Metro Vancouver
Roofing in Burnaby
Burnaby covers everything from post-war bungalows to hillside homes on Burnaby Mountain and Capitol Hill. The hillside properties catch more wind than people expect, and the wooded areas mean shade, needles, and moss.
What Burnaby roofs deal with
- Wind exposure on the hillside and ridge properties, which lifts shingles at the edges first
- Tree cover dropping needles and debris into valleys and gutters, backing water up under shingles
- A lot of 1950s–70s housing stock now on its second or third roof, where deck condition matters
- Steady winter rain keeping north slopes damp and moss-prone

Questions from Burnaby homeowners
Is the estimate really free?
Yes. The roof inspection and the written estimate cost nothing and there is no obligation to book work. Estimates are valid for 30 days from the date they are issued.
How do I know whether I need a repair or a full replacement?
As a rule of thumb: if the problem is one failed detail — a length of flashing, a cracked vent boot, shingles off after a windstorm — a repair is usually the right answer. If shingles are curling and losing granules across the whole roof, or the deck feels soft underfoot, you are into replacement territory. We will give you a straight recommendation after we have looked at it.
Are you insured?
Yes. SG Peak Roofing Inc. carries general liability insurance and WorkSafe BC coverage. That protects you if something goes wrong on your property, and it is worth asking any roofer you are considering for the same.
Do you work in the rain?
Some work, yes — this is BC, and waiting for a dry month is not realistic. Repairs and inspections often go ahead in light rain. We will not tear off a roof we cannot get safely closed again the same day, so replacement work gets scheduled around the weather and we will reschedule rather than risk opening up your house.
