Fulton County
Roofing across Fulton County, city by city
Our service office is on Peachtree Street, so Fulton County is home ground. It is also a county made almost entirely of cities, which means the rules for a new roof change at every city line, from Atlanta's cool-roof ordinance to the permit office in Roswell.

Quick answer
Roofing in Fulton County, Georgia runs from our service office at 230 Peachtree Street to Sandy Springs, Roswell, Alpharetta, Johns Creek and South Fulton, and the phone is answered around the clock. We repair leaks, handle storm damage, replace shingle, metal and flat roofs and work on commercial buildings. Permits run through the city the building sits in, and we pull them.
Fulton County
A county of cities
Since the City of South Fulton was incorporated in 2017, Fulton County has had no unincorporated residential areas, and the county stopped providing services such as zoning and code enforcement. In practice that means there is no single Fulton County roof permit. The permit comes from whichever city the house or building is in, whether that is Atlanta, Sandy Springs, Roswell, East Point or another city, and each one has its own office and its own process.
The rules differ too. Atlanta's cool-roof ordinance is a City of Atlanta law, so a full replacement inside city limits needs a reflectance-rated product, while the same job a mile north in Sandy Springs does not. We check the city, the permit and any historic district rules for the address before we quote.
Intown and South Fulton
Intown and South Fulton
Inside Atlanta, the work runs from bungalows and four-squares with plank decking in neighborhoods such as Inman Park and Grant Park to new infill with complicated roof lines and flat roof sections. Homes in the city's locally designated historic districts need a Certificate of Appropriateness for exterior changes, including roof replacement, and we include that step in the schedule.
South Fulton, East Point and College Park bring a lot of brick ranches and split-levels, many on their second or third roof, plus commercial and industrial roofs near the airport. Leak repairs, flat roof sections over additions and full shingle replacements make up most of it.
North Fulton
North Fulton
Sandy Springs, Roswell, Alpharetta, Johns Creek and Milton have larger houses with steeper, more cut-up roofs, more slate and cedar accents, and heavy tree cover that keeps valleys and gutters full. Interest in standing seam metal has grown fastest up here, and labor and permit costs run higher than in rural Georgia, which shows up in replacement pricing.
What we see on Fulton County roofs
Fulton County hands every permit to its cities, so a re-roof in Atlanta, Sandy Springs or South Fulton starts with the right city office, and only Atlanta adds the cool-roof requirement. Intown historic districts such as Inman Park and Grant Park add a Certificate of Appropriateness to the schedule, while the steep north Fulton roofs around Alpharetta lean toward standing seam metal and higher labor costs.
