Telegraph Rd and Ford Rd carry most of Dearborn Heights' commercial development, running past Henry Ford College and through a mix of strip malls, office buildings, and light commercial space that varies noticeably by section of the city. Older buildings near Warren Ave in the south end tend to have smaller, older flat roofs, while newer construction toward the Telegraph and Ford Rd intersection runs larger TPO and EPDM systems on more recently built structures. Lincoln Park Roofing built that reputation with the same in-house crew since 1990.
About half of commercial roof failures nationally come down to how the roof was originally installed rather than the membrane simply wearing out, according to the National Roofing Contractors Association, and Dearborn Heights' mix of building ages means we're regularly comparing an older original install against a newer one on properties just a few blocks apart. Michigan's commercial code sets the baseline for drainage and flashing regardless of when the building went up, and we check every Dearborn Heights roof against it before quoting repair or replacement.

Written scope & timeline
“Dearborn Heights is really two different cities stacked on top of each other commercially. South end near Warren Ave has older, smaller buildings closer to Detroit. North end toward Ford Rd and Telegraph has newer strip malls and office space. We treat them differently, because the roofs out there are genuinely different ages and different systems even though they're both technically the same city.”

6 Commercial Roofing Issues We See Every Week in Dearborn Heights
Pre-war bungalows and post-war Cape Cods built 1942-1955 in south Dearborn Heights, plus 1960s-70s ranches and bi-levels in the north end — many with multiple shingle layers and aging plywood decking underneath. These are the failure modes our crew documents most often on Dearborn Heights commercial roofing calls:
Ponding water on flat roofs
Older commercial buildings near Warren Ave in the south end tend to have flatter, more settled roof decks, and ponding after storms is more pronounced there than on the newer construction toward Ford Rd.
EPDM seam separation
South Dearborn Heights buildings closer to the Detroit border often still run original EPDM from decades back, with seam separation at parapet walls being the most common failure point we find during inspection.
Failing TPO seams
Newer commercial buildings near the Telegraph and Ford Rd intersection typically use TPO, and those welded seams are starting to hit the 15 to 20 year mark where thermal cycling breaks the weld down.
Metal roof rust & panel gaps
A handful of light industrial buildings near Michigan Ave use standing-seam metal roofs, and fastener corrosion combined with panel shift is the primary issue on those older systems.
Clogged roof drains & scuppers
Roof drains on buildings near Hines Park and the sections of Dearborn Heights with heavier tree cover clog faster than average because of leaf and branch debris, and a blocked drain there can trap well over a thousand gallons before it's visible from the parking lot.
Leaks around HVAC curbs
Office and retail buildings along Ford Rd run a lot of rooftop HVAC equipment, and flashing failure around those curbs is consistently the earliest sign of a developing leak we find during routine visits.
How often should a Dearborn Heights commercial flat roof be inspected?
Dearborn Heights commercial roofs should get inspected twice a year, spring to check winter damage to seams and drains, fall to catch debris before snow season locks it in. Buildings near Hines Park and the sections of the city with heavier tree cover especially benefit from the fall visit, since leaf and branch debris there builds up faster than on the more open Telegraph Rd corridor. We offer annual maintenance contracts for Dearborn Heights commercial properties covering both visits.
Commercial Roofing Cost in Dearborn Heights, MI (2026)
Most Dearborn Heights commercial roofing projects cost between $3,500 and $45,000. Flat-roof leak repair on a small commercial building start at $2,500. Timeline: 1-5 days depending on system and square footage.
Commercial roof work in Dearborn Heights ranges from around $3,500 for a smaller leak repair on an older Warren Ave building to $45,000 for a full replacement on a larger office or retail building near Ford Rd or Telegraph. Because the city has such a mix of building ages, we see wider cost variation here than in more uniform commercial corridors, older buildings in the south end sometimes need more extensive deck work along with the membrane, which pushes cost up regardless of square footage.
“A property manager near Henry Ford College told us she called three roofers before us, and we were the first crew to actually show up for the scheduled walkthrough. Our team climbed onto the roof, found the real source of a persistent leak near an HVAC curb, fixed it, and didn't try to push a full replacement she hadn't asked about. She said that kind of straightforward service was exactly why she called us back for a second building a year later.”
