed report to prioritize work according to your budget.
