If you need a new shingle roof in Traverse City, here's what matters: fiberglass mat construction with ceramic granulated coating for UV protection and fire rating. Architectural shingles carry a Class A fire rating and wind resistance ratings up to 130 mph. Traverse City Roofing & Maintenance helps you pick the right shingle for your home and budget.
Every shingle roof starts with the layers beneath the shingles. Synthetic underlayment rolls across the entire roof deck as the primary waterproof barrier. Ice-and-water shield goes down in the valleys, along the eaves, and around every penetration — chimney flashing, pipe boots, vent boots. Drip edge along every eave and rake directs water into the gutters instead of behind the fascia.
Our Shingle Roofing Process
Free Roof Estimate
Free on-site inspection. We measure, assess your roof deck condition, and walk you through architectural vs. three-tab shingles with realistic pricing. No pressure, just facts.
Strip & Inspect
Old roof stripped to bare deck. We inspect the plywood or OSB sheathing for structural integrity, replace any compromised boards, and prep a clean, solid substrate for the new underlayment and shingles.
Ice Shield & Drip Edge
Ice-and-water shield bonded at valleys and eave lines. Synthetic underlayment over the full deck. New aluminum drip edge at every eave and rake. All flashing — chimney, pipe, vent, wall — sealed and secured before a single shingle goes down.
Shingle Installation
Asphalt shingles laid from eave to ridge with precise offset between courses. Every shingle fastened in the manufacturer's nailing zone — too high or too low voids the warranty. Ridge cap and hip shingles complete the system with ridge vents for balanced attic ventilation.
