Replace Shingling on Bungalow

Allstate Roofing is Nelson and his crew. Nelson estimates the job and does the job. This isn't a case where you hire a reputable roofing company only to find they've subcontracted out the work.

Despite its small size Allstate Roofing is selected and certified by a major player in the roofing business.

However, Nelson has rules. He doesn't negotiate on price. But his price will be better than that of the major companies. It won't match the cheapest prices. He doesn't use fiberglass shingles because he thinks they don't stand up to Toronto winters. He won't use a 20 year warranty shingle --- a 25 year warranty shingle isn't much more expensive.

He's a bit softer on the subject of roof vents. Initially, we didn't want to put vents on the front of the roof. Eventually, he did convince us to put color coordinated roof vents in the front. According to Nelson, without vents in the front of the roof, you can have condensation in the attic which can damage the plywood under the shingles.

Nelson's price includes everything needed for a good job --- ice shield, additional vents, proper flashing and caulking. When the job was finished, I went on the roof and saw how carefully everything was done. Nelson pointed out other roofs where the flashing around chimney's hadn't been done properly.

He even promises to come back a few weeks after the job is finished to check that the caulking hasn't moved out of place. According to my brother, even after that time, Nelson keeps an eye out on his work.

This is a man who takes great pride in doing an excellent job at a better price. It was a pleasure to hire him.
