This is our home city. Lincoln Park Roofing has run out of Thomas St since 1990, and the brick bungalows, ranches, and 1.5 story Cape Cods along Fort St, Dix-Toledo Hwy, and Outer Dr are the roofs Scott Kincaide's crew knows best in the entire service area. Most of this housing stock went up between 1925 and 1965 with steep pitches and original wood decking still under multiple shingle layers in a lot of cases. Near Council Point Park and the Pagel Ave corridor, it's common to find homes that haven't seen a full tear-off since before the current owners bought them. Every job traces back to the same in-house crew Lincoln Park Roofing has run since 1990.
Lincoln Park's own Building Department has issued LPR crews hundreds of permits for full replacements over the decades, and Michigan Residential Building Code applies to every one of them regardless of how many times a house has already been reroofed. The NRCA attributes about 47% of shingle failures to bad installation rather than bad materials, which matters here specifically because minimal attic ventilation on older Lincoln Park homes already stacks the odds against a poorly installed roof lasting its rated life.

“Lincoln Park is home. I don't say that as a marketing line, I mean the shop is on Thomas St and I've walked roofs on Fort St and Dix-Toledo since before some of our current customers were born. The brick bungalows here from the 20s through the 60s all share the same weak point: steep pitch, original wood decking, and almost no attic ventilation. That combination is why full replacement, not another patch, is usually the right call.”

6 Roof Replacement Issues We See Every Week in Lincoln Park
Pre-war and post-war brick homes built 1925-1965 with steep-pitch roofs, original wood decking under multiple shingle layers, and minimal attic ventilation — Lincoln Park's housing stock is our specialty after 35 years working it daily. These are the failure modes our crew documents most often on Lincoln Park roof replacement calls:
Roofs 20+ years old
Plenty of Fort St corridor and Dix-Toledo brick bungalows are still running their original 1990s or even 1980s 3-tab shingles, well past what a builder grade product was ever rated to survive.
Widespread granule loss
Drive Outer Dr or Southfield Rd and the bald patches are visible from the sidewalk on roofs that have been shedding granules into the gutter system for years.
Multiple active leaks
On the older homes near Memorial Park and the Goddard Rd area, patch repairs have usually stopped holding by the time we get the call, and the decking underneath already shows it.
Inadequate attic ventilation
Homes built here between 1925 and 1965 were rarely fitted with real ridge venting, so trapped attic heat degrades the shingle from underneath faster than the sun does from above.
Sagging rooflines or deck rot
Walk a Council Point Park area roof and soft spots aren't rare, a sign that decades of minimal ventilation and moisture have finally worked through the original wood decking.
Insurance-approved full replacements
Wind driven rain off the Detroit River, only two miles east, has totaled more than one Lincoln Park roof at market value once the adjuster sees our documentation.
How long does a full roof replacement take in Lincoln Park?
Most Lincoln Park roof replacements finish in a single day for a standard ranch or bungalow, since this is the housing stock our crew has worked the longest and knows best. Two story homes, houses with multiple dormers, or roofs with two shingle layers to remove can stretch to 2 or 3 days. Every job wraps with a full magnetic nail sweep of the yard and driveway before the crew leaves the site.
Roof Replacement Cost in Lincoln Park, MI (2026)
Most Lincoln Park roof replacement projects cost between $8,000 and $18,000. Smaller ranch-style replacements start at $7,000. Timeline: 1-3 days.
A full replacement in Lincoln Park runs from about $7,000 for a smaller ranch up to $18,000, and because this is where we started, we've seen just about every version of what's under these roofs. Steep, prewar pitches with original wood decking and multiple stacked shingle layers push toward the higher end, since the tear-off alone takes longer and decking replacement is common once the old material comes off. Straightforward single layer ranches near Southfield Rd tend to land lower in the range.
“A Lincoln Park homeowner near Emmons Blvd told us they almost didn't bother getting a third quote, figuring one roofer was about as good as the next. What changed their mind after calling Lincoln Park Roofing was that the crew showed up on time, worked the whole day without vanishing halfway through, and never tried to upsell anything the roof didn't actually need.”
