What roof repairs actually cost in Winnipeg
Real callout and hourly rates, plus the four things that actually move a repair quote up or down.
Transparent pricing
Priced by the callout or the hour — no mystery math
Most repair work fits one of three rate types below. If a job turns out to be bigger than a repair, we say so before doing anything, and can refer you to a full-reroof specialist instead.
| Service | Included | Rate |
|---|---|---|
| Standard repair calloutDiagnosis included, most jobs done same visit. | Diagnosed and quoted on the roof, Most repairs completed same visit, Photo report included | $245per visit, most repairs |
| Ice dam & winter responseSteamed and mechanically cleared, no chipping. | Low-pressure steam, shingle-safe, Heat-loss source checked, Winter on-call availability | $320per visit, steam removal |
| Hourly workDeck, fascia and small carpentry-adjacent repairs. | Two-hour minimum, billed by the quarter-hour after, Honest word if scope exceeds a repair, Matched materials where reasonable | $95per hour, 2-hour minimum |
Same-day priority booking

Extra ridge or soffit vent
+$85/unit
Attic insulation top-up (spot area)
+$4.50/sq ft
Callout rates include travel within the city and the first diagnosis. If parts or extra time are needed beyond the standard visit, we quote it on the roof before proceeding — never after the invoice arrives.
What moves the price
Every quote is built from these four things, assessed on the roof before we start.
What kind of repair
A shingle patch, an ice dam and an hourly carpentry job are priced differently because the work itself is different.
How fast you need it
Standard 24–48 hour response costs less than same-day priority booking.
Season
Winter ice-dam calls involve steam equipment and on-call scheduling that summer repairs do not.
Access and pitch
A steep or hard-to-reach roof adds setup time regardless of how small the actual repair is.
Add-ons, priced up front
Bolt any of these onto a repair visit. Ask when you book and they appear on the invoice — never as a surprise after.
Same-day priority booking
Ahead of the standard 24–48 hour queue, non-emergency.
+$60
Extra ridge or soffit vent
Added during a ventilation check if airflow is genuinely short.
+$85/unit
Attic insulation top-up (spot area)
Where heat-loss checks find a thin patch driving an ice dam.
+$4.50/sq ft
Gutter clear-out during a repair visit
Bundled in while we are already on the roof.
+$65
Written photo report for a home sale
Formatted for a real estate transaction or landlord request.
+$45
Second ice-dam visit, same winter
Discounted repeat rate if the same dam reforms within the season.
$260
Included on every rate type
These are not upsells. They are the baseline on every callout, every hourly job, every time.
- Diagnosis and a quote before any repair work starts
- A flat callout rate — no hidden trip or fuel charge
- Photos of the problem and the fix, sent the same day
- Honest word if a repair is a patch versus a sign you need a reroof
- No minimum job size — one shingle gets the same attention as ten
- Winter on-call response for active leaks and ice dams
The honest-scope promise
If what looks like a repair is actually a sign you need a reroof, we tell you before doing anything — and refer you to a reroofing specialist rather than patch something that needs real replacement. If our own repair fails within 12 months for the same cause, we return and fix it at no charge.
FAQ
Questions we get asked
Still unsure? Call (204) 555-0155 and a real person in Winnipeg picks up.
Is the callout fee separate from the repair cost?
No — the callout rate includes the diagnosis and most standard repairs. If parts or significant extra time are needed, we quote that separately before starting.
Do you charge more for same-day service?
A $60 priority fee for non-emergency same-day booking. Active leaks and ice dams get prioritized without an extra charge.
How do I pay?
E-transfer or credit card at the end of the visit. GST is shown as a separate line on every invoice.
Is there a discount if the same problem comes back?
Yes — a discounted repeat rate applies if the same issue recurs within a reasonable window, since that usually points to something we should have caught the first time.
Water where it should not be?
Call now if it is active — we prioritize interior leaks and ice-dam backups over routine repairs.
