Farmington Hills Roof Pros provides professional gutters & downspouts in Farmington Hills, MI for residential and commercial properties across southwest Oakland County. Gutters are the clearest example of why we read the deed. In a great many Farmington Hills communities the roof is a general common element and the gutter hanging off it is a limited common element assigned to the unit, which means one wall and two payers.
So the paperwork splits. The association gets a document for the deck and the covering, the co-owner gets a separate one for the gutter, the downspout and the discharge, and neither invoice crosses the line. It sounds pedantic until a board refuses a bill that included somebody's downspout and the whole job stalls for a month. Managing agents deal with this every week and they appreciate somebody arriving with it already sorted.
The physical problem in this city is volume of debris rather than volume of water. The canopy over these neighborhoods is unusually heavy for the metro, and a gutter under mature maples fills with seed and leaf mold faster than the twice-a-year habit most owners have. Standing organic sludge holds water against the fascia all winter. Twice a year is not enough under mature maples, and most owners learn that the hard way.
Our default is six-inch seamless aluminum on three-inch downspouts rather than the five-inch standard, hung on hidden hangers at two-foot spacing screwed into solid wood. The extra capacity costs very little on a re-hang and it is the difference between a gutter that clears a summer downpour and one that sheets over the front edge every time.
Discharge is the part everyone skips. Much of this city drains to swales and ditches rather than curb inlets, so a downspout that dumps at the foundation has nowhere to go. We run extensions to daylight, into a swale or a dry well, and we never let one discharge onto a lower shingle roof, which wears a stripe through the granules in a decade. Splash blocks at the foundation are decoration rather than drainage.
On guards we land somewhere unusual. We think they are worth it on second-story runs and steep rear elevations you would need a forty-foot ladder to reach, and not worth it anywhere you can service from a step ladder. Buy micro-mesh that fastens to the gutter itself, never the reverse-curve type that slides under the first shingle course, because on a common-element roof that is an alteration of the association's asset and it voids the shingle warranty.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — self-adhered ice barrier at the eave course, laminated architectural shingles rated to ASTM D3161 Class F, six-nail fastening pattern on every course, aluminum-wrapped pine sub-fascia, draftstopped attic partition above a party wall, cricket saddle framed behind a wide chimney — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Farmington Hills and nearby communities including Farmington, Livonia, Northville, Plymouth.

Materials, equipment and how we do gutters & downspouts
The difference between gutters & downspouts that lasts and gutters & downspouts that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with self-adhered ice barrier at the eave course, laminated architectural shingles rated to ASTM D3161 Class F, six-nail fastening pattern on every course, aluminum-wrapped pine sub-fascia, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Farmington Hills job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in southwest Oakland County means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Farmington Hills Chooses Farmington Hills Roof Pros
- ✓We ask for the master deed and the bylaws before we measure anything, because the article listing general common elements decides who is legally allowed to buy this roof.
- ✓On a detached site condominium the home and its roof are yours, and we say so plainly instead of sending you to a board with no authority over either.
- ✓Association quotes arrive per building with a remaining-life column, so twelve roofs can be phased across three budget years rather than funded by one special assessment.
- ✓Gutters and chimneys get their own document when the deed assigns them to the co-owner and the deck to the association, because a single invoice cannot cross that line.
