About Michigan RoofingRoofing contractors in Michigan provide a range of services such as laying, maintaining, and repairing roofs, in addition to waterproofing, asphalting, and other roof maintenance tasks. Typical Climate in MichiganMichigan experiences widely varying seasons with warm summers and below zero winters with plenty of snow. The northern regions experience colder temperatures and the heaviest snowfall in the state. The west coast along the lower peninsula also experiences snow due to Lake Michigan's influence on the climate. The peninsular region, especially the south, is subject to thunderstorms. The tornado season makes its presence felt beginning late spring and well into summer. With all these extreme conditions, a reliable and well-functioning roof is important.
