Replacing a roof or installing one on a new build is a considerable investment, and a key part of your home’s protection. It also has a considerable effect on your home’s appearance. Quinn Exteriors installers are experienced in both shingle roofing and steel roofing, using top quality materials from IKO and GAF and Ideal Americana and Vicwest, among others.
Steel roofing is becoming increasingly popular due to its longevity and looks, and Quinn Exteriors offers regular steel roofing as well as Standing Seam and Metal Shingles in a variety of styles and colours. It is more expensive than shingles but rewards the homeowner with its pristine appearance and maintenance free longevity. We can also install ice blockers to protect your eavestroughs and prevent falling snow and ice in North Bay’s harsh winters.
Quinn Installation process
For residential dwellings, we recommend against installing steel over existing shingles. Our method involves removing all existing roofing materials, installing a complete premium high temperature ice and water coverage across the roof surface, then installing the steel.
Essentially, with our method the steel is protecting the ice and water, which is the final defence against water infiltration. The ice and water seals itself around the threads of every screw holding the steel. Steel allows for a lot of condensation and frost to form that doesn't occur with a shingle roof, and so if steel is installed onto horizontal strapping over existing shingles, this will lead to a gradual deterioration of the strapping over time, as well as eventual water infiltration as the water and ice work at the holes around the nails or screws holding the strapping.
Quinn Exteriors’ insured and experienced teams pride themselves on a clean and safe workplace and keeping the Company’s values of Safety, Quality and Homeowner Experience top of mind while installing your roof and during the clean-up. Nails and screws are removed with a magnetic tool after completion of the work.
Quinn Exteriors does not do flat roofing but we can direct you to companies in North Bay who do.
