A historic railroad town
Downtown Kennesaw has four historic districts on the National Register, all listed in 1980, around the depot and Main, Cherokee and Summers Streets. On older homes, we match the look of the existing roof.

Kennesaw roofing FAQs
My Kennesaw home was built in the 1990s or 2000s. Is it time for a new roof?
It may be, if it’s still the original roof. A free inspection shows its condition and whether a repair or a replacement makes more sense.
A tree or big limb hit my roof. What should I do first?
Get everyone out of the rooms under the damage, then call 404-474-4222, any time. We tarp the opening, photograph everything for your insurance claim and schedule the repair.
My address says Kennesaw, but I'm not in the city. Do you still serve me?
Yes. Many homes with a Kennesaw address are in unincorporated Cobb, outside the city. We work across the whole area.
Do you serve all of Kennesaw?
Yes, from downtown and Legacy Park to Kennesaw-area neighborhoods in unincorporated Cobb, plus nearby Acworth, Marietta and Woodstock.
