Most recent review: 2 years ago. _Respectful and tidy in your home (3 reviewers describe them being respectful of the home and leaving it clean):_ "every night everything was left tidy and despite a few rainy days they completed the job on time." ยท HomeStars, Dec 19, 2024 ## What customers consistently praise _Themes mentioned across this contractor's own public reviews:_ - Fast & efficient (mentioned in 40% of reviews we've read) - Friendly & polite (mentioned in 40% of reviews we've read) - Professional (mentioned in 40% of reviews we've read) ## In customers' own words _Verbatim quotes from this contractor's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_ > "Very good experience beginning with Vitaliy who came to see the house and garage and clearly explained the steps and extra care they take in doing cedar roofs (type of shingle, underlayment, cedar breather, copper flashing, hand nailing technique, zinc strips on north facing part to reduce moss etc.). The proposal was provided shortly thereafter by Pavel and Eleanor, very detailed and thorough and the price was very competitive with other quotes I had received, but much better detail and assurances of quality. The crew who came to do the job was very hard-working and courteous, every night everything was left tidy and despite a few rainy days they completed the job on time. Overall the experience was above my expectations as I have been disappointed in the last few years with other contractors and trades. This company is professional and I would highly recommend them if you are looking at replacing a cedar roof or other type of roof." > Source: Anonymous (5.0, via HomeStars) > "This firm certainly knows all about cedar roofing. Royal York's crew arrived when they said they would and worked everyday until the job was finished, no interuptions. Every night they tidied up and went over the driveway with a magnet to collect up any nails Crew were pleasant, friendly and efficient. The office staff were helpful and responsive. It was a pleasure dealing with all of them. I would recommend Royal York Roofing." > Source: Anonymous (5.0, via HomeStars) > "Roof was replaced 12 years ago by Royal York. Noticed a missing vent now, and they responded very promptly and fixed it free of charge (outside of the 10 yer warranty)." > Source: Anonymous (5.0, via HomeStars) ## Trades Roofer, Guttering specialist ## See their work _Portfolio and gallery links this business publishes.

That is the classic roofing scam. - Get a written quote that itemizes access (scaffolding or a tower), the exact materials, and the workmanship guarantee, not a vague day rate. - Be wary of demands for a large cash deposit; agree staged payments against work you can actually see completed. - Trade licensing in Canada is set by each province or territory. Electrical, gas and plumbing are licensed trades almost everywhere (for example ESA for electrical and TSSA for gas in Ontario), so check your provincial regulator that the contractor is certified for the work before you hire. - A construction lien is a real risk: in every province an unpaid subcontractor or supplier can register a lien against your home even if you already paid the main contractor. Hold back the statutory amount (commonly around 10%) and get signed lien waivers as you pay. ## Contact - Phone: (416) 760-7663 - Website: https://www.royalyorkroofing.ca --- Source: MyTrustedTraders, https://ca.mytrustedtraders.com/traders/royal-york-roofing-ltd Real public evidence only: every figure traces to its named source.
