Roof Replacement in Atlanta — FAQ
Full roof replacement in Atlanta typically ranges from $8,000–$25,000 for a standard single-family home, depending on roof size, material choice, and complexity. Architectural shingles average $4.50–$7.00 per square foot installed, while premium materials like metal or tile run $10–$18 per square foot.
Most residential roof replacements in Atlanta are completed in 1–3 days. A standard asphalt shingle tear-off and re-roof on a single-story home typically takes 1 day. Larger homes, complex roof designs, or material changes (to metal or tile) may require 2–5 days.
Consider replacement if your Atlanta roof is over 20 years old, has multiple active leaks, shows widespread granule loss, has curling or cupping shingles, or if repairs would cost more than 30% of replacement cost. Our inspectors provide honest assessments and never push unnecessary replacements.
For most Georgia homes, architectural asphalt shingles offer the best value — they're durable, affordable, and available in many styles. In storm-prone Atlanta areas, impact-resistant Class 4 shingles are recommended. Metal roofing is excellent for longevity (50+ years) and energy efficiency in Georgia's climate.
Yes. Most Atlanta municipalities require a building permit for full roof replacements. Our contractors handle all permit applications, inspections, and compliance with Georgia building codes — you don't need to worry about any of the paperwork.
Absolutely. Roof replacement is an exterior project and does not require you to leave your Atlanta home. Expect some noise and vibration during tear-off, and our crews will protect your landscaping and property from debris. Most homeowners go about their normal routines.
Our Atlanta roof replacements include dual warranty protection: a manufacturer's material warranty (typically lifetime limited for architectural shingles) plus our own 10-year workmanship warranty covering installation quality. We handle all warranty registration on your behalf.
