What affects the price

Replacing your roof involves several variables that shift your final bill. The total square footage of your property is the biggest factor, followed closely by the pitch or steepness of your roof, which dictates how safely crews can work. You will also need to choose your materials—architectural shingles, metal, or tile each carry different price points. We also have to account for the removal and disposal of your current roof, plus the condition of the underlying wood decking that might need repairs once the old shingles are off. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

Roof tiles are typically made from clay, concrete, or slate and offer a distinct, high-end look that is very resistant to heat and fire. They are significantly heavier than other materials, so your home’s structure must be able to support the weight. You choose tiles if you want a long-lasting roof that adds significant architectural character. Because they require specialized installation, costs are usually higher than standard shingles.

What is rolled roofing and is it suitable for Detroit?

Rolled roofing, also known as continuous roll roofing, is a type of asphalt-based roofing material that comes in large rolls. It's often used for low-slope or flat roofs, such as on porches, garages, or sheds. While it can be a more budget-friendly option, its lifespan is generally shorter than other roofing materials. For the main roof of a home in Detroit, especially those with steeper pitches, other materials like asphalt shingles or metal are typically more durable and effective against our weather.

What is rubber roofing and its benefits for Detroit homes?

Rubber roofing, often made from EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer), is a highly durable synthetic rubber membrane. It's an excellent choice for flat or low-slope roofs, common on additions or garages in Detroit. Rubber roofs offer superior waterproofing, are resistant to extreme temperature fluctuations, and can handle heavy snow loads and freeze-thaw cycles. They are also relatively low-maintenance and long-lasting, providing reliable protection for your home.
