At Accent Roofing Service, our mission is to deliver the best contractor experience you’ve ever had. With over 30 years of serving the Greater Atlanta and Athens areas, we’ve built a reputation for excellence, combining skilled craftsmanship with unmatched customer care to protect your most valuable investment—your home. We’re proud of our accolades, including 14 consecutive Angi Super Service Awards, 11 consecutive Best of Gwinnett Awards, the 2024 Nextdoor Neighborhood Fave Award, and the 2024 Atlanta’s Best Award. We also maintain an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau and offer some of the industry’s most comprehensive warranties for peace of mind. Safety and quality are at the core of everything we do. We carry full liability and workers’ compensation insurance, and every roof replacement is managed by an on-site project manager to ensure the highest level of craftsmanship. Our team is also GAF Master Elite certified, putting us among the top 2% of contractors nationwide. At Accent Roofing, our two primary goals are simple: deliver an amazing client experience and craft the best roof possible. We’re honored to be the trusted choice for so many homeowners and look forward to serving you and your family!

"Accent Roofing is an outstanding company to do business with. I cannot say enough good things about them. They were professional from start to finish and made replacing our roof an easy process. When we decided to reroof our home, we researched roofing companies in the greater Atlanta area. After interviewing several companies, we found Accent’s impressive with a sizable 5-star review count by satisfied customers. Every single person we engaged with at Accent (whether the phone crew in the office( Ashley ), Bobby who came out to the house to give us the quote, Jessica who came out to the house at several points to document the state of the outside of the house before the project began and after completed. Even the company who dropped off the dumpster bin in the driveway the night before the crew showed up was extremely professional and knowledgeable. The professionalism of this company is beyond compare. Bobby Wiggins was thorough with shingle samples, product warranty and explaining the installation timeline, tearing off the old roof, inspecting & replacing roof decking, Installing drip edge, covering the roof decking with underlayment, waterproof membrane installation, flashing the walls, shingles installation, roof vents-pipe boots, ridge cap shingles and clean up. Our job site manager, Gabe , was incredible. He provided updates all during the day with aerial views of stages of roof replacement . The installation crew ( Jesus Crew )did an outstanding job starting at 7 am in the morning working throughout the day from tear out to shingles installation. At the end of the day, they cleaned up everything, and I mean everything. There was literally nothing for us to do when the project day was over but enjoy our new roof. I highly recommend Accent Roofing for their professionalism, quality work and top-notch customer service. 5 Stars !!"

"Lucas came out to inspect my roof where I noticed two shingles had been displaced by wind. He climbed up on the roof, confirmed the work that needed to be done and gave me a reasonable quote to take care of it right away. I agreed and he set about his work (fortunately, he had the matching shingles on his truck). When finished, he offered to walk around the roof and look for other areas of concern. He found two spots which were damaged by birds, and took care of them as well at no additional charge. After he was finished, we discussed the overall condition of the roof and he told me that I could easily get a couple of more years out of it, which is what I was hoping to hear. I plan to screen in my back deck and we discussed the roof work that would be done, and some options for finishes, etc. I appreciate the time he took to answer my questions and his quality of work, as well as his friendly demeanor. I will definitely contact him when I'm ready to proceed. "

We can handle your roof, whether you need traditional asphalt shingles replaced, tile roof repair, or metal roof repair. Roofing Resources of GA will always deliver on our promise to ensure the best-quality materials the most professional roofers.

"After sustaining tornado damage to our cabin roof in May, we contracted with RRG Roofing. The contract stated specific structural carpentry work to be done to repair damage. RRG requested, and was given, more money over and above the original adjuster's estimate to cover this damaged area. However, the RRG "carpentry", and I use the term loosely, was substandard and would never have passed an inspection. (RRG didn't pull a permit for this job, although one was required by the county for structural work.) This substandard work, which for brevity purposes was new structural lumber sections not being scabbed in or attached in any way, was pointed out to multiple RRG people the day of the roof job, including the crew leader, project manager, and the original salesman. Pictures were also provided multiple times to multiple people at the RRG main office, including the Warranty specialist and the Production manager. RRG was also notified in writing of all deficiencies, including this. RRG refuses to address this issue, although it was documented in the same photos as other significant issues they have addressed. The sales manager, whose name had been given to us several times as the person who could work with us on this issue, flatly refused to do so. This job was paid in full, and we had faith that RRG would stand behind their work and address any and all deficiencies."

Roofing questions, answered by experts

A metal roof will not make your house hot. In fact, metal roofs reflect heat, keeping your home cooler when the temperature outside rises. In addition to its reflectivity, metal also has a high thermal conductivity, so it gains and loses heat quickly. The sun may cause the metal to heat up, but the roof quickly transfers that heat back into the air around it rather than retaining it and transferring it into your home.

A standard roof can hold a live load of about 20 pounds per square foot. However, gable roofs often have steeper-than-average slopes, so calculating their weight capacity can be challenging. If the slope of your gable roof is greater than 4:12, the live load needs to be decreased to allow for a larger dead load. Ask your roofer exactly how much weight your roof can support.

Yes, replacing a roof is always a good investment if the current one is in poor condition. Not only will it preserve the structural integrity of the home, but it can also add value at the time of sale. The average return on investment for a new roof is between 48% and 61%. Prospective buyers are also more likely to purchase a home with a recently replaced roof since that means they won’t need to worry about that expense in the near future.

Yes, installing a new metal roof will increase your home value. Not only does a new roof boost curb appeal, but a metal roof, in particular, lasts for 40 to 80 years, which is much longer than an asphalt roof. Savvy homebuyers will understand that a metal roof means a longer time before they’ll need to pay for a roof replacement and will likely be willing to pay more for your home.

Sticky shoes help, but you shouldn't be walking on the steel roof— let the pros do that. it's dangerous enough to walk on asphalt shingled roofs which have quite a bit of texture. Stone coating adds a lot of grip, but it still doesn't lock your foot down, so if you absolutely have to be on the roof, make sure you’re secured in another way, like with the harness and rope.
