Roof Replacement

Typical range is $10–$20 per square foot installed. Most homes fall between $20,000–$40,000 depending on size, pitch, and material. Our instant estimate tool gives you a ballpark in 60 seconds.

Asphalt shingles are petroleum-based — their price floats with crude oil. When oil spikes (or tariffs hit), asphalt quotes can climb 15–25% in a single year. Steel doesn't track oil. It's a commodity in its own right, manufactured domestically by Ideal Roofing, and priced in Canadian dollars. That makes a metal-roof quote more like a contract than a moving target.

40–70 years depending on material. Our Wakefield Bridge steel shingles carry a 50-year transferable warranty. Compare that to 15–20 for asphalt.

In many cases yes. Depends on condition and local codes. Colum assesses this during your consultation.

Yes. We offer financing options to make your forever roof affordable. Ask Colum for details.

Yes. For full replacements, we handle complete tear-off, deck inspection, and disposal. We also do a magnetic nail sweep of your property afterward.

Generally 2–3 times the cost of standard asphalt shingles, depending on roof complexity, material type, and the number of valleys, gables, or complex areas. The exact cost depends on the product you choose and your specific roof — Select Metal Roofing provides detailed quotes for every project.

We give our best price upfront on every quotation. Our pricing reflects quality Canadian-manufactured material from Ideal Roofing, certified installation crews, and proper installation methods including manufacturer-recommended underlayment. We don't inflate quotes to leave room for haggling — what you see is our honest price for the job done right.

A typical residential metal roof takes 2–4 days. Simple roofs may be completed in a single day, while larger or more complex projects (churches, steep pitches, multiple turrets) can take a week or longer. We'll give you a specific timeline during the quoting process.

We want your property to look like we were never there. At the end of every job, crews use leaf blowers to clear debris from decks and walkways, run magnets around the entire property to catch any stray screws or metal pieces, and go through gardens and landscaping for any debris. The site is organized at the end of every day during the project, not just at completion.

Ask for proof of insurance, WSIB coverage for their installers, safety training documentation, and Whmis training records. Also ask where their material is manufactured — some Ontario companies sell product imported from overseas with no valid warranty once it leaves the country of origin. Select Metal Roofing uses Canadian-manufactured Ideal Roofing products with full North American warranty support.

Yes, if it's not the right fit. We won't install a product we can't warrant for your specific roof, we won't skip manufacturer-recommended steps like underlayment to save money, and we won't rush a project to meet an unrealistic timeline. We'd rather be honest upfront than deliver work we're not proud of.

Five principles, no exceptions. One — one price given upfront, with no haggling or inflated quotes baked in for negotiation. Two — every manufacturer-recommended step happens on every install, including synthetic underlayment. Three — realistic timelines that Colum commits to and can hold, never pressuring his crews to cut corners. Four — the right product for your specific roof, even if it means walking away from the job rather than misrepresenting a profile. Five — a clear, candid conversation from day one, because the best installs come from a good fit on both sides. We welcome complexity — churches, barns, steep-pitch turret work — and just refuse to compromise on how it's built.
