Roof Problems Downtown Ottawa Homeowners Face

Historic downtown properties need specialized care

🏛️

Heritage Building Challenges

Many downtown Ottawa properties are over 100 years old. Original roof structures, older materials, and historic preservation concerns require careful handling.
💧

Hidden Leaks Damaging Your Property

Water finds its way in through cracked shingles or failed flashing. In older buildings, leaks can cause serious damage to historic features and structures.
🌬️

Exposed Downtown Wind

Downtown Ottawa gets wind tunneling between buildings. Once shingles start flying, your roof deteriorates fast. Missing shingles mean exposed wood and emergency repairs.

Ice Dams Every Winter

Poor insulation and old underlayment let ice build up along eaves. Water backs up under shingles and leaks into your walls and attic.
