What we do

Five things, done properly

Most of our work comes from repeat clients and referrals. That only happens when the roof does not leak, the schedule holds and the price is the price.

How we work

Our own crews, start to finish

Carpentry, masonry, concrete, steel and roofing stay in house, so your job is never waiting on somebody else’s crew. Here is what that looks like on a roof.

Hammerhead crew stripping old cedar shake on a Harbour Island roof
1. Strip and inspect. The old shake comes off and every rafter and sheet of decking is checked before anything goes back on.

2. Seal, then shake. Grace Ice & Water Shield over the whole deck, then Enviroshake laid by a certified crew.
