New roof, skylights and improved venting
We hired Walker Roofing to redo our shingles based both on the reviews from homestars and that it seemed everyone in our neighbourhood was using them as well. Yes it wasn't cheap, but from start to finish their service and attention to detail were outstanding. Here are the highlights - They proactively communicated arrival times and work durations - They took great care to ensure site safety and that no nails were left behind - Every person we dealt with was professional and courteous - They replaced not only the shingles, but 2 skylights, created new venting to solve a humidity problem in the attic, and discovered part of the original roof was floating and nailed everything down securely. - When the work was done, Peter Walker himself came to walk me through the work that had been done and to answer any questions I had About 9 months later after a lot of snow and ice we noticed a leak coming through the ceiling. Walker Roofing returned our call immediately and came out right away to get up on the roof and clear off any unmelted snow/ice around the suspected source, and then Peter Walker called and came over to personally inspect the work. We agreed on a taller vent based on the angle of the roof and the higher likelihood of snow accumulation in this particular area (a unique issue of the design of our house) HERE IS THE BEST PART: Between discussing the new vent and the installation of the new vent we had another big snowstorm and Walker Roofing proactively (without waiting for us to let them know) sent their people to the house to clear off our roof in this area to prevent any further problems. This to me is the reason you hire a company like Walker. They aren't cheap, but their attention to detail is excellent and their response to issues is fast, professional and above average. Excellent job guys!
