What Sets Roofing Army Apart in Huntington Woods

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 Huntington Woods Homeowners Face

Huntington Woods shares the demanding Metro Detroit climate with heavy winter snowfall, freezing rain, and sustained cold from November through March. The city's older housing stock and dense tree canopy create specific roofing challenges. The steep-pitch Tudors and colonials handle snow load well but are more exposed to wind, while the mature trees that give Huntington Woods its park-like character also shade roofs, drop debris, and send branches onto roof surfaces during storms.

Ice Dams on Steep-Pitch Tudors

The English Tudor homes in Huntington Woods have steeply pitched roofs that accumulate significant snow on their upper surfaces. When heat escapes through inadequately insulated attics, snow melts on the upper roof and refreezes at the colder eaves, forming ice dams. The steep pitches concentrate meltwater at the eaves with more force than low-slope roofs. Proper ventilation and ice and water shield during a roof replacement prevent this permanently.

Complex Attic Ventilation

Huntington Woods homes have complex roof geometries with multiple intersecting planes, dormers, hip-to-gable transitions, and valleys. Each of these features creates a potential dead zone in attic airflow. Standard ridge vents do not work effectively on hip sections, and dormers require their own ventilation circuits. We calculate the required net free area for each attic section and install ventilation solutions that address the specific geometry of each home.

Dense Tree Canopy

Huntington Woods' park-like setting includes the 125-acre Detroit Zoo and extensive residential tree canopy. Mature oaks, maples, and other species shade roofs, drop branches during storms, and deposit leaves that clog gutters and trap moisture in valleys. The shade promotes algae and moss growth, especially on north-facing slopes. Atlas shingles with Scotchgard protector granules resist the algae streaking that is common on shaded Huntington Woods roofs.

80-100 Year Old Homes

Many Huntington Woods homes date to the 1920s and 1930s. These homes are on their third or fourth roof, and the decking underneath may be original lumber or layered with multiple generations of repairs. We strip everything down to the bare structure, inspect every board, and replace any soft, warped, or water-damaged sections. Tudor homes with decorative dormers and half-timbering require extra care during tear-off to protect the architectural details that define these homes.

Wind Exposure on Steep Pitches

Steep-pitch roofs are more exposed to wind than low-slope designs. Metro Detroit averages 30+ thunderstorm days per year, and high winds can lift shingle tabs and blow off ridge caps on steeply pitched surfaces. The older three-tab shingles on Huntington Woods homes are especially vulnerable because the adhesive strip dries out over time. Architectural shingles with enhanced wind ratings provide significantly better wind resistance on steep slopes. If you notice storm damage, call us for a free inspection.

Local Roofing Insights for Huntington Woods

Tudor Quarter

The English Tudor homes along the tree-lined streets near the Detroit Zoo are Huntington Woods at its most iconic. Steeply pitched cross-gable roofs at 10:12 to 12:12 pitches, decorative half-timbering, multiple dormers, and complex valley intersections. These roofs require experienced crews comfortable working at height with proper safety equipment, and meticulous flashing work at every transition point.

Colonial Homes

The colonials throughout Huntington Woods feature hip roofs or side-gable designs with dormers, shuttered windows, and formal symmetry. These larger homes have roof areas of 2,000 to 3,000+ square feet with multiple planes and valleys. Proper flashing at dormer sidewalls, chimney transitions, and wall-to-roof junctions is critical for preventing the slow leaks that can go undetected for years.

Cape Cods and Ranches

Huntington Woods also has Cape Cod and mid-century ranch homes, mostly from the 1940s and 1950s. The Cape Cods have steep gable roofs with dormers, while the ranches have simpler geometry. Both share the ventilation challenges common to homes of this era, and both benefit from the full ventilation analysis we perform on every project.

The City of Homes Standard

Huntington Woods homeowners invest in their properties because this community's character, schools, and location make it a generational home. Average home values around $500,000 mean a quality roof replacement is an investment worth protecting. Our crews understand the standard that Huntington Woods homeowners expect, and we deliver it on every job.

Building Permits & Codes in Huntington Woods

The City of Huntington Woods requires a building permit for roof replacements. Permit applications can be submitted through the BSA online platform. Full-sized plans require an electronic copy and two hard copies submitted to City Hall.

The building department can be reached at 248-541-3500. Payment for permit fees can be made by cash, check, or credit card at the Building Department counter.

We handle all permit paperwork for every Huntington Woods job, from application through final inspection.

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 Huntington Woods roof.

Signs You Need a New Roof in Huntington Woods

Not sure if your roof needs attention? Here are the warning signs Huntington Woods 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.
