SERVICE DETAIL

SNOW & ICE REMOVAL FOR SHINGLE ROOFS

Quebec’s harsh winters place considerable stress on roofs. Snow and ice build-up on shingle roofs can cause significant damage. Excess snow weighs down the roof structure, while patches of ice can lead to water infiltration and cracked shingles. At Toiture Bardeaux Grand-Montréal, we offer a specialized snow and ice removal service. This service is designed to protect the durability of your roof and contribute to the safety of your building. As your roof is lightened, it is less likely to warp, and its durability is optimized.

Why remove snow and ice from a shingle roof?

Snow accumulation on a shingled roof represents a considerable stress, which can lead to sagging or cracking of the structure. Repeated freezing and thawing cycles create ice dams at the edges of the roof, leading to water infiltration that can cause damage inside your home. What’s more, these build-ups compromise the effectiveness of the shingles’ insulation, increasing your heating costs during the winter. Regular snow and ice removal will keep your roof strong and reduce the impact of extreme weather on your building.

The risks of unprofessional snow removal

Clearing snow from a roof requires specific expertise and the use of appropriate methods to preserve the integrity of the shingles. Using the wrong tools or exerting excessive pressure can cause permanent damage to the roof covering. What’s more, these operations are particularly dangerous during winter, when surfaces are slippery and unstable. At Toiture Bardeaux Grand-Montréal, our highly qualified teams are trained to intervene safely, even in difficult conditions. We use equipment specially designed for roof snow removal, guaranteeing protection of the shingles and minimizing any risk of damage.

Our safe and efficient approach

At Toiture Bardeaux Grand-Montréal, we have carefully developed a snow and ice removal method to protect your roof. We remove snow gradually, distributing the load evenly to reduce pressure on the structure.

This approach ensures long-term preservation of your roof, while saving you unexpected repair costs. This ensures optimum efficiency all winter long.
