Roofing for Mancelona’s snow country

Mancelona sits in Antrim County at the edge of some of the heaviest snowfall country in northern Michigan. The Shanty Creek and Schuss Mountain hills nearby catch lake-effect accumulations that stack up fast through December, January, and February, and the long shoulder-season freeze-thaw cycles that run from November into April are hard on even well-built roofs. Bill Smith Roofing has been handling that reality on Antrim County homes for over 30 years.

The housing mix here is unusual. In Mancelona proper and along M-88 the work is standard residential roofing, farmhouses, and the occasional commercial building. Head up into the hills around Shanty Creek, Summit Village, and the Schuss Mountain corridor and the roofs change: steep-pitch ski cabins, A-frame lodges, chalets with complex rooflines, and resort buildings that need serious snow-load design. Many of these properties sit empty for stretches of the season, so an inspection catches problems before they become water damage in a vacant house.

A Mancelona roof repair call most often starts with ice dam damage on a cabin returning to use for the holidays, a snow-load concern after a heavy February storm, or storm damage on a resort structure the owners cannot easily get to. We travel to these properties, get up on the roof, and give you an honest assessment of what is going on and what the right fix is. For owners and property managers coordinating from downstate, we handle inspection, documentation, and completion with regular written updates and photos.

Serving Mancelona and the surrounding Antrim County area including Bellaire, Alden, and the Central Lake and Elk Rapids corridors, we handle asphalt shingle roofing, repairs, snow-load assessments, and storm damage restoration throughout the ski country.

“Bill Smith did an outstanding job on a very difficult roof. My cabin is remote, on top of a steep hill and very difficult to access. None of these obstacles prevented him from going above and beyond to deliver a first rate installation. He has an old school work ethic and it shows in the final product.”

“Bill Smith is a professional and a true gentleman. He came out the same day to inspect our roof. We had concerns about possible water leaks. Bill assured us that our roof had no issues and that we should get at least 4 more years of life on our roof. I would definitely recommend Bill.”

“Bill did a complete reroof on our house and pole barn. We were very pleased with the project from the beginning to the end. He provided a complete estimate for cost and time frame and did a very good job on the clean-up. He also fixed a couple of problems that were encountered after the project started at a very reasonable rate.”

Mancelona roofing FAQ

Common questions
in Mancelona.

01 Do you serve the Shanty Creek and Schuss Mountain area?
Yes. We work throughout the Mancelona and Antrim County area including the ski cabin and resort communities around Shanty Creek and Schuss Mountain, plus the nearby towns of Bellaire, Alden, Central Lake, and Elk Rapids.
02 Can you inspect a ski cabin or seasonal property I’m not at year-round?
We do this often around Mancelona. We inspect, document, and complete roofing work and keep you or your property manager updated with photos and written reports even when the property is sitting empty.
03 Is my roof built for the snow load around Mancelona?
This area gets some of the heaviest snowfall in northern Michigan, and snow load matters especially on older cabin and lodge roofs. We can assess whether your current roof is equipped to carry what the next big winter brings, and install a system built for it if it is not.
04 Do you handle storm damage insurance claims in Antrim County?
Yes. We photograph and document wind, hail, and snow-related storm damage so you have what you need for your claim, and complete the restoration once the claim is approved.
05 How quickly can you get out to Mancelona for a leak?
Same day in most cases for active leaks, and we prioritize winter calls on second homes where water intrusion can go undetected for weeks if nobody is there.
