Leonard sits just a short drive northwest of our Romeo headquarters at 102 W St Clair Street, only about eight to nine miles up into Addison Township. For a small rural village that most metro contractors treat as too far to bother with, that closeness matters. When a Leonard homeowner calls about a leak, our crew is coming from right down the road, not across the county.
That short drive keeps small problems small. On Leonard’s older homes, water can chase its way through original framing before it ever shows on a ceiling, so getting a technician on the roof quickly is what keeps a minor repair from becoming a soaked ceiling. Being headquartered nearby in Romeo is exactly why we can get out to Leonard fast.
Leonard is a village of under 400 people in the northeast corner of Addison Township, and it wears its history proudly. It grew up around the Pontiac, Oxford & Northern Railroad in the 1880s, took its name from businessman Leonard Rowland when the post office opened in 1884, and incorporated in 1889. The multi-story grain elevator and beanery built that same year still stands downtown, the subject of an ongoing effort to save it, and the village works hard to keep its rural, historic character intact.
That heritage shows on the rooftops. Leonard is full of preserved 19th-century and early-1900s homes with steep, detailed rooflines, mixed in with farmhouses and newer rural builds on larger lots. From ornate old village homes to open-country farmhouses, it’s exactly the kind of older, varied housing stock where roof repair takes real experience. Many of these homes have stood through more than a century of Michigan winters, and their roofs carry the layered repairs and aging flashing that come with that kind of history.
On the historic village homes, leaks almost always start at the details rather than the open shingles. Worn chimney flashing, aging step flashing at the many wall-to-roof transitions, and tired valley metal are the classic failure points, and on a preserved century-old home water can travel a long way through old framing before it shows inside. Decades of re-roofing can also leave layered materials and brittle underlayment hiding underneath.
The open, rural setting adds its own stresses. Farmhouses and homes on open lots take wind with no windbreak, so we find lifted shingles and loosened ridge caps after storms, while wooded rural properties collect limbs and leaf litter in their valleys. Michigan’s freeze-thaw winters pry at any loose joint and drive ice dams onto the eaves of older, under-insulated homes. Caught early, almost all of it is a repair, and on a historic Leonard home an early inspection protects both the roof and the character underneath it.
In a village this small and this tight-knit, a contractor’s reputation is everything, because everyone hears how a job went. That keeps us honest. We’d rather reflash a historic roof correctly once than be the name a Leonard homeowner warns a neighbor about. We’ve served Southeast Michigan from our Romeo base since 1995, and rural communities like Leonard are exactly the kind we were built to reach.
Roof problems are never pleasant. Keeping your roof well-maintained is crucial to protecting your home—and Schoenherr Roofing is just a phone call away. Deciding between a simple repair or a full replacement starts with assessing the damage. Factors like roof type, age, and the severity of the issue all play a role.
At Schoenherr Roofing, we perform comprehensive inspections on all roof types, from asphalt shingles to metal roofs. We identify visible issues like missing shingles and hidden problems such as attic leaks. Our experienced team offers customized solutions to restore your roof’s strength and integrity.
Leonard, MI experiences extreme seasonal changes—scorching summers and freezing winters—that can gradually wear down your roof, especially if it’s made of common materials like asphalt shingles.
Strong winds can lift or tear off shingles, exposing your roof to leaks. Snow accumulation can lead to ice dams, which block proper drainage and cause water to seep into your home.
Delaying repairs often leads to bigger, more expensive problems. Tackling issues early helps protect your home and avoid costly replacements.
Unsure when to call a roofer? Some signs are easy to notice, while others are more subtle. Missing, cracked, or curling shingles can indicate wear and tear. Water stains on your ceilings or walls might point to a leak. A sagging roofline could suggest structural issues, and granules from shingles in your gutters may signal aging.
Moss or algae growth on your roof could mean trapped moisture. If your asphalt shingle roof is 20–25 years old, it’s wise to schedule a professional inspection to determine how much longer it will last.

Not at all. Leonard is only about eight to nine miles from our Romeo headquarters, so it’s close to home for us even though many metro contractors treat it as out of range. We schedule Leonard repairs with the same urgency as any closer town, because a leak damages an old roof just as fast in a small village as anywhere else.
Yes. Leonard’s preserved railroad-era and early-1900s homes have steep, detailed rooflines with plenty of valleys, dormers, and flashing joints that need careful access and detailed work. We repair those complex older roofs, reseal the flashing and valleys, and blend the shingle work in so the fix seals without disturbing the home’s historic character.
On Leonard’s century-old homes, the shingles often still look fine while the actual leak is coming from worn chimney flashing, aging step flashing, or tired valley metal. Those detailed rooflines have many wall-to-roof transitions, and each one is a place water can enter. We trace the leak to the real joint and repair it rather than patching the ceiling stain beneath it.
Yes. Beyond the village core, Leonard and the surrounding Addison Township are full of farmhouses and rural homes on open and wooded lots. Those properties often take more wind on exposed roofs and more tree debris on shaded ones, and our crews are equipped to access and repair roofs in those rural conditions.
Homes on open lots and farmland around Leonard take wind with no windbreak to slow it down, which lifts and tears shingles and loosens ridge caps. After a storm we look for missing and creased shingles, exposed nail heads, and damaged flashing, then make the roof watertight and repair the affected sections before water gets into the deck.
Our Romeo headquarters is only about eight to nine miles from Leonard, so we can usually get out quickly. For an active leak we prioritize getting on the roof, making it watertight the same visit when needed, then scheduling the permanent repair. Being based nearby is exactly why Leonard homeowners don’t have to wait while water keeps working into old framing.
