One of the most common questions we receive is about project timelines. Here's what to expect.
Typical Timeframes
- Small home (under 1,500 sq ft): 1-2 days
- Average home (1,500-2,500 sq ft): 2-3 days
- Large home (over 2,500 sq ft): 3-5 days
- Complex roof: 4-7 days
Factors That Affect Timeline
Weather
Vancouver's unpredictable weather can cause delays. We won't install roofing in the rain to ensure quality.
Roof Complexity
Multiple levels, steep pitches, and many penetrations (chimneys, vents, skylights) take longer.
Deck Condition
If we discover rot or damage when removing old shingles, repairs add time.
Accessibility
Easy access to your roof speeds up the project.
Our Process
- Day 1: Tear off old roofing, inspect deck
- Day 2: Install underlayment and start shingles
- Day 3: Complete shingles, install flashing
- Final: Cleanup and inspection
Minimizing Disruption
We work efficiently and always clean up at the end of each day. Most homeowners are able to stay in their homes during the project.
