How to check MAC Construction on the Alabama record
Alabama roofing-license requirements are not yet covered by our verification program — confirm licensing and insurance with your city or county building department
- Compare the registry name with the name on the contract, and read the status line.
- Go to the registry and search by license number first, business name second.
- Ask for a certificate of insurance sent straight from the insurer. A registry listing does not prove coverage.
- An expiry before your finish date is a reason to ask questions.
Hail record for Dothan and Houston County
Add up the hail reports NOAA logged for Houston County since 2017 and you reach 12. On 6 days at least one stone measured 1 inch or more. 1 of those days had golf-ball hail or bigger. The biggest stone was 2.75 inches, about a baseball. The most recent golf-ball day on file dates to 2024.
Houston County has too few reports for a fair density rank inside Alabama, so read the counts above as a floor.
43 percent of reports fall between April and July, and March alone has 36 percent. 6 months of the year are nearly hail-free on file.
The strongest logged thunderstorm gust is 85 mph.
The same record has 30 tornadoes, with EF2 the highest rating.
If a storm does come through, take dated photos of the roof first. Whoever you hire, MAC Construction included, should put the inspection findings in writing.
