What Affects Rates in Alpharetta
- Forsyth County recorded 11 thunderstorm wind events since 2019, with the July 2023 event producing measured gusts to 83 mph and significant shingle loss across Alpharetta's northern subdivisions.
- Two hail events logged in Forsyth County over the last five years, both producing minor shingle bruising rather than catastrophic damage, but enough to justify replacement when combined with age.
- One tropical storm event reached Forsyth County in the last five years, bringing sustained wind and saturating rainfall that exposed existing flashing failures and underlayment gaps.
- Forsyth County's median home was built in 2003, meaning many original roofs are approaching the 20-year replacement threshold even without storm damage.
- Many Alpharetta subdivisions feature two-story homes with complex rooflines and 8/12 to 10/12 pitches, which increase labor costs and require additional fall protection measures during replacement.
