Roofing Contractor in Etobicoke
From the Kingsway to the lakeshore.
Steep Tudor revival roofs in The Kingsway, lake-exposed homes in Mimico and Long Branch, and post-war houses in between. Etobicoke asks a lot of a roofer.

Roof replacement and repair in Etobicoke
Etobicoke runs from the Lake Ontario shoreline up through the Humber River valley, and its roofs change with it. In The Kingsway and Humber Valley Village, storybook Tudor revival homes carry steep slopes, turrets and valleys. Down on the lakeshore, compact wartime and post-war homes take the full force of the wind off the lake.
We match the approach to the house: careful flashing and matched materials on character homes, and stronger fastening and edge detailing where the lake wind lifts shingles.
Local homes
The roofs we work on in Etobicoke
Tudor revival and storybook homes with steep, complex roofs in The Kingsway, mid-century ranch homes in Markland Wood and Thorncrest, and wartime storey-and-a-half houses along the lakeshore with dormers and low headroom attics.
What the weather does here
Lakeshore neighbourhoods face strong winds off Lake Ontario that lift shingle edges and drive rain sideways under flashings. Further north, the Humber valley's mature trees bring shade, moss and clogged eavestroughs.

Questions
Etobicoke roofing questions
Can you match the look of an older Kingsway roof?
Yes. We work in architectural shingles, cedar, slate and metal, and choose profiles and colours that suit the house rather than fighting it.
My lakeshore roof keeps losing shingles in storms. Why?
Usually a combination of wind exposure, nailing and worn sealant strips. We install with high-wind fastening patterns and properly sealed starter courses along the edges.
Do you serve all of Etobicoke?
Yes, from Long Branch and Mimico up to Rexdale and Humber Summit.
