What we write about, and why

Every post here answers a question Farmington Hills property owners actually ask before they hire anyone — what work costs, which materials are worth the upcharge, how long a job really takes, and the shortcuts that look fine for two years and then do not.

The writing comes from the same people doing the work in Farmington Hills, MI and southwest Oakland County, which is why the numbers are specific and the advice sometimes tells you not to spend money.

  • Roof Replacement in Farmington HillsThe first question on a replacement here is not shingle color. It is whether the roof is yours or your association's, because in Farmington Hills that answer sits in a recorded master deed, and it decides who is legally able to sign for the work.
  • Roof Leak Repair in Farmington HillsA leak has two separate questions attached to it in this city. Where is the water getting in, and whose roof is it getting in through.
  • Storm Damage Restoration in Farmington HillsOne storm crossing a condominium community produces one event and a dozen separate repairs, and the way those get documented decides whether the association is reimbursed for all of it or some of it. The pattern here is a line of thunderstorms moving in from the west over open ground, hitting the exposed end buildings and the tall trees first.
  • Hail Damage Roofing in Farmington HillsHail in southeast Michigan is real but modest. We get pea and marble sized stones most summers and something bigger every few years, which produces a very different inspection than the Plains, where a single event finishes a roof outright.
  • Wind Damage Roofing in Farmington HillsWind takes roofs apart at the edges, not in the middle. Rake, eave and ridge are where the pressure concentrates, and on a site with several buildings in a row the ones facing the open western approach lose shingles years before the sheltered ones do.
