Full Roof Replacement — Done Right the First Time
When a roof has reached the end of its serviceable life, patching and spot repairs stop making financial sense. A full roof replacement from Apex Roofing Atlanta gives your home a fresh start with modern materials, a clean underlayment system, and a manufacturer warranty that protects your investment for decades.
We complete most residential replacements in a single day. Our crew arrives early, installs perimeter protection for your landscaping and siding, strips the existing roofing system to the deck, and inspects every square foot of sheathing before the new materials go on. Any rotted or soft decking is replaced before we proceed — no shortcuts.

Shingle Options We Install
We are certified installers for both CertainTeed and GAF — two of the most trusted names in roofing. This certification matters: it means we can offer extended manufacturer warranties that uncertified contractors cannot.
- 3-Tab Shingles — The entry-level option. 20-year lifespan. Best for tight budgets or homes where resale value is not a primary concern.
- Architectural (Dimensional) Shingles — Our most popular choice. 30-year lifespan, stronger wind rating, better curb appeal, and modestly higher resale value. The right answer for most Atlanta homes.
- Premium Designer Shingles — Slate-look and wood-shake profiles. 50-year lifespan ratings. Ideal for higher-end homes where aesthetics and longevity are priorities.
Why Atlanta Homes Need Quality Roofing
Georgia’s climate is hard on roofs. Atlanta averages nearly 50 inches of rainfall per year — significantly above the national average. Add the intense summer UV exposure, hail season from March through May, and occasional ice events in winter, and a subpar roof installation will show its weaknesses within a few years.
We install our shingles to withstand the conditions Atlanta actually throws at them. That means proper nailing patterns, appropriate ventilation to reduce heat buildup in the attic, and flashing details that won’t fail when a summer storm drops two inches of rain in an hour.
Certified Installation Matters: As a GAF Master Elite® and CertainTeed SELECT ShingleMaster™ contractor, we can register your manufacturer warranty directly — including the Golden Pledge® and SureStart Plus™ programs that cover both materials and labor for up to 50 years.
What Does a Roof Replacement Cost in Atlanta?
Replacement costs vary based on roof size, pitch, current layer count, shingle selection, and the condition of your decking. The honest answer is that we can’t give you a meaningful number without seeing your roof. What we can tell you is that our estimates are itemized and transparent — you’ll know exactly what you’re paying for before we start.
Most Atlanta homeowners pay between $8,000 and $18,000 for a full single-family replacement with architectural shingles. Insurance claims for storm damage often reduce your out-of-pocket cost to your deductible only. Call us — we’ll give you a real number, not a range.
