Roof Replacement Dearborn, MI | Owens Corning Preferred, One-Day Install | (734) 602-4250

What the warranty covers before you sign

If you are about to pay for a new roof on a Dearborn colonial, you should know what happens after the last shingle is nailed down. We are an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor, which lets us offer the TotalProtection warranty. It covers the materials and also the labor to install them. Our roofing in Dearborn page lists the rest of what we do.

That labor coverage matters because many roofs fail from how shingles were put on, not from the shingles themselves. Our own crew does every job and we never use subcontractors, so the people on your roof are the people standing behind the work. Ask us to walk through the coverage when we hand you the written quote. If only one spot is leaking, roof repair in Dearborn may be the better first step.

Roof replacement in Dearborn on a roof with many levels

Older Dearborn brick colonials and two story houses often have a roof broken into several planes, with porch roofs, dormers and a chimney, and that makes the job harder to do safely. Every change of angle is a spot where water can get in and a spot where a crew member needs careful footing, so one steady crew should stay with the house.

We book only one full replacement per day, which keeps the whole crew on your roof instead of splitting their time between addresses. Most replacements finish the same day they start. We check the details ourselves, because on a roof like this the small ones are the ones that leak. Brick bungalows are a different shape of job, covered under roof replacement in Allen Park.

Old roof off, new roof on, and the price

A roof with this many surfaces can hide trouble under the old shingles, so we take all of them off. We strip down to the decking, the wood boards the shingles nail into, and we never lay a second layer over the old one. We inspect that wood while the roof is open.

Ice and water shield goes down next. It is a sticky membrane that stops melting snow from leaking in under the shingles. Then Owens Corning Duration or Duration Storm shingles go on. See our full roof replacement process for more. A typical residential replacement runs $8,500 to $16,000, depending on size, pitch, layers and shingle grade, and the estimate is free. Once the roof is done, check that your gutters drain cleanly.
