Roofers in Saint-Léonard
Duplexes, triplexes and flat-roof buildings
Your flat roofer in Saint-Léonard
Looking for a roofer in Saint-Léonard for a duplex, a triplex or a flat-roof building? Clinique de la Toiture FCA has worked exclusively on flat roofs since 1996.
Saint-Léonard was built fast and over a short period. A large share of the borough’s duplexes and triplexes dates from the 1960s and 1970s. That creates a particular situation: thousands of roofs reach end of life at roughly the same time.
If your building is from that generation and the membrane has never been redone, it is probably on its second or third life.
Signs a roof from that era is done
- Repairs come back every year in the same spot
- The membrane is cracked at the surface or the granules are gone
- The parapet shows cracks and the flashing is lifting
- A stain appears on the top-floor ceiling
- The original drain is too small for today’s downpours
One of these alone does not mean a full replacement. Three or four together does.
Repair or replace
On a rental property the question is financial as much as technical. A targeted repair is cheap and buys time when the membrane is broadly sound. But if the insulation under it is wet, every repair only defers the bill while moisture keeps working. We check the insulation before recommending either.
White membrane is required for a major repair
As in most Montreal boroughs, a major flat roof repair must use a white material to limit heat islands. That is a permit constraint, not a preference.
- No open flame on the roof. TPO is heat-welded with a hot-air iron, no torch and no toxic fumes.
- 20 to 25 years of service life in Quebec, with a 20-year manufacturer warranty.
- Reflective white surface that cuts summer cooling load.
- Every seam is hot-air welded, giving continuous watertightness.
The other membranes we service
Elastomeric membrane
A granule-surfaced two-ply membrane installed with a torch, very common on the existing stock. It is a separate niche, served by other companies. We repair and maintain it.
Asphalt and gravel
A sturdy multi-layer system, less and less installed. It lasts 15 to 20 years and needs more maintenance.
EPDM
A darker single-ply membrane, very durable, but it absorbs heat instead of reflecting it.
In addition, Clinique de la toiture FCA’s promise is support from A to Z in your project. As experienced roofers, we want to advise our new clients in Terrebonne as best we can on what constitutes a successful roof renovation, and offer new roofing system options for your roof.
We are not in the business of advising a roof replacement when a repair is possible.
On the other hand, in the event that the complete renovation proves to be inevitable, we have a policy of transparency at all times as to the size and the cost of your project.

What it costs
Count on $11 to $16 per square foot for a TPO roof, materials and labour. On a triplex, back-stair access and the number of layers to strip influence the price. We never give a firm price without going up on the roof first.
