Roofing in Wayne County, MI
Wayne County's housing is some of Michigan's oldest and most varied — Detroit's brick Tudors and Craftsman bungalows, the post-war ranches of Dearborn and Livonia, the tidy neighborhoods of Downriver — and Guthix Roofing, a licensed and insured local company (MI Builder License #262600716) headquartered in Wyandotte, handles roof and gutter replacements county-wide. Most full tear-off replacements with architectural shingles land between roughly $6,500 and $13,500, with compact bungalows at the bottom of that range and larger two-story homes at the top. That spread is exactly why a one-size-fits-all quote rarely fits here. We measure every roof precisely from satellite imagery — you can get your own number in about a minute at guthixroofing.com/quote — and a free on-site inspection confirms every figure before you commit to anything.
Local knowledge, honest pricing
We install Owens Corning Duration® architectural asphalt shingles built to take on Wayne County's freeze-thaw winters, lake-effect snow, and summer storms. Whether your roof is a century old or a few decades in, we'll tell you straight what it needs — no pressure, no guesswork.
What Wayne County roofs need
Why do older Wayne County roofs need a full tear-off?
Much of Wayne County's housing was built before 1960, and plenty of those roofs have been shingled over more than once. We strongly recommend a full tear-off to bare decking so we can catch hidden rot, soft spots, and old leaks before they're sealed under a new roof — the kind of problem a quick layover hides until it gets expensive.
What does a roof need to survive Detroit-area weather?
Between freeze-thaw cycles, ice dams along long eaves, and wind off the river, Wayne County roofs take a beating. Proper attic ventilation, ice-and-water shield in the valleys and eaves, and watertight flashing aren't upsells here — they're what makes a roof actually last.

Your questions, answered straight
All of it — Detroit and the surrounding cities including Dearborn, Livonia, Canton, Westland, Redford, and the Downriver communities. If you're in Wayne County and not sure, just ask.
Most Wayne County cities require a building permit for a roof replacement. We handle the permitting as part of the job and follow all local and Michigan building codes, so you're not chasing paperwork.
It can be. Michigan code generally limits a roof to two layers, and a second layer hides the decking from inspection. We almost always recommend a full tear-off so we can fix what's underneath and give you the longest-lasting result.
