Ashford Park was built largely in the 1940s and 1950s with small brick cottages and ranches. Today many of those have been renovated, expanded or replaced with much larger homes, so original roofs and brand-new ones sit side by side.
That means our work here ranges from replacing a worn-out roof on an original cottage to fixing flashing problems on a new build.
What we see on Ashford Park roofs.
- Original cottage roofs. Older homes often have aging shingles, failed chimney flashing and limited attic ventilation.
- Renovation transitions. Additions and second stories create complicated joints between roof sections.
- New-construction defects. We regularly find missing kick-out flashing and short step flashing on newer homes.
- Storm damage. Brookhaven sits in the same storm path as much of north Atlanta.
Before you re-roof in Ashford Park.
If you're planning an addition, talk to a roofer before construction starts. Designing the roof transitions correctly costs far less than fixing leaks later.
Brookhaven permits and inspections
Brookhaven roofing work requires a permit and inspections at the right stages. We pull the permit, schedule the inspections and keep the crew's work sequence aligned with the city's requirements, so the job does not stop waiting for an inspector.
Leaks on newer homes
Many Ashford Park homes have been rebuilt or added onto in the last twenty years. A new roof that leaks usually has a flashing or underlayment problem at a transition, not a shingle defect. We open the area, photograph the layers and tell you what needs correction, and we repair it in writing so the warranty stays with the work.
Frequently asked questions
Do you pull permits in Brookhaven?
Yes. We handle City of Brookhaven roofing permits.
Can you fix a leak on a new home?
Yes. Most new-home leaks come from flashing details. We'll find the cause and give you a report for the builder if needed.
Should I add standing seam to my porch?
It's a durable, attractive option for low-slope porch roofs and accents. We can show you examples.
How soon can you look at a leak on a newer roof?
Call us right away. We aim to inspect within a short window, and we can place a temporary cover to stop water while we review the cause.
