Quick answer
Roofing in Collier Hills, Atlanta is mostly full replacements and storm repairs on post-war brick ranches and the larger homes that have replaced some of them, and the phone is answered around the clock. We replace roofs to the decking, fix attic ventilation, repair tree and wind damage and keep gutters clear under the hardwoods. City of Atlanta permits apply, and we pull them.
Collier Hills
Post-war ranches
Collier Hills was built out mostly after the Second World War: one-story brick ranches with low-pitched hip and gable roofs, carports and modest attics. Many of those roofs are on their second or third replacement, and the low attics often run hot because the original ventilation was never adequate.
On a ranch replacement we strip to the decking, replace soft boards, and balance the intake and exhaust ventilation while the roof is open, which helps the new shingles last and cools the house.
Ranches
Rebuilds and additions
Some original ranches have been replaced by larger two-story homes, and others have grown second stories or rear additions. Those projects add steep roofs, valleys and roof-to-wall joints to a neighborhood of simple low roofs, and they are where we see most of the new leaks.
Trees and storms
Trees and storms
The creeks and parks keep Collier Hills heavily wooded, which means limbs on roofs after storms, gutters full of leaves, and shaded slopes that stay damp. We repair tree damage, clear and guard gutters, and check flashing after the big summer storms.
What we see on Collier Hills roofs
Collier Hills sits in a northwest Atlanta planning district where 63 percent of occupied homes were owner-occupied in the last full census count, with an owner vacancy rate of just 3 percent, so most roofs here belong to people who have lived under them for years. The calls are full replacements on ranches that have reached their second or third roof, attic ventilation, and storm and tree damage along the creeks.

Collier Hills roofing questions
Many post-war ranches have too little intake ventilation at the eaves. Balancing intake and ridge exhaust during a replacement lowers attic heat and helps the shingles last.
Yes. It is inside the City of Atlanta, so a replacement needs a city building permit and must meet the cool-roof rule. We pull the permit.
Yes. Limbs often crack decking or lift shingles that leak in the next rain. We check and photograph it for insurance.
We match the shingle as closely as possible, or reroof both together so the color is consistent and the joint is flashed properly.
