What our customers are saying

We purchased a building requiring a new flatroof. Didn't take to long to figure out who I was going to work with. Thru multiple business owners in the area and talking with some friends in real estate, the same name kept coming up. I gave Zach, owner, a call and booked a time to take a peak. He arrived ontime, prepared and presentable. He knew his product well and came up onto the roof to explain the process. After measurement and finalizing the details we decided to proceed with a roof replacement. A quotation was sent back within 2 days with pictures of the existing roof, new roof design and the payment schedule from start to completion. His crew that did the roof were very respectable of my property. There was no garbage left behind and the end product turned out great. Clearly, I'd be happy to do business with Watertite again. I could have done the contract on a handshake. Zacks words were few but what got promised happened and his communication was clear. I would have zero reservations in passing their name forward. Thanks for helping me out. Great company.

After doing a lot of research on possible solutions for renewing an existing 35yr old low pitch corrugated metal roof on a pre-eng industrial building; a membrane overlay system was chosen as the most effective from a performance, cost and warranty standpoint. After engaging 3 local firms for proposals, it quickly became apparent that Watertite was by far the best solution to meet our needs. Their rep (Zak) was very easy to work with, maintained great communications, and was very professional/responsive to any questions or communications I had. Through the whole process (survey, quotation, project coordination/execution, and wrap-up), Watertite and their personnel were top notch with little inconvenience to the tenant. Definitely would not hesitate to highly recommend Watertite and the Duro-last membrane system.

Always a pleasure working with Waterside Roofing from Dunnville, Ontario. Watertite is very professional at their workmanship and I will continue to have them complete multiple jobs in the future.

There’s a reason the Watertite team consistently receives glowing reviews & is a highly rated Better Business Bureau member - such standing can only be earned - by consistently delivering a high-quality service & customer experience. To start, Zak prepared a detailed quote that included photos & clearly outlined what needed to be done & why. Thereafter, Zak dispatched a highly skilled, professional team to make the much-needed repairs. Thank you Zak & team - you are a credit to your profession! In an industry fraught with unscrupulous characters, it’s a comfort knowing the Watertite team’s business model subscribes to such old-fashioned values as honesty, integrity, quality, & doing what they committed to do. Better Business Bureau membership is a key differentiator in an industry that lacks governance, oversight & consumer protection enforcement.

We did our due diligence on roofers when we needed a complete new 15,000 square foot flat roof. All signs were positive for Watertite and they did not disappoint us, they did a great job. Zack was our main contact and he kept us informed throughout the project and always returned our calls in a timely fashion. Well done Watertite team!

Well, we started by looking for an award-winning roofing material that could withstand the harsh Canadian weather. Then we discover Dura-Last – the most advanced vinyl roofing material ever developed. In so doing we also discovered an award winning flat roofing installer, even recommended by Dura-Last themselves. Turns out Watertite Roofing is the best flat roofing installer in Canada, serving right here in Southern Ontario. Went to their office, and I couldn't believe the number of awards that they have received. Hall walls full of awards. Nobody gets that many awards unless you're real good. So we not only get an Award winning product to protect our commercial investment, but we get the award-winning installers to boot. Don't gamble with your commercial properties - Watertite Roofing; the flat roofing specialists.

I have full confidence in recommending this company to anyone. I have used Watertite on three occasions (three different buildings). They were professional, clean and their pricing was better than the competitors. Completely satisfied with the service and finished product.

We hired Watertite Roofing to repair a leaking flat overhang on the front of our house that had been poorly done by another roofing company about 10 years earlier. Rot had set in and owner Zak Keyes had the solution for a permanent fix. Lead hand Jon took over from there and skillfully directed his crew to undo all the damage, working tirelessly in cold weather to give us a house that looks great and the knowledge that the problems are fixed for good. We highly recommend Watertite Roofing for flat roof construction and repair. Leanne and Pierre – Hamilton Ontario

Watertite did an amazing job with our rooftop terrace installation, very professional and built to last many years. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a solution that is long lasting and low maintenance. Amazing job!

Thank you Ibrahim, We really appreciate your Google rating us five stars. Can you share a few words about your experience please as it would be helpful for fellow Googlers. Thank you kindly from Management and Staff

The company is a family business, however they have plenty of other people to take care of your needs. Their estimate is done by Google earth and their representatives are very professional and helpful. The system they represent has an excellent 20 year warranty and provides a beautiful looking end result. Using this product is definitely a money saver when doing a flat tar and gravel roof replacement. I highly recommend them.

I had the opportunity to work with Watertite in 2008, they educated me on their product along with the installation process. The job was completed in a diligent and timely manner and the material is a superior technologically advanced product. Most recently, I had an ice issue this past December where Watertite came out to my building to tackle an ice issue. Upon completion, I was shocked to hear from Zak that there was NO charge for the time spent. There are a very few out there that exercise honest ethical business practice... THANK YOU
