Local Factors That Affect Sterling Heights Roofs
Farmhouses, 1950s lots and 1960s subdivisions
Sterling Heights did not become a city until 1968. A Sterling Heights Public Library guide to local house history explains how the housing grew in stages. Homes older than the 1940s were mostly farmhouses. The 1950s brought manufacturing plants, and the workers who followed built along main roads on generous lots. The 1960s brought the first standard subdivisions on farmland that had been sold and split up. The city went from about 6,500 residents in 1950 to nearly 109,000 by 1980.
That history shows up on the roof. A 1950s house on a deep lot may have a detached garage, a breezeway or a later addition, each roofed at a different time. A 1960s or 1970s subdivision home has likely been through at least one re-roof already. Either way, a good estimate should include an attic check for decking condition and airflow, and a plan for every roof on the property, not just the main house.
Hail, wind and insurance claims
Summer thunderstorms move through southeast Michigan with gusty winds and, now and then, hail. Wind damage is often obvious: shingles in the yard or bare patches on a slope. Hail and creased shingles are easier to miss from the ground. If a storm rolls through and you are not sure, call us. We will photograph what we find and tell you honestly if it is worth involving your insurance company.
Ray Young has been absolutely amazing he has fought my insurance company to get me a full approval and has done whatever necessary to make this not stressful for me.

Winter: ice dams and heavy, wet snow
Michigan’s repeated freeze-thaw cycles are hard on older roofs. Warm air escaping into the attic melts snow from underneath, the meltwater refreezes at the colder overhangs, and ice dams push water back up under the shingles. Adding intake vents at the soffits, balancing exhaust at the ridge and bringing attic insulation up to a sensible depth solve more ice-dam problems than new shingles alone ever will.
From First Call to Final Cleanup
- Call or book online. We set up a free inspection at a time that works for you.
- Roof and attic inspection. Your project consultant checks shingles, flashing, vents, gutters and the attic, then walks you through photos of what they found.
- Options and a written price. We lay out shingle lines, metal options and any ventilation or decking work, with materials, labor, permits and disposal listed. Ask about financing on approved credit.
- Permits and scheduling. We pull the permits your city requires and set your install date.
- Installation day. The crew removes the old roofing, repairs decking as needed and installs the new system.
- Cleanup and walk-through. Debris and nails are cleaned up and hauled off, and we review the finished job with you.
- Warranty registration. We register the manufacturer coverage your roof qualifies for.
Sometimes the job is smaller than a replacement. As Anthony B. said about a leak fix:
They showed up on time, they were honest with what was going on with my leak and how to fix it. These guys went above and beyond to help me out.

Sterling Heights Roofing FAQs
My Sterling Heights house was built in the 1960s or 1970s. What should I expect when the old roof comes off?
Homes from that era have often been re-roofed before, so we plan for the possibility of more than one layer of shingles, older decking that has been through decades of freeze-thaw, and vents or flashing that were reused in a past job. We check the attic and the roof surface during the free estimate and put any likely decking work in writing before you sign.
Can you replace the roof on my detached garage at the same time as the house?
Yes. Many Sterling Heights properties, especially older homes on bigger lots along the main roads, have a separate garage or outbuilding. Doing both at once means matching shingles and one crew visit, and we can price them together or separately.
Do I need to be home while my roof is being replaced?
Not necessarily. Many homeowners like to be there when the crew starts and for the final walk-through. When we schedule your job, we will talk through driveway access for the material delivery and anything the crew should know about pets, gates or cars.
Is a metal roof a good fit for a Sterling Heights home?
It can be. Metal roofing and metal shingles cost more up front than asphalt, but they shed snow well and are built for a long service life. We will price both options side by side so you can decide whether the difference makes sense for how long you plan to stay in the house.
Do you offer financing for a new roof?
Yes. We work with financing partners and can help you apply, with financing available on approved credit. Ask your project consultant for current options during your free estimate.
