Start with conditions, not a product
Roof age, decking condition, flashing details, ventilation, valleys, penetrations, wind exposure, and storm history all shape whether a repair or a full replacement is the sound choice.

Mobile context
Mobile's historic districts -- de Tonti Square, Oakleigh Garden District, and Church Street East among them -- preserve Creole cottages and antebellum architecture near the port, while twentieth-century growth pushed newer neighborhoods north toward Prichard and Saraland and south toward Theodore along flat, low-lying coastal-plain terrain. That geography puts a large share of Mobile's housing stock inside hurricane and tropical-storm paths -- the city sits directly in the Gulf Coast's track, and storms including Hurricane Sally in 2020 brought major regional flooding and wind damage -- which keeps roofing, water damage, mold, and gutter work tied closely to storm season.
