What Sets Roofing Army Apart in Hazel Park

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 right here in Oxford on West Drahner Road, raising two young daughters with his wife, and 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 Hazel Park Homeowners Face

Hazel Park shares the demanding Metro Detroit climate with heavy winter snowfall, freezing rain, and sustained cold from November through March. The city's post-war housing stock was built with minimal insulation and ventilation by today's standards, which creates roofing challenges that newer communities do not face. The narrow lots, mature trees, and heavy clay soil add drainage and moisture complications that affect roof longevity throughout the city.

Ice Dams on Post-War Bungalows

Hazel Park's bungalows from the 1920s through 1940s near John R Road and Nine Mile Road have steep pitches, narrow eaves, and limited attic ventilation. Heat escapes through the poorly insulated attic, melts snow on the upper roof, and the meltwater refreezes at the colder eaves to form ice dams. This is the most common winter roofing complaint in Hazel Park. Proper ventilation solutions installed during a roof replacement fix the problem permanently.

Outdated Ventilation on 1950s Ranches

The ranch-style homes north of Ten Mile Road have low-slope roofs with minimal attic space. Without proper intake and exhaust ventilation, attics trap heat in summer (cooking shingles from underneath and driving up cooling costs) and moisture in winter (promoting mold on the decking and creating ice dam conditions). We install the right combination of ridge vents, can vents, or solar-powered fans matched to each home's specific attic volume and intake capacity.

Second and Third Generation Roofs

Many Hazel Park homes are on their second or third roof since original construction. Previous contractors may have laid new shingles over old ones, neglected deteriorating decking, or compromised flashing at additions and dormers. We strip everything down to the bare structure, inspect every board, and replace any soft, warped, or water-damaged sections. On homes that have been reroofed multiple times, we frequently find hidden decking damage that only becomes visible after a full tear-off.

Summer Storm Damage

Metro Detroit averages 30+ thunderstorm days per year. High winds and hail strip granules from aging shingles, and on Hazel Park's narrow lots, debris from one roof can land on a neighbor's property. The flat terrain across Hazel Park offers no natural wind protection during severe storms. If you notice storm damage, call us for a free inspection before the next rain makes it worse.

Mature Trees and Narrow Lots

Hazel Park's tree-lined streets are a defining feature of the city, but mature trees drop branches during storms and shade large portions of roofs for most of the day. Shaded roofs develop dark algae streaking faster than sun-exposed roofs, and falling leaves clog gutters and trap moisture in valleys. The heavy clay soil common throughout Hazel Park does not drain well, which means water that is not properly channeled off the roof can pool near foundations. Atlas shingles with Scotchgard protector granules resist the algae streaking that is common on shaded Hazel Park roofs.

Local Roofing Insights for Hazel Park

John R & Nine Mile Area

The oldest section of Hazel Park, with 1920s-1930s bungalows and the commercial corridor along John R Road. These homes have steep roof pitches, narrow eaves, and the most pressing ventilation challenges in the city. Many are on their third or fourth roof and frequently need decking replacement during tear-off. The compact footprints keep replacement costs lower, but the steep pitches and tight lot lines require experienced crews.

Central Neighborhoods

Cape Cod style homes built in the late 1940s and early 1950s fill the central blocks of Hazel Park. These 1.5-story homes have dormers, steeper pitches than the later ranches, and attic spaces that were often finished into living areas. Proper ventilation and insulation around these finished attic spaces is critical for preventing ice dams and condensation problems.

North of Ten Mile Road

The newest section of Hazel Park, with 1950s-1960s ranch houses on slightly larger lots. These homes have lower-slope roofs with simpler geometry, which makes for efficient replacements. The challenge is the minimal attic space and ventilation that was standard in this era. Many of these roofs need upgraded intake and exhaust ventilation during replacement to meet current performance standards.

Why Hazel Park Homeowners Invest in Quality

Hazel Park property values have been rising steadily as the city attracts buyers priced out of Ferndale and Royal Oak. With median home values around $141,000, a quality roof replacement represents a meaningful share of home value. Homeowners here are investing in their properties for the long term, and a properly installed roof with a 10-20 year workmanship warranty protects that investment. Our Ferndale office borders Hazel Park directly.

Building Permits & Codes in Hazel Park

The City of Hazel Park requires a building permit for roof replacements. Residential permit fees are $75 for the first thousand dollars of project value plus $10 for each additional thousand. Each inspection costs $75.

The Building Official can be reached at 248-546-4075. City Hall is located at 111 East Nine Mile Road, Hazel Park, MI 48030. Building Official hours are Monday through Friday, 10:00 AM to 12:30 PM.

We handle all permit paperwork for every Hazel Park job, from application through final inspection. Contact us for any questions about the permit process for your specific project.

Regardless of permit requirements, 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 Hazel Park roof.

Signs You Need a New Roof in Hazel Park

Not sure if your roof needs attention? Here are the warning signs Hazel Park homeowners should watch for.

1

Curling or Buckling Shingles

Shingles that are curling at the edges or buckling in the middle have lost their seal and are no longer protecting your home. This is a sign of age, heat damage, or moisture from underneath.

2

Missing or Cracked Shingles

If you see bare spots on your roof or find shingle pieces in your yard or gutters after a storm, the roof is actively failing. Even a few missing shingles leave your decking exposed to water.

3

Granules in Your Gutters

The small sand-like granules on asphalt shingles protect them from UV and weather. When you see heavy granule buildup in your gutters or downspouts, the shingles are nearing end of life.

4

Dark Streaks or Algae Growth

Black streaks on your roof are algae feeding on the limestone in your shingles. While cosmetic at first, heavy algae growth means the protective granules are being consumed and the shingles are deteriorating.

5

Sagging Areas

A sagging roofline or soft spots when walking on the roof indicate structural issues, rotted decking, or trapped moisture. This needs immediate attention before it becomes a safety concern.

6

Daylight Through the Attic

If you can see daylight coming through the roof boards from inside your attic, water is getting in too. Check for light spots and water stains on the underside of the decking.

7

Recurring Leaks

A single leak can sometimes be repaired. But if leaks keep coming back in the same spot or showing up in new areas, the underlying roofing system is failing and a full replacement is the right call.

8

Your Roof Is 20+ Years Old

Most asphalt shingle roofs in Michigan last 20 to 25 years. If yours is in that range and showing any of these signs, it is likely past its useful life even if it looks okay from the ground.

Noticing any of these signs? We offer free roof inspections with no obligation.

Storm Damage? We Help With Insurance Claims in Hazel Park

If your roof was damaged by wind, hail, or a fallen tree, your homeowners insurance policy will typically cover the cost of repair or replacement minus your deductible. We work with all major insurance carriers and guide you through the entire claims process so you get what your policy covers.

We do not inflate claims or add unnecessary charges. We document what is actually damaged, provide honest assessments, and let the insurance process work the way it is supposed to.

1

Call Us First

Before calling your insurance company, call us. We will come out the same day or next day, inspect the damage, and document everything with photos and a detailed report.

2

We Meet Your Adjuster

When your insurance company sends an adjuster, we meet them on site at your home. We walk the roof together, point out all the damage, and make sure nothing gets missed.

3

We Handle the Paperwork

We provide your insurance carrier with all the documentation they need: damage photos, measurements, material specifications, and a detailed scope of work.

4

We Do the Work

Once your claim is approved, we schedule and complete the replacement or repair. You pay your deductible and the insurance covers the rest. No out of pocket surprises.
