Commercial General Contractor in Norcross, GA.

Norcross runs on two corridors and they generate two different kinds of work. Jimmy Carter Boulevard is the retail and restaurant spine — strip centers, international grocery stores, and independent restaurants packed into 1970s and 1980s shopping centers, a lot of them due for roof work that's been deferred for years. Peachtree Industrial Boulevard (PIB) and the streets that feed off it — Beaver Ruin Road, Jimmy Carter near the I-85 interchange, Boggs Road — are where the warehouse and flex-industrial building stock sits: distribution buildings, contractor yards, light manufacturing, self-storage, all with large low-slope roofs.

Historic downtown Norcross is its own pocket — brick storefronts around the square, smaller footprints, more zoning and design-review scrutiny on anything visible from the street. We also see work along the I-85 frontage near the Jimmy Carter Boulevard and Beaver Ruin Road exits, where logistics and last-mile distribution tenants keep turning over space and generating tenant improvement calls. We run all of it out of our Atlanta office on Chamblee Dunwoody Road, about 25 minutes down PIB.

The single biggest category of work in Norcross is large-format flat roofing — replacement and recover on warehouse, flex, and distribution buildings where the roof can run 50,000 square feet or more. Those roofs get sold a patch job more often than an honest re-roof, because a lot of contractors don't want to price the real scope. We do TPO and EPDM single-ply systems sized for that building stock, and we'll tell an owner straight when a recover won't hold and a tear-off is the actual fix.

On the general contracting side, it's tenant improvement work in the flex and warehouse buildings — office build-outs inside a warehouse shell, demising walls for a new tenant, loading dock and dock door modifications, the electrical and MEP that comes with a space changing hands. Along Jimmy Carter Boulevard it's restaurant and retail build-outs, often for owner-operators fitting out a shell space in a strip center that's changed hands multiple times. Roof condition assessments are also a steady request — buyers and lenders want a real inspection before they close on a Norcross flex or warehouse property, not a drive-by.

Most of Norcross is inside the city limits, so permitting runs through the City of Norcross rather than unincorporated Gwinnett County — that matters for zoning, signage, and anything in the downtown design-review overlay. Some of the flex and industrial parcels along PIB and the I-85 frontage sit in unincorporated Gwinnett, which means Gwinnett County Planning and Development instead. We check which jurisdiction a property falls in before we price a job, because the plan review timeline and inspection requirements aren't the same.

We're the GC on everything except roofing — we run vetted subs on framing, MEP, and finish trades, with a principal on the job, not just a project manager checking in by phone. Roofing is the one trade we self-perform with our own crews, and every roofing estimate is written in-house by a Haag-certified reviewer instead of farmed out to an estimator. On a multi-tenant strip center or warehouse park, that means one point of contact for a property manager instead of chasing down separate contractors for the roof and the build-out.

Gwinnett County sits squarely in the path of the spring and summer hail line that moves through metro Atlanta, and the flat roofs that dominate Norcross's warehouse and retail stock show hail and wind damage differently than a residential shingle roof — it's easy for an adjuster's estimate to miss membrane damage, flashing, or drainage issues that only show up once someone's actually up on the roof. That's exactly the gap our Haag-certified, Xactimate-certified estimating closes: we write the claim scope in the same software the carrier uses, line by line, and can show exactly which items are missing or underpriced instead of arguing in general terms.

Once your claim is approved, we guarantee you get the full value of it. Our in-house Xactimate staff writes every item of justified, claimable damage into the scope — including what carriers routinely miss, like code-required upgrades or the labor and material costs that only surface once a roof is opened up. If the approved estimate comes in short, we document the gap and pursue the supplement. What the policy actually covers is between the property owner and the carrier — we're not a public adjuster and don't negotiate the claim on your behalf. We write the scope, document the damage, and build the repair, because the same company that wrote the estimate is the one holding the GC license.
