Which roofing service do you need?

A stain, missing shingle or blocked drain does not tell the whole story. We look at the roof covering, the details around it and the condition underneath before recommending the next step.

Paragon Coquitlam #1

A Coquitlam project

Thermal Drive.
From cedar to architectural shingles.

This Paragon project on Thermal Drive replaced a cedar shake roof with architectural asphalt shingles. The project record documents new plywood over the original spaced sheathing, followed by the roof covering and ridge ventilation.

The photos show two stages of the same job. The deck preparation matters just as much as the finished surface.

Choose a complete roof system

Roofing materials for Coquitlam properties.

The right choice depends on roof slope, deck condition, detailing, access, appearance and budget. Compare the installed system and maintenance requirements, as well as the finish.

Asphalt shingle roofing

Architectural shingles are an option for suitable pitched roofs. Review the deck, underlayment, valleys, flashings and ventilation together. Localised shingle damage may call for repair; widespread deterioration may justify replacement.

Explore roof replacement

Cedar and cedar conversions

Keep the character of cedar or compare a different roof covering. A conversion needs an assessment of the existing sheathing and the proposed system, as the Thermal Drive project demonstrates.

Read the Coquitlam cedar guide

Metal roofing

Review the panel profile, roof slope, attachment, transitions and ventilation. Details around valleys, chimneys and roof openings should be included in the proposal.

Read the Coquitlam metal guide

Flat and low slope roofing

Torch applied SBS modified bitumen, EPDM, TPO and PVC are distinct systems. Built up roofing is another assembly. They are not interchangeable names or installation methods. The existing roof and proposed assembly determine the appropriate approach.

Discuss commercial and flat roofing

Compare the details

Ask which assembly is being proposed, why it suits the roof, how drainage and penetrations will be handled, and what maintenance it will need. A material name alone is not a scope of work.

Repair and ongoing care

Keep small concerns visible.

Roof maintenance starts with checking the covering and the paths water takes off the building. Leaves and needles can collect around valleys, gutters and drains. Moss and staining should prompt a closer look at the surface and the conditions keeping it damp.

Use a maintenance approach suited to the roof material and its manufacturer’s guidance. Cleaning alone will not resolve damaged flashings, failed seams or deteriorated decking.

What to bring to an assessment

  • When and where a leak appeared, and whether it followed wind or rain.
  • Photos taken safely from indoors or the ground.
  • Previous repairs, inspection notes and the approximate roof installation date, if known.
  • Areas that repeatedly collect debris or hold water.
  • Changes near the roof, such as a new skylight or mechanical equipment.

Across Coquitlam

Plan for the roof.
And the site around it.

Neighbourhood context is useful, but each property needs its own assessment. Access, nearby trees, roof geometry and surrounding buildings can change how work is planned.

Burke Mountain

Check sloping access, equipment placement and how exposed roof edges and nearby trees affect the work plan.

Burke Mountain guide

Westwood Plateau

Review complex roof planes, valleys, skylights and chimneys, along with access that protects established landscaping.

Westwood Plateau guide

Ranch Park and Eagle Ridge

Look at previous repairs, original deck construction and the details involved when changing roof materials.

Ranch Park and Eagle Ridge guide

Maillardville and Austin Heights

Consider neighbouring properties, staging space and the existing building’s character when defining the replacement scope.

Maillardville and Austin Heights guide

We also discuss roofing needs around Coquitlam Centre and Town Centre. Give us the property location so we can plan access and assess the actual roof.

Build a useful proposal

What changes the scope of a roofing job?

A citywide price cannot describe your roof. The proposal should connect what is found on the property with the work included, the assumptions and any decisions still needed.

Swipe the table to compare the scope factors.

Questions to settle before work begins
Scope factor What to clarify Why it matters
Roof geometry and access Pitch, height, valleys, staging space and material handling. Affects labour, equipment and site protection.
Removal and decking Existing layers, known damage and the process for concealed issues. Defines preparation and how additional work is approved.
Water and ventilation details Flashings, penetrations, drains, gutters, attic intake and exhaust. Connects the covering to the rest of the roof system.
Occupants and approvals Work areas, access, communication and any required property or municipal approvals. Helps coordinate the job with the people using the building.
Materials and documentation Named products, installation requirements and applicable warranty terms. Makes proposals easier to compare on the same basis.

Ask for these items in writing

  • Included work and exclusions
  • Decking allowances and change approval
  • Proposed products and assemblies
  • Site protection and debris removal
  • Scheduling assumptions and communication
  • Completion review and warranty documents

Before you decide

Coquitlam roofing questions.

Useful starting points for a repair, replacement or maintenance conversation.

Should I repair or replace my Coquitlam roof?

An isolated defect may be repairable when the surrounding roof is in suitable condition. Recurring leaks, widespread deterioration or problems beneath the covering may support a replacement. An assessment should identify the cause and explain the options before you choose.

Do you work on asphalt shingle roofs?

Yes. We assess, repair and replace asphalt shingle roofs in Coquitlam. The scope should cover the shingles and relevant details such as the deck, underlayment, flashings and ventilation.

Can a cedar roof be converted to asphalt shingles?

A cedar roof can be considered for conversion after the roof structure, deck and proposed system are assessed. Spaced sheathing may need a suitable continuous deck. Our Thermal Drive project documents a cedar conversion with new plywood and architectural shingles.

Are torch applied roofing and EPDM the same?

No. Torch applied SBS modified bitumen and EPDM are different roofing systems. TPO and PVC are also distinct single ply membranes. The specification and installation method must match the selected assembly.

Do you handle strata and commercial roofing in Coquitlam?

Yes. We discuss repairs, maintenance and replacement for strata and commercial properties. The assessment should address the roof system, access, resident or business coordination, approvals and the scope of work.

Does moss mean the whole roof needs replacement?

Moss alone does not establish whether replacement is necessary. The covering, drainage, flashings and condition beneath the surface need to be assessed. Any cleaning or treatment should be appropriate for the material and its manufacturer’s guidance.

How much will my roofing project cost?

The price depends on the roof size and geometry, access, removal, decking condition, materials and details included. Ask for a property specific written proposal with clear allowances, exclusions and a process for approving changes.

What should I send with a roofing enquiry?

Share your Coquitlam property location, the type of building, the concern you are seeing and any previous repair or inspection information. Photos taken safely from the ground or indoors can help the initial conversation.
