Why Saint Clair Shores homeowners choose T&M Roofing

When your roof in Saint Clair Shores 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. Saint Clair Shores is about 22 miles northeast of our shop at 14564 Schaefer Hwy in Detroit — roughly 35 minutes via the Lodge Freeway (M-10) to I-696 east, then I-94 and Harper 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 Saint Clair Shores area, we’ll beat it — guaranteed.

Saint Clair Shores homes are exactly the houses we know how to roof

Saint Clair Shores filled in fast between the 1940s and the early 1960s, and it shows in how uniform the roofs are: block after block of brick bungalows, Cape Cods and long single-story ranches on narrow lots, most with simple gable or hip roofs, shallow pitches, tight overhangs and a single original brick chimney. Streets run east–west toward Lake St. Clair, which means almost every house presents a broad slope straight into the wind coming off the water — and that lake exposure is the difference-maker here. Onshore gusts strip tabs along the windward eave, lake-effect snow piles heavier than it does ten miles inland, and the constant humidity off the water keeps north slopes damp enough to grow moss and rot decking under old flashing. East of Jefferson you have the lakefront and canal-front homes, where boat wells, additions and low-slope rear sections mean a single house can need three different roofing details.

We work on these exact homes every week:

Asphalt shingle replacement on 1950s brick bungalow, Cape Cod and long ranch slopes, plus low-slope rear additions on canal-front 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 attics dry and cool
Step flashing and chimney work on the single brick chimneys standard on Saint Clair Shores’ postwar bungalows and ranches

If your home is in the 48080, 48081 or 48082 ZIP codes, there’s a good chance we’ve already done a roof on your block.

Storm damage is the #1 reason Saint Clair Shores 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.
