Roofing for Shuswap Lake Communities
Sorrento, Blind Bay, Sicamous, Tappen, Canoe, and Chase. Call now.
We do roofing around Shuswap Lake: leaks, repairs, re-roofs, storm damage, snow and ice, moss, and metal. The towns are not the same drive from Salmon Arm. Canoe is close. Sicamous and Chase are not. If the drive is longer, we'll say so before we come.
Say the town when you call. "The lake" is not enough to price a trip. Also say whether anyone is there to open the place, and whether water is coming inside. If a wire or a service mast came down, call BC Hydro at 1-888-769-3766 first.
Sorrento
Sorrento is on the north shore, along the Trans-Canada. Year-round houses and summer cabins, with steep lanes down to the water. A leak in a cabin shut since fall can run for weeks. The full notes are on theroofing in Sorrento page.
Blind Bay
Blind Bay is the next bay east. Lots sit close to the water, and a lot of the drives are short and steep. Wind off the lake works on the eaves. The full notes are on theroofing in Blind Bay page.
Sicamous
Sicamous is at the east end of the lake, on the channel. Cabins sit empty for months, and the drive from Salmon Arm is the long one. Travel can be part of the price. The full notes are on theroofing in Sicamous page.
Tappen
Tappen is the smaller community between Salmon Arm and Sorrento. Highway houses, a few places near the water, and shops with metal roofs. The full notes are on theroofing in Tappen page.
Canoe
Canoe is on the east side of Salmon Arm. There is no separate page for it. The drive is short. Older roofs, needles in the gutters, and the odd leak after a rain are still the work. Say Canoe when you call. A drip is theleak page. A few lifted shingles arerepair. Green on the north slope ismoss and gutters.
Chase
Chase is southwest, on Little Shuswap Lake, toward Kamloops. It is a longer drive than Tappen or Sorrento. Town lots and acreages, with wind off the lake. The full notes are on theroofing in Chase page.
What changes the price
Distance, pitch, how many storeys, what's under the old roofing, and whether it's asphalt or metal. A steep lane with nowhere to park a delivery changes the day before anyone is on the roof. Typical ranges are on thecost page. They are estimates, not quotes. We confirm the price before we start. If water is coming in, call. The steps while you wait are on theemergency page.
