Roofing in Somerville, AL
Only three tornadoes have ever been surveyed within five miles of Somerville in the entire national record, and both of the recent ones are filed under Falkville rather than Somerville. That is what the dataset says, not a hole in it. A town this small with a record this thin should be skeptical of anyone arriving to talk about storm damage.
Hail is the more honest local hazard. On October 8, 2014 a 2.75-inch stone landed roughly a mile and a half out from the courthouse. That is a real, dated, mat-bruising event, and it is more than a decade old now. If a roof took it and was never inspected, the damage is still on the roof even though the claim window is long gone.
The census picture here needs a caveat rather than a headline. Manufactured housing is a large share of the roughly 460 units, but the estimate carries a margin of error nearly half its own size, so we will not print a percentage. The median year built of 1984 is solid, as is the spread: roughly twenty-three percent from the 1980s and seventeen percent each from the 2010s and the 1960s.
Manufactured homes change the roofing question entirely. Low slope, purlin framing rather than rafters, and factory metal that is fastened through the water plane. Reroofing one in asphalt is often the wrong answer; recoating a sound metal roof or replacing panel with panel usually is not. We price them as the different jobs they are.
For site-built houses the recurring problem near Cotaco Creek is the low-slope porch or addition roof. Asphalt shingle is not warranted by any manufacturer below a two-in-twelve pitch, and no amount of extra sealant makes that untrue. The correct repair is a real membrane laid to its own rules, and the incorrect one is another bucket of cement that raises the cost of doing it right later.
Somerville is old ground with the oldest standing courthouse in Alabama at its center, dating to 1837, and that tone carries into the surrounding streets. On genuinely old roofs the right instinct is repair rather than replacement, and working to an existing profile is worth more than upgrading it. We do not push a tear-off on a slope that is sound.
Morgan County is the surrounding jurisdiction and Somerville is a small incorporated town, so the permitting question has to be settled at the town office rather than assumed from Decatur or Hartselle practice. We could not reach a published Somerville building page, and we would rather tell you that than invent a rule for you to rely on.
What we take on in Somerville
Madison Roof Pros covers the same range of work in Somerville that we do in Madison — nothing is carved out because the address is a few miles up the road:
- Roof Repair — Repair work rather than leak diagnosis. Shingles a spring line storm lifted, a cracked pipe boot, ridge cap that has blown off, nails that have backed out and tented a course, hail bruising on a single slope, a limb strike.
- Asphalt Shingle Roofs — Nearly every roof in Madison, AL is asphalt shingle, and nearly every one of them is a laminate from the last twenty-five years. Knowing which generation you have changes the advice more than the brand name on the wrapper ever will.
- Cool Roof Installation — In Madison a cool roof is a defensible purchase. The cooling season is long, the Tennessee Valley sun is strong, and the roof is the hottest plane on the house.
- Flat & Low-Slope Roofing — Almost every house in Madison, AL has a little bit of low-slope roof on it. A porch, a dormer return, a room addition, a bay window cap.
- Hail Damage Roofing — Most hail that falls on Madison, AL does not damage a roof. It marks it.
- Insurance Claim Help — We help with claims and we are not public adjusters, which is a separately licensed profession in Alabama. We document what we find, meet your adjuster on the roof, and take no percentage of your settlement.

About Somerville, AL — and why local matters here
Somerville sits in Morgan County with a population of roughly 796, close enough to Madison that crews move between the two constantly. Local landmarks and corridors residents know well include the 1837 courthouse at Somerville, Cotaco Creek.
Local knowledge is not a marketing line here. Somerville properties share soil, weather, permit rules and construction eras with the rest of Morgan County, and a roofing contractor who works the area weekly already knows what fails locally and what holds up. That is the difference between a bid and an accurate bid.
