Why Pleasant Ridge homeowners choose T&M Roofing

When your roof in Pleasant Ridge 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. Pleasant Ridge is about 11 miles northeast of our shop at 14564 Schaefer Hwy in Detroit — roughly 20 minutes via the Lodge Freeway (M-10) and I-696. 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.

Pleasant Ridge homes are exactly the houses we know how to roof

Pleasant Ridge is barely more than half a square mile, and almost all of it is one continuous stretch of pre-war housing. The land was platted starting in 1906, and the bulk of the houses went up between the late 1910s and the early 1940s, heaviest in the 1920s and 1930s — brick Tudor Revivals, English cottages, Colonial Revivals and Craftsman bungalows, most of it inside the Pleasant Ridge Historic District and the Pleasant Ridge East Historic District on the National Register. That means steep slopes, clipped and jerkinhead gables, arched dormers, slate-look profiles, and roof-to-wall intersections everywhere. Almost every house has a tall original brick chimney, and many have chimney-and-dormer combinations that leak long before the field shingles wear out. Lots are narrow, streets are curb-less and heavily shaded by mature trees, so tear-off staging, dumpster placement and protecting landscaping matter as much as the shingle work itself.

We work on these exact homes every week:

Asphalt shingle replacement on steep 1920s Tudors, English cottages, Colonial Revivals and dormered Craftsman bungalows
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, tightly framed attics dry and cool
Step flashing and chimney work on the tall original brick chimneys standard on 1920s and 1930s Pleasant Ridge houses

If your home is in the 48069 ZIP code, there’s a good chance we’ve already done a roof on your block.

Storm damage is the #1 reason Pleasant Ridge 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.
