Why Eastpointe homeowners choose T&M Roofing

When your roof in Eastpointe starts leaking after one of Michigan’s 70-mph storm gusts, you don’t want to wait three weeks for an out-of-area contractor to swing by. Eastpointe is about 16 miles northeast of our shop at 14564 Schaefer Hwy in Detroit — roughly 30 minutes via Eight Mile Road (M-102) East to Gratiot Avenue. We cover the whole Metro Detroit area, and we’re one of the established roofing companies you can call when something happens to your roof tonight.

For 20+ years we’ve been replacing, repairing, and maintaining residential and commercial roofs across Metro Detroit. We’re veteran-owned and family-run. The crew that quotes your roof is the crew you’ll see on it. And if you get a written quote from another licensed roofer in the Eastpointe area, we’ll beat it — guaranteed.

Eastpointe homes are exactly the houses we know how to roof

Eastpointe started life as Halfway, the stagecoach stop at the midpoint of the Gratiot Plank Road between Detroit and Mount Clemens, and it incorporated as the City of East Detroit in 1929 before taking its current name in the early 1990s. Almost all of the housing you see today went up in the postwar boom: block after block of brick bungalows, Cape Cods and small ranches built in the 1940s through the early 1960s for autoworkers, on a tight grid of narrow lots with short setbacks. That means simple gable and hip roofs, but also low-slope rear additions and enclosed porches tacked on later, shallow attics with almost no original soffit venting, short square brick chimneys, and detached garages at the back of the lot with roofs a decade past due. Because the lots are narrow and the houses sit close together, wind funnels down the streets and lifts shingles at the rakes and eaves first.

We work on these exact homes every week:

Asphalt shingle replacement on 1940s–1960s brick bungalow, Cape Cod and ranch rooflines, including low-slope rear additions
Tear-offs down to clean deck with full ice-and-water shield at the eaves — required for Michigan’s freeze-thaw cycles
Ridge vent and soffit ventilation upgrades that keep older, tight postwar attics dry and cool
Step flashing and chimney work on the short square brick chimneys typical of Eastpointe’s postwar bungalows

If your home is in the 48021 ZIP code, there’s a good chance we’ve already done a roof on your block.

Storm damage is the #1 reason Eastpointe homeowners call us

Southeast Michigan storm seasons are getting more aggressive. Most seasons bring at least one round of 60 to 70 mph wind gusts and hail across the area. Wind lifts and tears shingles. Hail leaves invisible bruises that turn into leaks two storms later. Then ice dams in February finish the job.

When you call after a storm, we’ll:

Inspect free, no obligation — full walk of the roof, photos of damage, written summary
Help you with the insurance claim — we’ll meet your adjuster on-site if needed
Tarp the roof same-day if there’s an active leak
Schedule the repair or replacement with same-week availability for most jobs

We’ve been doing storm response across Metro Detroit long enough that local insurance adjusters know our work.
