Toronto Roofing

 Here M&R Roofing is repairing and replacing slate roof tiles in East York, Toronto. 

We recently installed cedar shingles on a mansard roof in Lawrence Park, Toronto.  The video slideshow showcases the impressive improvement in the semi-detached homes exterior appearance due to the cedar shingles. 

A Toronto client's flat roof was leaking during rains.  During a roof inspection we noticed the rubber membrane around the drain was loose and lifting.  We suspected water rushing towards the drain was running under the membrane.  We repaired the area by applying a SBS 250 cap membrane patch.

Many downtown Toronto and Oakville homes are situated in areas surrounded by tall trees, thus leaf clogged eavestroughs, gutters and downspouts are inevitable without the Smart Screen^TM gutter protection system. 

Here is something we came across this past winter in Cabbagetown Toronto, heating cables which were clearly not working because they had not been installed into the downspout and eavestrough.  The previous contractor had stuffed them in the drain pipe and caused blockage of the downspout and overflow of the eavestrough. Yikes! 

Before embarking on renovating the interior of her home, our Cabbagetown Toronto client appropriately decided to first replace her flat roof and also install a larger curb mounted skylight.

We recently completed work on two adjacent properties on Sackville Street in the downtown Toronto Cabbagetown neighbourhood.  The work included two new flat roofs, four new skylights, new asphalt shingles on a sloped roof section and some other minor repairs.

Some downtown Toronto homes feature a rear sloped roof with a dormer with a walkout onto a flat roof. Very often we encounter that the door step has not been appropriately sealed and flashed and is therefore leaking, as was the case with out client’s home in the the downtown Toronto Annex neighbourhood.

It is evident the roofing season has began thanks to the abundance of bandit roofing contractor signs appearing illegally in public and private spaces.  Are you fed up with these eye sores? 

Here is an example of an inappropriate installation of a chimney flashing on a sloped roof that is sure to leak.  When we examined the client's roof we easily spotted this inappropriate installation as the tall cone chimney flashing was installed over the shingles.
