What they are built on

What actually breaks

Page title does not name the city they work in
on 10 of them.

10 of the 44 roofing companies we opened in North York share the same fault: page title does not name the city they work in. 8 have a second one on top of it — no meta description, so google writes its own. None of this is visible to the owner, which is why it survives for years.

If you own one of these 44 sites, the order to fix them in is the order above: the fault 10 businesses share is the one your competitors have not fixed either, so it is where the cheapest advantage sits.

What this means for you

59% of North York sites
are technically fine.

Roofing companies in North York are in better shape than most trades we surveyed — 59% of the 44 sites are secure and work on a phone. Across the GTA the same field sits at 1% with no mobile version; North York is at 0%, near enough the same. Standing out in a market like this takes more than being technically correct: it takes saying something the other 43 sites do not.

Where a roofer lands depends on how many services need a page of their own — $590 at the small end, $3,900 for a practice with a dozen. Nothing is due until it is finished. Full pricing.

Questions

Asked often.

How many roofers are there in North York?

47 listings, of which 6 have a website with nothing technically wrong with it. The remaining 41 are either missing a site, running a broken one, or running one with at least one fault we could see from outside.

How many Google reviews do I need to compete in North York?

To be average in North York you need 34. To be in the top quarter you need more than 88. To be visible next to the busiest roofer here you would need 344, which took them years. 34 of the 47 already hold a 4.9 rating, so the rating is not what separates them.

What does a website for a roofer in North York cost?

Between $590 and $3,900 depending on the size of the practice and how many services need their own page, paid after the site is built and you have seen it. Hosting, edits, your Google Business Profile and ongoing SEO run $129 to $990 a month, cancellable any month.

Before you decide anything

Find out whether
you have a problem.

Most people asking about a rebuild do not need one. The free check opens your site, looks at how it behaves on a phone, whether it is secure and how old the page is, and tells you which of those apply to you.
