Hi there, I’m sorry that you were disappointed by your experience. The wind storms in April and May were unprecedented and caused damage throughout Ontario. The reality is that 3-tab shingles are rated for winds up to 95-110kph and the wind storms had measured sustained gusts of up to 100km/h. This does not account for higher winds that are experienced in the wind tunnels that are created between homes, up valleys or between dormers, or up a roof slope if a house is positioned near an open field.
While we can appreciate how frustrating it is to lose shingles, we did send out our Inspector and confirmed the shingles did not have an installation issue. Chouinard Bros. did offer to help facilitate a warranty claim with the manufacturer (we cannot initiate a claim - it must come from the homeowner). Chouinard's sent out another Inspector after your first post, to ensure that the repairs you had carried out by a third party where done to correct standards. (We even sealed down the third party's repair to try and help prevent further damage.) This does not mean that we do not appreciate how frustrating your experience was and hope that by educating you with proper warranty procedures we have helped you better understand the process.
