Roofing Services in Tuscaloosa

• Free Roof Inspections and Drone Roof Inspections: A drone covers nearly every roof, which helps landlords see what we see, and we climb up wherever there's damage. Roofs that may need replacing get a roof report; the rest get an honest repair quote. Inspections run Monday–Friday, 9:00 AM–5:30 PM.

• Roof Repair and Leak Detection: leaks, missing or creased shingles, flashing, and pipe boots.

• Residential Roof Replacement: a complete roof system on every job, including underlayment, starter, flashing, ventilation, and ridge cap. CertainTeed and TAMKO shingle options.

• Commercial Roof Replacement and Commercial Roof Coatings: for retail, offices, churches, and multi-unit rental buildings.

• Storm Damage Repair and Insurance Claim Help: we document hail and wind damage with photos. We are an Alfa Insurance Preferred Vendor.

• Emergency Roof Tarping: we stop the water first after a storm or a fallen tree.

• Gutter Installation, Gutter Guards, and Soffit & Fascia Repair

• Tree Removal and Stump Grinding: full take-downs and emergency tree-on-house removal. We do not do limb trimming.

Tuscaloosa Homes and Neighborhoods

Tuscaloosa's housing ranges from historic homes near downtown to newer subdivisions on the edges of the city. Each area has its own roof issues:

• Older in-town homes near downtown: older homes with steep roofs, chimneys, and decades of repairs. We often find several shingle layers and worn decking.

• Mid-century neighborhoods: mostly mid-century homes, many on their second or third roof. Aging flashing, low-slope additions, and mature trees are common.

• Established and newer subdivisions: a mix of established and newer subdivisions, where original builder-grade shingles are reaching the end of their life.

• Lake homes and wooded lots: near the nearby town of Northport and across the Black Warrior River, lake homes and wooded lots mean heavy shade, damp roofs, and trees close to the house.

The University of Alabama Area

Many homes around the University of Alabama campus are rentals, student houses, and small multi-unit buildings. For landlords and property managers, we:

• Inspect and send photos so you don't have to drive over.

• Coordinate access with tenants and schedule around move-in, move-out, and home-football Saturdays.

• Give a clear repair-or-replace answer for each property, which helps when you manage several.

Storms in Tuscaloosa

West Alabama sits squarely in tornado country. Tuscaloosa has taken direct tornado hits, most memorably during the April 2011 outbreak, and spring and late-fall storms regularly bring hail, damaging straight-line winds, and falling trees. Even a storm that misses town can lift shingles across the county. After severe weather, a free inspection documents damage for your insurance claim before small problems turn into leaks.
