Gutter Repair & Tune-Ups
Many homeowners are told they need full replacement when a targeted repair would solve the issue. At Patriot Roofing & Builders, we look for the most cost-effective fix first — that might be gutter repair in Birmingham, re-securing sagging gutter runs in Hoover, gutter leak repairs in Homewood, fascia board repair in Vestavia Hills, downspout repair in Mountain Brook, or gutter alignments in Trussville. Whether it is clearing downspout blockages, re-sealing corner miters, or re-pitching gutters for proper gravity flow, our crews handle all neighborhoods across Jefferson and Shelby counties.

Hidden Hanger Upgrades
We replace loose spikes with heavy-duty hidden hanger screws that anchor securely to rafter tails.

Knollwood
Located in the Knollwood neighborhood of Mountain Brook, this white painted brick house underwent a full roof replacement. The old shingles were fully removed, allowing for the installation of new plywood sheathing over the existing horizontal wood roof planks. The work addressed multiple architectural surfaces, combining traditional shingle roofing with low-slope flat roofing sections. New white gutter installation was also completed along the roofline, matching the home's trim and columned front porch entry. The multi-panel skylight array on the rear roof plane was carefully sealed and integrated into the new shingles to ensure long-term weather protection.

Greystone
An existing stamped-concrete patio on this single-story white brick home in the Greystone neighborhood of Hoover served as the foundation for a new enclosed porch addition. Structural wooden framing was erected directly over the patterned concrete surface, tying the new hip roof structure directly into the home's existing roofline. Large rough-openings were framed into the walls to accommodate future window installations. After sheathing the exterior in protective house wrap, a siding installation was completed to finish the outer walls. Additionally, a roof replacement utilized matching gray architectural shingles to seamlessly blend the new addition with the rest of the residence.
