Watertite's 46' Chevy Flatbed Featured at the No.6 RCAF Museum Open House and Car Show

On Saturday July 6, the No. 6 RCAF Museum in Dunnville, Ontario, hosted their annual open house and car show, and it was nothing short of spectacular! Our '46 Chev flatbed stood out, proudly displaying the RCAF flag from the Second World War, in recognition and honour of the airmen who trained in Dunnville during WWII. 

The day was filled with excitement, but the highlight was undeniably the flyover by WWII-era Harvard training aircraft. These planes hold a special place in history, having been used to train allied airmen from around the world right here at Dunnville Airport. This key training facility played a crucial role during WWII, contributing to Canada's impressive rise as the fourth largest airpower in the world by 1944. Facilities like Dunnville were instrumental in producing some of the finest aviators of the time. 

As experts in low-slope metal roofing repairs, replacements, and waterproofing solutions, we recognize expertise when we see it. The No. 6 RCAF Museum expertly displays and teaches our local chapter in the history of the Second World War. 

As we reflect on this fantastic event, we also want to extend our heartfelt congratulations to the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) on celebrating its centennial this year. Here's to a century of excellence and to many more successful events at the No. 6 RCAF Museum. If you missed it this year, mark your calendars for next year&mdashthis is an event you won't want to miss!

What our customers are saying

  • 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.

  • As the VP on the board of directors for our co-op apartment building in Hamilton for only the last 8 years, I was not involved in the initial decision to purchase a replacement solution for our, now, 60 year old building and therefore cannot comment on time lines involved. However, a few years ago, we felt the need to make sure it was working as it should and had a Watertite manager come to do an appropriate inspection, which resulted in his assurance that all was as it should be, which also gave me the opportunity to get a deeper understanding and appreciation of the Duro-Last product installed by Watertite. Though it is ill advised to walk around the roof in spiked track shoes, there is a fair amount of traffic as a result of regular, seasonal maintenance of our 4 roof drains by service personnel and yet the roof still continues to show no sign of aging. There is an apartment across the street of similar size and vintage that seems to almost annually require people to come and re-apply tar paper and heated tar. By contrast our roof has needed absolutely no maintenance in the 10 years since its installation and we still have another five years on our warranty. I understand this material has a number of installations in excess of 30 years. My understanding of the initial advantages of our purchase decision relate to: - the comparative speed and efficiency of installation due to its pre-engineering and construction in the consistency of a factory environment, -the fact the membrane could be installed over top of existing infrastructure without expensive replacement of valuable materials that continued to serve the building, -that it is safely installed without the use of open flame tools and finally, -as opposed to (sun) heat-absorbing tar paper based installations, the Duro-Last is made of a reflective material which contributes directly to the diminished need for air conditioning compensation. I have zero problems recommending the Watertite's Duro-Last roof replacement or for new building installation.

  • 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.

  • As a custom home builder and renovator we work on many unique projects that require unique products and solutions. We only work with contractors that can provide the level of professionalism, service, and product quality that we demand of ourselves for our clientele. Watertite Roofing is one of those contractors who sets the bar higher for others. Their response time, organization of operations, and delivery on service is rarely paralleled. And they install a durable, well warrantied product that takes a load off our minds. We wouldn't use anyone else.

  • We have used Watertite Roofing on several occasions and have been extremely happy with their service. They have come to our rescue many, many times always swiftly and professionally. It's incredibly hard finding a great roofing company. I'm pleased to say that we've found them and look forward to doing business with them for many years to come.

  • 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

  • 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

  • The Optimist Club of Dunnville has worked with Watertite over the years. Recently, we contracted them to install a Duro-Last overlay roof system on the flat roof over our kitchen and back storage area. We were very pleased with the job. They noted a minor concern on a roof on which they were not working and repaired it at no extra charge. The team from - the quote, to the installation, to the office payment was friendly and professional. Installation of this durable, well-warrantied roofing allows us to focus our time and energy on our mission with the youth rather than worrying about leaking roof. Kudos to the Watertite team!

  • During a heavy rain event, the roof leaked and one of the tenant was concerned about the leak. I called Watertite Roofing and they were on the roof to patch the leak by end of the same day. In the meantime, they did an assessment of the roof and provided a quotation within days for the replacement of the roof. Once the quotation was approved, Watertite Roofing promptly began to replace the roof the following day. The foreman on site for Watertite Roofing was considerate of intrusion to the businesses and their clients. The site foreman was approachable and made changes requested by the landlord. The work was completed in four days and before the next rainfall. Communication with the head office was always pleasant and frequent updates were provided every several days of work progress by the Operations Manager/Estimator. I was pleased with the quick response and the professional manner in which the work was completed ahead of time.
