Roofing in Redford, MI
Redford Township publishes the arithmetic, so here it is in full. Every building permit carries a fifteen dollar application fee. Roofs only are exempt from the plan review fee, and anything beyond roof only must include one. Builder registration with the township runs twenty-seven dollars on top of the state license.
On a strip and reroof valued at a thousand dollars or less the permit fee is twenty-two, so the whole file costs thirty-seven dollars with the review waived. Starting work without that permit costs fifty-six, and a re-inspection costs fifty-six again. There is no version of this arithmetic worth skipping.
That matters more here than in Bloomfield Hills because median home value in Redford is 155,600 dollars, the lowest of any community we serve. A thirty-seven dollar permit against a roof on a house at that value is not a barrier to anybody, and its absence at closing very much is.
Redford is a charter township, and the state's jurisdiction list names the Township of Redford as the local enforcing agency on all four disciplines. The county program in Wayne shut on 11 May 2000, so a Redford parcel filed with Detroit is a permit that does not exist on any record.
The heaviest thunderstorm-wind damage figure in the two-county record we searched belongs to this township. On 21 July 1998 a 68 mph gust logged eighteen million dollars in property damage across the area. On 23 April 2001 a spotter in Redford measured a 65 mph gust rather than estimating one from a porch.
Not all of that file is local. A hail report filed under Redford on 20 April 2003 has coordinates twenty-six miles away, up in northern Oakland County. We read the latitude before we read the label, and we do it on our own quotes as readily as we do it on somebody else's.
Ninety-three and a half percent of structures here are single-unit detached and only 1.1 percent are attached, so the deed question this company usually opens with almost never applies in Redford. Wayne County's ground snow load of 20 pounds per square foot is the lowest band anywhere in Michigan, five pounds under Oakland. A dormer here designed to the Oakland column is over-built rather than unsafe, but you paid for the difference.
About Redford, MI — and why local matters here
Redford sits in Wayne County with a population of roughly 49,504, close enough to Farmington Hills that crews move between the two constantly. Local landmarks and corridors residents know well include the Redford Theatre, Bell Creek Park.
Local knowledge is not a marketing line here. Redford properties share soil, weather, permit rules and construction eras with the rest of Wayne County, and a roofing contractor who works the area weekly already knows what fails locally and what holds up. That is the difference between a bid and an accurate bid.

Roofing work we do in Redford, MI
Farmington Hills Roof Pros covers the same range of work in Redford that we do in Farmington Hills — nothing is carved out because the address is a few miles up the road:
- Storm Damage Restoration — One storm crossing a condominium community produces one event and a dozen separate repairs, and the way those get documented decides whether the association is reimbursed for all of it or some of it. The pattern here is a line of thunderstorms moving in from the west over open ground, hitting the exposed end buildings and the tall trees first.
- Hail Damage Roofing — Hail in southeast Michigan is real but modest. We get pea and marble sized stones most summers and something bigger every few years, which produces a very different inspection than the Plains, where a single event finishes a roof outright.
- Wind Damage Roofing — Wind takes roofs apart at the edges, not in the middle. Rake, eave and ridge are where the pressure concentrates, and on a site with several buildings in a row the ones facing the open western approach lose shingles years before the sheltered ones do.
- Roof Inspections — An inspection on a single house ends in a verdict. An inspection on a condominium community ends in a table, and confusing the two is how associations get surprised by a roof they thought had another decade in it.
- Asphalt Shingle Roofs — Asphalt covers nearly every sloped roof in this city, and on an association property it comes with a problem no single-family house has. All the buildings are supposed to match, and shingle lines get discontinued about every seven years.
- Metal Roofing — Metal is the one product where the ownership question changes the answer completely, and we give two different recommendations depending on which side of the master deed your roof falls on. If the roof is a general common element, our advice is usually to leave it alone.
