Roofer in Gulf Shores, AL

Gulf Shores is the front line. Ivan, Sally, and every named storm since runs the same playbook on this coast — and the roofs that hold up are the roofs that were spec'd for it. Gulf Shores roofs see the worst of the wind and the sun. We default to wind-rated systems, stainless or hot-dipped galvanized fasteners, and coastal-grade flashing.

We've worked roofs on the Fort Morgan peninsula, in West Beach, behind the Intracoastal, and on the canal-front homes off Highway 180. Each lot has its own micro-exposure — Gulf-front beats the snot out of a roof on the south face; canal-side homes get squeezed between Gulf-side wind and the bay surge.

Design wind in Gulf Shores runs 150 mph in most of the city. We default to standing-seam metal where the homeowner will go for it — it's the right answer for hurricane wind and salt. When asphalt is the right call, we use Class H wind shingles, 6-nail patterns, hurricane starters, and ice-and-water shield from the eave up six feet. Anything less and you'll see us back here after the next storm.
