What’s Damaging Your Roof?

Why Ontario Weather is So Hard on Your Roof

Ontario’s Weather is Roof Enemy #1

Living in Windsor-Essex County means your roof takes a beating all year long:

  • Freeze-thaw cycles: When snow melts and refreezes, it can create ice dams that back water up under your shingles
  • Blazing summer sun: Those hot July days literally bake your shingles, making them brittle
  • Lake effect storms: Strong winds off the Great Lakes can rip shingles right off
  • Humidity and rain: Perfect conditions for moss and algae to grow
  • Wild temperature swings: From -20°C in winter to +35°C in summer – that’s tough on any roof!

The result? Most roofs in our area only last 15-25 years instead of the 20-30 years you’d get in easier climates.

What Exactly is Roof Rejuvenation?

Think of it as Anti-Aging Cream for Your Roof

Here’s the simple truth: as your roof ages, the oils in your shingles dry out – kind of like how your skin gets dry and cracked as you age. When that happens, your shingles become brittle and start to crack.

Roof rejuvenation is like giving your shingles a drink of water. We spray a plant-based treatment (mostly made from soybeans – yes, really!) that soaks deep into your shingles and replaces those lost oils. Your shingles become flexible again, the little granules stick better, and your whole roof becomes more resistant to wind, hail, and weather damage.

The best part? This isn’t some new, untested idea. Universities have studied it, thousands of homeowners have used it, and it’s even certified by the USDA as an environmentally friendly product.

The Money Side: Why This Makes Financial Sense

What You’ll Actually Pay Each Year (CAD)

Your Wallet Will Thank You

Let’s talk about the elephant in the room: money. A new roof in Windsor-Essex County will cost you anywhere from $25,000 to $40,000. That’s a lot of money! Roof rejuvenation? You’re looking at $3,000 to $8,000, and you can get your roof treated 2-3 times for what one replacement would cost.

But here’s where it gets even better – rejuvenating your roof can actually lower your cooling bills by 7-15% during those hot Ontario summers. Why?

Good for Your Wallet AND the Planet

Here’s something to feel good about: every time someone chooses roof rejuvenation instead of replacement, we’re keeping tons of old shingles out of Canadian landfills. And since the treatment is made mostly from plants (not petroleum), you’re making an environmentally friendly choice that still protects your biggest investment – your home.

How Much Roofing Waste We Can Prevent

Is Roof Rejuvenation Right for Your Home?

The Sweet Spot: 8-15 Year Old Roofs

Roof rejuvenation works best when your shingles are 8-15 years old – old enough to benefit from the treatment, but not so old that they’re falling apart. We can only do the treatment when it’s above 2°C outside, so spring and fall are perfect times in Ontario.

What to Expect from the Process

When you call Cleroux Roofing, here’s what happens: First, they’ll come take a good look at your roof to make sure it’s a good candidate. If it is, they’ll clean off any moss or debris, fix any small problems, and then apply the treatment using special equipment. The whole process takes just a few hours, and your roof will be protected within three days.

For Windsor-Essex County homeowners, Cleroux Roofing is your only local option for this proven technology. With their family-owned approach and 30 years of local experience, they know exactly how to help Windsor-Essex homeowners get the most life out of their roofs without breaking the bank.

The Bottom Line

Roof rejuvenation isn’t just a fancy new trend – it’s a smart way to get more years out of your roof without spending a fortune. For homeowners in Windsor-Essex County, where the weather can be particularly tough on roofs, this technology offers a real solution.

Cleroux Roofing brings together three important things: proven technology that actually works, a family business you can trust, and 30 years of experience dealing with Ontario weather. Whether you’re trying to squeeze a few more years out of your current roof or just want to be smart about maintaining your home’s biggest investment, roof rejuvenation is worth considering.

The math is simple: spend a little now to save a lot later, help the environment, and keep your home protected. That’s what we call a win-win-win.
