Best Roofing and Siding Materials for Troy
Michigan weather is brutal. Troy standards are high.
Here are the materials that deliver on both:
What Roofing Materials Survive Michigan weather?
-
CertainTeed Landmark Pro: Costs about $5-6 more per bundle than basic shingles, but the wind resistance and algae protection are worth it. We see these lasting 25-30 years in Troy’s climate.
-
Metal Roofing Systems: Higher upfront cost, but we’re talking 40-70 year lifespan. Perfect for homeowners planning to stay put long-term.
-
What we skip: Basic 3-tab shingles. They’re cheap for a reason, and that reason becomes obvious after the first major storm.
Siding That Will Survive in Michigan Long-Term
- James Hardie Fiber Cement: Looks like real wood, performs like engineered materials. Lifetime warranty means you’re done worrying about siding issues.
- Diamond Kote Steel: Pre-finished steel that doesn’t fade, dent, or need painting. Perfect for Troy homeowners who prefer spending weekends at Somerset Collection instead of on ladders.
- What we recommend against: Cheap vinyl that gets brittle in our winters, or wood siding unless you enjoy annual maintenance.
What Quality Materials Actually Deliver:
✅ Property Value Protection: Quality materials preserve your $440K+ investment
✅ Professional Image: Your home reflects your success – materials should match
✅ Time Savings: Premium materials mean fewer future headaches and repairs
✅ Energy Efficiency: Better materials = lower heating and cooling costs
✅ Weather Confidence: Michigan storms won’t keep you awake at night

What Sets Us Apart in Troy’s Competitive Market
After 60 years in Southeast Michigan, we’ve learned that Troy homeowners don’t just want good work – they want contractors they can actually trust.
Here’s what makes the difference:
🏢 We Actually Understand Troy’s Unique Character
Most contractors see suburbs. We see a business community where your home is both sanctuary and investment. When your neighbor works at GM’s tech center and you’re commuting to downtown Detroit, timing and quality aren’t negotiable.
👨👩👧👦 Three Generations, Same Standards
Since 1965, the Leach family has built our reputation one satisfied customer at a time. Dennis (our licensed builder) learned from his father, who learned from his grandfather. That’s not just experience – it’s accountability that spans generations.
🛡️ Licensed, Insured, and Actually Available
Dennis pulls every permit personally and handles inspections. Our insurance is comprehensive and current. Most importantly? Lizzie answers the phone 24/7, even weekends. Try getting that from the big corporate crews.
🎯 We Only Use Materials We’d Put on Our Own Homes
CertainTeed Landmark Pro shingles because they actually last. James Hardie fiber cement because it performs. Trex composite decking because it handles Michigan winters. No shortcuts, no substitutions without discussion.
📋 Permits and Paperwork? We Handle All of It
Troy’s building department knows us by name. We pull permits correctly the first time, coordinate inspections, and ensure everything meets local requirements. You don’t lift a finger on the bureaucratic stuff.
⏰ Your Schedule Matters As Much As Ours
We get it – you’re juggling work, kids, and that commute. Our crews show up when promised, clean up daily, and communicate changes immediately. No surprise visits, no “we’ll be there sometime Tuesday.”
