Don’t be scammed
Beach residents warned of potential roofing scammer in area
Beach residents are being reminded to be wary on ongoing roofing and renovation scams in the area.
East Toronto residents are reminded to be aware of scams involving people claiming to be roofers looking to do work.
A local and legitimate roofing company, Toronto Roofing Industries Ltd., let Beach Metro Community News know this week that they had heard from a number of area residents who said they had been approached recently by people trying to conduct roofing scams along Kingswood Road.
“We had two phone calls right after another (on Wednesday, Aug. 13) that a man in his 30s wearing a vest with reflector tape on it and driving a black truck has knocked on doors on Kingswood Road saying they have shingles missing and to call his ‘partner’. Within the last two weeks we’ve had customers calling saying they’ve been scammed and this so-called roofer has actually removed shingles from their roof,” said Toronto Roofing’s note to Beach Metro Community News.
Tim Mulroy of Toronto Roofing said the person trying to scam residents is using scare tactics to try and get people to agree to unnecessary work on their roofs. “Don’t react to what they say and do not let them on your roof or property,” he said of the scammers.
Toronto police are aware of the situation and in the past have warned residents to be wary of those who approach their homes offering unsolicited roofing services.
As part of an earlier news release, Toronto police said residents should consider the following safety tips:
- Be wary of any unsolicited persons offering a service, such as roofing repairs
- Do not be rushed into making a decision
- Look for paperwork with company letterhead, such as contracts
- Contact the alleged company by phone to ensure the person is employed by them
- Do not provide a large down payment
- Be wary of unsolicited contractors going door to door, especially those using pressure tactics and demanding advance payment in cash
- Avoid impulse decisions to hire a contractor
- Do your research
- There is no obligation to speak to a salesperson soliciting at your door
- Remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is

Grateful
We are grateful to Toronto Roofing Industries for coming to fix our roof yesterday. We were worried about the next rain coming along getting into the house through the area where the tiles had been removed.
Good advice
Thank you for sending your guys. They did a great job and gave really good advice.
Very pleased
Thanks for your recent work on my house. I was very pleased with the speed and cleanliness your team got the job done in. The gutters look great, I can’t imagine anything starting to grow in there again!
Recommended by a friend
This roofing company was recommended by a friend. I checked with several other companies and am glad that I decided on Toronto Roofing Industries. They answered my questions, sent pictures when I requested and all done immediately. They inspected the roof and did not push, but informed me what was needed if I chose. They finished the section of the roof in one day, and thoroughly cleaned up after themselves. I would certainly recommend them, should any of my friends ask.
On time
Thank you for completing the roofing on time and cleaning up afterwards. They picked up the bin the same day, which was great.
Referrals are the best source of business.
When good service and work is done, it should be acknowledged and recognized. Referrals are the best source of business. Again, many thanks to you and Tim and putting my Mum’s roof right again.
You will be fortunate
As far as Toronto Roofing is concerned, we have used this company several times over the years and if they were not great we would have used them only the once.
Tim and his team are great to work with. They do what they say they are going to do at the price they say they are going to do it for. No surprises, which is great for a home owner.
Tim’s team show up on time and work very hard to complete any task we asked of them.
They are very thoughtful of our neighbours and protect their property during the project.
The team is very quick to keep the worksite clean which is a great service when you are living in the project.
If a problem should arise it is corrected quickly and the homeowner is advised right away.
Our project is completed for now but we know if something should come up Tim and his team will be there to help us out.
You will be fortunate to have this team work on your project.
Positive Experience
Thank you so much for the work you did on my roof. I appreciate your and your team’s integrity (Riley and Mat). You found the problem of the leak and did not hesitate to amend the previous estimate, which shortened the contract from a 2 day job to just 1 day and significantly lowered the cost of fixing the problem.
The team worked all day, in the sun and at the end spent time to fix all lose ends around the dormer: caulking around the light fixtures and electrical outlet, Secured the flashing and patched up all openings where bees or squirrels might like to build their home.
They also cleaned up and left the roof and deck spotless.
Such a joy to receive great service from skilled and happy workers .
Without hesitation, I will recommend you to my neighbours and friends.
Thank you so much Tim, for this positive experience.
