Our Story: A Decade Serving Atlanta's Finest Homes
1 Source Roofing and Restoration was built on a straightforward idea: homeowners with exceptional properties deserve a roofing contractor with exceptional standards. When the company was founded and headquartered at 283 Swanson Drive in Lawrenceville, Georgia, the goal was not simply to replace roofs — it was to become the contractor that the most discerning homeowners in metro Atlanta would trust with their most significant investments. Over more than ten years of operation, that vision has defined every project we take on.
The Atlanta metro is one of the most demanding roofing markets in the country. Georgia's climate delivers punishing summer heat, unpredictable spring hail events, and sudden severe storms that can strip shingles, compromise flashing, and drive water into attic systems before a homeowner is even aware damage has occurred. Serving this market well requires more than the ability to swing a hammer — it requires deep knowledge of local building codes, the specific performance requirements of different material systems, and the kind of long-term relationship with a community that turns a first-time customer into a homeowner who refers every neighbor on their street. That is the kind of company we have built.
From our base in Lawrenceville, we serve a 30-mile radius that encompasses the full range of Atlanta's residential landscape: the historic estates of Buckhead, the executive homes along Alpharetta's GA-400 corridor, the equestrian properties of Milton, the lake communities of Buford and Acworth, the downtown revitalization neighborhoods of Woodstock, and the carefully preserved historic districts of Roswell. Each of these communities presents distinct requirements — different architectural styles, different HOA standards, different material specifications — and we have developed the expertise to navigate all of them. Our track record across this territory is not the result of aggressive advertising. It is the result of consistent, high-quality work that earns referrals and repeat calls.
What sets a company apart in any skilled trade is not how many roofs it has installed, but how it handles the difficult projects: the historic home that requires a specific slate-profile material to satisfy a preservation commission review, the insurance claim where the carrier's initial estimate is thousands short of the actual replacement cost, the estate where the homeowner needs a contractor who understands that every decision affects not just weather resistance but also curb appeal, resale value, and the character of a home that took years to build. These are the situations where 1 Source's decade of experience in this specific market matters most.
The Communities We Serve
1 Source Roofing and Restoration operates throughout metro Atlanta, covering a 30-mile service radius from our Lawrenceville headquarters. This geographic reach gives us deep familiarity with the specific roofing challenges, architectural standards, and HOA requirements that vary considerably from one Atlanta community to the next. We do not treat every neighborhood identically — we understand that a historic bungalow in Decatur, a new construction estate in Milton, and a lake-adjacent home in Duluth each require a different approach to materials, installation technique, and long-term performance.
Our most active service communities include the established luxury neighborhoods of Buckhead, where estate homes demand premium materials and precise installation; Alpharetta, where rapid residential growth meets frequent hail activity; Roswell, where Historic Preservation Commission standards govern many residential roofing decisions; and Marietta, one of Cobb County's largest and most active roofing markets. We also maintain substantial project volume in Lawrenceville and the surrounding Gwinnett County communities, where Gwinnett's documented hail activity makes roof replacement and storm-damage restoration among the most common homeowner needs.
Beyond these anchor communities, our service territory extends to Sandy Springs, Dunwoody, Johns Creek, Suwanee, Peachtree Corners, Brookhaven, Decatur, Smyrna, Vinings, East Cobb, Acworth, Kennesaw, Woodstock, Canton, Buford, Cumming, and Peachtree City. Across all of these communities, our approach is the same: arrive with the right materials, the right certifications, and the expertise to handle whatever the project requires — from a straightforward replacement on a standard suburban home to a complex restoration on a multi-million-dollar estate where every specification matters.
Our Certifications: GAF, CertainTeed
The three manufacturer certifications that 1 Source Roofing holds — GAF Certified, CertainTeed Certified Preferred Contractor — are not marketing labels. They represent specific, verifiable standards that each manufacturer requires contractors to meet and maintain. Understanding what these credentials mean is directly relevant to any homeowner evaluating roofing contractors, because the certification status of your contractor determines which warranty products are available to you and what accountability standards apply to the installation of your roof.
At their core, all three certification programs require that contractors complete factory-sponsored training programs, maintain verified insurance coverage, and submit to customer satisfaction reviews. What this means for you as a homeowner is that the crew installing your roof has been trained to the manufacturer's specific installation requirements — not just to general industry standards — and that the manufacturer has a record of your contractor and can be held to account if installation-related warranty claims are denied inappropriately. An uncertified contractor cannot offer this accountability chain regardless of how many years they have been in business.
More practically, manufacturer certifications unlock warranty tiers that are simply not available from uncertified installers. GAF's enhanced warranty products, CertainTeed's SureStart Plus coverage's preferred warranty options all require that your contractor hold active certification status at the time of installation. For homeowners on high-value properties — where a roof represents a $30,000 to $80,000+ investment — choosing an uncertified installer to save money on labor while sacrificing warranty access is a risk that rarely makes financial sense on examination.
GAF Certified
GAF is North America's largest roofing manufacturer. GAF Certified contractors complete factory training, maintain insurance, and qualify homeowners for enhanced warranty products including wind and workmanship coverage upgrades.
CertainTeed Certified
CertainTeed's credentialing program requires demonstrated installation proficiency and customer satisfaction standards. Certified contractors qualify homeowners for SureStart Plus warranty coverage and extended material warranties.

1 Source Roofing and Restoration is a full-service roofing and property restoration contractor. Our service range was built deliberately to cover every scenario that an Atlanta-area homeowner is likely to face — from planned roof replacement at end of material life, to emergency storm damage restoration following a severe weather event, to complex insurance claim navigation when carriers underpay or delay. The single-contractor model matters to homeowners because it eliminates the coordination problems that arise when roofing damage triggers multiple types of property damage simultaneously.
When a hailstorm damages a roof, it rarely stops there. Water intrusion follows damaged shingles. Tree limbs that compromise roof sections require safe removal before repair can begin. In severe cases, structural water damage or even fire and smoke from electrical faults creates a situation where a homeowner needs multiple disciplines coordinated under a single point of accountability. 1 Source provides all of these services, which means one call, one point of contact, one scope of work, and one contractor responsible for the final result.
Our full service range covers roof repair for targeted damage, commercial roofing for business properties, water damage restoration, fire and smoke damage repair, tree removal, and the full insurance claims process from documentation through settlement. To learn more about how 1 Source approaches these differentiators, see our Why Choose 1 Source page.

Schedule Your Free Roof InspectionOur Commitment to Luxury Homes
Working on a home worth $1 million, $3 million, or more is not the same as working on a standard residential property — and not every contractor is equipped to navigate the difference. At 1 Source Roofing and Restoration, a significant portion of our project volume involves high-value properties where the requirements extend far beyond selecting a shingle color and scheduling a crew. Historic district compliance, HOA approval processes, premium material specifications, and the visual accountability that comes with working on homes where every detail is scrutinized — these are the considerations that define luxury home roofing.
In communities like Roswell's historic districts, projects that alter roofline appearance or material type require review by the Historic Preservation Commission. The HPC process involves documentation, material specifications, and in some cases, board review with public comment periods. We navigate this process regularly and can prepare the documentation package that most homeowners would not know how to assemble on their own. Similarly, the HOA approval workflows that govern many of Atlanta's planned communities — from Alpharetta's Windward and Country Club of the South to the master-planned neighborhoods of Johns Creek and Milton — require written material specifications, color approvals, and sometimes architectural committee presentations before work can begin. We have completed this process for dozens of properties and can guide homeowners through each step.
On the material side, luxury homes often require specifications that standard residential contractors do not routinely work with. DaVinci synthetic slate provides the aesthetic profile required by many historic overlay districts while meeting modern performance standards. Copper flashing provides superior longevity on lake-adjacent properties where aluminum corrodes under high-humidity conditions. CertainTeed's StainGuard Plus algae-resistant technology addresses the visual degradation that affects many Georgia homes due to the humid climate. GAF's Timberline HDZ architectural shingles provide class-leading wind resistance for properties in Gwinnett County's documented hail corridors. Our team works with these materials regularly and can specify the right product for each property's actual performance requirements.
Drone photography documentation is standard on all 1 Source projects. Before work begins, our drone captures the full roof system from angles that ground-level inspection cannot replicate. During installation, drone documentation records installation progress at key stages. At completion, final drone photography provides the homeowner with a permanent visual record of the completed work — useful for insurance records, future HOA documentation, and resale disclosures. This level of documentation is rare in the residential roofing industry and represents the standard of care that high-value properties deserve.
Insurance Claims: Your Advocate From First Call to Final Check
Navigating a property insurance claim for roofing damage is, for most homeowners, an unfamiliar and often frustrating experience. The insurance carrier's adjuster is a professional whose job is to assess damage accurately — but insurance companies are also under financial pressure to contain claim costs, and initial estimates frequently undervalue the scope of work required to restore a roof to pre-loss condition. Without an experienced contractor in the room during the adjuster's inspection, homeowners are at a significant informational disadvantage.
1 Source Roofing and Restoration provides full insurance claims support as a standard part of our storm damage and restoration services. Our process begins with our own damage assessment, documented with drone photography that captures every compromised area of the roof surface. We document granule loss patterns, impact points, lifted tabs, damaged flashing, and any secondary water intrusion — the kind of comprehensive damage record that supports a complete scope of loss rather than a minimal-replacement estimate. When the carrier's adjuster arrives on site, a 1 Source representative attends the inspection to walk through the documentation and ensure that every legitimate damage item is captured in the initial report.
When initial estimates fall short — as they frequently do on complex properties — we handle the supplement negotiation process. This involves submitting a detailed supplement request with supporting documentation: industry pricing references, material specifications, photos of the damage, and a line-by-line accounting of what the initial estimate missed. The supplement process requires persistence, documentation discipline, and knowledge of how to communicate with carrier claims departments — skills that most homeowners do not have and should not need to develop on their own. Our team has handled hundreds of supplement negotiations and understands how to move the process forward efficiently.
The result for homeowners is a claim settlement that reflects the actual cost of restoring their property correctly, with professional materials and a certified installation — rather than the minimum payout the carrier's initial offer represented.

Our Promise to Every Homeowner
After more than a decade in this market, we know that the contractors who earn long-term trust are the ones who treat the homeowner's property with the same care they would bring to their own. That means showing up on time. It means being transparent about what work is needed and what it will cost before any work begins. It means pulling required permits, following manufacturer installation requirements to the letter, and not cutting corners on underlayment, flashing, or ventilation in ways that are invisible to the homeowner but visible to an inspector five years later.
Our promise to every homeowner begins with communication. From the moment you call (404) 277-1377 to schedule an inspection, you will deal with real people who respond within 24 hours. We provide written, detailed scopes of work — not verbal quotes that leave room for interpretation. Our project documentation covers every phase of the work. When a project is complete, you receive a full documentation package including photos, material receipts, and warranty registration information so that your records are complete from day one.
Our promise extends to standing behind the work we install. Workmanship warranty coverage means that if an installation issue causes a problem after the project is complete, we address it — not argue about it. Our reputation in this market has been built one project at a time over more than ten years, and we protect it by treating every home with the level of care that the homeowner's investment deserves. We believe that the best measure of a roofing contractor is not the number of roofs installed, but the number of homeowners who call us back when the next project comes up — and the number who recommend us to their neighbors without hesitation.

Manufacturer certifications — GAF, CertainTeed — require installation teams to complete factory training programs, maintain verified insurance coverage, and meet quality standards that independent contractors are never required to meet. More importantly, certified contractors can offer manufacturer-backed warranty upgrades that uncertified installers simply cannot provide, regardless of how long they have been in business.
