What we write about, and why
Every post here answers a question Dothan property owners actually ask before they hire anyone — what work costs, which materials are worth the upcharge, how long a job really takes, and the shortcuts that look fine for two years and then do not.
The writing comes from the same people doing the work in Dothan, AL and the Wiregrass, which is why the numbers are specific and the advice sometimes tells you not to spend money.

Skip the articles and go to the page for what you need — each one covers pricing, scope and how to start:
- Roof Replacement in Dothan — A replacement here is a specification decision, not a compliance one. Dothan adopted the 2021 International Residential Code under Ordinance 2024-343, effective January 1, 2025, and that code does not require the coastal detailing you would get eighty miles south.
- Roof Leak Repair in Dothan — 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 in Dothan — 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 in Dothan — Here is the page where we argue against the product. Southeast Alabama is not the hail belt.
- Wind Damage Roofing in Dothan — 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.
