Why Walled Lake homeowners choose T&M Roofing

When your roof in Walled Lake 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. Walled Lake is about 22 miles west-northwest of our shop at 14564 Schaefer Hwy in Detroit — roughly 30 minutes via M-10 north to I-696 west, then M-5 and the Haggerty connector to West Maple. 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 Walled Lake area, we’ll beat it — guaranteed.

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

Walled Lake is a compact city — about two and a third square miles wrapped around the northeast shore of its 670-acre all-sports lake — and that density defines the work. Only about 40 percent of housing here is single-family detached; the rest is townhomes, condos and apartment buildings, so a large share of our Walled Lake jobs are association roofs where we’re coordinating multiple buildings, a board and a shared staging area. On the detached side, the dominant eras are the 1970s through the 1990s, backed by a solid layer of 1950s postwar ranches and bungalows, and a smaller pocket of pre-war lakefront cottage stock along East Lake Drive and the South Lake Drive blocks. Those lakeside houses have been added onto repeatedly — enclosed porches, shed dormers, tacked-on garages — leaving irregular roof planes and valleys that dump onto lower additions. Lots are tight with short setbacks, so we plan the dumpster drop and cleanup route before the first shingle comes off. Most of the 1970s and 80s ranches and colonials here are now on their third roof.

We work on these exact homes every week:

Asphalt shingle replacement on 1970s–90s ranches and colonials, postwar bungalows, added-onto lakefront cottages, and multi-building condo and townhome roofs
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 masonry chimneys typical of Walled Lake’s postwar ranch and cottage-era housing

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

Storm damage is the #1 reason Walled Lake 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.
