Roof Snow Removal in West Island

Q: "Do you respond quickly in the West Island?"

"Yes. The West Island is core territory for us, and during snowfalls and freezing-rain events our crews work 24/7 and reach most homes the same day. Non-storm bookings are usually scheduled within 24–48 hours."

Q: "Do you offer the same services in the West Island as in Montreal?"

"Yes. Roof snow removal, roof snow raking, flat roof snow removal, ice dam removal and metal roof snow removal are all available in every West Island town. Rates are the same across our whole service area, so a West Island address costs no more than one downtown."

Q: "Is a seasonal contract worth it for a West Island split-level?"

"It suits owners who travel in winter or simply don't want to watch the forecast. We return automatically each time accumulation passes a threshold you agree on, typically 30–40 cm, and contract clients get priority scheduling during storms."

Roof Snow Removal in West Island

We provide roof snow removal in the West Island in every municipality and borough from Dorval to Senneville, with crews on the road 24/7 through snowstorms and freezing rain. Most storm calls are reached the same day, and regular bookings within 24–48 hours. The typical West Island home is a bungalow or split-level with a sloped shingle roof, and the lake winds off Lac Saint-Louis push snow into drifts and feed the ice dams that form along its eaves.

Split-Levels, Shingles and Heat Loss

Much of the West Island was built out in the postwar decades, and many of those homes have modest attic insulation by today’s standards. Heat escaping through the ceiling melts snow on the upper roof; the water runs down and refreezes at the cold overhang, building a ridge of ice that backs water under the shingles. Split-levels add another wrinkle: the lower roof sits right below a taller wall, so snow sliding or blowing off the upper section piles up on it.

Our approach on these roofs is deliberate. We rake or shovel in layers with plastic tools, stop about 5–10 cm above the shingles so nothing scrapes the granules, and clear the plumbing stacks and vents so the house can breathe. If ice has already formed at the eaves, we cut channels and melt it back with low-pressure steam rather than chipping at it, which is what cracks shingles and tears gutters.

Owners of sloped roofs can read about roof snow removal and roof snow raking. Ice along the gutters calls for ice dam removal, and flat-roofed walk-ups and additions are covered by flat roof snow removal; we also clear metal roofs.
