Should your roof appear to sink or buckle, contact a roofer immediately! This is a clear indicator of rot. Your support beams, studs and substrate provide structural integrity. If these become rotten, your roof’s ability to protect your home from the elements and further water damage is severely compromised.

If you notice water stains or bowing in your ceiling this indicates water ingress and can be the result of a bad roof, a damaged air vent, vent pipe or shingle loss or breakdown. If large water spots appear on your ceilings or walls, call a roofer immediately to have them safely check the integrity of your roof.

Moss and algae can grow beneath a roof causing structural damage. This continued growth will lift the edges of the shingles and allow ingress of water resulting in “ice damming” during winter months.

Missing, broken or cracked shingles can often be as a result of high winds or other severe weather. While it is easy to replace one or two shingles, it is critical the overall roof be inspected. Your shingles ARE your roof’s defense against water damage. It is essential to replace your roof if too many shingles are missing or you see cracked shingles throughout the area of your roof.

All roofing is weather-dependant.  We typically can remove and replace 1000 – 2000 square feet per day.  Your roof is covered overnight and never left exposed to the elements.

YES, we offer ALL manufacturer Warranties    We typically use an IKO shingle.  Vernon Roofing is a “Shield Pro Plus” installer.  We are trained and certified by the manufacturer to insure the proper application. As long as your installer holds this, the manufacturer will warranty the roof.  EVEN if the installer closes its business. As certified IKO Shield ProPlus-Installers, we offer the minimum 35-year Shingle Warranty.

We do not charge for our estimates.

Your estimate is valid for 90 days from the date issued.

We can show you our Liability Insurance certificate and WCB coverage upon request.  This is an extremely important consideration when picking an installer.

In the event that in the process of installation it is noted a sheet of plywood requires replacement or a skylight is cracked, these issues are brought to your attention immediately.  This would be discussed with you as a “contract addition”.

No. These installations are done by gutter installers and require a separate quotation from what we provide. Typically, any gutter changes/installation are done AFTER roof replacement.

Yes, we replace existing skylights as well as cut in and install in new locations.

We offer Ridge venting with your installation if desired.  Venting will be replaced to code and is part of your typical estimate.

We do have small samples; however, it is best to view them at a supplier (i.e. home renovation box store, local hardware store) as they are installed on the outside of the building to show the true color in the elements.

Typically, the Okanagan does not have the heavy snow loads of Northern BC and a shingle roof is a less expensive approach.  We DO install metal roofs.

Once we have cleared your gutters and the refuse bin has been removed, an employee will “rake” the areas around the house with a large magnet to locate any errant nails.  All material is cleared away.

We do our best to place the refuse bin in an area that will have the least impact on the ground below. We ARE on the roof and while rare, materials can come down off the roof.  We ask that you do your best to protect any areas that might be affected by this.  Leaning a sheet of plywood or “tenting” the plants can help.

Construction is messy, hot, and tends to be a bit noisy.  We do our BEST to mitigate any problems, but there will always be a small degree of inconvenience.  Your understanding and patience are appreciated.
