Maintenance
Like any other precious asset in life, a roof also entails certain sustenance and upkeep in order to function with effectiveness and endurance. From wear and tear to weather damage and critter intrusions, your roof puts up a fair fight each day. Not everyone can get up on a ladder and examine their roof for possible damage. That is where Trudel & Sons Roofing Ltd come in. With over three decades of roof maintenance experience in Richmond Hill and the Greater Toronto Area, we have helped many homeowners extend the life of their roofs.

By signing up for our regularly-scheduled roof maintenance program you can get reduced labour rates, maintenance logs, a 24-hour point of contact and peace of mind in knowing your roofing system is in good hands.

Is the lifespan your roof concerning you? Most laminate shingles last 25 to 35 years, while cedar shakes and shingles usually last 20 to 30 years with the right maintenance. That being said, there are a few external factors that can cause your roof to wear down more quickly:
Here are the four benefits you can expect to reap when you stick to a proper roof maintenance schedule:

Post-Exterior Work Checkups
If you’ve had tradesmen on your roof for an HVAC, siding or painting project, we are available to check for potential damage. Dropped tools and foot traffic can compromise the roof membrane or cause damage to flashings.
Roof Cleaning
High-power pressure washers should be avoided. We use a low-pressure, non-toxic pressure washing system that doesn’t use chlorine or bleach. Prior to the wash, we will inspect the roof and make repairs as necessary. We also provide compulsory follow-up with a complete cleanup.
Moss Removal
As moss holds moisture and prevents proper runoff, it can lead to water damage to your roof, as well as dig in and remove the UV-protecting granules that are a part of many shingle types. Moss removal can boost your curb appeal and property value.
Leaf & Debris Removal
While the concept is familiar to most, leaf and debris removal can help your roof to:
Gutter Cleaning
When your gutters are free of debris, they simply work more effectively and do a better job of draining water away from your structure’s foundation. We recommend having your gutters cleaned twice per year.
Waterproofing
Preventing expensive water damage is what a roofing system is all about. Our waterproofing system helps protect new and existing masonry chimneys, while also reducing water penetration into the masonry by up to 94%.
Chimney Protection
The area above the roof-line where the chimney protrudes through the roofing materials is susceptible to water leaks and roof damage. A multiple layered chimney flashing system will seal the contact between your chimney and roof.
Evaluations
Are you worried about your ageing roof? Think you have a leak in your building envelope? Not sure where to start? You may qualify for a free, no-obligation inspection from our representative.
Ice Removal
Heavy snowfall on roofs equates into excessive roof weight loads and the formation of ice dams that can prevent proper drainage. The outcome can seriously damage roofs, gutters and blocked-down spouts.
