Roofing in Kinsey, AL
Three households in Kinsey heat with utility gas. Three, out of 872 occupied units, against 848 running on electricity, which is the lowest piped-gas share of any town we serve. Nearly every roof in this town is therefore a roof with no flue, no B-vent and no masonry chimney to flash around. That is a shorter leak inventory than almost any town we work in.
That simplifies a Kinsey re-roof and it also removes the most common leak source we chase elsewhere. What is left as a penetration is plumbing stacks, bath fans and the occasional power vent, so the boot schedule and the fan-hood flashing carry more of the weight than they would on a gas-heated street in Dothan.
Kinsey is also still building. Sixty-nine of its 997 housing units date to 2020 or later and the median build year is 1992, so a fair share of what we look at here is a first replacement rather than a third. Zero units in town were built during the 1940s. Census value is $132,000 and 680 of 872 occupied units are owner-held.
The wind file is short and pointed. On March 18, 2021, an EF0 tornado touched down in northwestern Houston County near Cedar Creek, snapping small trees along Faulkner and Suggs roads and damaging a carport on Suggs Road before tracking northeast into Henry County. Two thousand dollars, and mostly to an outbuilding.
Hail has shown up more than once. Quarter-plus stones fell at Highway 431 and Remington Drive on July 28, 2014, and 1.75-inch hail on March 27, 2011. We still decline to sell impact-rated shingles here, because two hail days in a quarter century does not repay the premium. Alabama does oblige insurers to credit a certified wind-mitigation retrofit, but that is a different standard from a hail rating.
Flooding is the more frequent nuisance. On June 21, 2023, water covered stretches of U.S. 431 near Kinsey along with W.H. Graddy Road and Broad Street, and a car sat in the median with water to the passenger window. That is a drainage question, not a shingle question.
Kinsey keeps its own town hall on Walden Drive, and the contractor license that governs work here is the county business privilege license issued through the Houston County probate office. Houston County itself runs no building department, so nobody will inspect the finished roof. Kinsey sits on the U.S. 431 four-lane about seven miles out of the middle of Dothan, close enough that out-of-town crews work here after every storm. leads@dothanpremiumroofing.com
Roofing work we do in Kinsey, AL
Dothan Premium Roofing covers the same range of work in Kinsey that we do in Dothan — nothing is carved out because the address is a few miles up the road:
- Roof Leak Repair — Most Dothan leaks are not field leaks. They are edge leaks, boot leaks and sidewall leaks, and they show up months after the wind event that caused them.
- Storm Damage Restoration — On October 10, 2018, the eye of Hurricane Michael crossed into Seminole County, Georgia at about six in the evening, still a Category 3 with 115 mph sustained winds. Extreme Wind Warnings covered Houston County.
- Hail Damage Roofing — Here is the page where we argue against the product. Southeast Alabama is not the hail belt.
- Wind Damage Roofing — Wind is the hazard that matters in Houston County, and it behaves differently here than it does either on the coast or up in tornado country. Ours arrives already weakened but stays for hours, which is a fatigue problem rather than a peak-load problem.
- Roof Inspections — Nobody certifies a roof in Dothan. There is no windstorm inspector, no certificate of compliance, no third-party sign-off that follows the house.
- Asphalt Shingle Roofs — Nearly every roof in the Wiregrass is asphalt, and nearly every quote in this market sells you the wrong half of it. The shingle is the part with a brand on it.

About Kinsey, AL — and why local matters here
Kinsey sits in Houston County with a population of roughly 2,203, close enough to Dothan that crews move between the two constantly. Local landmarks and corridors residents know well include Kinsey Road, U.S. 431 north of Dothan.
Local knowledge is not a marketing line here. Kinsey properties share soil, weather, permit rules and construction eras with the rest of Houston County, and a roofing contractor who works the area weekly already knows what fails locally and what holds up. That is the difference between a bid and an accurate bid.
