Our Roof Replacement Process for Local Homeowners
We understand that a roof replacement can be disruptive to your daily routine. Our project managers coordinate every detail to minimize the impact on your property. We maintain a clean job site and complete most residential installations with efficiency and speed.
Detailed roof inspection and estimate
We begin every project with a comprehensive assessment of your entire roofing system. Our team does not just look at shingles; we examine the decking, flashing, ventilation, and drainage components to identify underlying issues. You receive a clear, written estimate that explains the scope of work without hidden fees or jargon. This ensures you have all the facts before the project begins.
Full debris removal and site protection
A roof replacement is a major construction project, and we treat your property with respect. We use specialized equipment and barriers to protect your landscaping, windows, and driveway from falling debris. Our crews perform a thorough cleanup throughout the process and a final sweep with high-powered magnets to ensure your yard is clear of nails and metal scrap.
Expert installation of GAF roofing systems
We install complete roofing systems rather than just layering new shingles over old problems. As a GAF-certified contractor, our installation process follows strict manufacturer specifications for every component, from the leak barrier to the ridge vents. This professional approach ensures your roof performs as a single, cohesive unit designed to withstand the Atlanta metro areas weather for decades.
Final walkthrough and quality inspection
Our job is not finished until a project manager conducts a final inspection of the work. We walk the roof to verify that every detail meets our commercial-grade standards and your personal satisfaction. We provide a final briefing to explain the completed work and ensure you have all the documentation for your labor and material warranties.

Roof Replacement FAQ
1. How long does a roof replacement take?
Most full residential roof replacements in the Atlanta metro area take one day. Ninety-five percent of our jobs are completed in a single day, typically 7am to completion. Larger homes, complex roof lines, or jobs requiring decking repair can extend to two days. We give you a clear timeline upfront based on your specific roof, and if anything changes during the project, you hear from us before it affects the schedule.
2. Do I need to be home during the replacement?
No. Most homeowners go about their normal day. We need access to your driveway and a clear path around your home for material staging and disposal. You will need to review project documents and select your shingle color before work begins. Our project manager is reachable throughout the job if any questions come up.
3. What is the GAF System Plus Limited Warranty and what does it cover?
The GAF System Plus Limited Warranty is a manufacturer-backed warranty available only through GAF Certified contractors. It is a lifetime warranty with 50-year, 100% coverage on GAF materials, installation labor, and tear-off costs on qualifying roofing systems. As a GAF Certified contractor (ID 1156643), 28 Residential is authorized to install systems backed by this warranty. Specific coverage terms depend on the products selected for your roof, and we walk through the warranty in writing before any work begins.
4. Does insurance cover roof replacement in the Atlanta metro area?
In many cases, yes. Homeowner insurance policies typically cover roof replacement when the damage results from a covered event like hail, wind, or fallen debris. Coverage depends on your specific policy, the cause of damage, and the condition of the roof. Note that some homeowners are changing to policies with high deductibles -- sometimes as high as $10,000 to $12,000 -- which can affect whether filing a claim makes financial sense. We document the damage, work with your adjuster, and help you understand your options before you commit to anything.
5. What is the difference between a repair and a full replacement?
A repair fixes a specific failure point -- flashing, a few damaged shingles, a leak around a vent -- when the rest of the roof is sound. A replacement is the right call when the roof has widespread damage, is near the end of its lifespan, or has structural issues underneath. Repairs can solve problems but are most effective on roofs where the overall structure is still sound. A full replacement starts fresh -- new materials, better protection, and a complete system that holds together as a single unit. We diagnose honestly. If a repair will solve your problem, we will tell you. If you need a replacement, we will tell you that too, and explain why.
6. How much does a roof replacement cost in Atlanta?
Most residential roof replacements in North Atlanta range from $12,000 to $35,000, depending on the size of the roof, the materials selected, the complexity of the roof line, and whether decking or structural work is needed. We provide a free, written estimate after a full inspection so you know exactly what your project costs before any work starts. We do not give over-the-phone estimates because they are almost always inaccurate. All quotes are sent to your email for review.
7. How long does a new roof last?
A properly installed asphalt shingle roof in the Atlanta metro area typically lasts 20 to 30 years, depending on the shingle grade, the quality of installation, ventilation, and weather exposure. Premium architectural shingles backed by a manufacturer warranty like the GAF System Plus tend to perform on the higher end of that range. Roofs that fail early almost always trace back to installation problems -- flashing, ventilation, or improper underlayment. That is why we install to GAF certification standards on every job.
8. Do you handle the permit process?
Residential roofing in Georgia does not require permits. As the homeowner, you authorize the work and we proceed directly. We handle all coordination with your HOA if applicable and manage the project from start to finish without any paperwork burden on you.
9. What happens to my old roof?
We tear off the existing roofing materials, dispose of them the same day, and clean up the site thoroughly. We use protective tarps around the whole house to shield landscaping, run magnetic sweeps over the property at the end of every job to capture nails, and blow away all dust and debris. Disposal is included in the project price -- there are no surprise fees.
10. What if it rains during the replacement?
We monitor weather closely and schedule replacements when the forecast cooperates. If unexpected rain hits during a project, we have protocols to protect your home -- sealed underlayment, weighted tarps, and pause-points built into the work plan so we never leave a roof exposed overnight. We have completed roofs in every kind of Georgia weather. The plan accounts for it.
