Roof Replacement

John was a knowledgeable individual that made me feel confident that i was choosing the right contractor. His crew, Nick and David, were polite and informative and excellent workers. The finished job showed how much pride they took in their work. The clean up was thorough. I would not hesitate to recommend this company to any of my friends. Thanks John and crew.

Flat Roof Renovation

John and his team were extremely professional and efficient replacing our flat roof. They addressed our limited access and neighborly relations issues with diplomacy and care, all within the timeframe and price quoted. No surprises just quality workmanship and meticulous clean up when the job was done!
We previously hired John, 10 years ago, to replace the shingle and wood shake portion of our roof with the same great result. We couldn't be happier and highly recommend John Stewart Roofing!

Shingle and Flat Roof Repair

Work Completed May 2017 - Full shingle replacement and Flat Roof and Dormer Roof replacements

My moms roof was in desperate need of repair. Reviewed a handful of companies but John came by and took his time reviewing the property and explaining the entire process that would be involved. There was no high pressure sales tactics used and John was very personable and professional. He provided ample amounts of information regarding his business, insurance / wsib coverage, materials used, which as a potential customer puts you at ease to know his business is legitimate. I also noticed the good ratings on Home Stars and no outstanding issues with the BBB.

His team worked hard over the 3 days and cleaned everything and finished the job completely as promised.

I would highly recommend using John's company to anyone. The work does come with a multiyear warranty and a hard working team.

Thanks again John

Shingled roof replacement (front porch and 2 storey)

John did a very thorough inspection of our roof(both shingled and flat)--he took pictures of the problem areas (which he sent to us)and then both explained in person and through email, what needed to be done. A few weeks later, his crew arrived to replaced the shingled roof and did a great job! We often get compliments from our neighbors.We haven't had any issues since they replaced the shingled roof nearly 8 months ago. His crew also were extremely tidy and I couldn't even tell that they were there when they were done the job. I will definitely use J Stewart roofing again when we repair our flat roof and recommend him often to friends.

Thanks for this great review Christina!
I really like it that the clean up was done so well that you couldn't tell we'd been there. A thorough clean up is a big part of roofing and homeowners are very happy to see their property left clean and tidy when we're finished. Nice to hear your neighbors have complimented you on the roof as well!

Roof shingle replacement (entire roof)

This was a very professional team from top to bottom. Everyone was very friendly and courteous

Most important, the roofing work done by the team was excellent. The project was well planned and executed smoothly. The team had everything under control as demonstrated by having to work through rain interruptions.

Approximate cost of services:
$6,000.00

two residential roofs

Great roofer, knows shingle and flat roof installation well. Flashing perfect. Site cleanup perfect (nail-free). Roofs have proven durable (over 10 years in one case), survived heavy winds rains, no leaks. Good bet for quality roof!

Roof Replacement

We live in a semi-detached house with a sloped roof in the front and a flat roof in the back. We hired them to replace the sloped roof, which included removal of the original 100 year-old cedar shingles and 2 or 3 other layers of shingles. They were professional and easy to work with (and boy did they work hard)! They also did an excellent job of cleaning up.

Approximate cost of services:
$5,800.00

Flat roofs are particularly tricky to do and have become a specialty for J. Stewart Roofing Ltd. (For further details check out the newspaper article from the Toronto Star on this website. It is vital to gain real knowledge of the materials & techniques to not get stuck in just one way of doing things and stop there.

In this way they have gained a greater library of knowledge on which to draw from, enabling them to know what combination of materials best for each unique customer’s job are presented to them.
