How do I know if my roof needs to be repaired or replaced?
Common signs your roof may need professional attention include leaks, missing or curling shingles, sagging areas, water stains on ceilings, or high energy bills. If your roof is over 15–20 years old, it may be time to consider a replacement. We offer honest evaluations to help you decide between roof repair or full roof replacement based on your specific situation.

We specialize in asphalt shingle roofing, the most common and cost-effective option for residential homes in Alabama. We also offer metal roofing options and other durable materials upon request. All materials are chosen for their performance in Alabama’s weather conditions and come with industry-leading warranties.
How long does a roof replacement usually take?
Most residential roof replacements are completed within 1 to 2 days, depending on the size and complexity of the roof, weather conditions, and material availability. Our team works efficiently and respects your property, ensuring a quick turnaround without sacrificing quality.
Can you help with storm damage and emergency roof repairs?
Absolutely. We provide storm damage roof repair services, including emergency tarping, shingle replacement, and leak mitigation. If your roof has been damaged by hail, wind, fallen limbs, or heavy rain, we act fast to prevent further damage and restore your home’s safety and comfort.
Do you work with insurance companies?

Can you match existing shingles for roof repairs?
Yes, we do our best to match your existing shingle color and style when making repairs. While exact matches can be tricky with older or discontinued shingles, we’ll present the best available options to maintain a consistent look for your roof.
Do you offer financing or payment plans?
We understand that roofing can be a major investment. While we don’t offer in-house financing, we can recommend third-party financing options and discuss flexible payment arrangements to help you get the roof you need without delay.
Will you remove the old roof before installing a new one?
