Emergency roof leak repair
Active water coming in now
Most metro Atlanta leaks trace back to a storm that did not look like it caused damage. The shingles are still there, the roof looks fine from the driveway, and water is getting in anyway. Finding where is the job.
Population about 18,957.
Fayetteville sits in the metro Atlanta hail and wind corridor. Spring storm season here does two kinds of damage, and only one of them is obvious. Straight-line wind lifts shingle tabs, breaks the seal strip underneath, and drops them back down looking untouched — the roof then leaks in the next storm from a spot that shows nothing from the ground. Hail does the other kind, bruising the mat under the granules so the shingle fails months later. Housing stock across Fayette County skews newer and denser than most of the state, which means a lot of architectural asphalt in the 10-to-20-year band where the seal strip is past its best but the roof is nowhere near replacement.
