Why Lake Orion homeowners choose T&M Roofing

When your roof in Lake Orion 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. Lake Orion is about 35 miles north of our shop at 14564 Schaefer Hwy in Detroit — roughly 50 minutes via the Lodge Freeway (M-10), I-75 north and M-24. 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 Lake Orion area, we’ll beat it — guaranteed.

Lake Orion homes are exactly the houses we know how to roof

The Village of Lake Orion began as a 19th-century resort town — the railroad arrived in 1872 and Detroit families came up to summer on the lake. That legacy defines the roofs here. Around the water and on Bellevue and Park islands you’ll find former cottages from the late 1800s through the mid-1900s that were winterized, dormered and added onto, sitting on steep, narrow lots where the roof of one house looks down onto the next. Homes on Park Island were built out in the 1960s. Away from the shoreline, the village core has compact early-1900s frame houses on small lots. Steep, cut-up rooflines with lots of valleys and short flashing runs are the norm, and the tree canopy over the village keeps those valleys loaded with debris.

We work on these exact homes every week:

Asphalt shingle replacement on steep, cut-up cottage and early-1900s village rooflines, including dormers and 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 converted-cottage attics dry and cool
Step flashing and chimney work on the brick and fieldstone chimneys common on Lake Orion’s resort-era houses

If your home is in the 48362 ZIP code, there’s a good chance we’ve already done a roof on your block.

Storm damage is the #1 reason Lake Orion 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.
