Roof Replacement Needed

Hello, I was looking to replace a reasonably small roof and was given a crazy quote. I am hoping someone can recommend reliable roofing contractors in Michigan. The house is on Lake Huron in Lexington just north of Port Huron. I am looking to get the shingles replaced and there are a few spots where the wood underneath needs to be torn out and replaced. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Sorry we're not closer!  But, we could use a break from this extreme heat down here in the Dallas, TX area.  Fly us up there and I'm sure we can work something out! lol

Keep in mind, materials prices are still crazy right now, and still going up.  Lumber seems to be coming down now (thank goodness) but all other things not, they still keep going up! (we got notice of ANOTHER price increase from our suppliers in early August!)  :((

Biggest thing to look for, NOT the cheapest, but FAIR pricing, and ... the Warranty they give!  And if it's a 1yr old company, giving a 10yr warranty... ummmm, no thanks! :P

Good luck and let me know if you have questions I can help with.  (J's Roofing)

There are two companies in Yale that I've heard good things from. One is Moza Construction and the other is Special Touch Builders. I think either one can help you with getting the roof replaced!

Thanks for the information! I have already gotten one quote that was outrageous so I am hoping to find something a little less but I will be sure to avoid the fishy-looking companies! Hopefully, prices will start to come down soon...

Nathan, sorry to say, material prices are not coming "down" anytime soon. :(  I/we are surprised that lumber has FINALLY started coming down. (they planted a LOT, but didn't think it would catch up this quickly to help supply).  Wish you luck on the project!
