Roofs we have finished, and the work we bring to Saskatoon
Quick answers
- Should a new roof have vents? Yes. Saskatoon averages 2,350.4 hours of bright sunshine a year, which bakes a poorly vented attic in summer, and the same attic traps moisture in the deep freeze.
- What does a roof look like when it needs to be replaced? Brittle asphalt that cracks fast in the cold, common in the older river-side neighbourhoods that grew out from the 1903 west-side charter.
- How long is a new roof guaranteed for? Every Saskatoon roof we install comes with a 10-year workmanship warranty, and the GAF manufacturer warranty covers the materials.

Who stands behind the work
Certifications, accreditation and partners behind our Saskatoon 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 Saskatoon, SK
Saskatoon holds 115,619 private dwellings across a river valley in plant hardiness zone 3b, and that combination decides most of what we get called out for.
Ice damming and heavy snow load
Aging roofs in the older river-side neighbourhoods
Summer storm and hail damage
Attic ventilation under 2,350 hours of sun
Eavestroughs on a river-valley grade
On a Saskatoon roof we go after the cause, from attic venting to ice dams at the eaves, not the wet spot.
More about repair or replace on a Saskatoon roof
Repair or replace? How to tell on a Saskatoon roof
| Situation | A repair usually makes sense | Replacement is the call |
|---|---|---|
| Roof age | Under ~15 years, plenty of life left | Near or past its rated lifespan |
| Damage extent | Local: a few shingles, one leak, one flashing | Widespread bruising, multiple leaks, bald spots |
| Leak history | First leak, easy to trace | Recurring leaks in different spots |
| Insurance / storm | Minor, below your deductible | Storm damage that qualifies for an SGI claim |
| Cost over time | One fix solves it | Repairs are stacking up year over year |

More about Saskatoon
The city straddles a bend in the South Saskatchewan River and sits in the aspen parkland, in plant hardiness zone 3b, with 115,619 private dwellings counted in the 2021 census.
The city began in 1882 when the Toronto-based Temperance Colonization Society was granted 21 sections of land straddling the river between what is now Warman and Dundurn, and the first settlers arrived the following year under John Neilson Lake. The Meewasin Valley Authority now protects the South Saskatchewan River corridor running through the middle of it. Roofs along that corridor sit in the most exposed part of the city, with the river's own wind funnel and no built-up shelter on the valley side.
From Nutana and Riversdale to Stonebridge and Evergreen, a solid roof matters here, because Saskatchewan weather does not let a worn one slide. We serve Saskatoon with honest assessments, clean job sites, and a 10-year workmanship warranty on every roof we install, from emergency leak repairs to full replacements.

Rated 5.0 on Google · W Contracting Roofing · read them on Google
Thanks to Nathan and his team. We had a leaky roof and what we thought was going to be a total nightmare and financial disaster turned out to be a relaxing, seamless and affordable process. From the initial phone call to the end of the job Nathan kept communication going and was patient and knowledgeable when I was trying to choose the right shingles. I can’t thank Nathan and the team enough. We were so impressed we didn’t bother obtaining any quotes from other companies. It’s W Contracting all the way!!!
We were fortunate to find W contracting when we needed a roof replacement. An earlier company we contacted kept saying they'd start in a few days... and then never showed up. Nathan and his professional crew were methodical, and willing to do the little extras that a shingling job may require. They were prompt, quick, thorough and left the site very tidy. Price was good and the street appeal of our house went up, thanks to Nathan's team. A very solid 10 out of 10. We heartily recommend them with absolutely no reservations.
We had Nathan from W Contracting out for a hail estimate, and the service was nothing short of remarkable. In the end, we had to combine our roof claim with a previous garage issue, but the estimate Nathan provided-along with his knowledge and advice-was so thorough that even my insurance adjuster took note. I highly recommend W Contracting for all your roofing needs!
We had new shingles put on our home and had a very positive experience with Nathan and his crew. We would definitely recommend them. They have a great selection of shingles to choose from and a great warranty. Thank you to Nathan and the crew for treating our home well and making the roof look great.
Nathan and the crew were wonderful to deal with. From repairing the roof, installing new shingles, clean-up and competitive pricing, they were professional and efficient in every step. Would trust them to do a roof anytime and will recommend them to everyone we know.
Nathan and his team of roofers are definitely a fantastic group to work with. Nathan came out at 3 am to retarp my roof after the tarp was tore off in a storm. They did a fantastic job with all including clean up. I would fully recommend them. 5 plus stars
Nathan was fast and efficient fixing my rain gutter after it blew down during the night! Very friendly would definitely recommend.
Would recommend Nathan and his team to anyone looking for quality roof job done. They were very accommodating with my time frame, budget and nature of the job. Left the site clean and tidy. A+
