A failing roof does not announce itself all at once. It starts with a small leak, a few missing shingles, or water stains on your ceiling that you keep meaning to look into. By the time it becomes obvious, the damage has usually spread well beyond the roof itself — into the decking, the insulation, and sometimes the interior walls. At Bradco Exteriors, we start every roof project with an honest assessment of what is actually happening up there. If a repair is the right call, we will tell you. If the roof is at the end of its life and a full replacement is what the situation requires, we will tell you that too — with a clear explanation of why.
We handle full roof installations and replacements across Birmingham and the surrounding areas, working with materials suited for Alabama's specific climate demands. Heat, UV exposure, heavy rain, and the occasional severe storm all put pressure on roofing systems that general-purpose products are not always built to handle. Our team manages the complete scope — removing the existing roof, inspecting and addressing any decking damage underneath, installing the new system correctly, and cleaning up completely when the job is done. Every step of that process matters, and none of it gets skipped to move faster.
Homeowners across Hoover, Vestavia Hills, Homewood, and Bessemer have trusted Bradco Exteriors with their roof replacements because Randy gives them a straight answer from the start and follows through on everything agreed to. If your roof is aging, storm-damaged, or showing signs it is no longer doing its job, call (877) 327-4348 and Randy will come out, get on the roof, and give you a written estimate based on what he actually sees — not a number pulled from a square footage calculator.
Full Roof Replacement – We remove your existing roofing system down to the decking, inspect for damage underneath, and install a complete new roof system with proper underlayment, flashing, and finish materials.
Roof Decking Inspection & Repair – Before any new roof goes on, we inspect the decking for rot, soft spots, and structural damage. Any compromised decking gets replaced before the new system is installed — because a new roof on bad decking is a short-term fix.
Shingle Roof Installation – Architectural shingles are the most common residential roofing material in the Birmingham area. We install them with correct nailing patterns, proper overlap, and ridge cap finishing that holds up through Alabama storm season.
Flashing Installation & Replacement – Roof flashing around chimneys, vents, skylights, and wall intersections is one of the most common sources of leaks. Every roof replacement includes new flashing installed and sealed correctly at every penetration point.
Underlayment & Ice & Water Shield – Proper underlayment is what protects your decking if the outer roofing layer ever gets compromised. We install the right underlayment for Alabama's climate on every job.
Drip Edge Installation – Drip edge is a detail that gets skipped on a lot of budget roof jobs. We install it correctly on every replacement because it protects your fascia and directs water away from the roof edge the way it is supposed to.
Full Cleanup & Debris Removal – When the job is done, we do a thorough cleanup of the property including magnetic nail sweeps of the yard and driveway. Your property is left clean — not just the roof.
Honest Assessment Before Any Recommendation – Randy gets on the roof himself and gives you a straight read on what it actually needs. If it can be repaired, we say so. A full replacement is only recommended when the roof genuinely requires it — not because it is the bigger job.
Decking Inspection Is Not Optional – Every roof replacement includes a full decking inspection before the new system goes on. Rotted or damaged decking under a new roof is a problem that will surface again within a few years. We address it upfront so you are not dealing with it again down the road.
Materials Chosen for Alabama's Climate – The heat, UV load, and storm exposure in the Birmingham area put specific demands on roofing materials. We select and install products rated for these conditions — not the cheapest option that looks fine on a spec sheet.
Complete Scope, No Loose Ends – Removal, decking repair, underlayment, flashing, finish roofing, drip edge, and full cleanup — it is all part of the job. Nothing gets left half-done or passed off to someone else to finish.
Free In-Home Estimates Across Birmingham – Randy comes out to your property, gets on the roof, and gives you a detailed written estimate based on what the roof actually needs. No guessing, no ballpark numbers. Call (877) 327-4348 to get scheduled.
