I recently moved into a nearly 45-year-old home in West Mobile with a roof that hadn't been replaced in at least 20 years. It had cheap 3-tab shingles, several missing sections, leaks, and outdated turbine vents--it was in rough shape. Thankfully, I got accepted into the Strengthen Alabama Homes (SAH) fortification program, which covered over half the cost. Still, this was a major investment, so I wanted to be sure I was making the right choice. With experience as a former maintenance supervisor for a 16-story apartment building, I treated this like a serious project. SAH required me to get bids from three authorized installers. I researched thoroughly, keeping a tally of every recommendation I saw online, especially on Facebook. SunnBuilders came out on top in mentions. When Kevin Keith from SunnBuilders came out (the second of three reps), it became clear he was different. The rep from Company-A pushed unnecessary upgrades, like a bond breaker for the peel-and-stick ice and water shield, claiming you'd need to re-deck the roof later. Technically true--but Kevin explained that a second shield layer can be added decades down the line, which made more sense. The first company also wanted to keep my outdated turbine vents, even though they aren't allowed under SAH. Kevin, however, quoted ridge vents for proper airflow and explained why it mattered. He warned me about companies offering low bids upfront only to hit you with expensive change orders later. I felt confident that SunnBuilders was upfront and honest. They also offered attic insulation services, which I was very interested in, though I couldn't afford it at the time. Still, this was a big selling point for me. Company-C rep was nice, but had a take-it-or-leave-it vibe. SunnBuilders' quote came in a few hundred dollars higher than the others, but Kevin worked with me to land on an agreeable figure. While I couldn't swing the insulation, I appreciated the flexibility and the no-BS approach. I wanted it done right--and they delivered 1000% On April 1st, I came home to see the materials shrink-wrapped and staged by the house. The crew arrived just after 7am the next morning and worked through Friday afternoon. These guys worked. Watching them carry 90lb bundles of CertainTeed shingles up a ladder all day was wild--GAF shingles are lighter, and have a better embossed look to them (in my opinion) but I chose CertainTeed for their quality and am glad I did. Major shoutout to Allen, Billy, Gavin, and Matt. They went way above and beyond. Cleanup was intense due to the wind blowing debris all over--including into my pool. One of the guys even jumped into my unheated pool (70 degrees!) to clean tar paper and shingles from the bottom without me even asking! Final advice: *Choose SunnBuilders! *Go with CertainTeed shingles. *Skip the bond breaker unless it makes sense for you. *Consider having them add insulation if your budget allows. !!!And PLEASE, leave the guys a cooler of cold drinks. The crew appreciated it and I've always believed a little appreciation goes a long way. read more

I participated in the roofing program. With that, time is of the essence, as the state tends to run out of money before everyone gets their roof. It is truly first come first serve. I was told Sunnbuilders was good to work with and did a quality job so I selected them as one of my three contractors. Kevin was on top of things immediately. They were the first to come and inspect my roof and the first to submit their bid. They were also the winning bid affordability-wise and worked with me on financing what was left. I can be a bit picky about my home, but Kevin was there for me at every turn from bringing me samples to having my particular shingle color ordered and ready in record time. They had my new roof on before others I know that were participating in the roofing program even had all their bids in. The crew was efficient and professional and had the roof on by the time I got home from work that day. My new roof if fortified and beautiful not to mention, affordable. I could not be more pleased with entire process of working with Kevin, Alex, Jennifer and crew. You all rock! Thank you Sunnbuilders! read more

Sunnbuilders - Mojave Tan shingles match my brick perfectly! - Roofing Near Me - Saraland, Alabama

THE BEST! Couldn't be any happier with any contractor. They completed my rather complicated roof replacement in one day, including immaculate clean up. They even went out of their way to honor a verbal agreement. If only more contractors were this reliable. Quality work, quick, on time and reasonable pricing. read more

I'm retired and have seen lots of new roofs - this company impressed me - and even the neighbors. Chris's team installed our fortified roof in Point Clear. From the office staff to the roofer, above and beyond all expectations with an always "it's my pleasure" friendly attitude and organized work-site. I have a stack of business cards on the desk from employees checking on progress during these two days. Exceptional service and roof quality. read more

As a participant in the Strengthen Alabama Homes Program, I picked 3 contractors to submit bids for a Fortified Roof to be put on my home. Right away, I received an email from SunnBuilders thanking me for giving them the opportunity and they also outlined what the next steps in the process would be. Later the same day, someone from SunnBuilders called to see if I had any questions about the program. Soon, I was contacted by Alex, who came to gather information for their bid and answer any questions. He also left me a nice packet of information with samples of the shingles. Already, I was impressed with their customer service and how they made sure to keep me informed about the next steps. When I finally got the other 2 bids, I was sure that SunnBuilders was the kind of company I needed and appreciated for this project. Alex came by when I needed to select the shingle color and even brought me larger samples to help with my decision. Throughout this early part of the process, the office was keeping me informed, up to date by phone or email and usually Alex would follow up with a phone call. The office called to let me know when the materials were being delivered and when the roof installation would begin. Alex came the day the materials were delivered to make sure everything was there. On the morning the roof was to be installed, their crew arrived bright and early, as planned, and were in constant motion, preparing everything to protect my property and getting ready for their amazing work to begin. The teamwork, the skill, the speed and quality of the roofers' work was like a "well-oiled machine", even better. Alex was on-site initially and then Chris was there for the duration of the work. Chris answered questions I had and tended to other important aspects of the project. When the new roof work was completed, the entire crew cleaned everything up and were ready to leave around 3 pm that same day. I am grateful for the exceptional customer service, the quality of the materials and workmanship; the attention to detail and care of my property and the beautiful new Fortified Room SunnBuilders installed on my home. They are a wonderful company to work with and their work is first class. read more
