Editorial Review
Our Take on Y Laramée Couvreur Inc
A multi-generation Lachine roofer with a clear RBQ licence, manufacturer ties and a strong fit for flat roofs across the West Island. The 4.7 rating from 59 reviews is solid rather than spectacular on volume. Published hours differ slightly between Google and the company site, so confirm when you call.

What We Like
- Founded in the 1970s and run by the Laramée family across three generations
- RBQ licence 3088-0884-33 and Association des maîtres couvreurs du Québec membership
- Says it helped bring elastomer membranes to Québec, with GAF, IKO and Soprema listed as suppliers
- States a 5 million dollar liability insurance policy and GAF shingle warranties of more than 50 years

Things to Consider
- Google lists opening at 7:00 while the company site says 8:00, so confirm hours before visiting
- Office is closed on weekends and emergency calls go to a message line, not a live dispatcher
- No prices, employee count or named technicians are published, so ask for a detailed written quote

Company Background
About Y Laramée Couvreur Inc
Anyone driving along the Lachine waterfront, through Dorval, Pointe-Claire or Kirkland, or into the older triplex streets of Verdun and NDG, has probably passed a roof laid by Y. Laramée Couvreur Inc. The company runs from a yard at 166 6e Avenue in Lachine, one of Montreal's western boroughs, and its own list of service areas reads like a map of the West Island and the Sud-Ouest: Lachine, LaSalle, Verdun, Île-des-Soeurs, Saint-Henri, Griffintown, Ville-Marie, Saint-Laurent, Côte-Saint-Luc and Westmount, plus Châteauguay and Candiac across the river.
The firm was founded in the 1970s by Yvon Laramée, who the website credits with bringing elastomer membranes to Québec. His son Yvon Jr. took over in 1994, and the business is now led by him and his sons Mathieu and Yvon III. The red dump trucks in the company's own photos carry the Laramée name on the door.
The work leans toward flat and low-slope roofs, which suits the plexes, condo buildings and small commercial blocks that dominate this part of the island. The site lists GAF asphalt shingles, SEBS multilayer systems, two-ply elastomer membranes, green roofs, slate and craft roofing, metal roofing and rooftop snow removal. Shingle roofs carry the GAF manufacturer warranty, which the site describes as lasting more than 50 years, and the company states a 5 million dollar liability insurance policy. Financing is offered to individuals through Financeit, and estimates are free.
Credentials are plain to check. The company gives RBQ licence 3088-0884-33 and says it belongs to the Association des maîtres couvreurs du Québec. It also shows ACQ and APCHQ membership logos and lists GAF, IKO and Soprema among its suppliers. Google shows 4.7 from 59 Google reviews, read October 15, 2026. We could not retrieve the review text on the day of writing, so no individual crew members are named here.
Y. Laramée Couvreur Inc. suits owners of flat-roofed plexes, condo boards and commercial landlords in the West Island and the Sud-Ouest who want an established family firm with a documented licence. It suits less well anyone who needs weekend work, since the office is closed Saturday and Sunday, or who wants fixed prices published online, because none are listed. Before booking, confirm the licence number on the Régie du bâtiment du Québec (RBQ) licence search at rbq.gouv.qc.ca, ask for the warranty in writing, and ask which membrane or shingle system is quoted and who will supervise the crew.
