About half of Douglasville’s homes went up between 1980 and 1999, and many of those roofs are on their second round of wear. Add tall pines and frequent windstorms, and roofs here take a beating. Emergency Roofing Solutions inspects, tarps, repairs and replaces roofs across Douglasville, and a live person answers 24/7.

Real jobs from our crews, documented in our job files.

Ceiling stains led us into the attic and then to the roof, where old vent pipe boots had been smeared with sealant instead of replaced. That kind of patch is one of the most common leak sources we find.

We walked every slope and photographed the shingles, vents and flashing so the homeowner had a clear record of the roof’s condition.

51% of Douglasville homes were built between 1980 and 1999, and another 20% are older. Many have been reroofed once already. We check the decking and flashing, not just the shingles, before recommending a repair or a replacement.
Falling trees cause much of the storm damage we see here. In December 2024 a tree destroyed a home on Fairburn Road, and in June 2025 trees fell on homes near Cobblestone Court and Indian Creek Drive.
In our experience, rubber pipe boots often dry out and crack after 10 to 15 years. The quick fix is a smear of sealant, and it rarely lasts. We replace the boot so the leak stops for good.
About half of Douglasville homes are rented, and communities like The Villages at Brookmont and Chapel Hills have HOAs. We work with landlords, property managers and HOA boards and send a photo report.
From National Weather Service surveys, NOAA storm records and local news.
NOAA logged nine wind-damage reports across Douglas County, with trees down near Napa Valley Drive and Brewer Road and on Pool Road. Two days later we were on Vogue Drive tracing a roof leak.
A tree fell on a home near Cobblestone Court and Limestone Lane, and another damaged the corner of a home near Indian Creek Drive. That week our crews inspected roofs on Bright Star Road, Blake Drive and Daniell Springs Drive.
Ten wind-damage reports came in across the county, including trees on homes near Bakers Bridge Road and Cedar Mountain Road. Within the week we were inspecting roofs on Oak Lane and Fairburn Road.
The National Weather Service confirmed an EF1 tornado near Chapel Hill. Before dawn, a tree fell on a home on Fairburn Road, made it a total loss and sent two family members to the hospital.
We check every slope, the flashing, vents and gutters, and the attic if you have a leak. You get clear photos of what we found, good or bad.
We tell you whether you need a repair or a replacement, and why, with a line-item estimate. If it is storm damage, we document it for your insurance company and can meet your adjuster on site.
Our crew does the work, protects your landscaping, cleans up the nails and debris, and walks the finished roof with you. For rentals, we can coordinate access with your tenant and send you the photos.
Nearby, we also work in Villa Rica, Dallas, Mableton, Marietta and Atlanta. See all areas we serve.

We can, but sealant over a cracked pipe boot usually fails within a season or two. Replacing the boot costs little more and fixes the actual problem.
Often, yes. Architectural shingles typically last about 25 to 30 years, and many Douglasville homes from that era are on their original or second roof. Our free inspection will tell you whether a repair buys you real time.
Get everyone out of the rooms under the damage and call 404-474-4222, day or night. We tarp the roof to stop more water getting in, photograph the damage for your insurance company, then plan the repair.
Yes. We schedule around your tenants, document the work with photos and send you the report.

Jabari Bulger came to my door after seeing that my roof was seriously in need of replacement. He walked me through the process with insurance and the roof replacement seamlessly. I'm very happy with my choice to use Emergency Roofing Solutions.
Jabari was knowledgeable, friendly, honest, and very helpful during the entire process.
I highly recommend ERS. Jabari and his crew were professional and were attentive to our needs. I am especially grateful because this was our first roof replacement, and he guided us through the - at times - arduous process. His colleague John was very courteous and reassuring on the build date. Go with ERS!
I hired Emergency Roofing Solutions after learning my roof, which had been updated before I bought the house, was missing proper ventilation. I had been noticing issues early on, especially in the summer, condensation around my HVAC unit, poor airflow, and my system working much harder than it should to keep the house cool. Cas…
Ricky Downs is wonderful and I will recommend him to all my family and friends
