I had a leaking roof that was replaced. Can that be filed in Federal or State (Alabama)?

On a personal residence, not used as a rental or in a business, the roof replacement is not deductible on a tax return.  The cost of the improvement to the home is included in the Adjusted Basis of the home when it is sold.
