Mikes Roofing | Roofing Services in Bessemer, AL 35023

In our Bessemer climate, key signs include cracked, curled, or missing shingles, excessive granules in your gutters (which look like coarse sand), and dark streaks from algae growth. If your roof is over 15-20 years old and you're seeing these issues, it's likely time for a professional inspection. We can assess if a repair will suffice or if a replacement is necessary to prevent water damage.

Flashing—the metal strips around chimneys, vents, and roof valleys—is crucial for sealing seams. Over time, Alabama's heat, humidity, and storms can cause the sealant to dry out, crack, or the metal itself to corrode or pull away. Even a small gap can let in significant water during our heavy rains. Mike's Roofing specializes in diagnosing and expertly repairing or replacing compromised flashing to stop leaks at their source.

First, we conduct a thorough inspection to locate the exact point of failure. The repair often involves carefully removing the damaged flashing, preparing the surface, and installing new, high-quality flashing sealed with premium, weather-resistant materials. We ensure it integrates seamlessly with your existing shingles to restore a watertight barrier. Our process is designed to be efficient and lasting, giving you peace of mind before the next storm.
