Repair visits belong on the Sahali repair page. This page is the tear-off. The hill's background, Upper and Lower associations, and the cooperative townhouses are on the hub. A strata roof needs the council's process before a dumpster arrives. Book the roofer only after you know who may sign.
Class A, ventilation, and the permit line
FireSmart BC wants a Class A covering and underlayment, and it rules out wood shingles and shakes. Beside Kenna Cartwright that is not an abstract preference. Embers and needles are already in the gutters. A replacement that puts new shakes back up has ignored the checklist on purpose. Rated asphalt is allowed. Metal is allowed if the ridges are sealed and the snow has somewhere safe to land. Sliding snow onto a Sahali entry is a layout failure. Guards are a question for the quote, not a decoration.
The north-facing character of the slope south of downtown means one plane may stay cold. When the deck is opened, look at intake and exhaust ventilation before the new covering goes down. A tight new roof over a wet attic repeats the ice problem. Bulletin 23-01 is the permit test: same dead load and same slope, the bulletin says no building permit for the reroof; a jump in dead load, such as shakes to shingles in the bulletin's own example, or new skylights, pulls the job into a permit. Read it: bulletin 23-01.
Upper hill and lower hill are different tear-off days
Upper Sahali often means a steeper driveway and a colder back slope. Lower Sahali often means a rental or a house nearer the campus corridor, where permission and parking matter as much as the shingle. Say which, and say whether a strata has to approve the dumpster. The higher design snow pressure applies to new structural work on this hill. It is not a price and it is not a reason to skip the deck. No Sahali dollar figure is printed here.
Call (236) 836-0303 with Upper or Lower, house or townhouse, and whether shakes are still on the roof.
