Why roof inspection works differently in Mississauga
What makes roof inspection in Mississauga unusual is not the technique, it is the age spread of the housing: a single route can cover 1910 brick and 2019 factory-built venting.
Salt spray and road grit carried by winter wind accelerate corrosion on exterior metal components far faster in Peel than the manufacturer's rating assumes.
Air-sealing and window upgrades have made Mississauga homes far tighter than they were designed to be, and a tight house starves a natural-draft appliance of the make-up air it needs.
Across Meadowvale, Fairview Meadows, Central Parkway, Cooksville and Fairview, the housing stock changes street by street, and the correct method changes with it. A century home with a soft-brick stack does not get the same treatment as a 2010 build with a factory-built vent — using one method on both is how systems get damaged.
If you live anywhere near Square One, the practical takeaway is that a roof inspection visit should start with an assessment, not a tool. Any crew that begins work before telling you what they found is guessing on your behalf.
