Top Residential Roofing Company in Traverse City
Traverse City—“Cherry Capital of the World”—is a vibrant lakeside city where four-season beauty meets real roofing challenges. From heavy lake-effect snow in winter to spring winds sweeping off Grand Traverse Bay, homes here need top-tier protection. That’s why residents in 49684 and 49686 rely on Big Rapids Roofing—a dedicated residential roofing company offering expert residential roofing service uniquely built for Traverse City’s environment and aesthetic.
Why Your Traverse City Home Needs a Tough Roof
Whether you’re near West Bay, nestled in Old Mission Peninsula’s cherry orchards, or up by the airport, the weather doesn’t hold back. Roofs face:
- Crushing snow loads and ice dam risks in winter
- Rapid freeze‑thaw cycles that wear down shingles
- Wind and rain off Grand Traverse Bay
- UV exposure and moss growth under shaded conifer canopies
Our roofing solutions are carefully selected for durability, energy efficiency, and long-term performance—because this city’s beauty is worth protecting.
Top-Value Residential Roofing Service Tailored to TC
Big Rapids Roofing approaches every home with a tailored plan. Your local roofing experts offer:
- New Roof Installation & Replacements with architectural shingles, metal, or premium alternatives selected to endure Traverse City’s climate
- Swift Repairs for leaks, storm-damaged shingles, and winter wear
- Construction-Age Roofing leveraged for new builds or expansions
- Seasonal Inspections & Ice-Dam Prevention to avoid hidden damage before it’s too late
We focus on the details: ridge vents for icy slopes, heavy underlayment for flashing through winter storms—because Traverse City roofs need more than standard care.
Beyond Shingles: Full Exterior Support
We don’t just protect your rooftop—our services extend across your home’s exterior:
- Seamless Gutters & Drainage that manage snowmelt and shifting spring rains
- Storm Damage Restoration when a sudden wind or hailstorm does its worst

I found Big Rapids roofing because I specifically wanted a roofer who would install Timberline shingles. I found them through the GAF timberline website as certified installers. Building delays for my chimney completion meant they could … More not start until December. As soon as the chimney was finished I called them and they fit me in quickly. They had to blow snow off the roof in order to work. They did a complete tear off and I had the water barrier applied to the entire roof surface, rather than just the valleys as other roofers would do. And the price was more reasonable. They did excellent clean up, and because of the weather their trucks sank into my yard leaving some ruts. They sent a guy out with bags of dirt and grass seed to rectify this, although I did not insist on that. I'm very pleased.

From my initial call with them to our quote visit this company was very friendly and professional, in the office, in the field or on the roof. We spent a day with various roofing companies and none of the others could match them in any … More area. It was an easy choice to go with Big Rapids Roofing! From the day we got our quote to job completion it was all done in less than two weeks! They do not mess around. The crew doing our roof did an exemplary job, exhibiting great work ethic and care. I can’t recommend them enough. You will not be disappointed going with Big Rapids Roofing. I’m calling them back when we need our windows done! Thank you BRR, you have a walking, talking billboard in me!
