Replaced Roof

I had to replace the shingles from my roof due to age so I decided to call Avenue Road Roofing. They offered me a reasonable rate so I decided to hire them. They were extremely professional and make sure that the job is done correctly to not only satisfy me but to also prevent them from returning to do any repairs. The quality of the products were excellent they even reviewed their work each step of the way. I high recommend them!

Eavestrough work

I recently had Avenue Road Roofing install new eavestrough on my house in Barrie, the whole experience was very pleasing, the responce time was quick, and the overall install was very professional, no problems at all. even though the job was out of the city of Toronto the price was very resonable and higher quality than installers in Barrie. We are very happy and would recommend Avenue Road Roofing, and use them in the future.

Skylight (Roof) Repair

We purchased a home that already had a Skylight leak issue in the past as the previous owner told us he had it repaired once already. Well, it wasn’t very long before that repair became a leak again and a real problem fairly quickly and was causing damage to our ceiling on the inside as well. Considering the Skylight was ‘fixed’ once already I realized we had better get some professionals in to properly repair it this time around. I also have a policy of not getting work performed any longer by tradesmen or anyone who appears to be working ‘out of their car’ as I made that unfortunate mistake that way with a basement renovation and regret that to this day. So I set out to find a larger reputable company and while I have seen their ads or signs many places, I’ve never had work done by them in the past. I placed a call in to Avenue Road Roofing and had someone come out fairly quickly to assess the Skylight. The next day I received a phone call to book the repair for the following morning. Someone arrived in the morning as scheduled and within 4 hours had the repair completed and I was made aware of what the real issues were with the Skylight and why this had happened. And it was lucky for us since there was rain in the forecast and I was anxious to see how the repair would hold up. Well, I would have to say that it’s been perfectly dry since and we can now repair the ceiling and interior water damage safely without the worries of it leaking again. I was so impressed on how quick and streamlined the project went from my initial phone call to someone calling to book and then arriving quickly and completing the job properly. I’m also impressed with the cleanup with no mess left on the roof or on ground…totally professional from first call to cleanup. I couldn’t nitpick on even the cleanliness of the job and could honestly recommend Avenue Road Roofing to anyone wanting to deal with a very professional company. My experience was great.

Roofers

Great flat roofer specialists, featured on episode two of the Mike Holms show. Knowledgable, fast and efficient, were able to explain what the problem was, and able to fix it within our own timeframe.

Remove and replace a few damaged roof shingles

Called three well reviewed roofers on Home stars. Avenue Rood Roofers had a knowledgeable person answering the phone, the other two I left a message and never got my call returned. Avenue Roof Roofers called me back within 15 minutes as promised to confirm a 2pm appt that day. They came on time, gave me a reasonable quote for a small job and came back, repleaced the damaged singles as promised.
The other two companies didn't even bother to call me back as it was a small job. Thank you Avenue Road Roofing. Now I know why Mile Homes uses these guys on his show,

new shingle roof with ice shield protection

I replaced my shingles in 2001 with 30 year waranty shingles and was very concerned to discover them failing so quickly.

I sought out several reputable contractors to replace my shingles and given my previous experience I paid extra attention to the quality of the shingles and the company warranties. I was very pleased with the time and care that Avenue Road Roofing provided to me to explain the different types of shingles, their own experience with the CertainTeed shingles, and their qualifications as a CertainTeed SELECT ShingleMaster. They also gave me the opportunity to speak directly to the CertainTeed Sales reps to check out the warranty information.

In addition to my old shingles failing I had suffered water damage due to ice build up on the roof in 2010. Avenue Road Roofing recommended solutions that would eliminate that potential for water damage, gave me a fair price for the work to be done, and their staff completed the work in a timely and expert fashion.

While some would say there are no guarantees in the roofing business, I am satisfied that I have done my best to find a professional company that will stand behind its work, a warranty that is in reasonably plain English, and workmanship that I trust will stand the test of our our Canadian weather.

Flat roof and shingle replacement

Avenue Road should not do flat roofs. it is a complicated application and should not be left to subcontractors. They replaced our flat roof and shingles in 2006. The install was done in the winter and every spring and every fall since then there has been a leak somewhere in the roof. The warranty people do come, but with varying levels of knowledge. One said it was plumbing. One said it was condensation. So far they have replaced all the roof vents on the back of the house (warranty), did one repair of a seam (warranty) and replaced all the downspouts and scuppers ($6000 on top of the original install) our house is 40x30ft, so not that grand that it warrants almost $30,000 in roof expenses. After several visits by the warranty team and many complaints they agreed to pay for the $2000 in interior damage. It has been 3 months and we are still waiting for payment. We asked to speak to the owner and he didn't even try to make contact with us. They don't use email. The voicemails from Doug Cochrane have been 'call me back'. The website does not give you a copy of the request. They don't acknowledge faxes. Had I known better I would have paid less and gone with someone else.

Company Response

Dear Michelle, It was a pleasure meeting both yourself and your husband and I’m happy I was able to address all of the issues to your satisfaction. I was even happier to receive your e-mail stating that after all of these torrential rains as of late, there has been no detectable leakage of any kind. I look forward to checking the roof over in Nov as agreed in order to ensure that the roofing system is in good shape and will continue to perform without problem. You have all of my contact information including my cell and if there are any problems or concerns at anytime please feel free to call me directly. See you in the fall – thx Ed (Partner)

shingles

there were 3 men who came earlier in the week than they said they would so I was pleased. They arrived at 08:30 and were finished before 1700. The man who gave me the estimate was professional but friendly. I thought the price was a little high but they were efficient, friendly and cleaned up well afterward so I got what I paid for and would use them again.
