Why We Recommend Asphalt: Built for Georgia, Backed by Integrity
Choosing a new roof shouldn’t feel like a gamble — it should feel like peace of mind. At Bravo Company Roofing, we believe every homeowner deserves clear, honest answers — not upsells or industry jargon. While some may consider trendier options, we specialize in architectural asphalt roofing systems designed for long-term value, performance, and affordability in Georgia’s climate. Because a roof isn’t just about materials — it’s about protecting your home, your family, and your future.
Material Overview – What Bravo Company Offers
We install high-performance roofing systems built for Georgia’s climate and your peace of mind.
Asphalt Shingles: We use IKO ROOFPRO-certified asphalt systems known for strong wind resistance, long-term durability, and aesthetic flexibility. All of our roofing systems are installed by certified crews who focus on precision and integrity — no shortcuts, ever.
Durability and Lifespan
Asphalt roofs typically last 20–30 years when installed correctly, with routine maintenance. They stand up well to seasonal shifts and moderate storm activity.
Bravo’s perspective: Asphalt may be a smart option whether you’re prepping to sell in a few years or planning to stay long-term. With proper care, it offers both value and resilience.
Cost Comparison — Short-Term vs Long-Term Investment
Asphalt:
- Lower upfront cost
- Great return on investment
- Budget-friendly for quick installs or rental properties
At Bravo, we help you calculate your real lifetime value — not just the price today. We align our recommendations with your financial goals and timeline, not what makes us more money.
Energy Efficiency and Environmental Impact
While asphalt shingles may absorb more heat than some premium materials, reflective options like IKO’s Cool Color series can significantly improve energy performance. These shingles can be paired with Bravo’s high-performance ventilation systems to manage attic heat and improve comfort.
Bravo’s guidance: We educate every client on energy efficiency, rebates, and local recycling programs. If you’re aiming for a greener footprint or lower utility bills, we’ll help you find the right combination of materials and airflow enhancements.
Aesthetic and Neighborhood Fit
Asphalt offers a wide variety of colors, textures, and designs — making it ideal for matching existing home styles or complying with HOA preferences.
Bravo’s approach: We provide visual renderings during design consultations, so you can see what your new asphalt roof will look like before making a choice.
Noise, Maintenance & Weather Performance
Asphalt vulnerabilities:
- Shingles can loosen, curl, or lose granules after heavy wind or hail
- Tree debris can wear down exposed areas if not removed regularly
No matter the material, Bravo’s team ensures optimal underlayment, flashing, and attic ventilation — crucial factors that many contractors skip but make all the difference in roof performance and lifespan.

Hear From Our Satisfied Customers
See what Atlanta homeowners are saying about their roof replacement experience with Team Bravo:
Communication at first was rocky but I was thoroughly communicated with by the owner and my project manager throughout after a bit.
They also were able to renegotiate with my insurance on my behalf to secure an entire new roof after they had only offered half which I'm grateful for.
Of note; I was able to pick an upgraded shingle type and the color to better withstand the storms in the future which was easier then I had thought would be.
It looks great and I'm happy with having gone with them.
My husband and I were especially impressed by how genuinely committed they were to helping us and ensuring the job was done right. The team went above and beyond to accommodate our needs and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. The workers who came to fix our roof were not only efficient but also left the area spotless, which we deeply appreciated.
Bravo Roofing delivered excellent service, and their attention to detail and customer care made all the difference. If you’re looking for a company that truly values its customers and takes pride in their work, look no further. We highly recommend them!
Additionally we had them install gutters all around the house. Very pleased with the results.
The most important thing I will say is the communication with them was spot on. Robbie & Brian kept me informed during the whole process, even while I was out of town.
Bravo Company Roofing Review
Jonathan from Bravo Company Roofing came to my house to see if I might need a new roof. Using his UAV, he inspected my roof looking for any type of hail or wind damage. After the inspection, he showed me pictures of damage to my roof. The next step was to have my insurance inspector to come out and determine if the damage suggested a replacement was needed. Jonathan kept me updated via phone on all activity and dates to meet my schedule.
My insurance inspector came out with Jonathan and did determine my roof had enough damage that it needed replacement. Jonathan went through all the steps that would follow to replace my roof. The most important was understanding the contract. Jonathan went over all the details and explain fully so both my wife and I understood the process.
On a date of my choosing, we set up a time to schedule the roof replacement. Jonathan went over what I needed to do before the installation crew came out so no damage would occur to my screens or items in the yard. Jonathan was very patient with us as we picked out a color of shingle we wanted on the roof. I made a few upgrades that I paid extra for to have a roof that will last longer.
Due to the weather, we had to postpone our installation only one day. The crew showed up about 7am and started to work. The meticulously put down plastic tarps to catch the debris as they removed the old shingles and underlaying.
After completing the new roof, they went around and cleaned up the area of nails and debris. I was told they may not get everything, so be sure to make my own inspection. I inspected the yard back and front for three days finding bits and pieces that escaped the cleanup. All in all the crew did a fantastic job! I was very pleased to sign over the last check for the job completion. My roof is awesome and makes my house stand out even more now. I can not thank Jonathan enough for his detailed explanation of the whole process and his excellent communication from start to finish.
If you ever need a new roof, I highly recommend Bravo Company Roofing! Not only will you be pleased with the excellent work they do for your replacement roof, but also the professionalism of how they manage their company and quality of service they provide the customer!
Sincerely,
Steven and Frances Daigle
