Alpharetta Premium Roofing provides professional asphalt shingle roofs in Alpharetta, GA for residential and commercial properties across north Fulton County. Architectural laminate is the right covering for almost every steep roof in this city, and how it is fastened ought to change with the pitch. Most quotes never mention that, and most crews install the same way at four in twelve as they do at fourteen.
The code sets the bottom of the range. Asphalt shingles may not be used below two in twelve at all, and from two in twelve up to four in twelve the residential code requires a double underlayment application. In Alpharetta that governs porch roofs, bay caps and additions far more often than it governs a main roof. Alpharetta has a great many of both.
The top of the range is where north Fulton actually lives, and there the manufacturer rather than the code is in charge. Above twenty-one in twelve, which covers steep dormer cheeks, mansard faces and some entry towers here, the printed instructions call for six fasteners and six spots of ASTM D4586 asphalt roof cement per shingle, applied by hand. Six nails and six cement spots per shingle is slow, deliberate work, and it is not optional.
There is a related problem well short of that. Sealant strips bond with heat and with gravity, and gravity is working against a steep plane the whole time. A north-facing twelve in twelve laid in November can sit unbonded through the winter, which is precisely the season the wind turns up. We hand-seal those planes rather than hope, and we say so on the estimate. A shingle that never bonded looks identical to one that did.
We also decline the two things people most often ask for on steep shingle. We will not lay new shingles over old on anything above nine in twelve, because a second layer means longer fasteners into a deck we can no longer inspect, on a plane nobody can stand on to check. And we will not sell an expensive designer profile for a plane that cannot be seen from any road.
Everything else should be ordinary, and is. Synthetic underlayment, self-adhered membrane in valleys and along eaves, starter course at rakes as well as eaves, four to six nails a shingle depending on the plane. The proposal names the products and the fastening pattern for each plane with its measured pitch printed next to it. Anything unusual gets flagged before it is ordered rather than after it is on the roof.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — roof bracket scaffolds built to the plane, ridge-hooked crawling boards, rafter-anchored personal fall arrest points, hand-sealed courses above twenty-one in twelve, six-nail fastening with ASTM D4586 cement spots, double underlayment below four in twelve — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Alpharetta and nearby communities including Roswell, Johns Creek, Milton, Sandy Springs.

Materials, equipment and how we do asphalt shingle roofs
The difference between asphalt shingle roofs that lasts and asphalt shingle roofs that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with roof bracket scaffolds built to the plane, ridge-hooked crawling boards, rafter-anchored personal fall arrest points, hand-sealed courses above twenty-one in twelve, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Alpharetta job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in north Fulton County means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
