Roof leak repair in St. Boniface typically runs $200–$1,200 depending on the source of the leak, the roofing material, and how much flashing or decking needs to be replaced, and the crew from Roof Repair Winnipeg will find the actual source, fix it, and tell you honestly whether a repair or a full replacement makes more sense for your home.
What Roof Leak Repair in St. Boniface Includes
A roof leak repair isn't just patching the ceiling. The visible water stain is the last stop; the real problem is usually higher up. what a proper repair covers:
- Full leak investigation, we trace the water path from the stain back to the entry point, checking shingles, flashing, vent boots, valleys, and the chimney cricket. On St. Boniface roofs, we start with flashing because that's where wind fatigue shows up first.
- Shingle repair or replacement, if asphalt shingles are cracked, lifted, or missing, we replace them and match the existing colour as closely as possible. We also check for granule loss, a sign the shingles are aging faster than their rated lifespan.
- Flashing repair, the metal around chimneys, skylights, and wall intersections is the most common leak source on St. Boniface roofs. We re-seal or replace it as needed, and we re-set the fasteners properly so the wind doesn't work them loose again.
- Vent boot replacement, cracked rubber boots around plumbing vents are a classic slow leak that rots decking before you ever see a stain. We replace the boot and re-flash the base.
- Decking and underlayment repair, if water has reached the plywood, we replace the damaged section and install new underlayment before reshingling. We also check the surrounding decking for rot that hasn't shown itself yet.
- Ceiling and interior damage assessment, we tell you what's damaged inside and what needs a drywall contractor, so you're not left guessing. We don't do interior work, but we'll tell you exactly what to expect.
Every repair comes with a written scope of work and a clear explanation of what was found and what was done. No vague "repaired leak" line items.
St. Boniface Roofing Conditions You Should Know About
St. Boniface isn't the same as River Heights or Charleswood for roofing. Two things matter here specifically.
Wind off the Red River. The river lots along the Red sit exposed to prevailing winds, and that constant push against your roof line does two things. It lifts asphalt shingle tabs over time, especially on the west-facing slopes, and it fatigues flashing seams faster than anywhere else in Winnipeg. A roof that's 10 years old in Transcona can look 15 in St. Boniface if the flashing wasn't installed with the wind in mind. That's why we check flashing first on every St. Boniface leak call, even before we look at the shingles. The fix isn't just re-sealing the seam, it's re-seating the metal so the wind can't get under it again.
Historic rooflines in Old St. Boniface. The older Franco-Manitoban homes near the St. Boniface Cathedral and along Provencher Boulevard keep steep, steep rooflines, some at 10/12 pitch or higher. That's beautiful, but it's also slower and more careful work. A crew that rushes a steep roof cuts corners on safety, and corners on a steep roof become leaks. We set up proper anchor points, work in pairs, and take the time a steep pitch demands. If your home is on a heritage-adjacent street, we also keep the repair visually consistent so you're not left with a patch that screams from the sidewalk.
Freeze-thaw and ice dams. St. Boniface gets the same freeze-thaw cycle as the rest of Winnipeg, but the older attic insulation in some of the historic homes means more heat loss through the roof deck. That melts snow from below, and the meltwater refreezes at the colder eaves, that's an ice dam. Ice dams back water up under the shingles and into your home. We respond to ice dam calls with snow removal, de-icing, and, when the damage is already done, leak repair. We also check your attic ventilation as part of the fix, because that's what prevents the next dam.
Hail season. St. Boniface sits squarely in Winnipeg's May-to-September hail corridor. Hail doesn't just dent shingles, it cracks the fiberglass mat, knocks granules loose, and bruises the asphalt so the shingle ages in months instead of years. If you've had hail in the last year and your roof is over 10 years old, it's worth a free inspection. We document everything for your insurance claim, so you're not fighting your adjuster with your own blurry phone photos.

How the Repair Process Works
Call or book online
You talk to the person who'll actually do the work. No call centre, no sales team, no "we'll have an account manager reach out."
Inspection
We get on your roof, trace the leak to its source, and take photos. For emergency calls, we're out within 24–48 hours to contain the damage, tarping, temporary sealing, or a quick fix to stop the water before it rots your decking or soaks your insulation
Written quote
You get a written scope with the actual repair we recommend, not a replacement pitch. If a repair is smarter than a new roof, we say so. If your roof is at end of life, we say that too, and we show you why with photos
Repair
We do the work, clean up, and walk you through what was fixed. You're dealing with the same person from start to finish. No hand-offs, no "the other guy said he'd handle it."
Follow-up
We check in after the next heavy rain or thaw to confirm the leak is gone. That's standard, not a upsell
