At Schoenherr Roofing, we know that one of the first questions Michigan homeowners ask is, “How much is a new roof going to cost?” The honest answer is that roof pricing depends on several factors specific to your home. No two roofs are the same, and even homes in the same neighborhood can vary significantly. The sections below explain what goes into roof pricing so you can better understand your estimate and make an informed decision.
We price roofing based on total roof surface area, not the square footage of your home’s interior. Roofing is measured in squares, with one square equal to 100 square feet. Roof size is influenced by:
Roof pitch
Overhangs
Attached garages
Multi-level designs
This is why we use satellite measurements when generating online estimates. It allows us to start with an accurate view of your roof before ever stepping on your property.
The slope and design of your roof play a major role in pricing. Steeper roofs require additional safety measures and take more time to install. Costs can increase when a roof includes:
Multiple valleys or hips
Dormers or architectural features
Skylights or chimneys
Steep or hard-to-access sections
Many Michigan homes include architectural details that add complexity, and we account for this during the estimating process.
Material choice has a significant impact on cost and long-term performance. We install a variety of roofing systems, including:
Architectural asphalt shingles
Premium and designer shingles
Impact-resistant shingles
Metal roofing systems
Each option differs in price, lifespan, warranty coverage, and weather resistance. Michigan’s climate often leads homeowners to choose materials designed to handle snow loads, wind, and hail.
Most roof replacements we perform in Michigan involve a full tear-off of the existing roof. The scope of tear-off depends on how many layers are currently installed and the type of materials being removed. A proper tear-off allows us to:
Inspect the roof deck
Identify hidden issues
Install modern underlayment systems
Meet current building code requirements
These steps are essential for long-term roof performance and are reflected in the overall cost.
Once the old roofing is removed, the condition of the roof decking becomes clear. We frequently see decking issues near chimneys, valleys, and areas affected by long-term moisture or ice dams. Common issues include:
Rotted plywood
Soft or weakened decking
Previous repair patches
Any damaged decking must be replaced to ensure your new roof is installed correctly and performs as intended.
Michigan winters require roofing systems with enhanced moisture protection. We install ice and water shield along:
Roof edges
Valleys
Penetrations such as chimneys and vents
This added protection helps reduce the risk of ice dams and winter leaks. The amount of protection required depends on roof design and local building standards.
Proper attic ventilation plays a key role in roof longevity and energy efficiency. Many older Michigan homes are under-ventilated, which can lead to moisture buildup and premature roof wear. During a roof replacement, we may recommend:
Adding ridge vents
Improving intake airflow
Balancing exhaust ventilation
These improvements support long-term performance and can influence overall pricing.
Roof pricing reflects the quality of installation and safety practices used on the job. At Schoenherr Roofing, we account for:
Trained and insured installation crews
Manufacturer-approved installation standards
Proper safety procedures
Permits and inspections
We also factor in weather-related scheduling considerations and local code compliance to ensure every roof meets Michigan requirements.
As an Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor, we are able to offer enhanced manufacturer warranties that are only available through certified installers. These warranties provide:
Extended material coverage
Stronger workmanship protection
Added peace of mind
Higher certification levels require strict installation standards, which are built into our pricing and process.
Roof pricing in Michigan can vary based on:
Time of year
Storm activity
Material availability
Overall market demand
Peak roofing seasons often bring higher demand and tighter schedules. Planning ahead allows us to help you navigate timing while maintaining quality and attention to detail.
