Ottawa roofs face a normal daily average of −10.0°C in January, 21.2°C in July, and 929.8 mm of annual precipitation, including 231.9 cm of snow. That makes drainage and snow-load maintenance consequential when arranging roof cleaning or a minor repair. Ottawa’s housing stock also includes 115,070 occupied private dwellings built from 1961 to 1980, while single-detached houses account for 169,760 dwellings. Those conditions make the roof material, moss buildup, roof size, pitch, and safe access important details to assess.

Late summer through September is the busiest period for roof cleaning and repair, so spring or early summer may offer more availability. In The Glebe, Westboro, and Centretown, confirm how height, access, fall protection, and runoff control affect the planned work. Cleaning-only work is generally unlicensed, while repairs should be handled by an insured roofing contractor licensed where required. Ottawa’s Building Code Services should be consulted when work may be a structural repair requiring a municipal building permit.
