Trusted Roofing for Frankfort Homes & Waterfront Properties
Frankfort sits on the eastern shore of Lake Michigan at the mouth of Betsie Bay — one of Benzie County’s most scenic communities, and one of the most demanding environments for roofing in northern Michigan. High winds off the lake, heavy lake-effect snow, and the moisture that comes with constant lake proximity all accelerate wear on roofing systems that aren’t properly installed and maintained. Bill Smith Roofing has been serving Frankfort and surrounding Benzie County communities for over 30 years.
Whether you have a year-round home near downtown, a vacation property on or near the water, or a commercial building in the area, we understand the conditions your roof faces. We handle everything from full replacements to storm damage documentation and repair.

What Frankfort Roofs Face — And How We Handle It
Wind is the primary accelerant of roofing wear in Frankfort. The exposed position on Lake Michigan means shingles experience high-velocity gusts that can lift, crack, or break down shingles much faster than inland properties. We always recommend high-wind-rated shingles for Frankfort and Betsie Bay area properties, and we pay careful attention to proper nailing and flashing to make sure wind can’t find a foothold.
Lake-effect snowfall in Frankfort can be significant, and the wet, heavy snow that comes off Lake Michigan is harder on roofing than the drier snow that falls further inland. We also see moisture-related issues — moss, algae, and premature granule loss — on homes regularly exposed to lake fog and high humidity. See our project portfolio for examples of our Benzie County work.
Our maintenance program is especially valuable for lake-area properties — we recommend annual inspections for Frankfort homes rather than the three-to-five year intervals that work for inland areas. We also handle insurance claim documentation for storm damage.
