03 / YOUR ROOF IN MISSISSIPPI
If you are replacing the roof, ask about the layers beneath the surface as well as the finished look.
Ask how the quote handles roof-deck attachment, sealing and roof edges. IBHS’s FORTIFIED guidance explains why these details matter when wind and rain test a roof.

of recorded days with thunderstorm wind fell in May through August.
Use the history to plan a conversation about materials and inspections. A statewide pattern cannot tell you whether your home was hit.
Each calendar day with at least one NOAA report of thunderstorm wind is counted once across Mississippi. Only complete years, 2017–2025, are included. There are 516 such days in this window. Reports describe weather, not damaged homes or separate storms. This series excludes non-thunderstorm high wind and hurricane event categories.

A FEW USEFUL ANSWERS

Research reviewed September 18, 2026.
Start with roof size, material and complexity—not just the size of your house. Our calculator uses national Angi reference ranges and explains its assumptions; it is not a measured statewide average. Use it to plan, then compare written local quotes for the same scope.
Build a replacement budgetChoose a nearby roofing company and call to confirm that it handles active leaks or temporary protection, how soon it can come, and any callout charge. An office nearby does not guarantee emergency availability. Stay off a wet or damaged roof; keep clear of sagging ceilings and water near electrical fixtures.
Find nearby roofing companies to callSometimes. Ask the roofer to show where the leak starts, what a repair would fix, and the condition of the surrounding roof. Widespread deterioration or recurring problems may change the recommendation. A leak alone is not proof that the whole roof needs replacing.
See what to ask before approving the workCheck the business and its current contractor license in Mississippi’s official lookup. Match the business name and the classification for your job. Contact the Board if records are unclear.
Open Mississippi license lookupThe answer depends on your address and the work. Ask the city or county building department before work starts. Have the quote say who will obtain any required permit and arrange inspections.
Find local roofing helpAsk for both options on the same measured roof and written scope. Compare the installed price, roof preparation, flashing details and workmanship coverage. Your roof’s design and the exact products matter more than the material name alone.
Compare material planning rangesPhotograph visible changes from the ground and arrange an inspection if you notice leaks or missing shingles. Stay off a wet or damaged roof. Nearby storm reports help establish the date and area; an inspection establishes what happened to your home.
Use the after-storm inspection checklistThe covering is one part of the system. Ask about roof edges, attachment and the layer that limits water entering beneath the covering. IBHS’s FORTIFIED guidance explains these details; a designation has its own inspection and documentation requirements.
