Why Commerce Township homeowners choose T&M Roofing

When your roof in Commerce 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. Commerce Township is about 23 miles northwest of our shop at 14564 Schaefer Hwy in Detroit — roughly 40 minutes via M-10 north to I-696 west, then out M-5 and the Haggerty connector. 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 Commerce Township area, we’ll beat it — guaranteed.

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

Commerce grew up as a lake resort area — Union Lake, Lower Straits, Commerce Lake, Long Lake and the Huron River chain through Proud Lake — and the shoreline still carries the evidence. Plenty of the homes ringing those lakes began as modest seasonal cottages and were converted to year-round living one addition at a time: a shed dormer here, a second-story pop-up there, a three-season porch roofed in later. The result is a small footprint carrying four or five roof planes of different ages and pitches, with valleys and cricket details doing all the work. Away from the water, the township filled in hard from the 1990s onward as the population climbed past 43,000 — big two-story colonials off Sleeth, Benstein and Oakley Park with steep pitches, front gable stacks and cut-up hip-and-gable geometry. Mature oak canopy over the lake streets keeps north slopes damp and packs valleys with leaf litter, and most lakefront properties here also have a detached garage or shoreline outbuilding that needs roofing on the same visit.

We work on these exact homes every week:

Asphalt shingle replacement on converted lakefront cottages with mismatched additions, steep-pitch subdivision colonials, and detached garages and boathouse structures
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 lakefront attics dry and cool
Step flashing and chimney work on both original masonry cottage chimneys and the framed chimney chases common on Commerce’s 1990s-and-newer homes

If your home is in the 48382 or 48390 ZIP codes, there’s a good chance we’ve already done a roof on your block.

Storm damage is the #1 reason Commerce 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.
