I could not be happier with Elgin Roofing! They were prompt, courteous, and right on time. The crew worked so well together, and Jesse gave an honest, no-pressure estimate. Anita in the office was fantastic—super friendly and easy to work with. They even came back for a quality check after the job, which really shows their pride in their work. Highly recommend Elgin Roofing in Aylmer!
Karen Hutcheson
Excellent service and workmanship! They replaced our shingled garage roof with steel and we are extremely pleased with the job done. From start to finish our experience with Elgin roofing has been excellent and we highly recommend their professional and skilled services.
Dave Morash
We are extremely pleased with the work Elgin Roofing did for us. They were always on time and listened to our needs. They were polite, accommodating, and professional. Isack T and his partner did a fantastic job from start to finish. They kept us updated on what was taking place and did a complete and thorough clean up at end of each day. The two of them worked in all the heat we had this fall and completed the job in 2 days! We would strongly recommend this company to handle all your roofing needs.
Ursula Kowalski
I called Elgin Roofing early last spring needing storm and wind damage repairs and to get advice on a new steel roof and gutters. John the sales rep gave great positive advice and an acceptable price for installations. The house is large and very high. Our experience with Elgin Roofing was professional and first class. Their crews came and did what was discussed they know their jobs and the work went smoothly. They cleaned up well when jobs were done. Inspections were made and small concerns were looked after promptly. Our home looks amazing and updated.
Before you hire a roofer in Ontario
No. Roofing is not a compulsory trade in Ontario, so there is no licence to verify - which makes insurance and WSIB coverage the checks that matter.
WSIB clearance certificate
The most important document in this trade. Ask for a current certificate and confirm it names the company doing your work, not a subcontractor you have never met. It should be dated within the last 90 days.
Verify with: WSIB clearance certificates can be validated online by the account number.
Check Elgin Roofing on the official registerGeneral liability insurance
Two million dollars minimum for residential roofing. Request the certificate of insurance directly from the broker rather than a photocopy, and confirm the policy is current.
Manufacturer shingle certification
Optional but meaningful. Manufacturers certify installers, and certification is what unlocks the extended system warranty. Without it you have a material warranty only, which covers far less than most homeowners assume.
Municipal business licence
Some Ontario municipalities require one. Not universal, but easy to ask about.
Questions worth asking
- Can I see a current WSIB clearance certificate and your liability certificate of insurance?
- Is this a full tear-off, or shingling over the existing layer? (Overlays are cheaper and shorten roof life.)
- How much ice and water shield is included, and how far up from the eave?
- Are you certified by the shingle manufacturer, and does this quote include the system warranty or only the material warranty?
- What happens if you find rotten decking? What is the per-sheet price, and will you show me before replacing it?
