A Tilcor stone-coated steel roof built to handle lake wind and heavy snow, with a shake-style look that suits this Northern Michigan log home.
This lakefront log home is a showpiece, with soaring glass gables facing the water and a long run of attached garages on the drive side. It faces everything Northern Michigan weather can throw at a roof: wind off the lake, heavy snow, and freeze-thaw cycles all winter. The owners wanted a roof that would match the rustic character of the logs and outlast anything they had before.
Tilcor roofing combines a steel core with a stone-chip finish, so it looks like a traditional shake or shingle roof while performing like metal. It is rated Class 4 for hail impact and Class A for fire, engineered for winds up to 120 mph, and the stone surface dampens rain noise. For a lakefront home with big exposure, it was the right balance of beauty and toughness.
