On workmanship
Pleasant Grove is a close-knit city on the west side of Jefferson County, and we work on homes all over it, from the streets around City Hall on Park Road to the neighborhoods along County Road 27 and Wolf Creek. Our Alabama office is in Irondale, about thirty minutes away, and our crews work in west Jefferson County every day, so we can usually look at your roof the same day you call. The City of Pleasant Grove has its own building department, and we take care of the permit on every job.
Pleasant Grove was settled in 1889 and became a city on January 16, 1934, partly because the town needed to incorporate to get help with water that had flooded the old coal mines under it. Census figures put the typical home in the 35127 zip code at about 43 years old. Many of the older homes have been re-roofed more than once, while hundreds of others were rebuilt after the 2011 tornado and now have roofs about 15 years old.
On older Pleasant Grove homes we check for a second layer of shingles laid over the first and press on the decking, the wood under the shingles, to find soft spots from slow leaks. On homes rebuilt after 2011 we check that the flashing, the metal that seals around chimneys and walls, and the vent boots are still sealed tight. You’ll get photos of every side of the roof and an honest answer about what it needs, if anything. Call (205) 623-2446 to talk to a real person.

We cover Pleasant Grove and every surrounding community
Pleasant Grove has been hit hard by tornadoes, including in 1956, 1977 and 1998. The worst came early in the evening of April 27, 2011, when an EF-4 tornado tore through the city, killing 13 people and destroying more than 350 homes. On May 3, 2009, a tornado with winds of 90 to 100 mph touched down along County Road 27 in Pleasant Grove and followed Wolf Creek northeast. Storms still bring down trees and power lines across west Jefferson County most springs.
Strong wind can lift shingles and break the seal that holds them down, and a falling limb can crack the decking while the roof still looks fine from the yard. Insurance companies want proof of what happened and when, so it’s smart to have the roof checked soon after a storm. Our inspections are free, and we’ll tell you honestly when we don’t find anything.
Most days we can be there the same day you call. Our crews work in west Jefferson County every day, and we cover the whole 35127 zip code. If water is coming in, tell us when you call and we’ll get a tarp on the roof first.
The City of Pleasant Grove’s Building Department at 501 Park Road handles permits and inspections inside the city. Homes just outside the city limits fall under Jefferson County instead. We check which office covers your address and pull the right permit before work starts.
A roof put on after 2011 is now about 15 years old, so it’s worth a checkup even if nothing is leaking. Find your warranty papers and see how long the workmanship part lasts. Then look for shingles curling at the edges, grit in the gutters and new ceiling stains. We’ll check the flashing and vent boots, which often wear out before the shingles do.
We’ll count the layers of shingles first. Once a roof has two layers, the next one should start with a full tear-off down to the wood, so we can replace any soft or rotted boards before the new shingles go on. If there’s only one layer and the damage is in one spot, a repair may be all you need.
If wind, hail or a falling tree caused the damage, your policy often covers it, minus your deductible. You file the claim with your insurance company. We photograph the damage, write up a report, and we’re on the roof when your adjuster inspects it. We send the insurance company our estimate, and if we find hidden damage once the old shingles come off, we send them an updated estimate with photos.
We price every roof in person, because the size and pitch of the roof, how many layers have to come off and the condition of the wood underneath all change the cost. On an older home with two layers, the tear-off is a bigger part of the job. Our roof replacement cost guide shows typical prices by material, and your free inspection comes with a written price.
Yes, through our lending partners GreenSky and GoodLeap, subject to credit approval. Options include $0-down plans, fixed rates and no penalty for paying early. It helps when insurance doesn’t cover the whole job or an older roof simply needs replacing. Our financing page has the details.
