Golden Pledge Roof | Marietta
This roof replacement in Marietta, GA restored full protection to the home using GAF Timberline HDZ shingles in Charcoal. The project improved weather resistance, reinforced critical leak-prone areas, and provided the homeowner with a durable, manufacturer-backed roofing system designed for long-term performance.
Project Overview
Following age-related wear and declining roof performance, the homeowner noticed concerns related to aging shingles, vulnerable flashing areas, and underlying decking conditions. An inspection confirmed the need for a full roof replacement, along with upgraded leak protection, flashing improvements, and ventilation enhancements. The existing roofing system no longer provided dependable defense against seasonal rain and storms, prompting the need for a comprehensive and long-lasting solution.
Results
The new roofing system delivered immediate improvements in protection, durability, and overall performance. GAF Timberline HDZ shingles provided consistent coverage and enhanced wind resistance, while advanced leak barriers were installed at valleys, penetrations, chimneys, and wall intersections. New flashing systems were installed at walls and chimneys to ensure proper water management, and ridge ventilation was upgraded with a Cobra III ridge vent system to promote balanced airflow. Any deteriorated decking was replaced as needed to restore structural integrity. With installation completed to manufacturer and code standards, the home now has a secure roofing system built to perform through future storms.
