What Sets Roofing Army Apart in Clarkston

Who We Are

Roofing Army was built by Aaron Scott, a licensed residential builder who has spent his entire life in the home service industry and never lost his passion for the craft. Aaron lives in Oxford, where he is raising two young daughters with his wife, and he works alongside our crews across Southeast Michigan. He runs this company the same way he runs his home: with pride, integrity, and a refusal to cut corners.

Several of our crew members are Army veterans, and that ethos runs through everything we do: show up, do the work right, and serve the people counting on you. We are not obsessed with profits. We are obsessed with roofing. We built Roofing Army to be everything the other guys are not, and we are proud of every shingle that proves it.

Roofing Challenges Clarkston Homeowners Face

Clarkston and Independence Township sit in the rolling, wooded terrain of northwestern Oakland County. Higher elevation, proximity to Deer Lake and the mill ponds, and dense tree coverage create weather patterns and roofing challenges that communities further south and east deal with less intensely.

Tree Coverage & Algae Growth

Clarkston has some of the heaviest tree coverage in Oakland County. Shaded roofs hold moisture, feed algae, and accumulate leaf debris that clogs gutters. Falling branches during storms cause direct damage. Atlas shingles with Scotchgard protector granules resist the black streaking that plagues shaded roofs.

Ice Dams

Higher elevation and heavier snowfall combined with shaded roofs that hold snow longer create prime conditions for ice dams. The historic village homes with minimal attic ventilation are hit hardest. We install 6 feet of ice and water shield at all eaves on every roof replacement.

Hilltop Wind Exposure

Homes on exposed hilltops along Holcomb Road and Sashabaw Road face higher sustained wind speeds that stress ridge caps and edge shingles. Spring thunderstorms bring sudden downbursts and hail. If you notice storm damage, call us for a free inspection.

Complex Estate Roof Systems

Many Independence Township homes were custom-built in the 1980s through 2000s with expansive roof systems, multiple dormers, steep gable-and-hip combinations, and extensive valley work. At 25 to 35 years old, these complex systems require experienced crews for a proper replacement.

Failed Flashings on Complex Roofs

The more complex the roof, the more flashing points there are to fail. Clarkston's larger homes have numerous chimneys, skylights, sidewall transitions, and vent pipes. Rubber pipe boot flashings crack after 10 to 15 years. This is one of the first things we check during every roof repair inspection.

Building Permits & Codes in Clarkston

Permit Required

Independence Township

Independence Township requires a building permit for all roofing, shingle replacement, and deck replacement. Fees are based on the cost of the project. Building Department: 6483 Waldon Center Dr, (248) 625-5111.

No Permit Needed

Village of Clarkston

Standard re-shingling does not require a building permit in the Village of Clarkston. A permit is required if the job involves replacing plywood deck sheeting or repairing rafters. If your home is in the Historic District, you must get approval from the Historic District Commission for exterior changes regardless of permit requirements.

The village covers the small downtown core around Main Street. Most Clarkston-area homes are in Independence Township. We know exactly which jurisdiction covers your address and handle all the paperwork.

Every Roofing Army installation follows Michigan Residential Code and manufacturer specifications. We install ice and water shield well past the minimum code requirement on every Clarkston roof because of the heavy tree coverage and elevated snowfall in this area.

What Clarkston Homeowners Say

Roofing Army exceeded my expectations. Aaron and Scott were punctual with my estimate at the time promised. Jacob repaired the wind damaged roof with great professional expertise and completed the job at the time promised. We are very happy with the results.

I had a roof inspection performed. Scott came by on time, immediately went up on the roof and performed his inspection. He came down and told me that my roof is perfectly fine and to contact him in a couple more years to look at it again. Their company is honest, respectful, and has integrity.

After getting the runaround from a couple other companies, Aaron came out and was completely straight with me about what I needed. No pressure, no scare tactics, just honest info. The crew showed up on time, did solid work, and left the place clean. Exactly what you want from a roofing company.

Hundreds of Happy Customers

Aaron performed a very thorough inspection of the roof with a well-documented report. I was provided a very reasonable quote for a new roof with many options. The whole process was transparent and professional from start to finish.

After getting the runaround from a couple other companies, Aaron came out and was completely straight with me about what I needed. No pressure, no scare tactics, just honest info. The crew showed up on time, did solid work, and left the place clean.

This was an extremely smooth process. Starting with Aaron Scott who handled the estimate, he was friendly, on time, no hard sell, just advised me of problems and gave a good price. Evan and the roofers took it from there. The clean up was excellent. I would highly recommend Roofing Army.
