Why Choose Red Maple for Roof Replacement?
A roof replacement is the biggest exterior job most homeowners will ever pay for, so the details matter. We remove every layer down to the deck, replace soft or rotten sheathing, and rebuild the roof as a system: underlayment, flashing, ventilation and shingles installed to the manufacturer's instructions so the warranty is valid.
Most of the replacements we do in Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam and Vancouver are on homes built in the 1980s to early 2000s whose original shingles are now 20 to 30 years old, plus aging cedar shake roofs that are being converted to architectural asphalt.

Replacing an Old Cedar Roof
If your home still has cedar shakes or cedar shingles, replacement usually means adding a solid plywood deck over the old skip sheathing before installing asphalt. See our cedar shake conversion page for the full process.
Learn moreFixing Ventilation During a Reroof
A new roof is the best time to correct attic ventilation. Poor airflow traps moisture in winter and heat in summer, which shortens shingle life. We check intake and exhaust and correct the balance as part of the job.
Our honest advice
If your roof still has good life left and the problem is in one area, we will tell you. Plenty of our reviews mention us recommending against work that was not needed.
