Roofing in Farmington, MI
Farmington is the oldest housing stock we cover in Oakland County, and it changes the argument this company usually makes. Median year built 1966. Fifty-six percent of it standing before 1970. Only 3.2 percent built since 2000. In Novi those figures are 1992, eight percent and thirty-three percent.
Simpler roofs follow from that, and simpler roofs cost less to cover. Fewer valleys, fewer hips, fewer roof-to-wall runs, and a great deal less material cut off and thrown away. We say so and take the waste percentage down rather than applying one blanket allowance across the county. Honest measurement has to cut both ways or it is not measurement.
The city runs its own building department inside Planning and Building on Grand River, and it is not contracted to Farmington Hills, which is the assumption almost everybody makes. The two cities share a district court, not a building official. Permits, plan review and inspections all come from Farmington's own counter.
The fee is a formula rather than a flat rate: a fifty dollar administration base, fifty dollars for the first thousand dollars of value, then fifteen dollars for each additional thousand, with the value rounded up and taken from the ICC square-foot table posted each July. That is a steeper per-thousand rate than any neighboring town we checked.
One caution about that document. The only effective date printed anywhere on it reads 2015, on the engineering pages, and there is no date at all on the building fee pages. It is the schedule the city links today, so it is what you will be quoted, but we confirm the figure by phone before it goes into a contract.
The weather log is the quietest in the footprint. Eleven events since 2010 and a largest hailstone of three quarters of an inch, recorded 6 May 2018. That is the smallest maximum anywhere in these twenty-six towns, and it is worth knowing before anybody suggests a hail claim on a Farmington roof.
What actually fails on this stock is age and detail rather than storm. Board decking that has been walked for sixty years, original flashings never stepped, and boots long past their material life. We report those component by component, because on a house this age the field and the flashings are on entirely separate clocks.
Roofing work we do in Farmington, MI
Novi Premium Roofing covers the same range of work in Farmington that we do in Novi — nothing is carved out because the address is a few miles up the road:
- Roof Coatings & Sealing — There is a narrow honest use for coatings in Novi and a very wide dishonest one, and the dishonest one is currently being sold door to door in this city. So this page is mostly a refusal.
- Roof Ventilation — Ventilation on Novi housing starts from an unusual place: the system is already there. This stock shipped with continuous ridge vent and vented soffit as standard, so unlike older metro housing the question is not whether it exists but whether the roof shape left it enough to work with.
- Skylights — Skylights on Novi houses are usually original and usually sited by somebody looking at a floor plan rather than at a roof. That is why so many of them are in the wrong place, and placement matters more than the unit you buy.
- Fascia & Soffit — Fascia and soffit on Novi housing fails at the returns, and the returns exist because of the roof shape. Every gable lands in a small boxed corner where the rake trim dies into the eave, and each one is a water trap.
- Chimney Flashing — Chimneys on this housing are mostly framed chases rather than masonry stacks, built around a metal flue for a gas fireplace and finished in brick veneer or siding. They fail differently from a real chimney and they need to be treated differently.
- Commercial Roofing — Novi's commercial roofing is a different business from its houses. The stock along the I-96 and M-5 corridors is office, flex, retail and a heavy concentration of engineering and research space, nearly all of it low-slope and nearly all of it mid-life.

About Farmington, MI — and why local matters here
Farmington sits in Oakland County with a population of roughly 11,597, close enough to Novi that crews move between the two constantly. Local landmarks and corridors residents know well include Shiawassee Park on the Rouge, the Grand River Avenue downtown block.
Local knowledge is not a marketing line here. Farmington properties share soil, weather, permit rules and construction eras with the rest of Oakland County, and a roofing contractor who works the area weekly already knows what fails locally and what holds up. That is the difference between a bid and an accurate bid.
