Why Salem Township homeowners choose T&M Roofing

When your roof in Salem Township 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. Salem Township is about 25 miles west of our shop at 14564 Schaefer Hwy in Detroit — roughly 35 minutes via I-96 West to Napier Road. 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 Salem Township area, we’ll beat it — guaranteed.

Salem Township homes are exactly the houses we know how to roof

Salem Township was organized in 1832 as a farming township and has never incorporated as a city, and it has kept that shape — no city center, just section-line roads, working farmland and the small unincorporated settlements of Salem and Brookville. That means our work here splits three ways. First, the original farmhouse stock: 19th-century gable-front and upright-and-wing houses with steep pitches, narrow eaves and tall unlined brick chimneys, usually paired with a barn, a granary or a machine shed that needs its own metal or shingle work. Second, the outbuildings themselves — long low-slope roofs where fastener backout and ridge cap failure show up before anything else. Third, the newer estate homes on multi-acre parcels along Six Mile, Seven Mile, Curtis and Napier, which bring wide multi-plane roofs, dormers and complicated garage-return valleys. Open-country wind exposure here is genuinely worse than in the subdivisions closer in — ridge caps and rake edges take the brunt.

We work on these exact homes every week:

Asphalt shingle replacement on steep-pitched 19th-century farmhouses as well as the wide multi-plane roofs on Salem Township’s newer acreage homes
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, retrofitted attics dry and cool
Step flashing and chimney work on the tall unlined brick chimneys standard on Salem Township’s original farmhouse stock

If your home is in the 48175, 48168, 48170 or 48178 ZIP codes, there’s a good chance we’ve already done a roof on your block.

Storm damage is the #1 reason Salem Township 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.
