This is the Kennesaw page for new construction roofing. The short version: you want a roofing sub or a quote on a build where the GC's roofer fell through, and you can have it without a salesperson at the door.
Get a written quoteA Class 4 impact-rated shingle is the baseline here, not an upgrade — most carriers discount for it and some are starting to require it on replacements. This is the heart of the I-35 hail corridor, where golf-ball hail arrives most springs and bruises roofs that were fine the year before. Boom-era roofs look fine from the street and fail inspections anyway; granule loss and cracked pipe boots are the usual findings.
What it costs in Kennesaw: priced per square from plans, typically lower than replacement since there's no tear-off or disposal.
Georgia doesn't issue a roofing-specific license — most roofing falls under the state's Residential-Basic or General Contractor license once a job crosses the state's licensing threshold. We check that license, insurance, and standing with the state board before a roofer ever sees a lead.
How it works
Manufacturer material warranty plus the installer's workmanship warranty, same as replacement. Ask for both in writing before the deposit.
Yes, and it's the most accurate quote there is — no guesswork about what's under the old roof.
