Roofing help in Georgia
Georgia roofs see hot, humid summers, spring hail and severe thunderstorms around metro Atlanta, and hurricane exposure along Savannah and the coast. Atlanta's tree canopy means falling limbs are a frequent cause of roof damage, and algae streaks are common on shaded roofs.

Trees and storms in metro Atlanta
Atlanta's heavy tree cover shades roofs and drops limbs in storms. Trimming branches back and clearing debris from valleys prevents much of the damage.
Hail in the metro area
Spring storms bring hail to Atlanta and north Georgia often enough that insurance-funded replacements are common.
Coastal hurricanes
Savannah, Brunswick and the Golden Isles face tropical storm winds and rain, where wind-rated installation and secure edges matter.
Housing in metro Atlanta
Metro Atlanta grew dramatically from the 1980s onward, with large suburbs in Gwinnett, Cobb, Cherokee and Forsyth counties. Many homes there have steep, complex roofs with multiple valleys, and builder-grade roofs from the 1990s and 2000s are due for replacement.
Licensing, permits and contracts in Georgia
Georgia licenses residential and general contractors through the State Licensing Board for Residential and General Contractors; roofing-only work is generally handled at the local level, so check your city or county's business license and permit requirements.

Georgia roofing FAQ
Do Georgia roofers need a license?
Licensing for roofing-only contractors is mainly local. Check your city or county requirements, and ask for proof of insurance and a written contract.
Why do Atlanta roofs get black streaks?
Algae thrives on shaded, humid roofs. Soft washing removes it, and algae-resistant shingles slow its return.
