Owens Corning Duration Roof Replacement After Hail in Cumming, GA

Project At-a-Glance

• Roof size: ~45 squares (~4,500 sq ft)
• Shingle brand/color: Owens Corning Duration, Williamsburg Gray
• Insurer: Auto-Owners Insurance
• City: Cumming, GA

Challenge: Steep slopes, mixed materials, and gated-access logistics in Cumming, GA

The roof included steep 10/12–12/12 slopes that required enhanced safety planning and staging. A small back-screen section carried legacy 3-tab shingles, adding detail work at transitions. Working within a guarded, gated community meant coordinating entry and protecting the on-site pool and surrounding landscaping throughout.

Solution: Full tear-off, synthetic underlayment, and ridge-vented Owens Corning system

Our team provided a complete roofing replacement in Cumming, GA designed for long-term performance and clean curb appeal.

• Coordinated gate access and fully tarped/protected the pool and landscaping before work began
• Removed the satellite dish and performed a one-layer tear-off across ~45 squares; staged material and dumpster per site plan
• Replaced five sheets of roof decking where needed; installed synthetic underlayment and black drip edge for reliable water management
• Installed Owens Corning Duration architectural shingles (Williamsburg Gray) with starter course and high-profile ridge caps for a finished look
• Confirmed continuous ridge-vent ventilation and installed four new pipe boots; detached and reset the attic fan and two exhaust caps
• Addressed select hail-damaged gutter and downspout sections to complete the weather-proofing envelope

Result: Strong, clean, and storm-ready—peace of mind for the homeowner

The new roofing system delivers durable protection against Georgia weather, improved attic airflow via ridge ventilation, and a refreshed Williamsburg Gray aesthetic that elevates curb appeal.
