Techniques

Our working technique for your roofing projects in Montérégie

For a durable and waterproof roof!
The first step taken by Sommet Rénovation before starting a new project is the preparation of the site. We move or protect all patio furniture and plants and shrubs that may be damaged by debris from the roof.The second step is to put in place all the necessary safety measures to ensure that all employees and persons in the workplace are safe. Then we remove all the old shingles. All damaged areas, such as those damaged by water infiltration, will be removed and restored to perfect condition.

Environmental awareness

Our company is actively involved in improving the environment by avoiding burying asphalt shingles. Our priority is to maximize recycling. Asphalt shingles will be transferred to a recycling plant for processing. The product can be reused as an additive in asphalt for road construction, which represents a significant environmental benefit.

Superior protection

Your roofer will install a self-adhesive membrane on the first three to six feet of the eave as required, and the entire roof will be covered with a Deckgard or Diamond Deck. We also install additional protection against ice and water in areas that require it (Resiststo membrane).

We then install an aluminum or steel drip bar on the entire perimeter of the roof to prevent water from rising under the shingles. These products are available in a wide variety of colours.

Flashings, vents and ventilation

Our experts replace flashings around chimneys and brick walls. Modifications will be made behind brick chimneys to prevent standing water. All plumbing vents and kitchen and bathroom ventilation systems are replaced. Roof ventilation is very important. A poorly ventilated roof can reduce its longevity and affect the comfort of your home. The company offers a wide variety of ventilation systems, installed according to the manufacturer’s standards. All unpainted metal is cleaned and receives one coat of primer and two coats of finish.

The valleys

On the subject of valleys, the entrepreneur uses two methods: a closed valley and an open valley. We install a self-adhesive membrane that we cover with a galvanized sheet and we finish by gluing the shingle with another suitable membrane, the only difference being that for the open valley, we use a pre-painted galvanized sheet.

Shingles of recognized brands

We mainly install BP Canada brand shingles, which is a local product. We also install other brands such as Certainteed, IKO and GAF. All these brands offer a wide range of shingles, from architectural style to more traditional style, with a wide range of colours. They offer guarantees ranging from 25 years to limited lifetime guarantees.

Sommet Rénovation is attentive to the needs of customers to satisfy their requirements in terms of product selection, colours and guarantees.
