Choosing a Roofer — Winnipeg, MB
Hire a contractor you can verify.
Amiri Roofing — Winnipeg
Winnipeg has no shortage of roofing contractors — and after every hailstorm, out-of-town crews knock on doors offering deals that evaporate with the next storm. Choosing well matters more than choosing fast: your roof is a 20-year decision, and the warranty is only as good as the company still answering its phone in five years. Here's how we'd evaluate any roofer — including us.
Questions to ask before signing anything
A trustworthy contractor answers every one of these without hesitating:
- Will you physically get on the roof and into the attic before quoting?
- Can I see photos of what you find — and of every layer during the job?
- Is the quote itemized in writing, with materials and labour separated?
- Who is actually on my roof — your crew or subcontractors?
- Are you insured, and can you show a current certificate?
- What workmanship warranty do you provide, in writing?
Red flags Winnipeg homeowners should watch for
Storm-chasing crews follow every major hail event into the city. Protect yourself:
- Quotes given from the driveway or a satellite image, no inspection
- Pressure to sign today because a 'storm discount' expires
- Large deposits demanded up front before materials arrive
- No local address, or a phone number that routes out of province
- Refusal to provide a written, itemized contract
