We provide a transparent approach to pricing, but we do not offer a fixed cost per square foot for SBS torch-on membrane repairs. This is because flat roof repair costs are influenced by several site-specific and local variables that must be assessed during a professional inspection.
The final cost for your repair depends on several factors, including:
- Membrane System and Damage Extent: The specific material being repaired and how far the damage has progressed since the initial failure.
- RCABC Standards: We perform repairs to the technical standards of the RCABC Roofing Practices Manual, which governs material and method requirements for the RoofStar Guarantee. Compliance with these province-wide standards impacts both material selection and project scope.
- Local Factors: Repair costs can vary across the Lower Mainland. For example, costs in Vancouver may differ from those in Surrey or Richmond due to differences in supply routes, building heights, roof access challenges, and municipal permit requirements.
- Site Conditions: Issues such as ponding water, wind load requirements, and the need for drainage correction or additional waterproofing layers are factored into the estimate.
Because every project is unique, we recommend that you claim your complimentary roof inspection. We will provide a detailed, itemized quote based on a thorough onsite assessment rather than a generic estimate.
Warranties vary by manufacturer and installation — check specific warranty terms. Estimates and pricing are subject to onsite inspection and may change after assessment. Insurance coverage for roof damage depends on the homeowner’s policy and the cause of damage.
