Roof Snow Removal in Kirkland

Q: "Do you respond quickly in Kirkland?"

"Yes. Kirkland is within our West Island core territory, and during snowfalls and freezing-rain events our crews work 24/7, reaching most homes the same day. Regular bookings outside of storms are usually handled within 24–48 hours."

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

"Yes. All five of our services are available in Kirkland: roof snow removal, roof snow raking, flat roof snow removal, ice dam removal and metal roof snow removal. Rates do not change from one part of our service area to another."

Q: "Why does snow build up in the valleys of my Kirkland cottage roof?"

"Where two roof slopes meet, snow slides into the valley from both sides and wind packs it in, so the valley can carry far more weight than the open slopes. Meltwater also concentrates there, which makes valleys a common spot for ice and leaks; we clear them first and make sure the path to the gutter is open."

Roof Snow Removal in Kirkland

A lot of the roof snow removal in Kirkland that we do is on two-storey cottages from the 1980s and 1990s, whose intersecting gables and dormers create deep valleys where snow collects. We cover the whole town with 24/7 storm crews that reach most homes the same day, and schedule regular visits within 24–48 hours.

Complex Rooflines and Valley Loads

Kirkland’s newer homes rarely have a simple two-sided roof. A typical cottage has a main gable, one or two cross gables over the garage or entrance, and sometimes a dormer or a lower roof over a family room. Every place where those surfaces meet forms a valley, and valleys fill first: snow slides in from both sides, wind drives more into the corner, and the weight concentrates on a narrow strip of framing. After a heavy, wet storm, a valley can hold several times the depth you see on the open slope.

We work these roofs slope by slope, starting with the valleys and the sections above living space. Snow comes off in layers with polymer shovels and roof rakes, and we leave about 5–10 cm on the shingles so no tool edge ever touches them. We also check the step flashing along dormer walls and the plumbing stacks, which can disappear under drifts and send a sewer smell back into the house.

Complex sloped roofs are covered under roof snow removal, and ice that forms where valleys meet the gutter under ice dam removal. Lighter jobs on garage roofs may only need roof snow raking. We also serve nearby Dollard-des-Ormeaux and Beaconsfield, as well as the wider West Island. Call 438-476-8876 or ask for a free quote.
