Expert Roofing Services in Brantford

Living in Brantford means facing a unique set of weather challenges—from the harsh cold snaps and heavy snowfalls of winter to the hot, humid summers and occasional severe storms. That’s why choosing the right roofing system is crucial to protect your home year-round. As Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractors and GAF Certified Contractors, we specialize in providing roofing solutions built to withstand Brantford’s climate extremes. Our expert teams install only the highest quality Owens Corning roofing systems, including durable asphalt and architectural shingles designed for superior weather resistance and long-lasting curb appeal.

With years of experience serving homeowners in neighborhoods like Lynden Park, Coronation Park, and Glenhyrst, we understand the local climate’s impact on roofs.

Our crews use industry-leading techniques to ensure your roof is sealed tight, preventing ice dams and water infiltration. Plus, our architectural shingles come with enhanced impact resistance, a must-have for handling Brantford’s hail and wind storms.

How We Protect Brantford Roofs from Ontario's Extreme Weather

From lake-effect snow to summer heat waves, Brantford roofs face unique challenges. Here's how we engineer protection.

3D Attic Ventilation System with Airflow

Balanced attic ventilation prevents ice dams, extends roof life, and reduces energy costs

Ice Dam Prevention

The Challenge:

Heavy snow + freeze-thaw cycles create ice dams that force water under shingles

Our Solution:

Extended ice & water shield + balanced ventilation keeps attic cold and prevents melt/refreeze

High Wind Protection

The Challenge:

Lake winds and storms can reach 80+ km/h, lifting shingles and exposing deck

Our Solution:

6-nail fastening pattern + Class F wind-rated shingles (130 MPH) + starter course

Extreme Temperature Swings

The Challenge:

-30°C winters to +35°C summers cause expansion/contraction stress

Our Solution:

Flexible synthetic underlayment + proper fastener spacing allows seasonal movement

Moisture & Humidity

The Challenge:

Lake-effect moisture and humid summers promote algae, moss, and rot

Our Solution:

Algae-resistant shingles + ventilation + deck moisture barriers prevent growth

Ironclad Warranties
