SP Williamson Construction | Roofing Services in Hattiesburg, MS 39402

Hattiesburg's weather, with its heavy rains and occasional high winds, puts significant stress on the flashing seals around chimneys. Over time, this exposure can cause the metal to corrode or the sealant to crack and shrink, creating gaps. Our team specializes in inspecting, repairing, or replacing chimney flashing with durable, weather-resistant materials to prevent water from seeping into your attic and walls, protecting your home's structure.

The humid climate here is perfect for Gloeocapsa magma algae, which feeds on limestone in asphalt shingles, causing black streaks. While not immediately damaging, it can shorten shingle life. We offer professional, low-pressure roof cleaning services that safely eliminate the algae and inhibit its return. We can also advise on installing algae-resistant shingles during a replacement, which contain copper or zinc granules to prevent future growth.

After our stormy seasons, it's wise to check for missing or damaged shingles, inspect your gutters for granule loss (a sign of shingle wear), and look inside your attic for any signs of water stains or daylight peeking through. Pay special attention to areas around chimneys, vents, and valleys. If you notice anything concerning, give us a call. We provide free, thorough inspections to identify issues like compromised flashing or early algae growth before they lead to major repairs.
