For homeowners in Lithia Springs, local conditions matter. Lithia Springs is a Douglas County community along the I-20 corridor east of Douglasville.

Architectural shingles (also called dimensional or laminate shingles) are the current standard for quality residential roofing in Georgia. Unlike older flat 3-tab shingles, architectural shingles have a layered laminate construction that creates depth and shadow lines β giving your roof the appearance of heavier materials like wood shake or natural slate at a fraction of the cost. More importantly, the thicker construction provides better wind resistance (130+ mph ratings on premium lines), improved granule retention, and longer service life.
