Complete architectural roof replacement on luxury home — Apex Roofing
Full System Replacement

Architectural
Roof Replacement

We don't just replace shingles. We engineer and install complete, high-performance roofing systems — from structural deck to ridge cap — designed to last 50 years and perform through Georgia's hail seasons, summer storms, and everything in between.

The problem with ordinary replacements.

Most roofing contractors replace what's visible and leave what's hidden. Old decking with hidden rot stays in place. Ventilation deficiencies go uncorrected. Flashing is recaulked rather than rebuilt. The result is a brand-new-looking roof built on a compromised foundation.

That system will fail years ahead of schedule — quietly, from the inside out — and no one will take responsibility when it does.

The Apex system.

We strip the roof to bare wood. We inspect every inch of decking. We rebuild the ventilation system if it's deficient. Then we install a true integrated system — every layer engineered to work together for 50 years.

  • Full structural decking inspection + replacement of compromised sections
  • Ice & water shield at all eaves, valleys, and penetrations
  • Synthetic high-breathability underlayment over full field
  • Premium architectural-grade shingles, ridge, and starter
  • Ventilation engineering — ridge, soffit, and attic airflow calculated
  • All flashing rebuilt from metal — no caulk-over-caulk patches

Material Selection

Elite materials. Chosen for your specific roof.

We don't install the same product on every roof. Our estimators match material selection to your home's architecture, your regional exposure, and your 30-year performance goals. Every product we install is sourced from manufacturers whose material science we've evaluated firsthand.

GAF Timberline HDZ & Grand Sequoia

The region's most installed architectural shingle — dimensional shadow profiles, algae resistance, and 50-year coverage.

Impact-resistant Class 4 options

Available for clients seeking maximum hail resistance. May qualify for home insurance premium reductions of up to 20%.

Cool-roof reflective options

Energy Star rated shingles that reduce attic heat gain by up to 25%, improving comfort and lowering cooling costs.

Installation Components

Everything that goes into a proper replacement

Structural Decking

Full inspection of all plywood or OSB decking with immediate replacement of any delaminated, soft, or water-damaged sections before installation begins.

Ice & Water Shield

Self-adhering waterproof membrane applied at all eaves (minimum 3'), valleys, dormers, and around all penetrations and skylights.

Synthetic Underlayment

Breathable polymer underlayment over the full field — superior moisture resistance and tear strength versus traditional felt paper.

Drip Edge & Starter

Galvanized or aluminum drip edge at all eaves and rakes. Pre-formed starter course for proper first-course adhesion and wind resistance.

Ridge Vent System

Continuous ridge vent balanced with soffit intake for proper attic ventilation — critical to shingle longevity and moisture management.

GAF Master Elite Installation

Our certification-level installation process meets every GAF specification required for the System Plus and Golden Pledge® warranty tiers.

Client Rating
"They found significant decking damage during tear-off that our previous contractor had been patching over for years. They showed me every piece they replaced before covering it. That level of transparency is rare."
Michael and Susan B.
Marietta, GA · Full Replacement
"Apex completed our 3,800 sq ft roof in a single day. On schedule, no surprises on price, and the work was immaculate. The project manager was on-site the entire time."
Charles V.
Alpharetta, GA · Architectural Shingle Replacement
"We upgraded to designer shingles instead of standard architectural based on Apex's recommendation. The difference in how the house looks is dramatic. Worth every dollar of the premium."

The Replacement Protocol

A surgical approach to property transformation.

01

Diagnostic Assessment

Interior and exterior inspection using drone technology. We evaluate ventilation adequacy, decking condition, flashing integrity, and structural performance before quoting.

02

Detailed Proposal

A written scope with specific material products, layer-by-layer specifications, contingency terms for decking replacement, timeline, and complete warranty documentation.

03

Property Protection

Tarps, plywood, and protective boards are deployed on day one. Your landscaping, driveway, and windows are fully protected before any material comes off the roof.

04

Precision Tear-off

All old materials removed to bare wood. Decking assessed section by section. Any compromised panels replaced before the new system begins.

05

System Installation

Layer-by-layer installation from ice guard to ridge cap, with quality checkpoints at each stage and a project manager on-site throughout.

06

Final Polish & Sign-off

Triple magnetic sweeps, gutter clearing, complete site cleanup, and a final roof walkthrough with the project manager before warranty documentation is issued.
