Will you clean up nails and shingle granules from my driveway?

Yes, magnetic sweeping of driveways, gutters, and adjacent landscaping is included. We remove loose granules, fasteners, and tar paper fragments-leaving your property completely clean in Southfield, Hazel Park, or Madison Heights.

Do you recycle roofing materials or haul everything to landfills?

We separate and recycle metal flashing, gutters, and clean wood whenever possible through certified facilities. Asphalt shingles and tar materials go to approved disposal sites. Detailed waste tracking provided for insurance claims in Westland and Pontiac.

Do I need a permit for roofing debris removal in Detroit?

Detroit and most southeastern Michigan cities do not require permits for residential debris removal. Commercial projects in Southfield or Dearborn Heights may need documentation. We handle all coordination with local authorities and provide proof of proper disposal.
