About - Award Roofing

Award Roofing was started in May of 1965 to fill a need in the Atlanta area for a truly professional, high quality residential service. At that time there were 2 roofing companies in Atlanta that specialized in Commercial Roofing work. Only one of these remains today. It does not do residential work. “Too much trouble dealing with homeowners,” it’s Owner states. In 1964 we “shopped” every roofing company or individual who was listed in the yellow pages. We were not impressed by anyone we contacted and met and, in fact, not one of them is in business today.

The Founder of our company, Richard Dugan, was born and raised in Vermont by a family of “Yankee Craftsmen” who for three generations had served the roofing industry in New England under precise roofing standards that New England winters demand. Roofing contractors in that area always took extra measures because a defective installation would cause a leak with up to 3 or 4 feet of snow on the roof and would be impossible to fix. “We had to do it right the first time”, Mr. Dugan states. “We had no choice. In these small New England towns if a roofing contractor had a leak he was out of business. And besides, we enjoyed our work and took a lot of pride in our finished product, and in our customer relations too. Our customers were our friends and still are today.”

In May of 1965, we installed our first roof in Atlanta and issued an unconditional 20 year labor and material guarantee on that job. Since that time, we have installed over 10,000 roofs in the Atlanta area and provide a 15 year labor guarantee. We don’t have to. Most roofers give a 1-2 year labor guarantee (is that how long they expect their labor to hold up?) and the shingle maker issues a pro-rated warranty – subject to the use of certain installation techniques – (Read the fine print!) If the workers don’t follow these instructions, the material guarantee is worthless! And the homeowner is on the hook if a problem develops. Award Roofing Company employs installation techniques that

exceed every shingle manufacturer’s requirements. In fact, our installation specifications set the standards by which all other roofers are compared. No other roofer will match our standards. We guarantee that. Our roofs are installed to the same specifications as they are in Vermont using the same techniques and materials and every job in is supervised by a Project Manager who inspects every aspect of the work as it is being done to protect our company and it’s reputation as well as the homeowner’s investment.

"Initially our older home was completely re-roofed by Award Roofing. Several repairs have been made over the years because of tree branches. Every time Award was called, they responded!! Very, very good help. I would hire them again should I need a new roof."
