The Benefit of Local Expertise and Trust

Roof Replacement

When your roof reaches the end of its life or has significant damage, a full replacement is the best way to protect your home. We remove the old roofing carefully and install a new system that meets local building codes and industry standards. Our team will help you choose the right materials, style, and color to enhance your home’s curb appeal.

Roof Restoration

Not every roof requires a full replacement. Sometimes, a professional restoration can extend the life of your existing roof, saving you money while keeping your home safe. We inspect your roof thoroughly and repair leaks, damaged shingles, and worn areas with precision and care.

Roof Installation FAQs

Straight answers to the questions Detroit homeowners ask before a new roof goes on.

What does a new roof installation include?

A complete installation from T&M Roofing covers:

  • Removing the old roof (tear-off), or preparing the deck on new construction
  • Inspecting the decking and replacing damaged boards
  • Underlayment, plus ice-and-water shield at the eaves and valleys
  • Drip edge and flashing at chimneys, walls, skylights and vents
  • Ridge and soffit ventilation sized for the attic
  • New asphalt shingles or metal panels
  • Cleanup and a final inspection

Your written quote lists exactly what is included and anything that would be extra, such as decking replacement beyond what we can see.

How long does a roof installation take?

It depends on the size and pitch of the roof, the number of layers coming off, the amount of decking repair and the weather. We give you the schedule in writing before work starts and keep you updated if weather moves it.

What is the best roofing material for Michigan weather?

For most Detroit homes, architectural asphalt shingles give the best balance of cost, appearance and performance, and they handle freeze-thaw cycles well when installed with ice-and-water shield and good ventilation. Metal roofing costs more up front but sheds snow well and lasts a long time. Low-slope sections need a flat-roof membrane instead of shingles. Read our guide to the best roofing shingles for Michigan weather.

When is the best time to install a roof in Michigan?

Late spring through fall is ideal, because asphalt shingles need warmth to seal their adhesive strips. Roofs can still be installed in colder months on suitable days, following the shingle manufacturer's cold-weather instructions, such as hand-sealing where required. If your roof is leaking, do not wait for the season: call us and we will protect it first.

How do I prepare for a roof installation?

  1. Move cars out of the driveway and garage area.
  2. Cover or move belongings stored in the attic, since dust can fall during tear-off.
  3. Take down wall hangings on top-floor walls.
  4. Keep pets and children inside and away from the work area.
  5. Make sure we can reach the outdoor outlets and the sides of the house.
  6. Expect noise during working hours and let your neighbors know.

Is roof installation different from roof replacement?

We use roof installation for putting a complete new roof system on a home, including new builds and additions, and roof replacement for removing a worn roof and replacing it. If you are deciding whether you need one, see roof replacement in Detroit.
