Asphalt Shingle Roof Replacement

Complete tear-off and new asphalt shingle installation for homes when repair is no longer cost-effective. Professional replacement with premium materials and workmanship warranty.

When Replacement Makes More Sense Than Repair

While our asphalt shingle repair services handle many damage situations cost-effectively, there comes a point when complete replacement becomes the smarter investment. Understanding when you've reached that threshold helps you make informed decisions about your home.

Clear Signs You Need Replacement

Age Beyond Lifespan

Roof is 18-25+ years old (depending on shingle type) and showing multiple signs of wear. At this point, repairs are band-aids on a failing system.

Widespread Damage

More than 30-40% of shingles damaged, curling, or missing. Repair costs approach replacement costs at this level of damage.

Multiple Leak Points

Recurring leaks in different areas despite previous repairs indicate systemic failure rather than isolated problems.

Severe Granule Loss

Bare spots visible across the roof, heavy granule accumulation in gutters. The protective layer has failed across large areas.

Structural Concerns

Sagging roof deck, water-damaged decking, or compromised structural integrity requiring tear-off to address underlying issues.

Home Sale Planned

Selling within 1-2 years. New roof provides better ROI and marketability than an aging system with patchwork repairs.

Poor Ventilation Issues

Inadequate attic ventilation causing premature aging. Replacement allows ventilation system upgrades that benefit new roof.

Energy Efficiency Goals

Upgrading to modern energy-efficient shingles with better reflectivity to reduce cooling costs in Georgia heat.

What to Expect: Roof Replacement Process

1

Complete Tear-Off

All existing shingles, underlayment, and flashing removed down to roof decking. This reveals any hidden damage and allows proper inspection of the deck structure.

2

Deck Inspection & Repair

We inspect exposed decking for water damage, rot, or structural issues. Any compromised plywood or OSB is replaced before new roofing installation.

3

New Underlayment Installation

Premium synthetic underlayment or ice/water shield installed for enhanced protection. This creates the waterproof barrier beneath your shingles.

4

Drip Edge & Flashing

New drip edge protects fascia, and all flashing around chimneys, vents, walls, and valleys is replaced or properly installed to code.

5

Shingle Installation

Your chosen asphalt shingles installed following manufacturer specifications with proper nailing patterns, starter strips, and ridge cap installation.

6

Cleanup & Final Inspection

Complete debris removal, magnetic sweep for nails, and thorough cleanup. Final quality inspection ensures proper installation before we consider the job complete.
