Roof Installation Dothan AL
New roofing on new construction, additions, and garages — starting from bare decking, no tear-off involved. Builder-compatible binding quotes since 1991.
Installation Is Different From Replacement
Roof installation covers new roofing on structures with nothing to tear off — new construction homes, room additions, detached garages, and commercial new builds. It's a different process from replacement, requires a different building permit, and typically costs less since there's no tear-off labor. MAC Construction handles installation across Dothan and the Wiregrass since 1991, with builder-compatible binding quotes for GCs managing a construction schedule.

Doing It Right From Bare Decking
Stephen McDuffie has installed roofing on new construction homes, additions, and garages across the Wiregrass since 1991 — working directly with homeowners, builders, and general contractors. New construction roofing sets the standard a home will be held to for the next 25 to 50 years, so every flashing detail gets done correctly from the start.
"I approach every new build the same way I approach a high-end replacement — every detail done right the first time, because fixing it later costs three times as much."
Our team of 15 coordinates directly with your general contractor's build schedule, files all required permits, and delivers a builder-compatible binding quote — no verbal estimates that don't work with a draw schedule.

Our Roof Installation Process
Free Consultation & Builder-Compatible Quote
We review your construction plans or meet on-site — binding written quote with materials, labor, permit fees, and a confirmed installation window.
Permit Filing
We file the new construction permit with Dothan city or Houston County and coordinate inspection timing with your build sequence.
Decking Readiness Check
Before any material goes down, we verify decking completion and nailing pattern — any issues reported in writing so your GC can address them immediately.
Systematic Installation
Underlayment first, then starter strips, drip edge, step and valley flashing, field shingles or panels, ridge cap, and ventilation — in that order, every time.
Completion Documentation
Draw-request-compatible completion paperwork, permit close-out coordination, and your 5-year written workmanship warranty starting from occupancy.
Working With Your Builder
If you're managing a construction project, here's what makes coordination easier.
Written, itemized, binding quotes formatted for construction loan draw submission — not a verbal number that doesn't fit your budget structure.
