About Riverside Shingles


Kingsway Avenue roofing outfit specializing in shingle systems built for wet-coast winters.

Nobody notices a shingle roof when it is doing its job, and keeping it unnoticed is mostly a matter of catching small problems before the wet season finds them. Moss in the valleys and a dark streak along the north slope are the usual early signs. Riverside Shingles is a roofing contractor at 750 Kingsway Ave in Port Coquitlam, and the listing describes the company as serving the Tri-Cities. The work is loud, physical and weather-dependent, and homeowners tend to remember crews that leave a tidy site.

Shingles remain the most common roofing material on homes in British Columbia, and the work around them is well understood: replacing cracked or lifted pieces, renewing flashing around chimneys and vents, clearing moss before it holds water, and checking that the attic breathes properly so moisture does not work against the roof from inside. When a roof nears the end of its service life, the question changes from repair to replacement, and an inspection is the honest way to find out which side of that line a house sits on. Port Coquitlam sits between two rivers and sees the full Pacific Northwest weather, and the overcast months are when small leaks tend to show themselves.

Homeowners can ask whether an estimate includes tear-off and disposal, what materials are proposed, and how long the crew expects to be on the roof. Gutter work and downspout drainage are worth raising in the same conversation, since water leaving the roof matters as much as the roof itself. Late summer is the usual window for re-roofing, and crews book up as the dry weeks approach. No phone number or website is available, so confirming current contact details is worth doing before planning any work. The Kingsway Avenue address sits on the commercial side of the city, which suits a trade that spends its days moving between job sites around PoCo, Coquitlam and Port Moody.
