Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Roofing Services

Can a metal roof be installed in winter in Gatineau?

Yes. Unlike some roofing materials that require warm temperatures for proper adhesion, metal roofing can be installed year-round including during Quebec winters. This makes it an ideal option when emergency roof replacement is needed during cold months.

A properly installed metal roof in Quebec can last 50 years or more. Metal roofs from Cossette use pre-painted galvanized steel from suppliers like Agway Metals, Ideal Roofing, and Vicwest. Unlike shingles, metal does not rot, rust, crack, or lose granules. It is considered a permanent roofing solution.

Modern metal roofing installed over solid decking and with proper underlayment is not significantly louder than shingles during rain. The solid plywood deck and insulation beneath the metal absorb most sound. Cossette installs metal roofing over proper substrate to minimize noise.

Metal roofing has a higher upfront cost than asphalt shingles but a significantly longer lifespan. While a shingle roof may need replacement every 25–30 years, a metal roof typically never needs replacement. Over the life of the building, metal often costs less. Cossette provides free estimates for both options so you can compare.
