New Roof Installation in Birmingham, Alabama
We coordinate the new roof with the structure, construction schedule, ventilation, and drainage so every layer works together.
Signs you may need this service

How we can help
Install every layer for lasting protection
New roof installation differs from replacement because there is no existing roof to remove. We review the construction drawings, roof shape, deck readiness, penetrations, ventilation, and connections to adjoining materials.
We confirm the materials and installation details, then coordinate timing with the builder or property owner before work begins.

GAF Silver Pledge
A qualifying roof with the application handled for you
We install the qualifying GAF asphalt-shingle roofing system and apply for Silver Pledge coverage with GAF on your behalf. The warranty includes a 50-year non-prorated period for covered manufacturing defects and 10 years of coverage for qualifying installation errors.
Non-prorated means a covered claim is not reduced simply because the roof has aged during those first 50 years.

Considering a HELOC for your roof?
We do not offer in-house financing. Some homeowners arrange a home equity line of credit directly with a bank or credit union. We recommend contacting Avadian Credit Union to explore its current home equity options.

Questions about new roof installation
How is new roof installation different from roof replacement?
New installation covers the first roofing system on new construction or an addition. Replacement includes removing and evaluating an existing roof before installing the next system.
When should the roofer join a new construction project?
Yes. Early coordination helps avoid delays when roof shape, penetrations, ventilation, material lead times, or adjoining construction affect the schedule.
Can Higher Roof coordinate with my builder?
Yes. We can coordinate with the builder or general contractor so deck readiness, access, scheduling, and related trades are clear.
