Services | Birmingham Roofing & Maintenance | Birmingham, IA
From quick fixes to major projects, Birmingham Roofing & Maintenance has been the roofing contractor Birmingham homeowners call for 19 years. Here's a rundown of what we offer.
Roof Replacement
After tear-off, we always check decking and replace what's needed. Soft spots mean moisture intrusion. The old roof was leaking longer than you realized. We use 7/16" or 15/32" CDX plywood depending on rafter spacing. New decking costs $75-$120 per sheet installed. We only replace what's actually damaged.

We repair asphalt shingle, metal, flat membrane, and tile roofs. Our trucks carry common repair materials so most fixes happen same-visit. Shingle repairs, flashing replacement, pipe boot swaps, ridge cap fixes, valley re-flashing. All routine for our Birmingham crews.

After every major storm in Birmingham, out-of-town companies flood the area offering free inspections. They're not all bad, but many are. We're local, we're licensed, and we'll be here to honor the warranty. Storm chasers won't be.

New construction underlayment per IRC R905 and ASTM D226 (felt) or ASTM D6757 (synthetic). Ice barrier per ASTM D1970 required at eaves in climate zones with average January temperature below 25°F. We install ice and water shield regardless. It's cheap insurance against ice dams and wind-driven rain. Drip edge per IRC R905.2.8.5 on eave and rake edges. Proper starter strip with factory sealant for wind resistance from day one.

Standing seam metal is the longest-lasting residential roofing material you can install. 40-60 year lifespan, virtually zero maintenance, and it sheds hail and debris better than any shingle. Our Birmingham metal crews install residential and commercial standing seam, corrugated, and metal shingle profiles.

The difference between a cheap shingle roof and a quality one comes down to the system underneath. Shingles are only the outer layer. Ice and water shield in the valleys, synthetic underlayment across the deck, proper starter strip with factory adhesive, correct nailing pattern. That's what makes a shingle roof last in Iowa's weather.

The number one cause of flat roof failure is ponding water. Standing water that doesn't drain within 48 hours after rain. We solve ponding by installing tapered insulation systems that create positive slope to drains, scuppers, or roof edges. Minimum 1/4" per foot of slope eliminates standing water.

We install Carlisle SynTec and Firestone TPO membrane systems in 60-mil and 80-mil thickness over minimum R-25 polyiso insulation (more in climate zones requiring it). Seams hot-air welded at 900°F+ and tested with a seam probe. Fully adhered systems for wind uplift zones per FM I-90 or I-120. Mechanically attached for re-roofs over existing insulation. NRCA member, trained per manufacturer specifications.

We custom-form seamless aluminum gutters on-site from a continuous coil of .027 gauge stock. No factory seams means no seam failures. We form them to the exact length your fascia requires. One piece, one gutter, no leaks.
Get a Free Quote →Roof Inspection
Our inspection covers the roof and the attic. From the attic, we check for daylight through the roof deck, moisture stains on rafters, mold on sheathing, and ventilation function. Problems in the attic often indicate roof issues that aren't visible from the surface.

Our trucks carry 20x30 reinforced tarps, 2x4 lumber, plywood sheets, pipe boots, ridge cap shingles, flashing stock, roofing cement, and neoprene screws. We show up ready to secure your roof, not ready to schedule a follow-up appointment.

Tubular skylights work where standard skylights can't. Interior bathrooms, hallways, closets. A reflective tube runs through the attic from a small rooftop dome to a ceiling diffuser. Brings in surprisingly good natural light. We install them in 2-3 hours.
