About us

The most human roofers you'll ever meet.

The quality of the work, well before the volume.

We believe that doing less allows us to do more. Less volume, more quality. We're all about satisfied customers and watertight roofs, not the number of square feet covered.

Minutia
We carry out each step with the utmost attention to detail, to ensure a high-quality result in every respect.
Compliance
We work in compliance with the national building code to deliver roofs that are as durable as they are compliant.
Our values

Redefining the notion of service.

Providing genuine service means more than writing bids and replacing roofs. It's about putting your expertise and your heart at the service of your customers.

Expertise

Our team is made up of experienced roofers who are constantly perfecting their craft. We work in accordance with the rules of the trade and the national building code.

Communication

Communication is one of the most important aspects of our approach. We keep our customers at the heart of their project by communicating proactively.

Transparency

We put our customers' interests before our own. At all times, we have a duty to give our customers the straight facts about their options.

Our approach

Doing it intelligently, transparently.

01
Problem assessment

We assess the roof and determine the causes of the problems involved.

02
Detailed proposal

We determine the most appropriate corrective measures and draw up a detailed proposal for the work.

03
Executing fixes

Our team carries out the work on schedule and in accordance with the initial proposal.

04
Warranty & after-sales service

In addition to offering the best warranty on the market, we remain available to assist our customers.

Impeccable experience, I received my quote the same day and they took the time to explain it to me despite all my questions! I really appreciated their follow-ups and their professionalism. Thanks to the whole team!

Refinishing a roof (like any other major expense) is never fun, but with the Ornithorynque Construction gang, everything is going well! Great communication, impressive deadlines, better guarantee than the competition. Plus, you don't try to load extras if they're not totally necessary. I recommend without hesitation!

I commissioned Platypus to repair my roof. Finally, here is an entrepreneur who answers the phone, returns your calls, arrives on time for his appointments and tells you exactly what to do with the prices. They offered me a start date for the work and showed up at 7 am as agreed. Very well done job on time. I highly recommend. Thanks to the whole team!

I am very satisfied with the overall work of the whole team. Samuel is a man of speech, polite and he delivers the expected results and respects the agreed deadlines. The work is exemplary and done according to the rules of the art. After dealing with several trades in the last few months, I can confirm that you are doing a good deal and that you will not regret it.

We received a visit from Jean-Sébastien during the weekend, the quote was made on the spot! Very competitive price and excellent service from him, I have nothing to say! Great!

I contacted this company because I had a problem with water entering the roof and other damage that needed to be repaired. Olivier, the representative, made the communication and the process very pleasant and easy. I appreciated that he took the time to explain to me the cause of the problem and the various repair options. The roofers then came on the agreed date to do the work. They were efficient, left the premises clean and showed me photos and explained the extent of the work done. I am very happy with their service!

Professionalism at its best! I was very happy with the work done from start to finish. Leaving no debris behind everything was cleaned up once the roof was finished. Recommend 100%

The guys are pros. They gave me the options. I could have paid less and been fooled by guys who patched the roof and said nothing. With them, they take all the photos, ask you to come and see the work in progress. Beautiful finish The bill went up because they had to redo the entire roof structure. It was not forced but offered if I wanted to keep the building for the long term. Which was the case.

Our roof was leaking. Very good and fast emergency repair and roof repair service. Courteous staff explaining at each stage the why and how of the repair of my roof thus avoiding any problem. We wanted to respect the design of our roof, such as the visible flashings in our front, for example, and everything was done as we wanted. They left the place clean. Thanks to the whole team!

Great!!! That describes my experience with Platypus. I had an emergency situation, my roof was leaking in my tenants' room so I had a neighbor who used them and was extremely satisfied. I decided to call them the best decision... they came the same day to check and assess the roof and the reasons why. It was leaking. They were very professional, kept me up to date with everything that was being done and that allowed me to have confidence in the work that was done step by step. Thank you and your amazing staff and services Platypus!!!
