Roof work

Our roof needed some work done and we called them for our free estimate. When they arrived, we liked what they had to say and we went with them. I definitely recommend them to anyone.

shingle work for Condominium

I was on the Board of directors for a condominium in Mississauga. We had a large roofing job and after receiving several quotations, we were most impressed with the one from Avenue Road Roofing. In the end, they did a very professional job and completed the work within the timeline they had mentioned...something that is not always the case with trades. I would use them again.

new roof

Norman, a very patient and knowledgeable salesperson from Avenue Road Roofing took the time to explain about the material and the work involved. The friendly roofing crew did a professional job and had removed all the old materials and nails as promised. The supervisor came and inspected the work done.

Bungalow roof replacement

As a new homeowner, I was thrilled to discover the prior owners had installed heavy, impractical concrete composite tile roofing. It was badly worn early in it's theoretical life, and required expensive disposal. Avenue Road provided one of the more competitive quotes, and crucially, knew about that kind of roofing and how to handle it (many didn't.) The work was completed quickly, financing was easy, and their clean-up was excellent. Repairing some squirrel damage around two points was intended to be part of the work, but not clearly documented in the contract (rookie mistake), which made for some awkward and less-than-congenial follow-up conversations, but eventually, all was made right without additional charge. I'd recommend them, provided you do your homework and are thorough in documenting the exact scope and scale of work - I will use them myself again.

Estimation for Leaks

Assisted Review

An assisted review is collected by a contractor on behalf of the homeowner after their work is completed. The homeowner must confirm the text of the review and may make any changes she or he deems appropriate. The homeowner then assigns the contractor a review score out of 10. Assisted reviews receive the same scrutiny as other reviews and must follow our review guidelines.

I just wanted to relay the experience my wife and I had with T.A. with your company Avenue Road Roofing. We've noticed small trickles of water coming into our home over the last few months after rain, so after eliminating other possible issues, we feared the worst, that we needed to replace the roof, a costly endeavour to say the least.
We proceeded to contact about 6 different roofing companies to have them come by for an estimate. Two didn't even bother calling back, one was late, and one guy's phone rang about 6 times while he was in our home, and he took the calls 4 times. Not very professional.
Only two guys pulled out a ladder, and proceeded to take a look at our roof which is quite high since it's a narrow but tall townhouse.
Out of those two guys, only one guy really stood out. That was T.A. from Avenue Road Roofing. Trevor was on time, friendly and took the time to ask us many questions about our leak. He seemed to genuinely want to find the source of the problem. Next, he grabbed his ladder and said he'd take a look, which involved bringing the ladder through our house, a tad cumbersome for him perhaps but he didn't seem to mind.
He gets to the roof and immediately notices that our eavestrough is completely full of leaves, dirt,soil,and spends the next 15 minutes pulling it out by hand to clear it out. He also brought our garden hose up with him and ran some water through the downspout to check for clogging.
I should mention here as well that every other company immediately said we needed a new roof. Trevor was the oly one who didn't automatically draw that conclusion. In fact, he was the only one who said he estimated the roof still had "some life" -about 2-3 years.
After getting down from the roof, he said that he thinks he might have solved the problem, that the excessive clogged trough was quite possiby the issue, as the shingles looked ok.
Obviously we were glad to hear this news, and I proceeded to ask Trevor what I owe him. "Nothing" he replied. He added that if that didn't solve the problem, he'd obviously give us a quote on the roof, but if it wasn't necessary, there's absolutely no charge. His thinking was that if/when we do in fact need a roof, we'd remember this experience and call him at Avenue Road Roofing.
Well trevor, you're absolutely right.
Even if the roof is in fact the issue, Trevor was the only one who went the extra mile without earning a dime (I tried to give him money but he wouldn't take it) so that to me is a sign of an honest person, which reflects well on Avenue Road Roofing.
And to prove the power of word of mouth, this morning I came into work and relayed the story to a colleague. This particular colleague just also happens to be needing a new roof soon, and Avenue Road Roofing, and Trevor in particular , will be getting a call all based on the experience we had.
Thank you Trevor! (And good luck with your own new house)

Flat Roof Tear off ad Replace

Good first impression. Strong sales force. Caution urged when confirming details regarding dates, times, and materials used. Follow up once job is complete for revisions/repairs less than stellar. Overall I give them a 4 our of 5 as they did what they said they would do, but little else and although mistakes were made and repairs slow to respond...in the end I was satisfied. Nice that the warranty is transferrable too.

Roof Repair and Antenna Removal

We hired Avenue Road Roofing to repair some damage to our roof and to remove a large TV antenna from the side of our house. The work was done quickly and professionally, although some minor damage was done to our house. I was contacted by Avenue Road Roofing's customer relations department and they remedied the situation, really going above and beyond the call of duty. Hire them with confidence.

Roofing

I was pleasantly surprised of the quality and workmanship of Avenue Road. I was scepticul at first as have had many repairs done previously by other companies. They also repaired something for me after their quote as its wasn't noticed originally and didn't charge me extra.
