TL;DR
Three Stone Roofing & Exteriors serves Cullman from its Huntsville office, about 40 miles away. The city's housing is mostly from 1960 to 1999, with a median build year of 1976, and the National Weather Service lists Cullman on the path of the April 27, 2011 EF-4 tornado. Inside city limits, permits go through the Building Inspection Department at City Hall. Every inspection is free and ends with a photo report and, where work is needed, a written proposal.
NWS Huntsville ties Cullman to the long-track tornado of April 27, 2011, rated EF-4 with peak winds of 175 mph. Its survey lists Cullman among the communities along a 47-mile path that ran across Cullman County, briefly into Morgan County and on into Marshall County.
A Cullman roof replaced after that storm is around fifteen years old now, and one that rode it out may carry damage nobody photographed at the time. In either case the useful step is an inspection with a photo of every elevation, so you know where the roof stands before the next spring storm season.

Most Cullman roofs are replacements already because most of the houses are old enough to have worn out their first. By Census estimates, about 40% were built in the 1960s and '70s, 20% before 1960 and 24% between 1980 and 1999, for a median build year of 1976. Only about one home in six went up after 2000.
On houses that age, a lasting re-roof goes to the deck. Soft boards come out, chimney and sidewall flashing is renewed and the attic ventilation is checked, and then the new CertainTeed or GAF architectural shingles, standing-seam metal or BRAVA composite go on. A typical Cullman house takes one to two days.
The City of Cullman Building Inspection Department, at City Hall, 204 2nd Avenue NE, handles building permits inside city limits; its main line is 256-775-7109. An address outside the city limits is beyond that department's reach, so ask Cullman County which office applies there.
We haven't confirmed the city's specific rules for roofing or siding, so describe the job when you call and get the answer before a start date. Our written proposal, itemized line by line, is the description to read from.
On a 1970s Cullman home, gutters and siding are the upgrades most worth pricing alongside a new roof. We form seamless aluminum gutters on site in 5- or 6-inch K-style, half-round or full-round, and add guards where trees drop leaves onto the roof.
Worn vinyl or wood siding can give way to James Hardie fiber cement; as a Select Contractor we register its 30-year product and 15-year ColorPlus finish warranties. Where the siding is sound, our exterior painting crew washes, masks, repairs, primes, paints and inspects. Garages and basements can take a Penntek polyurea flake floor.
