Roof Repair and Leak Detection: leaks, missing or creased shingles, flashing, and pipe boots.
Residential Roof Replacement: a complete roof system every time, from underlayment and flashing to ventilation, starter, and ridge cap. CertainTeed and TAMKO shingle options.
Commercial Roof Replacement and Commercial Roof Coatings: for businesses along US-31 and the I-65 corridor.

Alabaster Homes: Weatherly, Lake Forest and Newer Subdivisions
Alabaster has grown fast. It went from a small town incorporated in 1953 to a city of more than 34,000 people (2024 Census estimate). That means homes of very different ages sit side by side:
Older established neighborhoods: homes from the mid-1900s. Older roofs here can hide multiple layers, tired decking, and flashing that needs to be rebuilt rather than patched.
Weatherly: a planned community with more than 600 homesites, lakes, and wooded lots. The many trees mean clogged gutters, moss, and a real risk of limbs or whole trees coming down in storms.
Lake Forest: an established Alabaster neighborhood. As with other established neighborhoods, we check for aging shingles, worn pipe boots and flashing, and limbs over the roof.
Newer subdivisions: for homes built in the last 10–20 years, the first round of shingle wear and builder-grade pipe boots and flashing are the usual problems.
Severe Weather in Alabaster
Shelby County's National Weather Service record includes 52 tornadoes and 196 hail events since the 1950s, with 29 of those hail reports at golf-ball size or larger. Alabaster has taken direct hits:
An F1 tornado on April 30, 2005 crossed the Helena–Alabaster–Pelham area, including Weatherly, causing shingle damage and downing trees.
An EF0 tornado on April 19, 2009 touched down near US-31 and County Road 66 and caused roof damage before crossing I-65 into Pelham.
Even "small" storms can lift shingles and break seals. A free inspection after a storm documents damage while it is fresh for your insurance claim.
