Roofing in Burnaby, What We See

Burnaby is really two roofing worlds in one city. Up on Capitol Hill, Burnaby Heights and Willingdon Heights you have the older character homes, many of them with concrete tile and hidden built-in gutters, which are exactly the roofs we work on most. On the bigger, treed lots around Deer Lake, Buckingham and Government Road, moss is the usual problem. It builds up on the shaded north slopes and blocks the water channels on the tile, so rain backs up and finds its way in. One of our recent Burnaby jobs was exactly that, a hidden leak from a broken water channel.

Then there is the other Burnaby, the towers, townhouse complexes and strata buildings around Metrotown and Brentwood, where the roofs are flat torch-on, SBS and commercial membranes that leak at the drains, seams and penetrations. We handle both sides of the city. Whatever the roof, we find the real cause and fix it right, with no pressure to re-roof when a repair will do.

Inside the Repairs

What We Found on These Burnaby Roofs

A tile roof that looked perfect and still leaked. We were chasing a leak on a Burnaby tile roof where every tile looked intact, even standing on it. The problem was hidden in the part of the tile that the next tile covers up. Every concrete tile has a water channel molded into its side, a raised lip and a groove that carries water down to the tile below. On this roof that channel was broken in the covered section, so water was slipping out underneath instead of running down the roof. Nothing you could see from above.

A chimney chase cap rusted right through. The chase cap is the metal lid on top of a framed chimney, and its only job is keeping water out of the structure below. On this Burnaby home it had rusted right through. Someone had also glued roofing nails all over the top, points up, to stop birds from landing on it. Creative, but the real problem was underneath. We replaced the cap.

B-vents sealed with nothing but roof cement. On a lot of older Burnaby tile roofs the metal B-vents are sealed to the tiles with roof cement. As it dries out, shrinks and cracks, water runs under the flashing and into the roof system. We do not just add more caulking. We install new B-vent flashings with a containment lip bent up around the flange, so the metal itself stops the water instead of relying on a bead of sealant.

Good Questions

Burnaby Roofing FAQ

Do you repair concrete tile roofs in Burnaby?

Yes, that is a lot of our work in Burnaby. On the older tile roofs around Capitol Hill and Burnaby Heights, most leaks come from broken tiles, moss blocking the water channels, or worn flashings and valleys, and those we repair without a full re-roof.

How much does roof repair cost in Burnaby?

Most roof repairs in Burnaby run somewhere between a few hundred and a couple of thousand dollars, depending on what is causing the leak. We give you a free estimate first and a straight answer on whether a repair will hold.

Do you work on flat and strata roofs around Metrotown and Brentwood?

Yes. A lot of Burnaby is towers, townhouses and strata buildings with flat torch-on, SBS and commercial membrane roofs. We repair the drains, seams and penetrations where those roofs usually leak.

What causes most tile roof leaks in Burnaby?

On the shaded, treed lots in Burnaby, moss is the biggest culprit. It builds up on north-facing slopes and blocks the water channels on the tile, so rain backs up under the tiles instead of running off. Clearing it and repairing the channel usually solves the leak.
