Roofs we have finished, and the work we bring to Martensville

Walking a finished hip roof, vents and pipe flashing already in place.

Quick answers

  • Should a new roof have vents? Yes. Quick-build housing from Martensville's growth is where we most often find venting specified on paper and never finished properly.
  • When replace roof shingles? When your build year comes due. Much of Martensville shares a post-1976 build date, and worn asphalt from that era gets brittle and cracks in the cold.
  • How long is a new roof warranty? A 10-year workmanship warranty on each Martensville roof we install, and GAF's manufacturer warranty covers the materials.

We at W Contracting Roofing are a roofing contractor working out of 410 Stensrud Rd #139 in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, and we provide roofing in Martensville, SK, a city since 2009. We are GAF Certified, HAAG Certified, and a BBB Accredited Business with an A rating. We back every roof we install with a 10-year workmanship warranty.

Local roofers

Serving the Martensville community

  • Local expertise you can trust

    We know Martensville, from the original town core to Lake Vista, and we build to Saskatchewan code for our climate. Skews young - much of the housing is 2000s-and-newer subdivision builds with builder-grade asphalt shingles now reaching the front edge of their replacement window. Older homes near the original core are the exception.

  • Built for Martensville's weather

    Directly named in the August 20-22, 2025 severe storm: the Northern Tornadoes Project investigated a possible tornado near Martensville, with golf-ball to baseball-sized hail and 120 km/h gusts. Our roofing systems are built for it: ice and water shield at the eaves, full underlayment, GAF shingles, and proper ventilation so your home stays protected year-round.

Who stands behind the work

Certifications, accreditation and partners behind our Martensville work

GAF

As a GAF Certified contractor, we install GAF systems with the GAF Timberline HDZ shingle as our workhorse, and every install carries a 10-year workmanship warranty.

HAAG

We are HAAG Certified, so storm damage gets inspected the way an adjuster inspects it, and cosmetic marks get told apart from bruising that shortens a roof’s life.

Better Business Bureau

We are a BBB Accredited Business with an A rating, listed in Saskatoon.

Financeit

Our financing runs through Financeit, so a roof can be spread over monthly payments instead of paid all at once.

Local challenges

Common roofing challenges in Martensville, SK

Martensville only got sewer and water in 1976, and the building surge that followed still sets the age of most roofs in the city.

Ice damming and heavy snow load
Martensville covers 13.56 square kilometres of flat open ground with 3,639 occupied dwellings on it, and nothing much to slow the wind. Dry snow drifts unevenly across a roof, and the freeze-thaw at the eaves builds ice dams that force water back up under the shingles.
Roofs from the post-1976 building surge
Servicing arrived in 1976 and growth accelerated straight after, so a large block of Martensville housing shares a build date and therefore a roof age. Worn asphalt from that era gets brittle and cracks fast in the cold.
Storm and wind damage
Martensville sits on the open plain about 18 km north of Saskatoon with no valley or tree cover to break a summer cell. Wind lifts and creases shingles and strips ridge caps, and hail bruises the mat under the granules where you cannot see it from the ground.
Poor attic ventilation
The city grew 9.3% in the five years to 2021, and quick-build housing is where we most often find venting that was specified on paper and never finished properly. A poorly vented attic traps moisture that rots the deck from below, and in summer it bakes the shingles.
Eavestrough and drainage problems
Martensville runs 777.9 people per square kilometre across 13.56 square kilometres of close to level ground, so an eavestrough that does not carry its load has nowhere to shed to and the neighbouring lot is rarely far enough away to help. Blocked or undersized troughs overflow, feed ice dams in winter, and dump water against the foundation during spring melt.

In Martensville we fix the cause, often venting that was specified on paper and never finished, rather than the wet spot. Soffit vents are part of that venting, and our guide to soffit and fascia repair in Martensville covers what to look for along the roof edge.

All about Martensville, SK

In 1939 Isaac Martens and son Dave Martens bought land north of Saskatoon and sold parcels to families, many Mennonite, leaving the city. Village 1966, town 1969, city 2009. Today Martensville is home to about 10,549 people.

Bedroom/commuter community for Saskatoon with agricultural surroundings. Near Wanuskewin Heritage Park.

More about Martensville

It began in 1939 when Isaac Martens and his son Dave sold three small parcels of land north of Saskatoon, became a village in 1966, a town in 1969 and a city in 2009, and now holds 3,639 occupied private dwellings.

Martensville covers 13.56 square kilometres and had a population density of 777.9 people per square kilometre at the 2021 census, which is dense for a city that was farmland inside living memory. The community exists because Isaac Martens and his son Dave saw that people working in Saskatoon wanted to live outside it, and it has never really stopped being that. Compact lots and continuous infill mean roof access here is often tighter than the open prairie setting would suggest, and we plan the job around that.

From the original town core to Lake Vista, a solid roof matters here, because Saskatchewan weather does not let a worn one slide. We serve Martensville with honest assessments, clean job sites, and a 10-year workmanship warranty on every roof we install, from emergency leak repairs to full replacements.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions, Martensville roofing

How long does a roof replacement take in Martensville?
Most Martensville roof replacements are done in a single day once the job is booked and materials are staged. Larger or steeper roofs can run into a second day. Weather can shift the schedule, and we will always keep you posted. Summer is Martensville's wettest season, so that is when a date is most likely to move.
Do you provide a warranty on your Martensville roofing work?
Yes. Every roof we install in Martensville carries a 10-year workmanship warranty, on top of the GAF manufacturer warranty on the materials. If anything in our work needs attention in that window, we come back. Martensville is about 18 km north of Saskatoon, straight up Hwy 12, and we work there regularly.
How do you handle heavy snow loads and ice dams in Martensville?
We install ice and water shield along the eaves to stop ice damming, full underlayment, and proper attic ventilation so heat and moisture do not get trapped. January in Martensville averages -17 °C, so snow that attic heat melts from below refreezes when it reaches the cold eaves, and that is how an ice dam starts.
Do you help with storm damage and SGI insurance claims in Martensville?
Yes. We are HAAG Certified, so on a Martensville roof we inspect the way an adjuster does, document everything with photos and video, and work alongside your adjuster so the approved scope reflects the real, storm-caused damage. On a Martensville job you also get photo and video updates while the work is on, and a final inspection of the roof when it is done.
Which areas of Martensville do you serve?
We serve all of Martensville, including the original town core, Lake Vista, and the surrounding area. We also quote acreage and farm roofs around Saskatoon.
