Roofing & Gutter Contractor in Mobile, AL
Ben White here, owner of B&B Roof and Gutter. Mobile is one of the oldest, most historic cities on the Gulf Coast, and my team and I have worked roofs across its full range — from the antebellum and Victorian homes in Oakleigh Historic District and Old Dauphin Way, to the established properties in Midtown and Spring Hill, to newer construction further out. Every one of those neighborhoods brings its own roofing challenges, and we know how to handle them.
Mobile takes some of the toughest weather on the Gulf Coast: nearly 66 inches of rain a year, intense humidity, and direct hits from major hurricanes including Ivan, Katrina, Sally, and Ida over the past two decades. That combination wears out a roof faster here than in most parts of the country — asphalt shingles that might last 25-30 years elsewhere often show real deterioration after just 15-20 years in Mobile. We build and repair every roof with that reality in mind, not a generic national standard.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a roof replacement cost in Mobile, AL?
Most homeowners in Mobile pay between $8,000 and $18,000 for a standard architectural asphalt shingle roof, depending on the home’s size and material. Historic-district homes with slate or clay tile roofing can run significantly higher due to specialized materials and detail work. A free inspection is the best way to get an accurate number for your specific home.
Does homeowners insurance cover storm damage in Mobile?
Generally yes — if the damage came from a covered peril like wind, hail, or a named storm, your standard homeowners policy should cover the repair or replacement. It won’t cover normal wear or age-related deterioration. Because Mobile County is coastal, many standard policies exclude windstorm coverage, so a separate AIUA wind policy is often required for full protection. As a certified FORTIFIED Roof installer, we can help you understand what insurance discounts — often 20-60% off the wind portion of your premium, according to Alabama Department of Insurance guidelines — you may qualify for with a FORTIFIED upgrade, which can be especially valuable on Mobile’s older housing stock. Always confirm exact coverage with your agent.
How often should gutters be cleaned in Mobile?
Given Mobile’s exceptionally heavy rainfall — nearly 66 inches a year, well above the national average — we recommend cleaning gutters at least 3 times a year, with more frequent checks for homes with mature tree coverage common in neighborhoods like Midtown and Spring Hill. A check after any major storm is also a good habit.
