Who You're Hiring

A licensed roof, not just a roofer.

Why we built this company differently.

Most roofing companies in Georgia aren't required to hold a contractor's license. We decided to build Vest Construction differently. The company is owned by a licensed Professional Engineer, Stephan Tremblay, P.E., and we're licensed as a General Contractor in the State of Georgia. When you call us, you're not getting a salesperson trying to sell you a roof. You're getting trained professionals who inspect your home, document what they find, and develop the right solution for your property.

What the licenses actually mean.

Residential license · RLCO003364

We can legally contract, permit, and build residential structural work, not just surface roofing.

General contractor license · GCCO006428

A project that grows past the shingles doesn't need a second company brought in.

Engineer-owned standards

Load paths, framing, ventilation, and attachment are things we look at, because that's the standard our owner built this company on.

What's Included

Your roof is a system, not just shingles.

Every one of these goes on your roof. You'll only ever see the shingles. Your estimate should list them all.

  • Tear-off to the deck.
  • Decking replaced where it's bad, photographed and documented.
  • Ice-and-water protection at eaves and valleys.
  • Synthetic underlayment.
  • Purpose-made starter strip.
  • Architectural or metal roof system, matched components.
  • Hip and ridge cap.
  • Balanced attic ventilation.

Built for the Complicated Ones

From a standard shingle roof to the one nobody else wants to touch.

Our team has built at commercial and high-rise scale. That's why complex roofs don't scare us: steep pitches, multiple valleys, and specialty materials. And it's why a simple repair gets the same attention.

The Inspection

What we check.

  • The roof surface and all flashing details.
  • The attic and the underside of the deck.
  • Penetrations, pipe boots, and skylights.
  • Valleys and roof-to-wall transitions.
  • Attic ventilation, intake and exhaust.
  • Gutters, drip edge, and the roof edge.

Before You Sign

How to compare roof quotes.

What's in an honest estimate

  1. 1Who inspected the roof, and exactly what they looked at.
  2. 2The insurance, credentials, and responsibility standing behind the work.
  3. 3A documented scope: the work, the materials, and exactly what you're paying for. Never a single vague number.

If a quote you're holding doesn't have those three things, that's worth knowing before you sign it.

We price your roof line by line on site with the Vest Estimator Tool. You get it in writing before we leave.

Local and Family-Owned

We live here too.

Vest Construction is family-owned and based in Kennesaw, building across metro Atlanta for nearly 20 years. A roof should last decades, and so should the company that put it on. Our name is on the yard sign, and we'll be here long after the job is done.

Common Questions

Straight answers.

How long does a roof replacement take?+

Most residential roofs are torn off and re-roofed in a single day. Larger or steeper roofs, and complex rooflines, can run two to three days.

What happens if you find rotten decking?+

We photograph it, show you, and replace it. Decking is priced per sheet in your written proposal, so there is no surprise number at the end.

Do I need to be home?+

No. Many homeowners are at work during the install. We walk the finished roof with you afterward.

Can you roof over my existing shingles?+

We tear off. Layering hides bad decking, shortens the life of the new shingles, adds weight to the framing, and voids most manufacturer warranties.

How soon can you get me an estimate?+

Call (770) 525-7874 and we will schedule the soonest available inspection. In most cases the itemized estimate is in your hands the same visit.

What does "engineer-owned" mean for my roof?+

Vest is owned by Stephan Tremblay, a licensed Professional Engineer. His standards shape how we inspect, document, and build every roof.

Can you give me a second opinion on another company's quote?+

Yes. We'll inspect the roof and give you our own documented findings and itemized estimate to compare.

Do you work with insurance claims?+

Yes. We document storm damage with photos and work with your insurance company. Your insurer decides coverage.

What roofing materials do you install?+

Architectural shingle, standing seam and other metal, copper, cedar and wood, clay tile, and solar.

Vest is the Best.

Engineer-owned. Licensed GC. Local and family-owned for nearly 20 years. A new roof should be built to last, and so should the company behind it.
