Norcross was chartered in 1870 as a railroad town on the line north of Atlanta and is named for Jonathan Norcross, a former Atlanta mayor. Its downtown is a National Register historic district, but most of its homes went up much later: about half were built between 1980 and 1999. Emergency Roofing Solutions inspects, tarps, repairs and replaces roofs across Norcross and the Norcross-area neighborhoods around it, and a live person answers 24/7.

A new roof inside Norcross’s city limits. We photographed it by drone as our crew finished in April 2024. We’ve also completed work on Beaver Falls Drive in the city.
What Norcross homeowners said
“[Emergency] Roofing Solutions was fantastic from the first time they came to my front door.”

About half the homes in the city were built between 1980 and 1999, and about a third in the 1980s alone. Many of those homes are 27 to 46 years old and on their second or third roof.
The Norcross Historic District was listed on the National Register in 1980. On older homes downtown, we match the look of the existing roof.
Norcross has been a Tree City USA for 22 straight years, and the city says trees cover about 38% of it. Mature trees over older homes mean more limbs and debris on the roof after a storm.
About 40% of the homes in the city are rented. We work with homeowners, landlords and property managers and send a photo report of what we found.
From National Weather Service surveys, NOAA storm records and local news.
An early-morning storm damaged trees and city power equipment, and more than 700 Norcross Power customers lost power until 9:11 a.m.
The city warned of more than a quarter inch of ice and strong winds that could bring down trees and power lines, put Norcross Power and Public Works crews on standby and closed city facilities on January 26.
Around 6 p.m., a tree fell on two cars on Jimmy Carter Boulevard in the Norcross area.
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. On older homes, we match the look of the original roof.
Nearby, we also work in Peachtree Corners, Doraville, Lilburn, Duluth and Dunwoody. See all areas we serve.

It may be. Many 1980s homes are on their second roof, and some of those are near the end of their life too. A free inspection shows the roof’s condition and whether a repair or a replacement makes more sense.
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.
Yes. The Norcross mailing area is much bigger than the city and takes in Peachtree Corners and unincorporated Gwinnett around Jimmy Carter Boulevard and Indian Trail. We work across all of it.

Workers were fast and efficient. They did an excellent job in such a short time. I will highly recommend them in the future to anyone who has roofing needs. And Ricky was most helpful as well.

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
