Hire a Roofer in Toronto & the GTA
A roof problem announces itself as a ceiling stain, a drip, or shingles in the eavestrough — usually during the worst weather of the season. BuildBridge connects Toronto and GTA homeowners with verified local roofers for repairs, replacements, and everything overhead, quoted on your actual roof.
Post the job with photos — from the ground is fine, nobody expects you on the roof — plus your home's size and what you've noticed. Roofers who serve your area respond with real numbers, and you compare them knowing every quote describes the same roof.
How It Works
1. Post your job — free
Describe the work in a couple of minutes. Add photos, your budget range, and your postal code — roofers quote far more accurately when they can see the job, and your contact details stay private until you choose who to talk to.
2. Local roofers send you quotes
We notify verified roofers who serve your part of Toronto or the GTA. Trades on BuildBridge are licence- and insurance-checked, and pros who submit their licence, WSIB, and insurance details carry the Verified badge.
3. Compare, chat, and hire
Line the quotes up side by side, message pros directly in the platform, check reviews, and hire the one that fits. You're never obligated to hire anyone — the job post costs you nothing either way.

Repairs Now, Replacement on Schedule
Most roofing posts are repairs: leaks, flashing failures, storm damage, and the GTA specialty — ice dam damage after a freeze-thaw cycle. Full replacements are the bigger conversation: material (architectural shingle vs. metal), ventilation, and whether the decking underneath is sound. A trustworthy roofer quotes repair and replacement as separate options with honest remaining-life estimates, not replacement-only pressure. Ask every roofer about workmanship warranty length and WSIB coverage — roof work is where both matter most.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to hire a roofer through BuildBridge?
Posting and quotes are free. You pay only the roofer you hire — small repairs in the GTA start around $300–$600, while full replacements are quoted per roof after measurement and inspection.
My roof is leaking right now. What should I post?
Post it as urgent with photos of the stain or drip location inside the house. Many GTA roofers offer temporary tarping or emergency patching to stop the damage, then quote the permanent repair once things are dry and safe to inspect.
How do roofers quote without seeing the roof up close?
Your post starts the conversation — photos, home size, and the visible problem. For replacements and larger repairs, shortlisted roofers will typically do a quick on-site or ladder inspection before firming the quote. That inspection should be free; be wary of anyone charging for it.
What should I check before hiring a roofer?
WSIB coverage and liability insurance are non-negotiable for work at height. BuildBridge checks both, and documented pros carry the Verified badge. Also confirm the workmanship warranty in writing — material warranties come from the manufacturer, but leaks usually trace back to installation.
