How fast can you get here?
If you've got active leaking or storm damage, we respond within 24–48 hours across Winnipeg and the surrounding area. That window matters: in a Winnipeg summer thunderstorm or a January thaw, water does more damage every hour it sits in your attic or walls. We contain the leak, protect your interior, and then do the permanent repair on a schedule that works for you.
Will a repair last, or do I need a full replacement?
Most of the time, a repair is the right answer, and we'll tell you when it isn't. We quote the fix, not a replacement you don't need. That's our repair-first policy.
A repair is smart when the damage is localized: a few missing asphalt shingles, a cracked flashing boot, a vent pipe leak, or a single damaged section after hail. A replacement makes sense when the roof is near the end of its life, shingles are curling and brittle across the whole surface, or the decking is water-damaged over a large area. We'll show you what we see and let you decide. No sales team, no pressure, the person who quotes your roof is the person who repairs it.
What happens during a roof inspection?
We start on the ground, checking the roofline for sagging and the yard for shingle granules. Then we go up top: asphalt shingle condition, flashing around chimneys and valleys, vent boots, and the state of your ice-and-water shield at the eaves. Inside, we check the attic for moisture, insulation, and ventilation issues, a lot of Winnipeg winter leaks are actually condensation or ice dam problems, not roofing failures.
Every inspection includes an adjuster-ready damage report. If you're filing a hail damage or storm claim, you get a document that spells out the damage in language your insurance company understands. That's part of why we're the roof leak repair experts Winnipeg homeowners call first after a storm.
Do you work with insurance claims?
Yes. Winnipeg's May-to-September hail season means we handle insurance-backed storm repairs constantly. We don't inflate estimates to match a claim, and we don't downplay damage to make a quick sale. We document what's actually there, give you the report, and let the adjuster process the claim. If your roof has hail damage on asphalt shingles, we'll tell you honestly whether it's worth filing a claim or paying out of pocket.
Why choose Roof Repair Winnipeg?
We run deliberately lean: no call centre, no account managers, no showroom, no twelve-truck fleet. That low overhead shows up in the price. What you get instead is a small crew of Winnipeg hands who've worked every season this city has to offer, the freeze-thaw cycle that cracks flashing, the ice dams that back water up under shingles, the summer hail that dimples a roof in minutes. We've seen it all, and we fix it properly the first time.
