Roofers in Ville Saint-Laurent
Warehouses and large-surface commercial buildings
Your flat roofer in Ville Saint-Laurent
Responsible for a commercial or industrial building in Ville Saint-Laurent? Clinique de la Toiture FCA has worked exclusively on flat roofs since 1996.
Saint-Laurent holds one of the largest industrial and commercial building stocks on the island. Warehouses, plants, distribution centres, office buildings: large roof areas, often loaded with mechanical equipment. On this kind of building the roof is not a cosmetic line item. It is what protects the inventory, the equipment and the continuity of operations.
What makes a large roof fail
- Mechanical penetrations. Ventilation units, ducts, anchors, supports: every pass-through is a weak point, and most leaks start there.
- Undersized drainage. On 40,000 square feet, heavy rain is a considerable volume. A blocked drain becomes a structural load.
- Maintenance traffic. Technicians going up to the units always walk the same path and wear the membrane locally.
- Stacked repairs. Ten years of patches ends up costing more than a planned replacement.
Insulation and R-value
On a heated warehouse the roof accounts for a large share of thermal loss. A re-roofing is the only moment when insulation can be upgraded at a reasonable cost, since the membrane is already off. We always price the option of adding insulation, with the target R-value.
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. Height, crane access, the number of units to work around and any insulation upgrade move the number more than square footage alone. We never give a firm price without going up on the roof first.
