Roof Replacement in Atlanta
Many Atlanta homeowners start thinking about roof replacement when their roof reaches 15–25 years old. If your roof was installed 20 years ago, it may still look "fine" from the ground — but age-related wear often shows up underneath first.
If you're unsure whether you need a full replacement or just repairs, a professional inspection can help you decide.
How long does a roof last?
Most common roofing materials in Atlanta have expected lifespans:
- Asphalt shingle roofs: 15–25 years
- Architectural shingles: 20–30 years
- Metal roofing: 40+ years
Heat, storms, and humidity can shorten lifespan, especially if ventilation or flashing wasn't installed correctly.
Signs it may be time to replace your roof
You may want to consider roof replacement if you notice:
- Curling or brittle shingles
- Granules collecting in gutters
- Repeated leaks or repairs
- Sagging areas or soft spots
- Your roof is 20+ years old, even without visible damage
At this stage, repairs often become temporary fixes rather than long-term solutions.
Repair vs replacement — how to decide
Not every older roof needs replacement right away.
A qualified roofing professional can help determine:
- Whether repairs will actually hold
- If storm or hail damage is present
- Whether insurance may cover part of the cost
- How much life your current roof realistically has left
Getting clarity early helps avoid emergency situations later.
