If your Lorette roof is leaking, the repair will typically cost $200–$1,200 for a single-source leak, flashing around a chimney or vent pipe, a damaged vent boot, or a small patch of worn asphalt shingles, though the final cost varies a lot depending on job size, scope, and site conditions, so treat that range as a starting point, not a firm quote. Roof Repair Winnipeg is a small local crew that serves Lorette and the surrounding area year-round, and we find the actual source of the leak instead of patching your ceiling and billing your insurance.
What a Roof Leak Repair in Lorette Includes
A proper roof leak repair starts with finding the actual entry point, not the stain on your ceiling. what's included in every leak repair we do in Lorette:
Source identification. We trace the leak from the interior stain to the exterior entry point. In Lorette, that often means checking the flashing around chimneys, vent pipes, and the valleys where two roof planes meet. Water travels, the stain on your ceiling can be two or three feet from the actual hole in the roof.
Flashing inspection and repair. Flashing is the metal that seals transitions, where the roof meets a wall, a chimney, or a skylight. In Lorette's freeze-thaw cycle, flashing expands and contracts constantly, and the fasteners work loose over time. A loose piece of flashing is the most common leak source we find in this area.
Shingle replacement. If the leak is from damaged or missing asphalt shingles, we replace the affected shingles and re-seal the area with roofing cement. We match the shingle colour and style as closely as possible.
Ice dam response. In winter, ice dams push water up under the shingles and into the attic. We remove the dam, de-ice the area, and address the ventilation issue that caused it, otherwise, it'll come back next winter.
Interior damage assessment. We'll tell you what the water did to your ceiling and insulation so you can handle it with your insurance or a local drywall contractor. We don't do interior drywall work, but we'll give you a clear picture of the damage.

How the Repair Process Works
Call or book online
You talk to the person who will do the work. No call centre, no account manager, no sales team
Inspection (free–$250)
We climb the roof, check the attic, and find the source of the leak. For storm damage, we provide an adjuster-ready damage report with photos you can submit directly to your insurance company
Written quote
You get a written quote for the repair, not a replacement pitch. If a repair can't fix the roof, we'll tell you why and give you the numbers for both options
Repair
We do the work, clean up, and walk the roof with you afterward so you can see what was done
In storm season (May–September), we respond within 24–48 hours so your leak is contained before the water does real damage to your trusses, insulation, or drywall.
Why Lorette Roofs Fail Differently
Lorette isn't Winnipeg proper. The town sits along the Seine River, and the properties in the Lorette town core and along Lorette Road are more exposed than city roofs. what that means in practice:
Open prairie wind and sun. Rural roofs in Lorette have no neighbouring houses or mature trees to block the wind. That constant exposure oxidizes asphalt shingles faster, the granules wear off, the shingles get brittle, and they start cracking at the edges. A roof that would last 20 years in a sheltered Winnipeg neighbourhood might need attention at 15 in Lorette.
Farm-adjacent dust. Properties near working farms get a fine layer of dust on the roof. That dust acts like sandpaper in the wind, accelerating granule loss on steep machine-shed-adjacent roofs. More granules in the gutter means less protection on the shingle itself.
Freeze-thaw cycles. Lorette gets the same brutal Winnipeg winters, but the rural exposure means more wind-driven snow and more ice dam formation at the eaves. When ice dams form, water backs up under the shingles and finds the flashing, and that's the leak you see on your ceiling in February.
Hail. The May-to-September hail season hits Lorette directly. Hail damage isn't always obvious from the ground, bruising on asphalt shingles doesn't show until the granules start shedding. A free inspection after a storm will tell you whether you have a claim.
