Roof replacement in Johns Creek
Roof replacement means stripping the existing roof down to the deck (or in some cases overlaying, though tear-off is the more durable choice) and installing new underlayment, flashing, and roof covering. In Johns Creek, that's typically asphalt shingles, though some homes in the area use architectural shingles, metal panels, or tile. A full replacement is a bigger job than a repair: it addresses the whole system at once, including the decking underneath, which matters if you've had leaks or storm damage that may have caused rot or soft spots.
Before hiring, ask about the manufacturer certifications a crew holds (some warranties require certified installers), whether they pull permits and schedule the required inspections, and how they handle decking replacement if it's needed but wasn't in the original estimate. Get a written scope that spells out the shingle brand and line, underlayment type, ventilation plan, and cleanup process, not just a total price. Insurance (both liability and workers' comp) and a physical local address are worth confirming too, especially after hailstorms bring in crews that don't stick around for warranty claims.
