Run to Failure
You only hear about the roof when it leaks
Whoever's available shows up & patches the spot
Nobody keeps track of what's been fixed
Your roof wears out years before it should
Replacement comes as a surprise + it's expensive

A BETTER WAY TO MANAGE ROOFS
You Manage Buildings. Your Roof Shouldn't Manage You.
Everything else in your portfolio runs on a schedule. HVAC has a service contract. Landscaping shows up Tuesdays. Snow removal starts in November. Roofs are different — they fail when they fail, and the call always comes at the worst possible time.
Videl works the other way around. We inspect every property on a schedule, document what we find, and give you a maintenance plan built around the roof's actual condition — not the last emergency repair.
VIDEL'S Approach
Stop Reacting to Roofing Issues
Most flat roofs in Ontario are managed by accident. A leak appears, a contractor patches it, the invoice gets filed, and everyone moves on until the next leak. Nobody tracks what's failing or why. By the time the roof gives out, it's years earlier than it should have been and nobody can explain where the money went.

Roof is inspected on a set schedule, leak or no leak
Videl shows up + we know your roof's history

Your roof lasts 5 to 10+ years longer
You see problems coming with lots of time to plan
PROPERTIES WE PROTECT
Every Property Type Has a Different Kind of Roof Problem
From retail plazas to 200-unit apartment buildings, we've got you covered (literally).
Retail Plazas
A leak above any tenant is a health code call, a corporate complaint, and a lease problem rolled into one. We service plazas across Ontario where national brands like RBC, Sobeys, and Osmow's lease space.
Apartment Buildings
Tenant complaints don't wait for business hours. We maintain multi-residential roofs to prevent the slow leaks that generate calls, damage units, and erode tenant retention.
Office Buildings
Water intrusion in an office tower cascades across floors and disrupts every tenant in the building. We schedule maintenance and repairs around your tenants' operations.
Industrial Facilities
Large footprints, heavy rooftop equipment, and chemical exposure make industrial roofs the hardest to maintain — and the most expensive to replace. We plan around all of it.
Roofing for Industrial Facilities
Food Processing Plants
Grease exhaust, extra penetrations, and strict ventilation requirements create unique membrane challenges. A failure here doesn't just cause damage — it shuts down production.
Institutional Properties
Community centres and municipal buildings run on tight budgets with board-level approvals. We provide the documentation and phased planning those conversations require.

What will it cost to put all our properties on a preventative maintenance plan?
Our Preventative Roof Maintenance Plans (PRMP) depend on the size of the roof, the system installed, the age of the building, and how many properties you want covered. We don't publish a flat rate because no two portfolios are alike — a single retail plaza and a 12-property mixed portfolio need different inspection schedules and different scopes.
The fastest way to get a real number for your portfolio is to start with a free Roof Condition Report on one or two properties.
Do we have to commit to a long-term maintenance contract?
No. Our PRMP is structured as an annual agreement, and you decide each year whether to renew based on the work we've done and the documentation we've delivered. We don't lock property managers into multi-year commitments because the work should speak for itself.
If you want to start with a single property to see how we operate before adding the rest of your portfolio, that's how most of our property management clients begin.
We already have a roofer we use sometimes. Can you work alongside them, or do we have to switch?
Most property managers come to us with at least one existing relationship, and we have no problem with that. PRMP covers scheduled inspections, documentation, preventative maintenance, and emergency response on the properties you assign to us. You can keep other vendors for the work you already trust them with.
That said, a lot of property managers eventually consolidate with us because having one specialist team across the portfolio cuts down on the back-and-forth — one point of contact, one paper trail, one standard of work.
What happens if you find a major problem on the first inspection?
You get a full Roof Condition Report regardless — photos, findings, severity ratings, and a clear list of what needs to happen now versus what can be planned for later. Nothing gets fixed without your sign-off.
If we find something urgent (active water infiltration, structural concerns, life-safety issues), we'll flag it immediately and give you the information you need to make a fast decision. If we find something serious but not urgent, it goes into the recommended-actions list with a timeline. You're never going to read about a major problem in an invoice — you'll hear about it from us first. For more on what we typically look for, signs your flat roof needs immediate repair covers the warning signs we grade against.
How do we plan for the eventual replacement before it becomes a surprise?
The biggest mistake we see is property managers finding out a roof is at end-of-life from the leak that finally takes it down. By then, there's no time to budget, no time to bid the work out, and no time to plan around tenant disruption. Our flat roof savings calculator lets you estimate what a replacement will cost on any property in your portfolio, how much you can defer with proactive maintenance, and what the total cost of ownership looks like over the next 10 to 20 years.
Once you have a real number, the next step is building it into a multi-year plan you can defend to ownership. Our blog post on capital expenditure planning for roof replacement walks through how to structure a roof budget across the full life of the asset — what to flag now, what to defer, and how to avoid the position of needing six figures of capital approved on short notice.
