Our FAQ

The cost of a metal roof depends on several key factors that vary from project to project. Your roof's surface area is the main element, but other aspects also influence the price, including architectural complexity, pitch, site accessibility, and the type of metal shingles chosen.

Our quotes include materials, specialized labour, and our lifetime warranty on products. Unlike an asphalt roof that requires replacement every 15 to 20 years, your investment in a metal roof protects you for 50+ years, allowing you to save in the long term.

The best way to get an accurate estimate tailored to your project is a free assessment by our experts.

A quality metal roof installed by professionals lasts between 50 and 70 years, sometimes even longer. That's two to three times longer than a traditional asphalt shingle roof that needs to be replaced after 15 to 20 years.

Metal doesn't rot, fade, develop mould, or crack from freeze-thaw cycles. The Quadra-Loc technology of Vicwest's True Nature shingles locks each shingle on all sides, preventing water infiltration and deformation caused by strong winds.

To maximize your metal roof's lifespan, our team offers maintenance and inspection services to ensure your roof stays in perfect condition year after year.

Absolutely. Metal roofing is actually the best choice for facing Quebec's harsh winters. Metal shingles resist extreme temperatures, heavy snow accumulations, repeated freeze-thaw cycles, and strong winds.

Metal has a smooth surface that facilitates the natural sliding of snow, reducing dangerous accumulations and the risks of ice dams. Quadra-Loc technology creates a perfect seal that prevents freezing rain and melted snow from seeping under the shingles.

Unlike asphalt shingles that become brittle in cold weather, metal maintains its flexibility and strength regardless of temperature. Our 17 years of experience in the region have allowed us to perfect our installation techniques to guarantee optimal protection.

No, a metal roof properly installed by professionals doesn't generate more noise than an asphalt shingle roof during rain or hail. Modern home insulation, combined with installation according to the strictest standards, effectively absorbs exterior sounds.

The solid support on which we attach the metal shingles creates a natural acoustic barrier, and your attic insulation plays a major role in sound absorption. Our installation technique makes all the difference: appropriate fasteners and perfect alignment eliminate vibrations that could amplify noise.

Metal roofing surpasses asphalt on all important aspects:

• Durability: 50 to 70 years compared to 15-20 years for asphalt
• Energy efficiency: True Nature metal shingles reflect sunlight, reducing your air conditioning costs
• Superior protection: Resists extreme weather, fire, insects, mould, and rot
• Ecology: Made from 100% recycled materials
• Resale value: Increases your property value thanks to its longevity and aesthetic appeal

We recommend an annual inspection and light cleaning every two to three years to keep your roof in perfect condition for decades.

• Annual inspection: A visual check each spring detects accumulated debris or any potential damage.
• Occasional cleaning: Every two to three years to eliminate leaves and debris in the valleys.
• Seasonal maintenance: Our snow removal and de-icing services are available during exceptional accumulations.
• Rust treatment: A preventive treatment can be applied as needed to further extend your roof's lifespan.
