Mableton HDZ Protection Upgrade
This roof replacement in Mableton, GA restored full protection to the home using GAF Timberline HDZ architectural shingles in Charcoal. The project improved curb appeal, increased weather resistance, and ensured the homeowner received a durable, manufacturer-backed roofing system built for local climate conditions.
Project Overview
The homeowner moved forward with a full roof replacement after an inspection confirmed the existing roofing system had reached the end of its service life. Aging materials and general wear left the home vulnerable to leaks and storm-related damage. Given Mableton’s exposure to frequent rain and seasonal weather, a full replacement was recommended to restore long-term protection, improve performance, and bring the roof up to current installation standards.
Results
The newly installed roofing system delivered immediate improvements in protection, appearance, and overall durability. GAF Timberline HDZ shingles provided enhanced wind resistance, consistent coverage, and long-term performance. The Charcoal color refreshed the home’s exterior with a clean, modern look. Installed to manufacturer specifications, the homeowner now benefits from a secure roofing system designed to withstand future weather events and backed by strong product warranties.
