Editorial Review
Our Take on Capela's Roofing
Capela's Roofing earns its place on the strength of repeat customers and a hands-on owner, which is rare at this size. The trade-off is a one-crew schedule and no published warranty terms, so confirm both in writing before you sign.

Company Background
About Capela's Roofing
Capela's Roofing began in 1996 as a family business on Hamilton's East Mountain, and it still works that way. The owner, Silvestri Capela, installs on every jobsite from beginning to end, and the company says it runs one crew so that nobody is learning on your roof. The office sits at 15 Artistic Blvd, and the work reaches across Hamilton, including Ancaster, Dundas, Waterdown, Stoney Creek and Binbrook.
The company is a GAF Certified Contractor, carries an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau, and states that it holds a City of Hamilton business licence, liability insurance, working-at-heights training and WSIB coverage for its employees. The main work is asphalt shingle replacement with a full tear-off, custom colour-matched flashing, roof repair, inspections and emergency repair after leaks or wind damage. Capela's Roofing also does custom metal work and blown-in Owens Corning attic insulation. Financing runs through Financeit, with amortization up to 240 months at stated rates of 13.99% to 16.99%.
The reviews back up the site. Wayne has hired the company twice for a roof replacement over the years, and Armand used it again after 20 years. David praised Silvestri and Johanna for easy communication and a crew that arrived 15 minutes early and covered every window and door. Dan hired them to fix a flat roof another contractor had botched, and he did not pay until the job was finished. Rachel noted trucks in the driveway at 6:40am and tarps over the gardens. The rating is 4.9 from 55 Google reviews, read October 13, 2026. No complaint appears among the reviews read, though five is a small sample.
One fair note: with a single crew, the schedule can fill up, and the website does not publish workmanship warranty terms. It also leans toward shingles, and it does not market metal or flat roofing as a specialty.
Capela's Roofing suits homeowners who want an established local family firm, a GAF-backed shingle roof and the owner on the roof. It suits less well anyone needing a large commercial job or a metal or specialty system. Before booking, ask for the WSIB clearance certificate, which you can verify on the WSIB site, and proof of liability insurance. Ontario does not license roofers provincially, so also confirm the GAF certification with GAF and ask for the warranty in writing.

Capela's Roofing FAQs
Is Capela's Roofing insured and covered by WSIB?
Capela's Roofing states that it carries liability insurance and WSIB coverage for all employees. Its website also lists a City of Hamilton business licence, working-at-heights training, GAF Certified Contractor status and an A+ Better Business Bureau rating. Ontario does not license roofers provincially, so ask for the current WSIB clearance certificate, which you can verify on the WSIB site, and proof of liability insurance before work starts.
What are Capela's Roofing hours and do they do emergency roof repair?
Google lists Capela's Roofing as open 7:00 AM to 8:00 PM, seven days a week. The company also has an emergency roof repair service for active leaks, missing shingles, wind damage and storm damage. Its website does not promise 24 hour response, so call 905-528-9167 and ask how quickly a crew can attend.
