Lithonia roofing FAQs
My house in Lithonia is close to 100 years old. Can you match the look of the old roof?
Yes. On older homes, we match the look of the existing roof and talk through material choices with you before work starts.
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.
