What Does it Mean to be “Canadian Made”?
When we say Canadian-made, we mean it! Roof Pros Plus proudly sources and installs metal roofs from trusted Canadian suppliers and manufactures, such as Armadura Metal Roof Manufacture located right in your back yard! This not only ensures exceptional quality and durability but also keeps costs lower than most, supports local businesses, and the Canadian economy. Choosing Canadian-made metal roofing means choosing a product designed specifically for the unique demands of our climate. For example, Roof Pros Plus is proud to install made in Ontario roofing, that go above and beyond to test the products capability to handle our heavy snowfall winters, strong winds, and very rainy springs. Fully providing made in Ontario for Ontario products and services.
Reason #1: Superior Durability and Weather Resistance
Canadian winters can be unforgiving, with heavy snow, ice, and freezing temperatures. Our steel roofs are designed to handle it all, providing a strong barrier against the elements while minimizing the risk of leaks and damage. For instance, Roof Pros Plus metal roofing system undergoes the soul-crushing environmental testing facility at Underwriters Laboratory in Chicago UL’s process is designed to destroy roofing panels within a predetermined amount of time. Roof Pros Plus metal roofs didn’t just survive the tests; they surpassed the highest standards possible. Our roofs are 120 mph wind rated, resistant to exterior fires and smothers interior fires, as well as resistant of up to 2 inch hail. Unlike traditional roofing materials such as asphalt or wood, metal roofing won’t warp, crack, or rot over time. This ensures a longer lifespan and fewer costly repairs. Not only does it come with a 50 year non pro rated warranty, our roofing features advanced coatings that enhance weather resistance and protect against UV damage, rust, and fading. This means your roof will look great and perform well for decades.
Reason #2: Energy Efficiency and Cost Savings
Unlike traditional roofing materials that absorb and trap heat, Roof Pros plus metal roofs feature reflective coatings that reduce heat absorption. For example, even our black eclipse colour reflects 22% heat. This helps keep homes cooler in the summer, lowering air conditioning costs and improving indoor comfort. This works in tandem, and with proper insulation our metal roofs help maintain warmth during the winter months. This helps reduce heating costs and ensures energy efficiency year-round. For instance, while asphalt roofs absorb water and upholds snow on the roof, our Canadian made metal roofing system is designed to expel water and shed snow, keeping roofs lighter. This is why snow guards are added to heavy traffic areas, to allow the snow to break up and fall in smaller sections rather than larger sheets. While the initial investment in a steel roof may be higher, Roof Pros Plus products offer superior longevity and minimal maintenance needs, translating to significant savings over the years. Homeowners can enjoy decades of reliable protection without frequent replacements or costly repairs. Should homeowners ever choose to sell their house, the warranty is fully transferable and has been shown to increase resale value by up to 6%.
Reason #3: Eco-Friendliness and Sustainability
Sustainability is at the core of Roof Pros Plus’s roofing solutions. Our steel roofs are made from clean recycled materials and are fully recyclable at the end of their lifespan, reducing environmental impact and promoting a greener future. All metal products made in Canada are fully recycled as part of the green initiative, as apposed to asphalt where majority ends up in landfill sites. While some asphalt is recycled for asphalt roofing, it does negatively impact the longevity and quality of the roof, whereas that is not an issue for metal. In addition, traditional roofing materials like asphalt shingles need replacing every 15-20 years, contributing to even greater landfill waste. Roof Pros Plus metal roofs come with a 50 year warranty, greatly reducing the frequency of replacements and minimizing waste, and can be installed directly over old asphalt roofs, reducing waste and cost that much more. Armadura metal roof manufacture warranty warranties our roof with up to 2 layers of asphalt underneath. Homeowners investing in eco-friendly roofing solutions like those from Roof Pros Plus may qualify for government rebates and incentives, making the switch to steel roofing an even smarter financial decision.
Reason #4: Low Maintenance and Longevity

Our metal is made to withstand the elements without requiring frequent repairs or upkeep, saving homeowners time and money. Should anything ever happen, homeowners can feel comforted knowing there is a strong warranty in place to support. Steel roofing naturally resists mold, mildew, and pests, eliminating common issues that can affect traditional roofing materials. This ensures a cleaner, healthier home environment. For example, we often have homeowners choosing our roof as they are tired of having squirrels moving into their attic, birds landing on their roof, or are tired of having to shovel off their roof in the winter as it can be very dangerous. Roof Pros Plus offers a variety of modern styles and colours, including popular options like Stone Grey and Ember.
