Sierrans Roofing

A roof job in a Langley November is rarely a planned one. It starts with a stain on the ceiling after a week of rain. Sierrans Roofing works on sloped roofs only, which covers most houses, townhouse complexes and strata buildings around here, and it handles both the small fix and the full tear-off.

What they do

Their services list runs from roof leak repair and general repairs to full replacement and re-roofing, with asphalt shingle as the main material. They also take on strata and multi-family buildings, commercial sloped roofs and emergency leak calls. The gallery on their site includes skylight installs, which is worth asking about if you’re re-roofing around one.

Their own pitch is to explain what the roof actually needs before quoting: a localized leak may only need a repair, while widespread wear points to replacement. A recent post on their blog covers how to compare roof replacement estimates, a decent read before you collect three quotes.

Who’s behind it

On its About page the company describes itself as a family business of 16 years with a tight-knit crew. We couldn’t find an owner named in their own materials, the registry or local news, so we’re not publishing a name. The BC company registration dates to June 2008.

Practical bits

• Phone 236-662-3667; the website has a free-estimate form asking for your property address and a short description of the roof.
• Google lists them open Monday to Friday 7 to 7 and Saturday 9 to 4, closed Sunday. For an emergency, call ahead rather than assuming.
• They state a 10-year labour warranty and $5 million in liability insurance. Ask for both in writing with your quote, as you would with any roofer.
• The site names other service areas too, including Abbotsford, Delta, Burnaby and White Rock, so ask when they can get to you.
