Empire Roofing Contractor | M & M Construction | Roof Repair & Replacement

Not necessarily. Granule loss is a common sign of aging shingles in our area, but the extent determines the solution. We'll inspect to see if it's isolated wear or widespread. Often, a targeted repair can extend your roof's life. If the loss is severe and your shingles are curling or cracking, a full replacement with modern, durable materials will provide the lasting protection your Empire home needs.

Loose ridge caps are a frequent issue we fix for Empire homeowners. They are a critical seal at your roof's peak. We can often repair or replace the affected caps if the underlying roof structure and surrounding shingles are sound. During our inspection, we'll check for any related wind or water damage to ensure a repair is sufficient. If the problem is part of wider deterioration, we'll discuss your options for a more comprehensive roof replacement.

For lasting performance against Alabama weather, we recommend high-quality architectural shingles with reinforced adhesives for wind resistance and enhanced granule retention. We also use proper ventilation techniques to prevent heat buildup that ages shingles prematurely. For the ridge, we install premium ridge vent systems with durable caps sealed to withstand our local wind and rain. Our goal is to install a roof that specifically counters the common problems we see in Empire.
