A leak, shingles torn off by the wind, a roof at the end of its 20 years, or too much snow on a plex’s flat roof: roof area, pitch, deck condition, the layers to remove and access make the difference between two quotes.

The two big guides disagree on a shingle bungalow: about $7,000 in one, $11,000–22,000 in the other (updated October 30, 2026). The gap is mostly what each includes: several layers torn off, deck boards replaced, ice-and-water membrane, ventilation. Compare quotes item by item.

Flat roofs in Montréal
Replacing a flat or low-slope roof in Montréal usually needs a permit, with exceptions by borough. Approved materials and reflectance requirements also vary. Select your borough on the City’s page before choosing a covering. Minor repairs and maintenance are generally exempt. The City’s RénoPlex program pays $30/m² to redo a pitched roof, $70/m² for a white membrane and $100/m² for a green roof.
Roof snow removal
The RBQ lists the signs of an overloaded roof: cracks on interior walls, doors that stick, unusual creaking, a sagging ceiling. It recommends a specialized company so a flat roof’s membrane isn’t damaged. Snow and ice removal need no RBQ licence.
