Roof repair in Madison Heights.
Repairs only.
Madison Heights sits between Royal Oak, Troy, and Warren — compact lots, postwar homes, and roofs that fail at boots and flashings long before the field is finished. Repairs only, published prices.
What Madison Heights roofs are made of
Dense mid-century housing means small roofs with chimneys, dormers, and multiple penetrations. That’s repair territory: find the entry point, fix the detail, prove it with photos.
What we find here
Three failures we open up most often in Madison Heights.
Dormer and sidewall flashing
Tight lots and additions create long step-flashing runs that leak into closets and soffits when installed wrong.
Prior patch jobs
Tar over a valley or chimney joint fails again. We rebuild the detail instead of adding another smear.
Where in Madison Heights we work
Streets off John R, Dequindre, 11 Mile, and 12 Mile — including borders toward Royal Oak, Troy, Warren, and Hazel Park.
Most Madison Heights leak calls are scheduled within 48 hours. Active leaks get priority for emergency tarping.
Permits and repairs
Routine repairs are typically simpler than a permitted re-roof. We’ll tell you if paperwork changes before we start.
Same terms: flat price, photo report, written warranty.
Madison Heights FAQ
Roof repair questions we hear in Madison Heights.
My small roof has several vents. Should I swap out all the boots at once?
Often, yes. The first pipe boot is $395 and each additional boot on the same visit is $145, because the truck is already there (price book). If the others are the same age, swapping them out together usually saves a second trip.
Someone put tar over our valley or chimney joint and it's leaking again. What now?
Roof cement over a failed detail buys a season. We remove the patch and rebuild the flashing or valley properly — step flashing partial $650–$950, valley partial $850–$1,250 — and leave before-and-after photos.
