Taylor Premium Roofing provides professional asphalt shingle roofs in Taylor, MI for residential and commercial properties across Downriver Wayne County. Asphalt is the right covering for effectively every house in this city, and the interesting decisions all sit underneath it. Our estimates spend more lines on the eave assembly and the air path than on which laminate you picked off the sample board.
Start with the thing most homeowners are never told: nearly every shingle warranty in the industry is conditioned on the attic being ventilated to code. Buy a fifty-year laminate, lay it over an attic whose intake was buried under blown fill in 2003, and you have bought a fifty-year piece of paper attached to a roof that will cook from underneath. The manufacturer will point at the ventilation clause and they will be right.
So the intake work is quoted with the shingle rather than after it. Chutes into every rafter bay, fill raked back off the top plate, a continuous slot cut in the soffit board where the original one is short, and only then a ridge vent sized to what the intake can actually feed. Exhaust that outruns intake pulls conditioned air up through your ceiling instead of drawing outside air along the deck.
Underlayment decides a Michigan roof. Self-adhered ice barrier has to run from the edge of the eave to a point inside the heated wall below it, which on a twelve-inch box eave is a measurement rather than an assumption that one course reaches. Synthetic sheet takes the rest of the field on cap fasteners. Felt is not something we leave a stripped roof sitting under while weather is coming in.
On product we usually argue downward, and it is the arithmetic rather than modesty. A good thirty-year architectural laid correctly outlives most owners' plans for a house in this market by a wide margin. The difference between that and a premium fifty-year line, on a median Taylor house, is very close to what the whole ventilation scope costs. One of those two purchases changes how long the roof lasts.
Workmanship is the unglamorous remainder and it is most of the outcome. Fasteners placed in the nailing zone the manufacturer prints on the wrapper, at the count printed beside it. Gun pressure set by hand on the first square each morning. Starter along the eave and up the rake, metal on all four edges, and the bare deck photographed before a single shingle covers any of it.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — blown cellulose settled over the eave top plate, corrugated vent chutes fitted bay by bay, a perforated intake strip cut into the original soffit board, a rigid insulation dam holding fill back off the deck, the one-inch clear air space required above insulation, supplemental attic fill laid over original 1960s blanket — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Taylor and nearby communities including Southgate, Allen Park, Lincoln Park, Wyandotte.

Materials, equipment and how we do asphalt shingle roofs
The difference between asphalt shingle roofs that lasts and asphalt shingle roofs that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with blown cellulose settled over the eave top plate, corrugated vent chutes fitted bay by bay, a perforated intake strip cut into the original soffit board, a rigid insulation dam holding fill back off the deck, 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 Taylor 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 Downriver Wayne County means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Taylor Chooses Taylor Premium Roofing
- ✓We measure how deep the insulation sits over your top plate before pricing anything, because on this housing that number decides whether a new roof will stay dry.
- ✓Thousands of houses here were sound-insulated under an airport noise program that never touched the roof. We ask whether yours was one, and we scope it differently if it was.
- ✓Intake is restored before any exhaust is added. We will decline to sell a ridge vent over a buried soffit and explain why at more length than you want.
- ✓The air path is a separate priced line beside the covering, with a figure for chutes, a figure for soffit work and a figure for ridge, so you can strike any of them.
