Trussville Homes: A Historic Landmark to Today
Trussville has about 26,000 residents and some of the most interesting housing history in the Birmingham area.
A historic landmark, the Cahaba Project (Cahaba Homestead Village): this New Deal planned community of 287 homes and duplexes was built from 1936 to 1938 and is now on the National Register of Historic Places. Most are one-story side-gable cottages. Their simple roofs are easy to replace, but after 85+ years, we often find original board decking, several layers, and old chimneys that need careful flashing.
Established neighborhoods: 1970s–90s homes off Chalkville Road and Highway 11 that are on their second or third roof.
Newer subdivisions: 2000s and later homes, with original architectural shingles now 15–25 years old.
Pell City and Moody
We cover St. Clair County too. Moody is about 15 minutes from Trussville, and Pell City is about 30 minutes east on I-20.
Moody: a fast-growing city of about 13,000 along I-20 and US-411. Many subdivisions date from the 1990s and 2000s, so lots of original roofs are at the 20–30 year mark, where granule loss, cracked pipe boots, and leaky valleys show up.
Pell City: about 13,000 residents on the shores of Logan Martin Lake. Lake homes take wind straight off the water, which lifts shingles and drives rain under flashing. Shaded lots also grow moss and clog gutters fast.
Storms in Trussville and St. Clair County
On January 23, 2012, an EF3 tornado tore through Center Point and Clay, just a few miles from Trussville. Most years, the damage comes from hail, straight-line winds that lift and crease shingles, and falling trees on wooded lots. After any storm, a free inspection documents damage while it is fresh for your insurance claim.
What a Roof Replacement Looks Like
Before: a free inspection, photos, and a written quote that lists the shingle line, underlayment, and any decking allowance, so you know the price up front.
Install day: tear-off, decking check, and the complete system, installed in the right order.
After: magnetic sweep for nails, a final walk-through, and our 5-year workmanship guarantee.
