Toronto Roofing

We recently built and installed a patio deck in a typical downtown Toronto, Cabbagetown backyard.  The deck was made of pressure treated wood with glass side panels and metal posts and railings.  

Last fall, we installed 7 Velux skylights along with our two ply modified bitumen SBS flat roofing system for our client in Cabbagetown, Toronto.  We performed 2 new manual venting curb mounted skylight installations and installed 5 other fixed and electric venting curb mounted skylights into an existing A–frame box to which we made modifications.  Here you see the installation including all necessary skylight carpentry by our Velux Certified Installers employees.

Here we install a floating walkout wood deck on a flat roof in Riverdale, Toronto.  Last fall we installed the flat roof for our client, this spring we built this roof top deck.  This deck is floating with no puncture or penetration of any sort to the roofing membrane as it should be.

         

 

Last week we installed natural slate tiles on a mansard roof in Cabbagetown, Toronto.  However, the slope of the adjoining dormer roof was too low to install slate, so we suggested our client have the dormer roof covered with copper. Here you see our coppersmiths fabricating the panels on site and installing the copper.

       

We recently installed our two ply modified bitumen SBS flat roofing system on a pair of leaking flat roofs in Cabbagetown, Toronto.  The flat roofs were leaking due to improper application of the roofing membranes resulting in both condensation and leakage through the seams.  Watch our roofers cut the membrane and expose a roof that appears to be in good condition yet, contains a significant amount of water underneath and between the membranes.

Our downtown Toronto client's mansard roof was leaking near the valley where the two slopes meet.  Contributing to the leakage was a narrow valley that did not run far enough under the natural slate tiles.  Given the slate tiles on the smaller mansard section were in poor condition we replaced them with new slate tiles cut to match the decorative design and removed and replaced slates on the other section to install a proper width valley.

We recently installed new handsplit medium resawn cedar shakes on a mansard roof in Deer Park, Toronto.  The project also included the installation of our two ply modified flat roofing system and a new skylight.

   

Our Cabbagetown, Toronto clients were experiencing continuous condensation problems with the large 4 x 8' acrylic dome skylight on their flat roof.  To solve this problem M&R Roofing fabricated a custom curb mount "A-shape" frame for their flat roof and mounted two 4 x 4' Velux glass skylights. 

This past week, M&R Roofing's experienced slate masons installed fine Quebec natural slate tiles, which were finished with copper flashings, on the roof of a Heritage Toronto home in Cabbagetown.

Last week M&R Roofing began another flat roof balconies repair project.  It included carpentry work such as the installation of new roof rafters and deck, followed by the installation of our two ply modified flat roofing system with polyiso insulation in the Beaches, Toronto.
