Roofing in Edwards, MS
Nearly one home in five in Edwards is a manufactured home: 89 of 472 housing units, 18.9 percent. That is the first thing our inspection settles, because a manufactured home's covering fastens to a light frame built to a federal standard rather than to a code-framed rafter and a sheathed deck, and Mississippi's construction code adoption does not reach it at all.
Anchoring, edge detail and penetration flashing are different work, and the price is different work too. Where the honest answer is a crew that specializes in that housing type, we will tell you so at the inspection and no quote will follow from us.
Median owner-occupied value here is 93,400 dollars, the second lowest of the twenty-five towns. On a house at that value a full replacement is a very large fraction of the asset, and a repair that buys five honest years is often the better decision rather than merely the cheaper one. We price both and say which we would take.
The stock is old and almost entirely low-rise: median year built 1977, with 37.5 percent predating 1970, 72.5 percent single-unit detached and only 2.8 percent in buildings of five or more units. Owner occupancy is 75.4 percent, so the person deciding is nearly always the person living with the decision.
The dated events here are trees and one tornado. On Christmas Day 2012 a large tree fell on a house in Edwards causing heavy damage and injuring two people. On 28 April 2014 an EF1 tore significant roofing material off a house along Highway 22 and destroyed a tin carport on Good Hope Road.
On 26 March 2005 a supercell laid a swath of nickel to ping pong ball hail from Edwards through Bolton to Clinton, causing minor damage to many roofs and vehicles. Minor hail damage on an already old roof is the hardest call in this business, and we photograph it slope by slope rather than declaring it.
One filing note worth knowing. The 11 June 2012 wind entry whose narrative opens with trees blown down along Utica Street in Edwards is filed under Clinton, ten miles east of here. The database is organized by where the report was taken, not by where the tree fell, and that is a distinction a door-knocker will never draw for you.
About Edwards, MS — and why local matters here
Edwards sits in Hinds County with a population of roughly 995, close enough to Jackson that crews move between the two constantly. Local landmarks and corridors residents know well include Interstate 20 at Edwards, the Big Black River at Edwards.
Local knowledge is not a marketing line here. Edwards properties share soil, weather, permit rules and construction eras with the rest of Hinds County, and a roofing contractor who works the area weekly already knows what fails locally and what holds up. That is the difference between a bid and an accurate bid.

Roofing work we do in Edwards, MS
Jackson Roof Pros covers the same range of work in Edwards that we do in Jackson — nothing is carved out because the address is a few miles up the road:
- Metal Roofing — Metal is a fifty-year covering and it is the least forgiving thing you can install on a house that is still moving. Both of those are true, and together they shape nearly every metal conversation we have in this county.
- Tile Roofing — Tile is uncommon in central Mississippi and there are reasons for that. It is heavy, the supply of matching pieces here is thin, and the framing on a typical local house was never sized to carry it.
- Flat & Low-Slope Roofing — On a low-slope roof in this belt, ponding that was not there five years ago is not a roofing defect. It is a level reading, and it is telling you the deck beneath it has changed shape.
- Roof Coatings & Sealing — We say no to more coating jobs than we accept, and this page is where we explain that. A coating is one unbroken film.
- Roof Ventilation — Attic ventilation here has a job beyond keeping shingles cool. It holds the framing at a stable moisture content, and framing that swells and shrinks on its own schedule adds to the movement the ground is already delivering.
- Skylights — Most skylight leaks in this market are not leaks at the flashing. They are failures at the shaft, and which one you have decides whether the fix costs a few hundred dollars or several thousand.
