A roof leak rarely starts where it shows up on the ceiling. Water travels along rafters, under shingles, and through flashing before it drips somewhere visible. Guns N' Hoses locates the actual source — not just the symptom — and fixes it in a way that holds. Every repair comes with a written scope and a workmanship guarantee.

What We Fix

Leak Detection

We find exactly where water is entering — not just where it's showing up inside.

Shingle Repair & Replacement

Missing, cracked, or wind-lifted shingles repaired or replaced to match existing materials.

Flashing Repair

Chimney, skylight, valley, and wall flashing — the most common source of Ottawa roof leaks.

Ice Dam Damage

Repairs to sheathing, insulation, and roofing materials damaged by ice dam water intrusion.

Storm Damage

Wind and hail damage assessed and repaired. We document damage thoroughly for insurance purposes.

Skylight Sealing

Leaking or improperly flashed skylights resealed or replaced with correct waterproofing.

Eavestrough & Fascia

Damaged eavestroughs and fascia that are causing water to run back toward the roof edge.

Emergency Tarping

Temporary protection installed same-day to stop active water intrusion while permanent repair is scheduled.

Common Ottawa
Roof Repair Causes

Ice Dam Damage

Ottawa's freeze-thaw cycle creates ice dams at the eaves that force water back under shingles. Most Ottawa roof leaks discovered in spring were caused by ice dams over winter.

Flashing Failures

Freeze-thaw movement works metal flashing loose over time. Chimney, skylight, and wall flashing are the most common entry points for water on Ottawa roofs.

Wind-Lifted Shingles

Ottawa's windstorms regularly lift shingle edges, breaking the seal and exposing the underlayment below.

Aging Sealants

Pipe boot collars, vent flashing, and skylight sealants deteriorate in Ottawa's UV and temperature extremes. They typically need attention every 10–15 years.

Roof Repair Questions —
Ottawa Homeowners Ask Us

How much does a roof repair cost in Ottawa?
Small repairs — a few shingles, a flashing re-seal — typically run $300 to $800. More involved repairs involving multiple problem areas, damaged sheathing, or ice dam remediation can range from $800 to $2,500. We give you a written quote before any work begins so there are no surprises.
Can you find a leak that other roofers couldn't locate?
Yes — this is one of the most common calls we get. Leaks are often misdiagnosed because the entry point and the visible damage are in different places. We trace the water path back to the actual source before doing any repair work.
How quickly can you respond to an emergency in Ottawa?
We aim to respond to all emergency calls within 24 hours. For active leaks causing interior damage, call Vanessa directly at 613-801-8582 — don't fill out the form and wait.
Will my roof need full replacement instead of repair?
We'll tell you honestly during the inspection. If repair is the right answer, we repair it. If the roof has reached the end of its lifespan and repair would be a short-term fix on a failing system, we'll tell you that too — and give you a replacement quote alongside the repair quote so you can make an informed decision.
Do you repair flat roofs in Ottawa?
Yes. Flat roof repairs — membrane splits, pooling water, drain blockages, and seam failures — are included in our repair work. Ottawa's freeze-thaw cycle is particularly hard on flat roof membranes.

What Ottawa Homeowners
Say

“Vanessa and her team did my parents' roof a few months back. She was very quick to respond and communication was great. She had a lot of patience explaining things to my parents as they don't speak English very well.”

— Jenn, South Keys, Ottawa

“I would highly recommend. We had a leak in our roof and Vanessa and her team were able to fix the issue in a timely manner. We will be using her services again.”
