Roof replacement services in Buford, GA

A new roof shouldn’t feel like rocket science.
We show up in tidy pickup trucks loaded with ladders, hand tools, bundles of shingles, and plenty of elbow grease. No roll-formers, no cranes - just a hard-working crew that tears off the old roof in the morning and nails down the new one by supper.
You’ll see clear before-and-after photos, a simple timeline, and an invoice that reads exactly like the estimate. We cover shrubs with drop cloths, sweep for nails, and back every job with a written workmanship warranty that stands up to Buford wind and rain.

Complete roof replacement solutions

A fresh roof, front-to-back, with no shortcuts and no fancy machinery - just steady ladders, nail guns, and a crew that knows what “finished” really means. We treat every house as if it were our own and won’t leave until the ridge cap shines straight and the yard looks tidier than when we arrived.
• Strip every layer to bare wood - no “lay-overs” that hide future leaks.
• Walk each sheet of decking; swap soft or splintered boards for new 7⁄16" plywood so shingles sit flat.
• Roll out synthetic felt that won’t wrinkle or tear in August heat, stapled tight every eight inches.
• Install full metal drip-edge around eaves and rakes so rain never sneaks behind the fascia.
• Set starter strip and six-nail every shingle in a straight, tight pattern; no wavy rows here.
• Flash every pipe with a new rubber boot, dab roof cement on exposed heads, and fit color-match storm collars on furnace vents.
• Cap the ridge, set the last nail, and run a bead of silicone under the final shingle so wind can’t grab the edge.
• Sweep the lawn and driveway twice with a rolling magnet, bag every scrap, and haul debris off the same day - no dumpster lingering all week.
• Hand you a folder with material labels, warranty cards, and before-and-after photos so you have proof the job was done right.

Fast, reliable scheduling

We know a leaking roof can’t wait. Our calendar always keeps a couple of “rain-risk” slots open for homeowners on a tight timeline, and we keep the process simple from first call to final handshake.
• Material order placed the same day you approve the quote; shingles usually land in your driveway within 24-48 hours.
• Crews roll out one to two days after delivery - earlier if storm warnings pop up.
• Most roofs wrapped in a single long workday; complex hips or dormers may take two easy days, never weeks.
• You get a lunchtime text with progress photos and a quick note if we find any hidden wood damage.
• Weather looks dicey? We tarp anything open and return at sunrise; your home never sits half-covered.
• Final walk-through is side-by-side with you, checking ridge lines, gutters, and magnet sweep.
• Invoice matches the quote - no surprise add-ons - and we’re one call away if you spot anything after the first big rain.

Simple shingle swaps for historic homes

Old house? No problem. Many of Buford’s early-1900s cottages still rely on their original skip-sheathing and decorative fascia, so we leave heavy pneumatic guns behind and stick with hand tools that won’t rattle the trim. A slim pry bar, putty knife, and claw hammer lift nails one by one, keeping fragile boards in one piece. We loosen the surrounding tabs until the swap-spot opens like a window, then tuck in a patch of ice shield so even a future nail pop won’t leak.

Color matching without big budgets: Rather than ordering pricey custom lots, we harvest two or three good shingles from a rear corner the street can’t see, bring them to the supply yard, and lay sample chips against bundles until we find the closest tint. The reclaimed pieces go up front where eyes linger; the new shingles hide out back. A quick sprinkle of spare granules helps the fresh patch blend right away.

Finish touch: After the repair we brush loose paint chips into a dustpan, sweep the porch, and show you a side-by-side phone photo so you can play “spot the patch.” Most owners can’t - and neither can home inspectors who view the roof from ground level.

Budget-friendly energy upgrades

Lower power bills without breaking the bank. The cheapest A/C unit is the one that runs less, and a few small roof tweaks can get you there.

Cool-tone shingles on partial repairs: If only a valley or small slope needs new shingles, we switch to lighter “silverwood” or “weathered gray” bundles that bounce more sun. Even a modest patch can shave attic temps because heat rises and spreads.
Ridge-vent tune-up: We pop the ridge cap, lift the vent a hair if it’s pinched, and clear dust webs by hand. A 10-minute fix, yet it can double airflow on still days.
Attic blanket: For houses with patchy insulation, we blow in a few bags of cellulose with a rental hopper - one crew feeds, one crew sprays. No fancy gauges: we mark a piece of scrap wood at 12 inches, stick it upright, and stop when the fluff reaches the line.

Most homeowners see summertime attic temps drop 15-20 °F and notice the A/C cycles less often that very week. Upgrades paid for in sweat, not high-priced gadgets.

Storm-tough options

Tall pines, open wind paths, sudden storms - Buford roofs take a beating. We harden them with simple swaps that punch above their cost:

Thicker shingles, same hammer: Class 3 or Class 4 bundles come off the same pallet as standard shingles but carry 50-percent more asphalt and fiberglass. They weigh more, lie flatter, and resist hail dings like a champ. We nail them by hand so every strike bites solid decking.
Ring-shank nails over smooth: A ridged ring-shank grips plywood 300 lbf stronger than a smooth shank. One extra box per roof, yet hold-tight insurance discounts often follow.
Starter-strip glue line: We butter a bead of off-the-shelf roof cement under the first course so gusts can’t peel the edge. Five bucks of caulk for peace of mind all hurricane season.

These upgrades don’t require new tools or training - just thicker materials, better nails, and a crew that takes time to hit every nailing line. You sleep easier when thunder rumbles.

Ready for future solar

Planning panels later? Build in the prep today. Even if solar is years out, a few no-nonsense steps during roof work save headaches - and holes - down the road.

Screws, not nails, on the sunny side: We fasten plywood with coated deck screws that won’t back out when installers walk the slope. Cost difference? About ten bucks a square.
Rafter map in plain English: Before felt goes down, we snap bright chalk lines over every truss and jot distances on notebook paper. We hand you the map in a plastic sleeve so installers can hit structure on the first try.
Synthetic underlayment beneath future array: We roll a tougher, UV-resistant felt under the panel zone so heat trapped by panels never cooks standard paper.

No engineering fees, no fancy brackets yet - just thoughtful prep that keeps future crews from guessing and keeps your roof from looking like Swiss cheese when the sun-power day finally arrives.
