Commercial Roofing in Winnipeg, MB
We do commercial roofing on apartment blocks, care homes, group homes, and similar sloped commercial buildings, work that needs the discipline of commercial scheduling and the craft of residential roofing.
We do commercial roofing on apartment blocks, care homes, group homes, condominium buildings, and similar mid-size sloped commercial buildings. These properties need a contractor who understands occupied buildings (tenants, residents, staff schedules), can work around active operations without disrupting them, and brings the same craft to a 16-unit building that we’d bring to a single-family home. We’ve done commercial work across Winnipeg and into surrounding towns including Lorette and Steinbach since 2011.
How Do We Handle Commercial Roofing?
Commercial jobs need more upfront planning than residential. We start with a site assessment that covers the roofing scope, but also tenant or resident notification timelines, access logistics, equipment staging, and any safety protocols specific to the building (especially important for care homes and group homes).
The scheduling matters more than the residential side. We coordinate with the property manager or owner to pick days that work around tenant routines, deliveries, and any operational requirements. For care home and group home work, that often means starting later in the day to avoid morning routines, or breaking the job into sections to keep noisy work away from specific wings on specific days.
The roofing work itself uses the same materials and standards as our residential work, scaled up. For apartment blocks with pitched roofs, that’s CertainTeed Landmark shingles installed using our documented 10-step process. For flat or low-slope sections (common on care homes and 1960s-70s apartment blocks), it’s Flintlastic modified bitumen, the same system we use on residential flat sections, just at larger scale.
Cleanup matters more on commercial work. A loose nail in a residential driveway is a problem. A loose nail in an apartment building parking lot is a small disaster waiting to happen. We do thorough magnetic sweeps of all surrounding parking areas, walkways, and grounds at the end of each work day, not just at the end of the job.
Commercial Buildings We Work On
Apartment blocks, care homes and group homes, condominium buildings, small office buildings with residential-style construction, and similar mid-size sloped commercial properties. We don’t take on industrial work, big-box retail, or warehouse-scale flat roofs.
Apartment Blocks
Our most common commercial work. Walk-up apartment buildings with pitched roofs, mid-rise apartments with flat or combination roof systems, and townhouse complexes with multiple connected pitched sections. We coordinate with the property manager and handle tenant communication for noise and access.
Care Homes and Group Homes
Sensitive work environments where minimizing disruption to residents is a hard requirement. We adjust schedules around resident routines, brief our crews on appropriate behaviour, and keep the site as quiet as roofing allows.
Condominiums
Multi-unit ownership means more stakeholders to coordinate with, typically the property management company plus a condo board. We attend board meetings as needed during the planning phase and provide the documentation condo boards require for major work approval.

Commercial Roofing Questions
Do you work around tenants and residents during the project?
Yes. Apartment block and care home work always involves coordinating with the property manager on tenant notifications, work hours, and access. We’ll provide the notification timing and content you need to give residents, and we’ll work within the schedule constraints the building requires.
Do you offer continuing maintenance contracts?
For commercial properties, we can structure continuing maintenance arrangements: annual inspections, snow removal contracts for flat-roof buildings, and priority response for property managers we work with regularly. Ask during the initial conversation if that’s something you need.
How does the bidding process work for commercial?
For straightforward jobs we provide a written quote within 72 hours of the site assessment, the same as our residential turnaround. For larger or more complex projects requiring formal RFP responses, the timeline extends but we work to whatever deadline the property manager sets.
