For a typical Kentwood single-family home with an asphalt shingle roof, replacement generally runs $10,000 to $25,000 — a directional planning range, not a quote. The real number depends on roof size, pitch, tear-off layers (common in Kentwood's 1960s–1990s housing), and decking condition. Asphalt roofs in West Michigan last 15 to 25 years.
Three forces do most of the damage in Kentwood: freeze-thaw cycling that breaks shingle seals, lake-effect snow load off Lake Michigan that stresses decking and builds ice dams at the eaves, and afternoon sun and prevailing west wind that age the south and west slopes faster than the rest of the roof.
Not every aging roof needs replacement — if it is one storm-hit slope or a flashing failure, we will say repair. Grandville Roofing & Exteriors is employee-owned, CertainTeed ShingleMaster certified, and has served West Michigan for 50+ years with our own trained crews and no subcontractors.

A typical single-family asphalt replacement runs $10,000 to $25,000, directional. Size, pitch, layers, and deck condition set the final number. You get a written scope before work starts.
15 to 25 years in West Michigan conditions. Ventilation and installation quality decide which end of that range you get.
We install year-round when conditions allow. Shingle sealing needs the right temperatures, so some winter jobs get scheduled around weather windows. We will be straight with you about timing.
If the damage is storm-related and documented within your policy's filing window, often about a year, it may. We document damage properly and work with your adjuster. We don't inflate claims.
