More than shingles

The shingle is only one layer of the roof

Drive through almost any Novi subdivision and you’ll see architectural asphalt shingles. They are the right roof for most homes here: they handle snow and wind, they come in colors that fit nearly any brick or siding, and they are far easier to repair than most other materials.

What separates a shingle roof that lasts from one that fails early is everything underneath. Ice and water shield at the eaves and in every valley, so ice dams can’t push water into the house. Drip edge so meltwater lands in the gutter instead of on the fascia. Proper step and counterflashing where the roof meets the walls of a two-story home. And balanced intake and ridge ventilation, so the attic stays cold in winter and doesn’t bake the shingles in summer.

We install Owens Corning shingles, including the Duration and Duration FLEX lines, as part of that full system. The Design EyeQ visualizer lets you see colors on a house like yours, and we provide the exact product and color names your HOA’s architectural review will ask for.

What goes on your roof

Every layer of a Kincaide shingle roof

Skip one of these and the shingles on top can’t do their job. Here’s what we install and why it matters in Novi.

Architectural shingles

Owens Corning Duration and Duration FLEX lines: thick, dimensional shingles in a wide range of colors.

Owens Corning products

Ice and water protection

A self-sealing membrane at the eaves and in the valleys, where ice dams and melting snow push water uphill.

Built for Michigan winters

Synthetic underlayment

A water-resistant layer over the rest of the decking, the second line of defense if a shingle is lost.

Covers the whole deck

Drip edge and starter

Metal drip edge directs water into the gutter, and a starter strip seals the first course against wind lift.

Edges are where leaks start

Intake and ridge vents

Air in at the soffits and out at the ridge keeps the attic cooler in summer and drier in winter.

Fewer ice dams, longer life

Flashing and ridge caps

New flashing at walls, chimneys and pipes, finished with hip and ridge shingles that match the field.

Your options

Repair, rejuvenate or re-shingle?

Not every tired shingle roof needs to come off. If the damage is limited to a few areas, a repair is the honest answer. If the shingles are drying out and shedding granules but the decking is sound, roof rejuvenation can add years for a fraction of the cost of a new roof.

When the shingles are curling, cracking or leaking in several places, or the decking is soft, it’s time for a new roof. Before you choose a color, you can preview Owens Corning shingles on a photo of your own house with the Design EyeQ visualizer, which helps when an HOA has to approve the color.

“Kincaide roofing went above and beyond our expectations. Scott (the owner) took pictures of every step and fix he made. They were punctual, thorough and very professional. No B.S. with Scott, the communication was straight forward and gave us briefings every night before they left.”

Shingles in Novi neighborhoods

Picking a shingle color that passes review

In much of Novi, the color you choose has to work for the neighborhood as well as for you.

Many Novi subdivisions have homeowner associations with architectural review, and roofing is one of the most common changes they look at. Some keep a list of approved colors; others ask to see a sample next to the brick or siding. Getting that approval before the job is scheduled keeps everything on track.

Roofing questions

Shingle roofing questions from Novi homeowners

Shingle types, colors, HOA approval and what goes under them.

Does my Novi HOA have to approve my shingle color?
Many Novi subdivisions do require architectural review for roofing. Check your HOA documents or ask the management company. We provide the product and color details and samples you need to submit.
Do I need a permit for a new shingle roof in Novi?
A full shingle replacement is typically permitted work. Check with the City of Novi building division for the current requirements for your address.
What is the difference between 3-tab and architectural shingles?
Three-tab shingles are a single flat layer. Architectural shingles are laminated, thicker and give the roof more dimension. Architectural shingles are what we usually recommend for Michigan homes.
What does Duration FLEX offer over regular Duration?
Both are Owens Corning architectural shingle lines. We can show you samples of each at the estimate and help you decide which fits your home and budget.
Why does ventilation matter for a shingle roof?
A hot attic in summer cooks shingles from below, and a warm attic in winter melts snow that refreezes as ice dams. Balanced intake and exhaust venting helps with both.
How do I know when my shingles need replacing?
Curling or cracked shingles, bare spots where granules are gone, shingles missing after wind, and leaks that keep coming back are the main signs. We inspect for free and show you photos.
