Asphalt Shingle Roofing: What to Know Before You Hire
Asphalt shingle roofing remains the standard choice for GTA homes because it balances cost, durability, and appearance better than most alternatives — a properly installed asphalt shingle roof handles Ontario's freeze-thaw cycles and wind loads for 20-25 years without drama.
The install details that actually matter are underlayment, proper nailing pattern, and ice-and-water shield along the eaves — the last one specifically required in the climate to stop ice damming from forcing water back up under shingles in winter.
What This Work Typically Includes
- Ice-and-water shield along all eaves
- Manufacturer-spec nailing pattern for wind rating
- Synthetic underlayment for full roof protection
- Ridge and valley detail work
