Roofing Company in Novi, MI

Most Novi roof replacements run from eight thousand to fifteen thousand dollars with architectural asphalt shingles. The 1,500 to 2,200 square foot homes in Village Oaks and the similar 1970s and early 1980s houses in Meadowbrook Glens and Turtle Creek typically land in the low to mid range. The larger Toll Brothers homes in Island Lake of Novi, with complex rooflines and multiple valleys, usually price toward the higher end. We provide free estimates with exact measurements, and the quote includes permit costs.

Yes. Building permits are required for roof replacement in Novi, administered under the Michigan Residential Code through the Community Development Department Building Division at 45175 Ten Mile Rd (248-347-0415), with online applications through the city's BS&A portal. Per the published fee schedule, costs include an application fee plus a permit fee scaled to the job value. Homeowners can pull owner-builder permits for their own work, but when we do the job, we file the permit, schedule the inspections, and include the cost in your estimate.

It does. Homes near Walled Lake and Shawood Lake at the north end of the city take wind off the open water with little to slow it down, and the newer subdivisions across Novi add a second factor: younger tree canopy means more open exposure than in older, established neighborhoods. Wind-lifted and creased shingles often are not visible from the ground, so after a major storm it is worth a free inspection, especially for lake-adjacent homes. We document everything with drone images for your records or your insurance claim.

Village Oaks went up between 1970 and 1975, Meadowbrook Glens added 283 homes from 1976 to 1981, and Turtle Creek followed with 122 homes from 1978 to 1984. Homes of that era were built with minimal attic ventilation by modern standards, so warm air collects in the attic, melts snow at the ridge, and the meltwater refreezes at the cold eaves and backs up under the shingles. The permanent fix is correcting the ventilation and installing ice and water shield well past code minimum during replacement, which is standard on every roof we install.

Michigan Residential Code, which applies statewide, allows a maximum of two layers of asphalt shingles. If your roof already has two layers, a full tear-off is required. Even when a second layer is technically allowed, we almost always recommend tearing off: it lets us inspect and repair the decking, install ice and water shield and modern underlayment, and fix the ventilation, none of which happens when you shingle over problems. Many of Novi's 1970s and 1980s roofs are carrying old layers already, and we check during the free inspection.

The paperwork and the people. A good roofer carries a Michigan residential builder license you can verify through LARA, plus general liability and workers compensation insurance, and puts the workmanship warranty in writing with a real term behind it. Then ask who is on the roof: a trained in-house crew, or whichever subcontractor was available that week. Finally, look at the money. A contractor who wants thousands down before a shingle moves is asking you to carry their risk. We take no deposits at all, so the incentive to finish right stays exactly where it belongs.
