Belleville Roofing
Peak Roofing Installation Season 2026

The roofing category in the Peak edition is open for one partner. The case for why now, what it is, and what it costs in time to decide.

The ask
A 20-minute conversation to claim exclusive content partnership. Monthly print plus matched digital, capturing the active 8-week buyer window for Roofing across Bay of Quinte.
Before the May 15 cutoff
I. Why now three reasons, one window
i.

New construction is accelerating.

Canada's housing starts SAAR reached 235,852 units in March 2026. Every new build needs a roof, and every roofer's calendar gets tighter through summer.

ii.

The booking window opens before summer.

Planned replacements book eight weeks ahead of dry-weather months. Contractor calendars are already filling for summer. Be present while homeowners compare.

Booking window · 8-week lead time
iii.

Storm damage is compounding the backlog.

Canadian insurers paid $9.4 billion in 2024 and $2.4 billion in 2025. Roofs that survived winter are aging faster under heavier loads.
