Roof Inspection for Cause of Loss determination and estimate for roof replace/repair

Rich was sent to our place to evaluate if our roof leak could have been caused by the Toronto ice storm. Since our leak our insurance company sent a roofer to tarp our roof for emergency care. We explained all of this. When he came we was quite friendly and stated that he would go above and beyond for the home owner. His report stated otherwise! He deemed the roof was caused by the nails used to tarp our roof (LOL) and called it faulty worksmanship (which now the insurance company will not cover the cost of repair) My question is 1) if it was faulty worksmanship how come we never had a leak before or after the big ice storm? 2) how can the cause of the leak be the nails use to tarp the roof when that was done after the leak occured??? Rich seems like a nice enough person but clearly in the pockets of the big insurance companies and NOT looking out for the little guy. Because of his erroneous assessment it is costing us over $20,000 in repairs to the roof alone, not withstanding the interior repair costs. My recommendation is that Rich and fixer on the roof do not listen and seem to just go through the motions.

Hi Ty,

I too received the inspection report from Barr Roofing 2010 and have seen the pictures of the specific leak sites. I have no other way to respond other than to say I am sorry you didn't like what my assigned roofing contractor had to say. Posting a bad review because you didn't want to hear it wasn't an insurance claim is very low. We don't work for insurance or anyone else we tell it as it is as we are honest. Here is an excerpt on the cause of loss for all those potential customers who are reading this review and our repsonse:
Barr Roofing 2010
"We assessed the flat roof system, the main roof, the drainage and the interior of the home by physically going on the roof and interior of the home. We determined the cause of loss is poor workmanship to the flat roof membrane system specifically at protrusions, at transitions and along perimetre. These areas can be repaired however we recommend a new roof system be installed over existing flat roof as it appears the tarp, that is no longer present, was installed using roof nails throughout the flat roof membrane rather than being properly strapped to main shingled system and perimeter, these nails may cause between 30-60 possible leak sites. "

At this time we recommend full roof replacement of flat roof membrane system and repair to scupper area on mansard. I have provided a quote to replace and repair.

Best of luck with your roof and if you can find a roofer to say it was ice damming so you can get insurance money shame on them!

Assisted Review

An assisted review is collected by a contractor on behalf of the homeowner after their work is completed. The homeowner must confirm the text of the review and may make any changes she or he deems appropriate. The homeowner then assigns the contractor a review score out of 10. Assisted reviews receive the same scrutiny as other reviews and must follow our review guidelines.

We were very pleased with Justin & crew and also with the service you provided.
Your help made a difficult process much, much easier and it was great
to have someone to turn to for help & advice.
It was an enormous relief to us to find a roofer who really inspired our trust.

The first thing that inspired our confidence was the detailed quote specifying the materials and exactly what you planned to do, including costing for unforeseen problems. Attentive customer service helped too – I’ve never had a contractor call to say he’ll be 10 minutes late!! The workmen were polite and considerate, and I think my property is cleaner now than before you were here.

At every stage of the job, I felt like you were taking as much care with our home as you would with your own.

I unreservedly recommend you!!

Leaky Roof - Money Back!

The roof in our mudroom was leaking after a fast thaw in February. We contacted FOTR because we saw they had great reviews. We contacted the office and immediately heard back from Trish and had someone come out super fast.
We paid $450 for the repair but because it didn't hold up (their 90 day guarantee) we were issued a FULL refund. Its been a tough, long winter and we will require more in-depth work than just a fix.
We really appreciate Trish and Fixer on the Roof standing by their guarantee. Trish ALWAYS responded lightening-fast to any question or concern we had and she displays integrity and honesty. Things we all very much appreciate.

Hi Pitu,

Thank you so much for this review. Above all I believe in providing the right solution for the roofing system and if we can't guarantee to stop the leak we should never attempt the repair. With all this ice damming this winter we are sorry we couldn't get that leak to stop. The good news is you are fully aware you need to replace this section and we are happy to send you a few roofers to quote the proper long term solution.

take care on behalf of team fixer

Skylight leak repair

I phoned Fixer on the Roof at 5:30 pm to report my leaky ceiling. I received a phone call back half an hour later from Rick Barr. He explained what he thought the issue would be and told me he could come by and take a look the next morning. Rick came at 9am, just like he told me he would, with all his supplies ready to repair the leak. He was a pleasure to work with, efficient and very reasonably priced. Rather than suggesting that we completely rip out the skylight (as another contractor had) he recommended a tune up that would last me 3 years before I would have to replace the skylight and shingle system. Rick took before and after pictures and sent them to me showing the work that had been done on the skylight, flashing and loose shingles. I'm incredibly impressed!

Leak repair

We noticed a leak coming down through our second floor ceiling. I took a look at the roof and wasn't able to diagnose the issue myself. Rick was friendly and professional. He removed the ice dams in our eavestroughs, re-sealed the flat part of our roof which was causing problems, and performed a couple other minor repairs. He also identified a couple of unrelated issues that we'll need to repair in the near future.

Flat Roof Repair

I have a flat roof (vinyl membrane) and water leaking onto my bedroom ceiling causing a fair bit of damage. I had approx. 8 roofing companies investigate the situation of which 7 of the 8 spent 15 minutes glancing around and pushing for a full roof replace (although the roof is only 7 years old). Not satisfied I called Fixer on the Roof and left a message - they called me back within hours (on a weekend) and dispatched Rick Barr to investigate. Rick is a true professional and a friendly guy, He accessed the situation thoroughly, took photo's and ended up finding a hole at the corner of my flat roof where ice was forming -- none of the other companies find this but Rick did. He provided a thorough estimate and 1 yr warranty - the work was completed just days later and on time. We just had a significant snow fall and now heavy rains and it seems the leak is no more! If you are looking for a reliable, trustworthy type of man call Fixer on the Roof!

Hi Mike,

Thank you so much for your kind review. Rick is known for finding leaks that are not only related to the roof, but the overall structure of the home as many times homes were built for form and functionality ie moving water out of a certain area is disregarded. I am glad he was able to resolve the leak for you.

take care

Roof

We had some ice damming issues on our flat roof that leaked right into our basement. Fixer on the roof was prompt and efficient, came and fixed the problem.
They removed snow and ice from the roof, and they came and did the work in extreme cold conditions. They also provided us with pictures of before and after.
