roofing overview
Roofing Built to Handle Michigan Weather
A roof takes more punishment in Michigan than almost anywhere else – freeze-thaw cycles, heavy snow loads, and summer storms all wear on shingles and flashing differently than in milder climates. #1 Construction has spent over 20 years repairing and replacing roofs for homeowners across Southeast Michigan, and every job accounts for what actually causes roofs to fail here, not a generic install process borrowed from a warmer market.
Whether you’ve noticed a leak, you’re due for a full replacement, or you just want a professional set of eyes on your roof’s condition, our licensed and insured team handles the inspection, the estimate, and the work itself – with permits and cleanup included. We also work directly with insurance companies on storm and hail damage claims, so you’re not navigating that process alone.
Every roofing project is backed by a 1-year labor warranty, with free estimates delivered within a week of your initial inspection.

Signs You Need Roof Repair or Replacement
- Visible leaks, water stains on ceilings, or damp spots in the attic
- Missing, cracked, or curling shingles

Our Roofing Process
1. Inspection & Consultation
We assess your roof's current condition - age, materials, visible damage - and talk through what you're noticing (a leak, missing shingles, or simply wanting an update).
2. Detailed Estimate
You receive a clear, itemized estimate within a week, including whether repair or full replacement makes more sense for your situation.
3. Insurance Coordination (If Applicable)
For storm or hail damage claims, we work directly with your insurance company to document damage and coordinate the claim.
4. Permits & Scheduling
We handle any required permitting and typically schedule work within a few weeks of an approved estimate.
5. The Roofing Work
Tear-off (if needed), installation, and cleanup are completed with regular updates throughout.
6. Final Walkthrough
We review the finished roof together, confirming everything meets expectations - backed by a 1-year labor warranty.
How Much Does Roofing Cost in Michigan?
Roofing costs vary based on the size of your roof, the material you choose, and the scope of work – repair, tear-off and replacement, or a new installation. A few factors that most affect price:
- Roof size and pitch – larger and steeper roofs require more materials and labor time
- Material choice – asphalt shingles are typically the most cost-effective option, while metal, tile, and cedar shake carry a higher upfront cost but can offer longer lifespans
- Scope of work – a targeted repair costs far less than a full tear-off and replacement, and a straightforward re-roof costs less than a job requiring deck repair or structural work underneath
- Accessibility and complexity – roofs with multiple angles, chimneys, or skylights take more time to work around than a simple gable roof
- Permits and disposal – tear-off jobs include the cost of removing and disposing of the old roofing material
Rather than offer a generic price range that may not reflect your actual roof, we provide a free, itemized estimate after inspecting your roof in person – so you know the real cost for your specific project before any work is scheduled, not a ballpark figure that changes once work begins.
