Dear Homeowner,
My name is Orest Smal, I have been working in the cedar roofing industry for more than 15 years. In 2008 I started my own company, Emerald Cedar Contracting, and ever since, it has been our goal to ensure superior quality, beautiful roofs for all our clients.
To ensure this quality I have handpicked a few professionals, and these professionals along with myself are the ones that actually work on the roof. Each of us has been certified with Fall Arrest, WSIB, and the appropriate amount of insurance to ensure no liability for the homeowner. Emerald Cedar does not subcontract out because we take pride in our work and want to make sure everything is done right.
Although we specialize in cedar roofing over the past couple of years we have begun to take on projects such as Standing Seam Metal/Copper roofs, EnviroShake and Slate roofing. If this is something that you would be interested in we would be more than happy to provide you with a quote.
All of our roof installations come with a 10-year formal warranty.
"Working with Orest and the Emerald Cedar team was a wonderful experience for my family. Our cedar roof was fully restored to it¹s original beauty and they completed the project on time and on budget. Their professionalism, attention to detail and craftsmanship was top notch. I would definitely recommend Emerald Cedar to anybody considering a cedar roof for their home or recreational property."
"Orest (the owner of Emerald Cedar) did a terrific job re-roofing our cedar roof in the fall of 2013. I obtained a number of quotes before deciding on Orest. He was the only roofing company where the person who quoted the job also performed it. Orest and his team performed the job on time and as quoted. Orest is very experienced and is well regarded within the cedar roof trade and with residential clients. He is always professional and pleasant. I highly recommend Orest and Emerald Cedar."
"Orest and his very pleasant and professional crew did an excellent job replacing our cedar shingle roof. The care taken is seldom seen in workmen today. He even returned the first lot of shingles because he felt they were too thin. We highly recommend him and as a bonus his price was highly competitive."
"Our 150 year old historic farmhouse needed a new cedar roof. Orest and his team did an excellent job and were aware of and sensitive to the unique requirements of working on a historic building. The high quality of their materials and their professional skill met or exceeded the specifications established by the local preservation board. We would recommend Emerald Cedar to the owners of any historic building and certainly a property designated under the Heritage Act."
