Roofs we have finished, and the work we bring to Yorkton
Quick answers
- Should a new roof have vents? Yes. Yorkton swings from a -17.9 C January average to a 17.8 C July average, and a poorly vented attic traps moisture at one end and bakes the shingles at the other.
- What are signs you need a new roof? Worn asphalt that gets brittle and cracks in the cold, which is where much of Yorkton's older stock sits, well past its first shingle cycle.
- How long is a new roof warranty? A 10-year workmanship warranty, plus GAF's manufacturer warranty on the materials, on every Yorkton roof we install.

All about Yorkton, SK
Named for the York Farmers Colonization Company, formed by Ontario businessmen in 1882. The settlement physically relocated in 1888-89 to meet the new rail line - a town that moved to the tracks. Today Yorkton is home to about 16,280 people.
A regional service centre for southeastern Saskatchewan - healthcare, education, retail and agri-business. The Yorkton Film Festival, the longest-running short-film festival in North America; St. Mary's Ukrainian Catholic Church with its famous dome mural.
More about Yorkton
The city has declared a State of Emergency for storm water twice in recent memory, after the hail and flash flood of 1 July 2010 that hit Broadway Street hardest, and again after flash floods in late June 2014.
Yorkton is the sixth-largest city in Saskatchewan, spread across 36.19 square kilometres and bordered by the rural municipality of Orkney on three sides and Wallace on the east. It works as the regional service centre for southeastern Saskatchewan, which means a large stock of commercial and institutional buildings sits among the housing. After the 2010 hail and flood those were the buildings with the most exposed roof area and the fewest people looking at them.
From the Broadway Street heritage commercial core and surrounding older homes to some newer development, a solid roof matters here, because Saskatchewan weather does not let a worn one slide. We serve Yorkton with honest assessments, clean job sites, and a 10-year workmanship warranty on every roof we install, from emergency leak repairs to full replacements.

What our customers say about the crew that runs to Yorkton
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+
