Asphalt shingle roof — Ann Arbor, MI
Last updated: September 24, 2026
What affects the price
When you start looking at a new roof, the final number depends on a few specific things. The total surface area is the biggest factor, but the steepness of your roof and how many stories your house has will change the labor intensity. We also look at the current material—stripping off old layers adds to the disposal fees. Choosing between asphalt shingles, metal, or tile shifts the budget significantly. Finally, if we find damaged decking underneath once the old roof is off, that needs replacement to ensure a solid structure. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
About this service
An asphalt shingle roof uses petroleum-based products reinforced with fiberglass or organic mats. This remains the most popular roofing style because it is versatile and cost-effective. You typically need a new installation if your current shingles are losing granules or are nearing the end of their expected lifespan. Expenses depend on the shingle weight, warranty length, and complexity of the roof design. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

What are the pros and cons of a tin roof in Ann Arbor?
A tin roof, often made of galvanized steel, offers excellent durability and longevity in Ann Arbor's climate. It's highly resistant to fire, wind, and impact, making it a resilient choice. However, tin roofs can be more expensive upfront than asphalt shingles and may be prone to denting from heavy hail. Proper installation is also critical to prevent rust. We can help you weigh these factors to decide if a tin roof is the right investment for your home.

They offer a long lifespan and require minimal maintenance, making them a cost-effective choice over time. We can help you determine if this style is a good fit for your home's aesthetic and structural needs.
