Customer Reviews
"Overall we were happy with McKays, we had them do our roof in May. They were on time and the crew was pleasant and our roof looks good. The only downside is I have literally spent hours picking up roofing nails around our house (lawn, gardens, deck and pool) and our lawn tractor has gotten two flat tires with the roofing nail still in it. I’ve also picked up shingles and shingle bits out of gardens and lawn, and there’s still plastic wrap from one of the shingle bags stuck in our tree that we can’t reach. Overall roof is good but cleanup was subpar, and repairs to our lawn tractor tires has been frustrating."
"The quote given was reasonable, the work was done soon, when they said it would be. Polite friendly staff, both in the office and at our home."
"Very professional business, communication is great. Quality of work is great. Worker’s put in a full day to make sure the job was done . Cleaned up job area. Highly recommend Mckay sheet metal and roofing."

- "We're very pleased with the finished results on our new roof (shingle). Kerry brings a lot of professional knowledge and expertise to projects; we thank him and Jake for the care they showed to our home. Heather and Kevin were highly personable and professional in terms of the administrative aspects of the project, and promptly addressed all of our questions or concerns."
- "Owner/Sales - Kevin McArthur - Being brought up in family businesses as early as I can remember, I have the understanding of “what it takes to be successful in business”; Hard work, Integrity and fairness. I have over 25 years experience in sales & business operations, and have spent a great deal of my career in residential and commercial construction. My commitment to you, the customer, is to provide you with “peace of mind” that you are receiving a high quality roof at a fair value. Manager of Roofing Crews - Kerry Schonauer has been with McKay's for over 25 years. He is a licensed sheet metal worker and has been installing and managing roofing crews in both the commercial and residential sectors.

- "I would like to pass along my sincere thanks for a job well done. Kerry, and the entire team he brought over, were excellent. I work with trades people on a regular basis and I was very impressed with the knowledge, good spirit, and professional approach each of your people showed while they were here working on our little project. To top it all of they didn’t leave any cleanup for me to do, which I was impressed by. Great work!"
- "Just sent an email requesting an estimate for a metal roof for our family home. I liked the website (very professional!) and I have a good vibe about this company. Too many of our neighbors have had negative experiences with other roofing companies. Will update info as things move along! Smiths Falls / Drummond North Elmsley."
