When a general contractor in Mississauga reached out to The Roof Whisperer for a roofing and skylight installation on a new home addition, we knew proper planning would be essential. After reviewing the roof pitch, we advised that shingles and skylights require a minimum slope of 3/12 to meet manufacturer specifications. Fortunately, the contractor followed our expert recommendation, ensuring both performance and warranty compliance.

Scope of Work – Mississauga Shingle Roof & Skylight Installation

To guarantee a durable and watertight roof system, our team completed the following steps:

• Cleaned the roof surface thoroughly to remove all debris.

• Framed the skylight opening to match Velux manufacturer requirements.

• Installed waterproofing membranes across the entire roof, including ice and water shield plus synthetic underlayment.

• Installed CertainTeed Landmark shingles in the popular Burnt Sienna colour, known for its durability and curb appeal.

• Installed a Velux FCM 4646 skylight with the proper flashing kit for a seamless, leak-free finish.

• Installed and sealed step and counter flashing, ensuring long-term protection against water infiltration.

End Result – A Contractor and Homeowner Built to Last

The result is a beautiful, watertight, and energy-efficient roof with a modern skylight that enhances natural daylight inside the home. Both the contractor and homeowner were delighted with the final outcome, and the property is now protected by a lifetime shingle warranty.
