Decatur · DeKalb County · Retail
This is the Decatur 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 quoteClass 4 shingle still pays for itself on the fringe because carriers price by county, not by how often your particular street gets hit. Wind is the co-equal peril here; South Texas squall lines lift shingles as often as hail bruises them. Lower pitches on mid-century homes rule out some products and make ice-and-water shield in the valleys non-negotiable.
What it costs in Decatur: 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.
