Roofers in Metro Detroit area?
Hello, I could use some advice about roofers.
I need to replace a roof on a duplex in Hamtramck Michigan soon, and I was wondering if anybody here has had good experiences with a reputable (yet budget friendly) roofing company around metro Detroit? The roof is about 20 squares, with the original cedar shake shingles + asphalt shingles on top. Roofers say that the cedar shake is a pain for them to deal with, so they charge more because of that. Still, I have been quoted $14k to $20k for materials and labor, which seems ridiculously expensive to me. I was thinking something around $10k would be reasonable? I'm still fishing for quotes, so I'm not sure what a reasonable price would really be.
Any advice or referrals is appreciated.
