Services
5 & 6 Gutters
We manufacture and install high-quality seamless aluminum gutter systems in 5 and 6-inch sizes. Our precision-engineered solutions prevent water damage while maintaining aesthetic appeal. With proper installation and our 20-year product guarantee, these systems provide long-term protection against Atlantic Canada's harsh weather conditions.
Roofing
Our roofing services include asphalt and steel roof installations with comprehensive ventilation systems. We offer 25-40 year shingle warranties and 10-year labor warranties. Proper ventilation prevents mold growth while reducing energy costs through improved temperature regulation in residential and commercial buildings.
Spray Foam Insulation
We apply closed-cell spray foam insulation that creates an air-tight moisture barrier. This GREENGUARD Gold-certified solution improves energy efficiency while resisting mold and adding structural strength. Ideal for new builds and existing structures, it reduces carbon footprint and heating costs in cold climates.
Blown-In Insulation
Our blown-in fiberglass insulation fills gaps and voids without major renovations. This fire-retardant material maintains thermal performance over time while reducing energy consumption. Made with recycled content, it provides noise reduction and improved temperature control for residential and commercial properties.
Siding
We install durable vinyl siding that enhances curb appeal while providing weather protection. Available in multiple profiles and colors, our solutions include low-maintenance options that resist fading and damage. Vinyl shakes offer wood-like aesthetics without painting or scraping requirements for homes and businesses.
