One roof for every Fredericton season
Fredericton asks more of a roof than most Maritime cities. Winter piles snow on it, spring swings it between thaw and freeze, and summer brings damp air off the Saint John River. A metal roof planned for that full cycle, not just for January, can serve a home for decades. This service introduces you to local professionals who plan roofs that way.

Six jobs, each one a different answer
A roof rarely fails all at once. One home needs a leak traced to a flashing, another needs a tired shingle roof taken off and replaced, a third just needs its snow managed before it slides onto the walkway. The six services below cover that range, and a local professional will say plainly which one fits your roof, even if the honest answer is the smallest job on the list.
Metal Roof Installation
A new metal roof measured to your home's pitch, snow load, airflow and drainage, rather than fitted from a standard template.
Metal Roof Replacement
Taking a worn roof off and building its replacement in sequence, so underlayment, flashing and panels each land where they belong.
Standing Seam Metal Roofing
Raised seams and hidden fasteners for a quiet, watertight surface that sheds snow and suits both heritage streets and new builds.
Metal Roof Repair
Tracking a leak or a loose panel back to its cause, then fixing that cause instead of covering the symptom.
Metal Roof Restoration
Cleaning, treating and recoating a metal roof that is still sound, buying it years of extra life without a tear-off.
Snow Guard Installation
Guards and bars placed to hold snow on the roof until it melts, keeping entries, decks and driveways clear below.
Winter is only the first test
Ask a Fredericton homeowner when their roof last caused trouble and the answer is rarely a single storm. More often it is a slow chain: snow settles deep in January, a mild week in March melts it from below, the water refreezes at the eaves, and by April a stain shows up on a bedroom ceiling. Roofs here do not just carry weight. They live through repeated freezing and thawing, and every seam and flashing gets exercised by it.
That cycle is where metal earns its place. A smooth metal surface lets snow leave the roof instead of sitting and soaking, and a properly ventilated assembly gives meltwater a path out instead of a place to pool. The work still stands or falls on detailing: where the ice and water membrane stops, how valleys are folded, whether the attic can breathe. Panels alone do not make a good roof. The decisions underneath them do. Summer brings a quieter test. Damp air rises off the Saint John River and settles over the city on warm evenings, and a roof that traps moisture in its assembly will age from the inside out. Ventilation and underlayment choices made during installation decide whether that humidity escapes or lingers, which is why a written scope that names those details matters more than a brochure about panel colour.

From your first message to a finished roof
Describe the roof
Tell us what you are seeing: a leak, a stain, a roof at the end of its life, or snow coming off in sheets. Photos and the roof's rough age help, but a plain description is enough to start.
Get the scope in writing
A local professional visits, looks at the roof in person and puts the work, the materials and the timing in a written quote. Exact pricing depends on the full scope of work, including roof size, pitch and condition.
Follow the job as it goes
Work is booked around Fredericton weather when possible, the site is kept orderly, and you hear about progress as each stage is finished.
Sign off together
At the end you walk the roofline with the professional, checking flashings, panels and fasteners. The job is finished when you are satisfied with what you see, not when the last tool is packed away.
