Why Vestavia Hills Homeowners Trust SWAT

Liberty Park and Cahaba Heights are a short trip down I-459 from our Alabama office on Alton Road in Irondale, and City Hall on Montgomery Highway is twenty to twenty-eight minutes away. That makes a same-day visit anywhere in Vestavia Hills easy to schedule most days. The city requires a permit to re-roof a house, and we pull it for you on every job.

Vestavia Hills is named for Vestavia, the Shades Mountain estate of former Birmingham mayor George B. Ward, whose house was modeled on the Temple of Vesta in Rome. The city was incorporated in 1950 with just over 600 people and now has about 38,600. The typical house here was built around 1978, so many homes are on their second roof by now, and some of those are getting old too. Roofs this age can also hide an extra layer of shingles or soft spots in the wood underneath.

We look hard at overhanging limbs and at the valleys, the low channels where two slopes meet and leaves pile up. We also check the flashing, the metal that seals the roof around chimneys and walls, plus the edges and the peak, where wind starts lifting shingles. You’ll get dated photos and an honest opinion, and sometimes the answer is that your roof is fine for now. Call our Irondale office at (205) 623-2446.

We had an excellent experience with SWAT Roofing & Contracting. Jamie Marsh was our service associate, and he helped explain the entire process, making it very easy to work through with them and our insurance company. Their work is exceptional and quick. Jamie remained responsive through the whole process and I am confident with their fairness of their pricing. Highly recommend.

As someone who has never had their roof replaced, I was completely clueless about the process. Jamie Marsh took the time to thoroughly explain the process and was always available to assist with any questions or concerns along the way. As a bit of a special case, having recently changed insurance companies, I expected some push back from my previous insurer. From meeting with their adjuster, to working around my schedule to determine a replacement date, and being on site to ensure the integrity of not just my property but my neighbors as well, I can't thank Jamie and the SWAT roofing team enough for their guidance and professionalism throughout the process.

William Martin of SWAT was fantastic in helping us with our damaged roof. He fully explained how the while process would go and consistently stayed in contact and give us periodic updates all the way up until the day the job was done. The crew who did the work on the roof were very professional and helpful and ensured we were able to come and go safely while they worked. Thanks William for all your hard work!!

SWAT Roofing replaced my roof and gutters, painted the outside of the house and also did some minor repairs inside. They did a great job and my roof looks better than ever. Will Martin, the project manager, did a very good job in scheduling and communicating about all aspects of the project. I can definitely recommend SWAT Roofing.

Shout out to William Martin with SWAT Roofing for helping with the insurance claim, having to work with 2 different insurance adjusters to prove the damage for the roof replacement. William also made sure from beginning to end that the work was completed on time and to the standards that SWAT sets for their work ethics, thank you.

A very professional yet personal experience. William explained all options clearly and helped tremendously with insurance company and scheduling the project quickly and efficiently. He was present when the adjuster came by to answer any questions and make sure the process went smoothly. Their team showed up on time early in the morning and worked steadily all thru the day to be able to complete the job in one day. The attention to detail and willingness to solve any unexpected problems made working with them a real pleasure. Their warranty is amazing. Very pleased with the finished product.

Mr. William Martin, went above and beyond to explain the process step by step. They made the transition with insurance process very easy. My husband and I were very pleased with the outcome of the roof and gutters.

Vestavia Hills Roofs Take a Beating from Alabama Weather

Early on the morning of April 27, 2011, an EF-2 tornado with winds of about 120 mph cut a 7.76-mile path through Cahaba Heights and Liberty Park, crossing US-280 and I-459. Just after midnight on December 10, 2023, straight-line winds of 60 to 70 mph swept through Vestavia Hills and Cahaba Heights. On May 2, 2025, winds near 60 mph brought down trees across Cahaba Heights and Liberty Park, blocking Liberty Parkway near Fire Station 4 and dropping a tree onto a house on Overton Road. We haven’t found a recent hail report for the city, and nearly all the damage on record here comes from falling trees.

A heavy limb can crack the decking, which is the wood under the shingles, or pull loose the flashing around a chimney while the roof still looks fine from the yard. Hail does the same kind of hidden harm by bruising shingles and knocking off their gritty coating. Insurance companies want to know what happened and when, so a check soon after a storm helps your claim. The inspection is free, and we’ll tell you straight when we don’t find anything.

Vestavia Hills Roofing • FAQ

Most calls get a visit the same day. City Hall is twenty to twenty-eight minutes from our Irondale office by I-459, and Liberty Park and Cahaba Heights are closer. We cover the whole city, including the 35216, 35226, 35242 and 35243 zip codes. Our crews head out at first light after an overnight storm, and a tree on the roof gets a tarp first to keep the rain out.

The City of Vestavia Hills Building Safety office issues roofing permits, and you need one to re-roof a house. Applications go through the city’s online portal, and unpermitted work costs double the fee plus a $100 penalty. Contractors also need a city business license, and we have a current one. Each city in Jefferson County runs permits its own way, so we check the rules for your address and pull the permit for you.

It’s worth asking your HOA before you pick a shingle. Liberty Park has its own architectural design guidelines, and many HOAs want to approve the shingle color and style before work starts. We can give you the brand, product line and color name of the shingle you choose for your application, and we’ll wait for the approval before we schedule the job.

The slope can affect your roof in two ways. Homes on the ridge or an open hillside can catch more wind, and wind usually lifts shingles first along the edges and the ridge, the peak line at the top. A steep driveway or a lot that drops off behind the house can also make it harder to get ladders and materials in place. We look at both during the inspection and plan for them in your quote.

It’s a good idea even if nothing landed on your house. On May 2, 2025, winds near 60 mph knocked down trees across Cahaba Heights and Liberty Park, and about two weeks later more trees fell on homes along Pump House Road. A limb that only brushes a roof can still crack the decking or break the seal that holds shingles flat. Our free inspection takes about an hour, and you keep the dated photos.

Coverage usually applies when a storm or high wind brought the tree down, but your policy and deductible set the details. We work with every major insurance company. One SWAT project manager stays with your claim from the first call to the final payment, documenting the damage, meeting your adjuster and handling the paperwork. Damage we find after the old shingles come off goes to your insurer as a supplement, an update to the claim, so it gets paid for too.

We price a roof only after a free inspection at your house, because two roofs that look alike can be very different up close. Our inspector checks the size, the pitch, which is how steep the roof is, the layers of old shingles and the decking. Pricing what we actually saw keeps the quote from changing after tear-off, so you aren’t hit with costly change orders. Storm-damaged roofs are often covered by insurance minus your deductible, and our roof replacement cost guide lists typical prices by material.

We offer financing through our lending partners GreenSky and GoodLeap, subject to credit approval. It helps when insurance covers only part of the job or an aging roof needs replacing with no claim to file. Plans include $0 down, fixed rates and no penalty for paying the loan off early. The details are on our financing page, and your project manager can go over the options with you.

We hold license #41811 from the Alabama Home Builders Licensure Board and carry insurance for residential roofing work in Alabama. The shingle manufacturers we use have certified our installers, and our Atlas Pro+ Diamond status puts us among the top 2 percent of roofers in the U.S. Each roof we put on comes with our 10-year workmanship warranty.
