Roofing Barrie

We will send an inspector to your home to confirm if you need repairs or a complete replacement. Some roofing problems cannot be fixed by simple repairs. You should not postpone roof replacement because it exposes your home to several risks. You will be exposing your wooden beams to water damage, there is a risk of electrical issues, you can get pest damage, and there is a risk of mould and mildew growth. Leaks make your home less energy efficient, cause flooding and damage your belongings, walls, and ceilings.

Roof replacement should only be done by a professional. This ensures the manufacturer’s warranty is not void, saves you from having to buy the tools, equipment, and safety gear needed for the job, ensures the roof is expertly installed for maximum longevity, and helps you avoid workplace accidents. At D’Angelo & Sons, we have been replacing roofs for over 40 years. We have learnt from our successes and failures, which allows us to serve you better. We have a strong local presence, which means we understand the local climate and regulations.

During the inspection, we will be on the lookout for common causes of roof leaks. These include debris buildup, missing shingles, cracked roof vents, and old roofs that are cracking due to tear and wear. When a leak goes unchecked, it can cause severe problems to the roof structure, like wood rot and metal rusting. A leaky roof can also damage insulation like fibreglass. Other dangers of a leaky roof are electrical fire accidents, slip and fall injuries, mould and mildew growth, and pest infestation.

Avoid the temptation of DIY roof repairs. Even if you have the skills, safety gear, and tools needed, doing the job yourself means you risk voiding the manufacturer’s warranty. When you hire us, we will do an inspection to identify the source of the leak, after which we will come up with a customized solution and a quote. At D’Angelo & Sons, we have been repairing roofs since 1978. We are committed to timely execution and adherence to the highest safety and quality standards. We have dump trucks to haul debris from the project away.

Metal roofs are 100% recyclable, but there are other reasons why more Canadians are going for them. Metal roofs are durable and can withstand Ontario weather. This is because of their moisture resistance. They are also pest and fire-resistant. The Roofers Union of Canada puts the longevity of metal roofs between 40 and 70 years, depending on the material. The most common metal roofing materials we encounter as roofers in Barrie are copper, aluminum, zinc, and steel.

Even with the right skills and tools, you should still leave metal roof installation to a roofing company in Barrie. Installing a metal roof is more than just laying the roofing material. You must first select the right roofing material, ensure that the slope is optimized for snow and rain shedding, make sure the design is aesthetically pleasing, ensure there are no accidents, and provide the proper workmanship to ensure there are no leaks. At D’Angelo and Sons, our roofers have the training and experience to install metal roofing Barrie that will last a lifetime. We offer a workmanship warranty, which shows our dedication to quality.

Flat roofs are popular because they give homeowners extra space that they can use for solar panel installation, HVAC installation, setting up a garden, or other purposes. Flat roofs are cheaper and less expensive compared to pitched roofs. However, a flat roof will only serve you as intended if you do proper maintenance, given its direct exposure to the elements and slight slope. Flat roofs are susceptible to leaks since water does not drain as efficiently as with pitched roofs. Buckling is also a frequent problem when a house shifts and settles. Pooling water can cause deterioration of your roof and shorten its lifetime.

At D'Angelo & Sons, other common flat roof problems that we deal with are alligatoring, flashing, and cracking. Our team has experience working with EPDM roofs, gravel/tar roofs, modified bitumen roofs, and other types of flat roofs. Flat roof repairs should only be done by a professional to prevent the voiding of the manufacturer's warranty. Our team has the right tools, safety gear, and materials for the job. We will work within the set timelines and clean up before we leave.

You should seek immediate help when you get a roofing emergency. Whether the roofing emergency is caused by extreme climatic conditions like hailstorms, a natural disaster, a fallen tree, or an animal, fixing the problem early makes all the difference. Postponing repairs exposes your home to structural and fire damage and damage to your walls, ceilings, and property. Your family will also be at risk, especially if the emergency happens at night.
As you wait for us to arrive, take the time to keep your family out of harm's way, clear the area if this can be done safely, and contain the damage, such as by covering furniture with plastic sheets and documenting the damage for insurance purposes.

We will either do repairs or replacement, based on the nature of the emergency. Our team has the vehicles, tools, equipment, materials, and supplies needed for the job. We will first fix the immediate problem, such as flooding or leaks and then work towards a permanent solution.
