Roof Replacement in Barrie, Newmarket & Central Ontario

Roof replacement done right the first time

For most homeowners, roof replacement is not a decision to be taken lightly. It involves a significant capital investment, and not every situation warrants complete replacement. The question here is: can the existing roof withstand the elements and do its job well, or is the ongoing repair work merely postponing a bigger issue?

Let our experts find out the right answer for you.

Since 1992, T. Simpson Roofing has been replacing roofs all over Barrie, Newmarket, and throughout Central Ontario. A Master Elite™ Contractor, only 2% of roofing contractors in North America are this prestigious, and we have a wealth of experience in every aspect of the roof replacement process – from deciding if it is needed or not, to installing the last shingle.

We want to provide you with a roof that is well designed and professionally installed to boost the protection your property receives.

How to determine if it's time for a roof replacement?

A few damaged shingles don’t necessarily mean it is time for a new roof. When problems are common or continue to be a recurring issue, however, replacement might make more practical sense than individual repairs.

Your roof is approaching the end of its useful life

The typical lifespan for most asphalt shingle roofs is 20-30 years. Age alone may not indicate replacement, but signs of wear and tear on the roof deserve to be evaluated.

Damage is becoming common

Sometimes it is possible to repair just a few damaged shingles. But if you notice widespread cracks, curling, missing shingles, or damaged roofing materials, chances are your roof is nearing the end of its life.

Leaks keep returning

If the leak is recurring, it suggests that the leak is larger than the one area that is damaged. If the sections are still in need of attention, replacing the roof may be a more reliable long-term solution.

You are finding excessive granules

While it is normal to lose some granules with age, large quantities of granules accumulating in your eavestroughs mean that the granules’ protective surface is wearing out.

Structural warning signs

Sagging areas, soft spots, or daylight visible through the roof deck or attic should not be overlooked. These can indicate issues under the exterior surface of the roof and should be inspected by a professional.

Our roof replacement process

A roof replacement is a significant job, best left to the professionals. The preparation, installation, ventilation, flashing, and cleanup processes all play a part in the end result. That is why we follow a structured process.

1.

Rigorous inspection

We visit the property to inspect your roof. We take a close look at the shingles, underlay, flashing, vents, and eavestroughs. This gives clarity on the scope of work needed. With these findings, we provide a practical recommendation.

2.

Clear and detailed quote

A quotation will be provided that includes a list of the materials, scope of work, anticipated timeframe, and cost. Being aware of the work scope from the start reduces uncertainty down the line in the project.

3.

Choosing roofing materials

There is no single roofing product that is suitable for every house. We will help you explore the variety of shingle and material choices for your home's look, budget, and the climate of the central part of Ontario.

4.

Complete removal of old roof

We don’t put a new roof over your existing roofing system; we tear it off. This enables the underlying surface to be evaluated and provides a clean slate for the new roofing system.

5.

Examining the deck and underlay

When we pull off old roof layers, we may find issues below. Before we put on the new roof, we look for rot, weak boards, and soft areas. If found, we make sure to fix them first.

6.

Professional installation

Our crew has the training and credentials to set the new roof in line with the manufacturer’s instructions. A proper setup helps the roof work the way it should. It also helps keep the product warranty valid when a warranty applies.

7.

Tidying up the site

Roof work leaves behind lots of scrap or debris. We clean the area, so loose shingles, nails, and other bits are removed. We want your property to look neat when the job is done.

8.

Final walkthrough

Once the project is finished, we meet with you to discuss the work and clear up any questions you may have, as well as verify that the work has been completed as expected.

Roof Replacement FAQs

How long does roof replacement take?

The process usually takes 1 to 2 days based on roof size, roof complexity, materials, weather conditions, and any problems identified during the replacement.

Is it necessary for me to be home during replacement?

No need to stay home when replacing. But we request that someone be there at the start to answer questions and do a final walkthrough.

What's the difference between a repair and a replacement?

A repair is used to repair a specific area of damage, and a replacement involves removing the existing roof system and installing a new one. We will inspect your roof and suggest the most suitable roofing solution for your roof.

Does a new roof have an impact on a home's value?

When it comes time to sell, a new roof can enhance the overall condition of the home and help put prospective buyers' minds at ease, and can also add to the curb appeal.

Are you responsible for cleaning up after the replacement is complete?

Yes. Cleanup is an integral component of the replacement. This includes removing old roofing materials, collecting debris, and doing a magnetic sweep to increase the chances of nails being removed.

Will you assist with a roof replacement insurance claim?

Yes. We are willing to assist in documenting damage and communicating with your insurance company to assist in the claims process for storm/water damage situations.
