Permits & rules in Michigan
Michigan requires a building permit for full roof replacements in most jurisdictions. Repairs under a certain square footage (varies by municipality) may be exempt. Detroit and Grand Rapids enforce permit requirements strictly. Full tear-off and replacement; check local ordinance for repair thresholds Ice dam formation is a significant concern in Michigan, ice-and-water shield is required by code at eaves and valleys and should extend a minimum of 24 inches past the interior wall line. Ventilation is critical: inadequate soffit-to-ridge airflow is the leading cause of premature shingle failure in cold climates. Most Michigan contractors are booked 4–8 weeks out in spring (April–June) after winter damage season.
