New Market, Alabama · Madison County
New Market has a historic district on the National Register, and nearly half its houses were built in the 1980s and '90s. We roof and re-side both from our Huntsville office, about 17 miles away.
TL;DR
Three Stone Roofing & Exteriors serves New Market from its Huntsville office, about 17 miles away. New Market has about 600 homes with a median build year of 1992; nearly half were built from 1980 to 1999 and about 11 percent before 1960, and the New Market Historic District is on the National Register. The community is unincorporated, and the Madison County Inspection Department requires permits and inspections there for roofing, re-roofing and siding regardless of cost.
Many New Market roofs from the 1980s and '90s are at the replacement point. About 47 percent of the community's homes were built from 1980 to 1999, by census estimate, so a large share is on an original roof from those decades or on a first replacement nearing its end. The free inspection tells you which, with photos of every elevation sent to you even when there is nothing to fix.
When a roof is due, CertainTeed and GAF architectural shingles cover most houses, in colors like the Weathered Wood in our gallery. Siding of the same age is worth pricing in the same visit; James Hardie fiber cement replaces faded vinyl, and we register its 30-year product and 15-year ColorPlus finish warranties.

Older New Market houses are best served by materials that match them. The New Market Historic District is listed on the National Register, and about one in ten homes in the community predates 1960. On an older house, confirm what applies to your address before choosing a material, then choose among CertainTeed designer shingles, BRAVA composite slate and shake, and standing-seam metal; Three Stone is the only BRAVA Certified Craftsman contractor in Tennessee and Alabama.
Copper half-round and full-round gutters with copper guards, like the set in our gallery, suit the same houses. Our exterior painting runs six steps, from washing and repair through primer to a final inspection.
New Market permits come from Madison County, because the community is unincorporated. The Madison County Inspection Department at 266-A Shields Road, Huntsville (256-746-2950) requires permits and inspections for roofing, re-roofing, window replacement and siding regardless of cost.
On March 2, 2012, the EF-3 tornado that crossed from Limestone County into northeastern Madison County, with winds of 140 mph, passed near New Market, according to the National Weather Service. Roofs installed after it are now past ten years old, and a free inspection shows how they are wearing. Active leaks and fresh damage from any storm are triaged first.

Answers
Yes, New Market is unincorporated, so the Madison County Inspection Department at 266-A Shields Road, Huntsville, AL 35811 (256-746-2950) issues its permits. Under the county's rule, a roof, a re-roof, replacement windows and new siding each need a permit and inspections, whatever the price of the job.
The March 2, 2012 tornado passed near New Market, according to the National Weather Service survey. It was rated EF-3, with 140 mph winds over 34 miles, running from Limestone County into northeastern Madison County. If your roof dates from repairs after that storm, it is now more than ten years old.
Three Stone installs the materials that suit older houses: CertainTeed designer shingles, BRAVA composite slate and shake, and standing-seam metal, along with copper gutters. Because the district is on the National Register, confirm what applies to your address before choosing. Composite and metal take longer than shingles to install, and the proposal says how long.
New Market is about 17 miles from our office at 4960 Corporate Drive, Suite 120, Huntsville, and the number is (256) 434-7333. Inspections cost nothing, most are scheduled within one business day, and leaks or fresh storm damage are handled first.
