Cumming, GA Roof Replacement

So your roof's been through a few Georgia summers. Maybe a couple of those nasty spring hailstorms that roll through Forsyth County like clockwork. And now you're staring at curling shingles and wondering if it's time.

Here's what we won't do — we won't show up and tell you that you need a brand new roof just because a few shingles look rough. Sometimes a solid repair is all you need, and we'll be the first ones to say that. But when the damage runs deeper than the surface — rotted decking, failed underlayment, shingles that crumble when you touch them — patching things up just delays the inevitable.

We've replaced roofs all across Cumming — from the older ranch-style homes near downtown off Pilgrim Mill Road to the newer builds in Windermere and Polo Golf & Country Club. Every house is different, and every roof replacement should be treated that way.

What Happens During a Roof Replacement

Our crew rolls in early, usually around 7 AM before the Forsyth County heat really kicks in. First order of business is protecting everything around your house — tarps over landscaping, plywood leaned against windows and siding, and we bring magnetic rollers for catching stray nails in the grass and driveway.

Then everything comes off. Old shingles, deteriorated underlayment, flashing — all of it gets stripped down to the bare wood deck. This is the part most homeowners don't see but it matters more than anything else. Once that deck is exposed, we can actually see what's going on. Soft spots? Rotted plywood? Water damage around pipe boots? We catch it all right there and replace any compromised decking before a single new shingle goes down.

From there, we install synthetic underlayment — not the cheap felt paper some crews still use. Then ice and water shield in the valleys, around penetrations, and along the eaves. Drip edge gets replaced, new flashing goes in at every wall junction and chimney, and then the shingles go on.

Why GAF Products — And Why It Matters for Your Warranty

We're a GAF Master Elite Contractor, and that's not something you just sign up for. Less than 2% of roofing contractors in the country hold this certification. What it means for you is access to GAF's best warranty coverage — including the Golden Pledge Limited Warranty, which covers both materials and workmanship for up to 25 years.

We install GAF Timberline HDZ shingles on most projects. They're the best-selling architectural shingle in North America for a reason — they look good, they hold up against wind speeds up to 130 mph, and they come with a StainGuard Plus algae protection warranty. Forsyth County gets enough humidity that algae streaks are a real thing on roofs, especially on the north-facing slopes.

How Long Does a Roof Replacement Take?

Most residential roof replacements in Cumming are completed in a single day. That includes tearoff, inspection, decking repairs if needed, and full installation. Bigger homes or roofs with complex features — steep pitches, lots of dormers, multiple valleys — might stretch into a second morning.

We always clean up after ourselves. Magnetic sweeps of the entire yard and driveway, debris hauled away in a dumpster, and a final walk-around with you to make sure everything looks right.

What Does a Roof Replacement Cost in Cumming?

Straight answer — it depends on the size and complexity of your roof. A typical single-story ranch in the Cumming area might run differently than a two-story colonial in Three Chimneys Farm or Ashebrooke. Roof pitch, number of layers to tear off, and any decking damage all factor in.

We provide free, no-obligation estimates. No high-pressure sales tactics, no "sign today" discounts that aren't real. We show up, measure the roof, inspect what we can see, and give you a written quote that breaks down exactly what you're paying for.

If you're dealing with storm damage, we also work directly with insurance companies and can help walk you through the claims process. A lot of our Cumming customers have been surprised to learn their roof replacement was covered after hail damage they didn't even know they had.
