Roofing in New Westminster.
New Westminster is the oldest city in the region, and its roofs prove it. Queens Park alone is a heritage conservation area full of century-old homes with steep, complicated rooflines that have to be matched to the character of the street. Innovation Roofing does that work — cedar and cedar-look asphalt matched to a heritage roofline, plus the everyday asphalt and flat-roof work on the rest of the city's stock. Named project manager on every job, and the documentation to satisfy a heritage review.

What Innovation Roofing Knows About Roofs in New Westminster.
New Westminster carries the densest concentration of heritage housing the Innovation Roofing crew works on, centred on the Queens Park Heritage Conservation Area where design controls affect what a roof can look like from the street. Those century-old homes have steep, multi-gable rooflines with a lot of flashing and detail, and the material usually needs to read as period-appropriate — cedar shake or a cedar-look architectural asphalt matched to the neighbours. Sapperton and the slopes toward the Fraser mix older homes with infill, and the river-facing exposure adds wind-driven rain to the equation. The city's older flat-roofed additions and garages want two-ply SBS torch-on rather than a tired patch. Because so much of the stock is old, deck condition under the existing roof is a real unknown until the tear-off — we check every plane and price any rot repair before we close it back in. Every install is completed by a WorkSafeBC registered crew carrying $5M commercial general liability, backed by a written 10-year workmanship warranty and lifetime materials coverage..

Frequently asked
What New Westminster Homeowners Ask Before They Sign.
Yes, and we're used to the constraints. The material and the roofline usually have to match the character of the street. We spec to the heritage guidelines before we quote and give you paperwork that satisfies the review, so you're not fighting City Hall halfway through.
Fair. On old homes the deck is the unknown until we tear off. We check every plane, and if we find rot or old plank sheathing that won't hold, we show you and price the repair before we close it back in. No surprises added to the invoice.
Not always, but the look usually has to match. Where cedar isn't required we can run a cedar-look architectural asphalt that reads right from the street at a lower cost and less maintenance. We'll tell you what the guidelines actually require.
