Roofing in Mississippi: What You Need to Know

Mississippi roofs endure extreme heat, year-round humidity, and severe weather including tornadoes and Gulf Coast hurricanes. The southern part of the state is in the hurricane impact zone. High moisture levels promote rapid algae and moss growth on all roof surfaces.

Mississippi requires roofing contractors to hold a license from the Mississippi State Board of Contractors for projects over $50,000 (residential) or $10,000 (commercial). Verify at msboc.us.
