Editorial Review
Our Take on Tops Roofing & Siding
A long-running family outfit on the Mountain with strong reviews on speed and cleanup and clear warranty terms. The site is thin on proof: no named team, no WSIB or insurance statement and no financing, so verify those before you sign.

Company Background
About Tops Roofing & Siding
Tops Roofing & Siding works out of 1550 Upper James Street on the Hamilton Mountain, in the Mewburn area near South Hamilton Square, which puts the crew close to the west and central Mountain neighbourhoods. The company says it has been family owned since 1982, and its site claims more than 40 years in the trade. It also serves Stoney Creek, Waterdown, Dundas and Ancaster.
Roofing is the core of the business. The site lists asphalt and fibreglass shingle roofs, architectural laminated shingles, re-roofing, repairs, flashing, skylights and flat roofing, with torch-on membrane work for commercial buildings. Shingles are IKO, which the site describes as Canadian made. Tops Roofing & Siding also installs siding, eavestrough, soffit and fascia, and insulation, so one crew can handle a roof and the trim around it. Calls are answered 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and Google shows the same hours. The site displays Hamilton Spectator Readers' Choice badges, Gold for roofing and Diamond for siding.
Warranty terms are spelled out. Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, shingled roofs get a 25 year workmanship warranty, and IKO's limited lifetime warranty on architectural laminated shingles is available on request. Payment is by Interac, e-Transfer, cash or cheque. The site mentions no financing.
Google shows 4.6 stars from 109 Google reviews, read October 13, 2026. Reviewers talk about speed and tidiness. Brian described Joe coming out the same day to look at a gable vent and returning the next morning to install it. Another homeowner said Joe and Lucy started a large repair four days after the first call, and that Lawrence and Joe handled the new siding, fascia and eaves. Others mention crews that clean up after themselves. The site names no owner or crew and publishes no WSIB or insurance statement.
This company suits Mountain homeowners who want one family run outfit for a roof plus siding and eavestrough work, and anyone who needs an after-hours call answered. It suits less well buyers who want financing, a named project manager or a manufacturer certification, because none is stated. 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. Get the 25 year workmanship terms in writing, and confirm any manufacturer certification with the manufacturer.

Tops Roofing & Siding FAQs
Is Tops Roofing & Siding insured and covered by WSIB?
The company's website does not state WSIB coverage or liability insurance, so ask for both in writing before work starts. Ontario does not license roofers provincially. Request the WSIB clearance certificate, which you can verify on the WSIB site, and proof of liability insurance. The site also shows Hamilton Spectator Readers' Choice badges, but those are reader awards and not credentials.
Does Tops Roofing & Siding offer 24 hour emergency roof repair in Hamilton?
Yes, the company says it takes calls 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and Google lists the same hours. The office is at 1550 Upper James Street on the Hamilton Mountain, and the phone is 905-312-0558. The site lists roof repairs among its services. Ask about response time when you call, since the site gives none.
