We were able to find Smart Home Building Systems because they were installing a metal roof right across the road from our home. After meeting with Joe Bader we came to realize that asphalt roofing may be the best value in our situation as we will be moving in a few years. Fortunately, the crew was able to start right away and Corey and Jeremy were real workers. They worked from sun up to sun down. Our property is located right on the waterfront and the wind was 60 KMH one day and they worked in the rain and they insisted on working right on through. They were forced to remove and replace the satellite dish in the exact same spot, and it worked without readjusting. The clean up was exceptional, they swept the deck and vacuumed out the eavestroughs and all. We were very happy with the overall experience and would confidently recommend this company to anybody.

Hi, I had met Joe Bader with Smart Homes at the trade show in Fort Sask. I was interested in getting a new roof for my log home as mine was leaking because of ice damming. After many inquires they were the only ones that followed up shortly after the show. As it happened the modifications that I wanted to happen were within their abilities so I hired them to remove the old metal roof. The modifications were completed and the new roof installed with the modifications (modifications included a hidden fastener standing seam roof and also added a solar tube, ice and water shield and synthetic underlay). After a few a hours of challenges we were able to sort it out and able to get project completed in a reasonably good time. We later had Smart Homes install a new asphalt roof on my daughters house in Fort Sask. Smart Homes were hired to remove the old membrane and install new plywood sheathing and roofing material and vented roof ridge caps. We were thankful for the attention to detail in cleaning up. This was greatly appreciated. Thanks. Smart Homes, job well done.

garage and shop. We chose a product by DaVinci Roofscapes that creates the look of slate but is meant to perform better in our winter climates. It took longer than was initially anticipated but during this time Joe struggled with one of the crews providing the quality he, and us, expected and a second crew was brought in to complete the job. Even so, the slope and size of the roof coupled with the complexity of installing these shingles (compared to asphalt shingles) made a quick installation impossible. After all this, I am very happy with the roof. It looks fantastic and people invariably comment on it when visiting. Because of that, we asked Joe to cap with aluminum our existing wood window trims, replace the decorative shingles in the gables, and recreate our wooden shutters to totally finish our new look. He found exactly what I was looking for and we went forward. The shingle installation went according to plan and was installed well and in a timely fashion. The capping we had some difficulty with the contractor who subcontracted out to another couple of guys and this complicated the completion due to a previous back injury of one of the guys, but I kept Joe informed of the progress and he in turn kept in touch with the contractor he had hired initially. After a few days, the original contractor stepped up to complete the job and all was well. J oe has been an excellent and dedicated champion of quality, ensuring his client’s needs are met and sincerely listening to every concern and question. He does make you feel that you are his only customer or his best customer and that goes a long way, especially during a tough and long renovation such as this. Now that it’s all over, I am very satisfied with the finished look and would even go so far as to say I’d do it again if I had another house (but I don’t, phew!)

When my family purchased our home in July of 2014 we knew that we were purchasing our “forever home”, it would be the place that we raise our family. However, like most 25 year old homes it wasn’t without some major concerns. The biggest question mark was of course the roof; the existing roof was in disrepair and was in dire need of replacement. In researching a roof replacement we came across the Edco “Generation” shake roofing product and engaged. The shake look met the strict architectural requirements in our communities Home Owners Association while also enhancing the look of our home. Despite a challenging installation Joe Bader of Smart Home Building Systems stuck the course and completed the job. The final product looks great and we now have our “Forever roof “to match our “forever home”.

Smart Home Building Systems and Joe Bader were recommended to us by another happy customer. We were looking for a long term option to replace the asphalt shingles on our house and detached garage. After discussing various options with Joe, we went with the ArrowLine slate-look steel roof manufactured by EDCO. Joe is personable and knowledgeable. He came to site on a frequent basis to assess the quality of work and progress, and was always available by phone if we had any questions. He makes you feel like you are his best customer and your project is his top priority. His quote was accurate and there were no extra costs. The installers, Stewart and Cory, did an awesome job! They were very conscientious of their work, attending to every detail. They showed up on time and worked hard even on days when the temperature was over 30 degrees Celsius. The sheeting, Titanium wrap and roofing was installed in sequence in order that the house was watertight at the end of each day so you didn’t have to worry about rain storms overnight. They worked through the weekend and on the statutory holiday to keep the project on schedule. They finished every day making sure tools and supplies were put away and debris was picked up. Friends, family and neighbours have all admired the final product. We would recommend Smart Home Building Systems to anyone looking for a new roof, and plan to use them for future projects.

We are completely satisfied with our metal roof. We’ve had it a year and are as happy with it now as we were when we first got it. After looking at the many options available for roofing we decided on this one because of the strength of the metal, the way it is installed and finally the looks. We have stood many times looking at the roof over the part year and know we are going to love looking at it for the next 50 years. The entire family have enjoyed listening and watching the snow slide of the roof. We look forward to a winter when there is enough snow to slide in the middle of the winter. We highly recommend this roof to anyone looking for a stylish long term roof.
