Commercial & Residential Roof Replacements and Repairs in Burlington ON

Fixall Roofing is a roofing company in Burlington that replaces, repairs and maintains roofs on homes and commercial buildings. Roofing is the only trade we take on, so the crew that tears off your shingles is the same one that traces leaks, rebuilds flashing and welds flat roof seams.

Homeowners call us for everything from a single lifted shingle to a full tear-off, along with metal, cedar and slate roofs, eavestroughs, skylights and attic ventilation. Owners and managers of plazas, offices, warehouses and condo buildings rely on us for flat roof membranes, condition inspections and repairs that keep tenants dry.

Whatever the building, the advice starts with what we find on the roof and in the attic, not a price sheet. Read on for how lake wind and freeze-thaw cycles age Burlington roofs, what to check before you hire a roofer and how a project runs from first visit to cleanup.

Roofing Services for Burlington Homeowners

Each block below covers a group of related services. The linked pages explain methods, materials and pricing factors in detail.

Roof Replacement and New Roof Installation

Our roof replacement work is a complete tear-off down to the deck, followed by a full system: ice and water shield at the eaves and valleys, synthetic underlayment, new flashing, balanced ventilation and shingles. New roofs on additions and custom builds follow the same layered approach.

Repairs, Leak Detection and 24/7 Emergency Service

From a single lifted shingle to a chimney leak staining the ceiling, our roof repair crews trace water to its source before patching anything. Leak detection, storm and hail damage repair, and temporary tarping all sit in the same service line.

We are open 24/7, so 24/7 emergency roof repair is a phone call away when wind or ice opens the roof overnight.

Shingle, Metal, Flat, Cedar and Slate Roofs

We install asphalt shingles, standing seam and steel panel metal roofing, flat roof membranes, cedar shakes and slate. The right choice depends on roof pitch, the style of the house, how long you plan to stay and your budget, and the written quote spells out those trade-offs.

Eavestroughs, Skylights, Ventilation and Attic Work

A roof works as a system, so we also install seamless eavestroughs and gutter guards, replace and reflash skylights, balance intake and exhaust vents and top up attic insulation. Handling these parts together prevents the condensation and ice dams that shorten a new roof's life.

Commercial Roofing for Burlington Property Managers and Owners

Property managers, condo boards and business owners in Burlington's employment areas along Harvester Road, Fairview Street and the North Service Road need a roofer who plans around tenants and paperwork. We provide WSIB clearance details and certificates of insurance before work starts, and we schedule noisy or odorous work around building operations.

Flat Roof Systems: TPO, EPDM and PVC

We install and repair TPO, EPDM and PVC single-ply membranes, along with modified bitumen. White TPO suits offices and retail units trying to cut cooling loads, EPDM tolerates movement on older warehouse decks, and PVC resists the grease and chemicals found on restaurant and light-industrial roofs.

Commercial Repairs, Inspections and Restoration Coatings

Commercial inspections end with a written condition report, with photos of each defect and repairs ranked by urgency. When a membrane is sound but ageing, a silicone or acrylic restoration coating can extend its service life with far less cost and disruption than a tear-off.

Why Burlington Roofs Wear the Way They Do

Burlington sits between Lake Ontario and the Niagara Escarpment, and both shape how roofs here age. The same shingle can last noticeably longer on a sheltered street than on an exposed lot near the lake.

Lake Ontario Wind and Freeze-Thaw Cycles

Streets near Lakeshore Road and in Aldershot take wind-driven rain off the lake, which pushes water sideways under poorly sealed shingles and flashing. Winters here swing above and below freezing again and again, so water that gets into a crack freezes, expands and opens it further.

That is why we use high-wind nailing patterns and run ice and water shield along eaves, valleys and chimneys. Booking roof inspections each spring catches lifted tabs and split sealant before the next winter widens them.

Housing Stock from Aldershot to Alton Village

Aldershot and the downtown core hold the city's oldest homes, many with plank decking and several generations of past roofing. Roseland and Tyandaga mix mid-century houses with newer infill, while Brant Hills and Headon Forest were largely built from the 1970s to the early 1990s and are on at least their second roof.

Millcroft, which began in the late 1980s, and Orchard, built mostly through the late 1990s and 2000s, often carry original builder-grade shingles or a first replacement. Alton Village went up from the mid-2000s and is now reaching its first full replacement.

Heritage Homes Downtown

Council designated the Burlington Avenue and Ontario Street Heritage Conservation District in 2026, covering 33 properties built mainly in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Other downtown homes appear on the City's Municipal Heritage Register.

Roofing on these properties can need heritage approval, especially where materials, rooflines or visible details change. Confirm requirements with City heritage planning staff before materials are ordered.

Credentials You Can Check Before We Start

These are the protections that come with every Fixall Roofing job, so you know exactly who is working on your roof and what happens if something goes wrong.

  • WSIB coverage: an injured worker claims through WSIB, not against you.
  • Liability insurance: covers damage to your property during the job.
  • Working at Heights training: our crew is trained by a provider approved under Ontario Regulation 297/13.
  • 1-year labour warranty: our workmanship is covered in writing on every job.
  • Manufacturer warranty: material coverage from the shingle or membrane maker, with product documents at completion.

We do not list manufacturer certification tiers or trade certificates unless we can document them. Hold every roofer you interview to the same standard.

How a Fixall Roofing Project Runs

  1. Call or Request a Quote

    Call 289-816-1772 or send the quote form with your address and the problem you are seeing. You receive a booked time for the assessment.

  2. Roof and Attic Assessment

    We inspect shingles, flashing, vents and eavestroughs, then check the attic for daylight, staining, damp sheathing and blocked soffits. The attic often reveals more about a leak or ventilation fault than the roof surface does.

  3. Written Scope with Photos

    You receive a written quote listing materials by brand and product line, the work included and allowances such as deck board replacement. Assessment photos show exactly what we found.

  4. Scheduling and Material Delivery

    We set a start date around the forecast and confirm it with you a few days ahead. Materials are delivered shortly before the start, with the driveway and gardens protected.

  5. Tear-Off and Installation

    The old roofing comes off to the deck, damaged sheathing is replaced, and each opened section is closed in the same day. Most detached Burlington homes take one to three days, depending on size, pitch and weather.

  6. Magnetic Sweep and Cleanup

    Tarps and plywood shield siding, windows and beds during tear-off. The lawn, driveway and gardens are swept with rolling magnets at the end of each day and again at completion.

  7. Final Walkthrough and Warranty Paperwork

    We walk the finished roof with you, or send photos if you are away. You receive the invoice, your 1-year labour warranty and the manufacturer's warranty details for your records.

Our Workmanship Warranty, Explained Simply

Every Fixall Roofing job carries a 1-year labour warranty in writing. If a workmanship problem shows up in that first year, such as a flashing leak or a lifted course, we come back and fix it at no charge.

The roofing materials carry a separate warranty from the manufacturer, and its length depends on the product line you choose. That coverage handles defects in the shingles or membrane, and some programs require registration or a full matching system of components.

Longer workmanship terms you see advertised often carry conditions, so read what they exclude before comparing. Beyond the first year, roof maintenance plans are the practical way to catch small issues before they become leaks.

Recent Roofing Projects in Burlington

Most of our Burlington calendar is made up of a few recurring job types. Tear-offs on 1970s and 1980s homes in Brant Hills and Headon Forest often expose delaminated sheathing at the eaves, which is replaced before the new system goes on.

In Millcroft and Orchard, the typical job replaces original builder-grade shingles and corrects attic ventilation that was undersized from the start. Downtown and in Aldershot, chimney flashing rebuilds and two-layer tear-offs over plank decks are regular calls.

Burlington Roofing FAQs

Do I need a permit to replace my roof in Burlington?

The City of Burlington generally does not require a building permit to replace shingles with the same material when the roof has fewer than three layers. Structural changes, new skylight openings and changes to the roof framing do need a permit, and heritage properties may need heritage approval. Confirm with the City's building department before work starts.

How much does a new roof cost in Burlington?

As a general estimate, most asphalt shingle replacements on detached Burlington homes fall in roughly the $9,000 to $20,000 range, depending on roof size, pitch, layers and deck repairs. Metal, cedar and slate cost considerably more. A written quote follows an on-site assessment.

Is $30,000 too much for a roof?

For a large, steep or cut-up roof, a metal installation, or a job needing full re-sheathing, $30,000 can be a fair price. For an average two-storey home with a simple gable roof in asphalt shingles, it is usually high. Ask for an itemized quote and compare it line by line.

When is the best time of year to replace a roof in Burlington?

Late spring to early fall is best, because shingle sealant strips need warmth to bond properly. September and October are peak months for Burlington roofers, so booking in early summer gives you more choice of dates.

Are your crews covered by WSIB and insured?

Yes, our crews are covered by WSIB and we carry liability insurance, with a certificate of insurance available on request. Homeowners hiring for work on their own home are exempt from the WSIB clearance requirement, but coverage still protects you if a worker is hurt on your property.

Do you tear off old shingles or roof over them?

A full tear-off is our standard. Removing the old layers lets us inspect and repair the deck and keeps manufacturer warranties valid. It also avoids adding weight and building toward the three-layer point at which Burlington requires a permit.

Do you answer roofing emergencies at night and on weekends?

Yes, we are open 24/7, including nights, weekends and holidays. Call rather than email so we can talk through temporary steps, such as moving valuables and containing drips, while a crew is arranged.
