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 !!"

"Mr Sorrows made the entire experience easy and stress free, starting with the estimate and continuing throughout the entire job. They came very early and stayed until the job was done. They had to remove 2 layers of shingles and made repairs. It is clear that Bonafide knows what they are doing; it is also clear that Mr Sorrows was more interested in giving me what I needed instead of trying to sell me what I didnâ t. In other words Mr Sorrows is a honest man, something we donâ t always find. Honestly I am not the kind of person that gush when it comes to reviews, but I am gushing. Donâ t worry about getting numerous estimates, save yourself time and just call Bonafide."

We will provide you with the same great quality work that has kept us in business for years because we feel that our customers come first.

"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. "

Roofing questions, answered by experts

Ridge vents can last as long as your roof does. As long as your ridge vents were installed correctly by a qualified professional, they will need very little upkeep. Inspecting your ridge vents annually to ensure they aren’t cracked, clogged, or leaking will help prolong their lifespan. 

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.

Using an ice and water shield underlayment under a metal roof is a good way to protect the roof and your home from damage in colder climates that see a lot of winter weather. Traditional underlayment isn’t effective underneath a metal roof, though, so be sure to install one specifically made for metal roofs to get the best protection.

Fall is considered the best time of year to fix a roof because temperatures are moderate, and the weather is drier, making repairs safer. Summer can also be a good option, but extreme heat can make shingles too soft and difficult to work with. Spring is a popular time for repairs following damage from winter storms, but frequent rainfall can slow down progress.

The best type of roof vent depends on the size, type, and construction of your roof as well as the environmental conditions in and around your home. In many cases, an active ventilation system that draws in fresh air and exhausts air out through the attic is the most effective. Active ventilation systems include roof ridge vents with baffles, turbine vents, and soffit vents that are used together with another type of vent.
