Storm & hail damage roof repair in Buford

Buford sits right up against Lake Lanier, and the open water has a way of feeding the summer storms that build over it before they push inland across town. Between the older homes around historic downtown Buford and the wave of new subdivisions near the Mall of Georgia, we see two very different kinds of roofs taking storm damage in the same afternoon.

On the newer construction spreading out toward Hamilton Mill and Ivy Creek, the roofs are young but they are large and cut up with a lot of hips and ridges, and wind coming off Lanier tends to lift and crease the shingles along those exposed edges first. The older homes closer to the historic district often carry roofs that were already near the end of their run, so a good hail event knocks the granules loose in round spots and leaves the mat exposed underneath where it starts to break down.

Storm damage near the lake is not always dramatic to look at, which is exactly why it gets missed. A creased tab lays back down and looks fine from the ground until it cracks open over the next few months, and a hail bruise reads as a small dark spot until the granules keep washing off. Our free inspection is done on the roof, where we can actually see it, checking the storm-facing slopes, the vents and flashing where hail dents the soft metal, and the valleys that carry the most runoff on these bigger roofs.

We take dated photos of everything we find and walk you through it in plain terms. If it is storm related it can sometimes be a covered claim, and honest documentation of what is really up there is the part we handle. Buford straddles the Gwinnett and Hall line, and we work both sides of it regularly with our own crews, so the same people who inspect your roof are the ones who repair it.
