Buford, Georgia’s humid subtropical climate, influenced by nearby Lake Lanier, sees about 50 inches of rain, roughly 2 inches of snow, average winds near 8 to 10 mph, and about 215 sunny days annually, so roofs face accelerated shingle UV degradation, moisture, algae and flashings stress, shortening asphalt roof life unless ventilation, flashing and gutters are well maintained. What is the most common cause of roof damage in Buford, Georgia?

In Buford, Georgia, the best time to replace a roof is during mild, drier mid-October through November and late March through May, avoiding hot, humid summers and late-summer storms influenced by nearby Lake Lanier and northern Gwinnett County microclimate, for better shingle adhesion and fewer rain delays. Insurance & Storms
How common are storm-related roof claims in Buford, Georgia?
Storm-related roof claims in Buford, Georgia are relatively common, thanks to frequent summer thunderstorms, occasional hail, and remnants of tropical systems. Buford’s tree-lined neighborhoods and proximity to Lake Lanier increase wind and branch damage, causing claim spikes after major storms. Precise rates vary by season and insurer. What natural disasters in Buford, Georgia cause the most roof replacements?
In Buford, Georgia near Lake Lanier the biggest causes of roof replacements are severe thunderstorm hail and straight-line winds, tornado damage, and tree impacts after heavy rains.
