ROOFING OPTIONS
Not a textbook, just the options people ask about most: what they cost relative to each other, how long they last, and who they suit. We'll walk through them with you when we come out.
Layered, dimensional shingles in a wide range of colors. What most homes in North Georgia have.
Best for: Most homes, most budgets, and nearly every insurance replacement.
Clean vertical panels with raised seams. Modern farmhouse to contemporary.
Best for: Homeowners planning to stay long-term, lake homes, and anyone tired of replacing shingles.
Distinctive barrel or flat profiles. Mediterranean, Spanish and some traditional styles.
Best for: Homes designed for tile, where the structure already supports the weight.
Natural stone, each piece slightly different. The classic high-end roof.
Best for: Historic and high-end homes, and owners who want a roof that outlasts the mortgage.
A smooth white or gray membrane. Not meant to be seen from the street; meant to stay watertight where shingles can't.
Best for: Commercial buildings, and the flat or low-slope sections of homes: porches, additions and garages.
OUR HONEST TAKE
They're what insurance replaces like for like, they're the fastest to install, and a good architectural shingle with proper ventilation will last 25 to 30 years here.
If you're staying in the house for the long haul, or you're on the lake and tired of wind and tree damage, metal is worth the extra cost. Tile and slate are beautiful, but they need a structure built for the weight, so they're usually a conversation for new construction or a historic home.
If part of your roof is flat, or all of it is, shingles won't work there. That's where we install TPO, on homes and on commercial buildings alike.
Whatever you choose, we install it with ice-and-water shield in the valleys, synthetic underlayment, new flashing and real ventilation. The material matters less than what's under it.
