Independent Roof Inspection Services Ltd

Our roofer did a poor job re-shingling our roof so we contacted Dave for an inspection. We highly recommend having a roof inspection immediately after a roofing job as most homeowners have no idea what a proper roofing job entails with some roofers cutting corners to save time. Some roof inspectors won't even go on the roof.

Dave conducted initial and follow-up inspections by going up on our roof and he provided detailed reports complete with photos. There were a few delays and bumps along the way; in the end Dave came through for us and got the job done. It was thanks to Dave's experience and his reports that we were able to have our roofer address all outstanding issues. Thanks again Dave!

Got our roof redone and a week later problems started happening. We lost trust with the workmanship of the company that did the job and wanted a second opinion. It is hard to go on your roof let alone know what to look for. So, we called Dave for an inspection of our new roof. He inspected carefully and took his time to explain everything to us. His report explained all deficiencies and we used it as evidence for the roofing company which addressed most issues. Dave followed up with the repairs and was always available for extra questions that I had. His expert roofing knowledge brought us great comfort and help in our time of need.

Dave and his son came to repair a few deficiencies in our roof. They were professional, reasonably priced, and got the job done. Very friendly, and didn't push unnecessary repairs.

When they finished the repair, Dave noticed that we needed a new downspout, and offered to install it later in the week for free.

Dave was a pleasure to work with and gave us piece of mind regarding our roof. They were professional, experienced and left us feeling confident about the project at hand. I would greatly recommend them to anyone in need of roof inspection services.

I had my entire roof done 3 months ago but I suspected it was not done properly. I found IRIS from homestars.com and called Dave. what a pleasant experience!
Dave and his son David arrived on time. They are very polite and professional. The want up to the top of roof, inspected thoroughly and took lots photos. They also spent time explaining to my roofing company what is wrong with the roof job.
Finally, I received the report within two days. This is detailed report with pictures as evidence. I am very happy with IRIS and definitely recommend them.

Out of the multiple roof inspection companies I called, Dave was the only person who was open to traveling to Tottenham to inspect our roof. He was more than willing to schedule our appointment on December 27th, a day after the Christmas holidays. Dave was super friendly on the phone and answered all of our questions, even before meeting with us. Dave and his partner were punctual, friendly, thorough and spent time explaining th the definciencies he found on our roof. Hiring Dave was one of the best decisions and worth the expense as we wouldn't have known about the damages without using this service. He also gave us some good pointers and tips on roofs and attics. Thank you Independent Roof Inspection Services for your professionalism!!

Independent Roof Inspection Services was exactly what we were looking for, when we urgently needed honest advice about the roof of our Toronto home. Three different roofers we’d called offered very different explanations and solutions for leaks we’d been having (including one who insisted we need to replace the entire roof) and we had no idea whom to trust. Then, suddenly we had water from the roof coming into the house creating damage on every storey of our house. We needed independent advice and quickly. We contacted Dave of Independent Roof Inspection Services and he called back promptly, arranging to come the next day. We learned that Dave has decades of experience in the roofing business and is now consulting to homeowners like us who want expert impartial advice from someone who does not have a vested interest in selling something. Within a day, we had a detailed written report with photos detailing the problems with our roof and a list of the specific, relatively minor, things that needed to be done to fix them. Dave is guiding us through the steps we need to take, answering any questions we have, and checking up on work we are having done to assure that the problems have been properly addressed. Thanks to Dave we have avoided costly unnecessary expenses. Highly recommend.

I called Independent Roof Inspection Services because we were worried that there was mold and potential structural damage to our roof. We have plans to reshingle the roof so rather than have a roofing company come and look at it, we figured it would be beneficial to have an independent inspection done to be on the safe side.

Independent Roof Inspection Services did a great job, they were polite, reliable and they were thorough in their inspection. A full written report was sent the day after inspection outlining any issues with the roof and the conclusions of the inspection. My family and I were very happy with their service. Best part is that our roof is ok, just can use new shingles and additional vents. Could have potentially ended up spending a lot if a non independent company looked at it.

We thought we hired the best reputable roofer - big name in the city. We noticed a few issues during installation and on their final review discovered BIG issues (roof vents just slapped right onto shingles without actual venting!!) This was a shock and we knew we needed independent advice - not getting proper answers from the roofer. After calling Dave, we immediately felt at ease. He took over, is so respected, and made sure that the roofer repaired everything to his satisfaction, despite it taking numerous times for them to complete everything. Make sure to hire him in advance to monitor the job - so worth it !!!

My next door neighbour was re-roofing their house and the roofer mentioned that mine was also in bad shape. Not knowing this person, I wasn't sure if he was just trying an up-sell since he would already be next door. Since I've never been up on my roof and wouldn't know what to look for even if I was up there, I called Independent Roof Inspection Services who confirmed I needed a re-roof done and showed me why. However, it's the additional services of (1) Providing a reasonability check on estimates, and (2) doing a post-job inspection to make sure it is done right, that provides complete peace of mind.
