Sky High Roofing and Siding is Ottawa’s trusted choice for quality roofing and exterior solutions.
When it comes to protecting one’s largest investment, your home, it is crucial to make sure you have a healthy roof. With the increasing severity of weather in Ottawa, homeowners need to ensure their roofs are durable and capable of withstanding strong winds. What is a healthy roof? The top three things you should look for on a re-roof estimate are:
- How many rows of ice and water shields
- Proper ventilation: not too much or too little
- High-quality shingles. (Take them into a dark room and shine a flashlight behind them. Some brands you can see the light through! Spooky.)
Sky High offers free estimates and roof inspections for $199 (these are excellent gifts for anyone you would rather not see up on a roof!) Roofing expert Paul Cudahy is also available as a consultant to help you choose which roofing quote is the best option.
“We take great pride in our ability to provide exceptional roofing services,” says Paul Cudahy, Sky High Roofing and Siding owner. “Our goal is to go above and beyond for our clients, offering comprehensive solutions tailored to their specific needs.”
Sky High Roofing and Siding, a reputable family-run business specializing in roofing, siding, eavestrough and snow removal services, celebrates almost four decades of excellence in the industry. With a firm commitment to customer satisfaction, the company has become a go-to choice in Ottawa for residential and commercial clients seeking top-quality exterior solutions.
With an impressive portfolio of over 5,000 reroofing projects in the Ottawa area, Sky High Roofing and Siding has established itself as a trusted name in the community. They place a strong emphasis on utilizing high-quality materials and provide great workmanship, guaranteed.
“We understand the impact weather can have on a roof’s performance, especially in a city like Ottawa that experiences high winds and unpredictable weather patterns,” explains Cudahy. “Including using shingles with a wind rating of 210 kilometres per hour.” Last May, Ottawa experienced winds up to 190 km per hour.
Their warranty and guarantee policies provide customers with peace of mind. The company aims to foster long-term relationships with its clients by offering reliable, efficient, and affordable services.
“We offer a 10-year workmanship warranty, giving our customers peace of mind,” explains Cudahy. “Additionally, the materials we use come with an ironclad 15-year warranty, with the first 15 years fully covered, including labour, disposal of old shingles and application of new products. The material warranty is prorated for the remaining 50 years.”
Sky High Roofing and Siding offer free estimates for full reroofing projects. Their team thoroughly inspects the roof during the estimate process, enabling them to identify potential issues and discuss them transparently with customers.
In addition to their dedication to quality workmanship, Sky High Roofing and Siding understands the importance of financial flexibility for their customers. They offer in-house financing options with terms of up to six months. They also facilitate third-party financing options, such as small lines of credit or mortgages that can be paid off without penalties at any time.
Once a full reroofing project is completed, Sky High Roofing and Siding recommends a five-year roof inspection. This proactive approach allows them to address any potential issues arising from weather conditions, settling, or caulking-related factors.
Now, Paul is passing the company down to his daughter, Jessica. The Cudahy’s are proud to have created this local, family-run enterprise and to support women in the trades.
“By actively involving women in roofing, we can create a more equitable workforce, tap into a larger pool of talent, and empower women to pursue rewarding careers while challenging stereotypes and breaking down barriers.” Jessica Cudahy said.
“Our goal is to deliver superior full roofing systems that leave our customers feeling confident. Being a family business with a strong presence in the area, we connect with our clients on a personal level.”
“At our in-person estimates, my father and I go on the roof to take measurements and analyze the scope of work needed,” she said. “Once we are done at that stage, I can print out the estimate right in our truck! Then we sit down with our customer, taking our time to explain all the steps. Knowledge is power, and we enjoy making sure you are left with all the information you need to make the best decision for your home.”
Jessica Cudahy said over the past 38 years, her father, Paul Cudahy, has made significant contributions to the roofing industry. He has been a featured expert on local radio for a decade, providing trusted advice. During this time, he dedicated himself to addressing callers’ inquiries about roofing, providing valuable insights and advice.
