A Roofing Contractor With 90 Years of Experience

Not every contractor can take on a project of the scope that Gainesville, GA, homeowners Kenneth and Jennifer had in mind — but Housworth Construction is not every contractor. The Suwanee-based exterior remodeling company, which has been serving North Georgia and Greater Atlanta since 1929, was built for exactly this kind of challenge. The team arrived with a plan covering five distinct trades: a custom decking system, a natural stone retaining wall, a hand-crafted outdoor fireplace, detailed stone masonry, and a complete roof system replacement. What could have been a coordination headache across multiple crews became a seamless build under one roof, guided by the kind of institutional knowledge that only comes from nearly a century of Georgia construction.

The materials Housworth brought to Kenneth and Jennifer's property were chosen to perform as hard as the craftspeople installing them. Partnering with trusted manufacturers including Owens Corning, the company held every component of the build to the same standard — one designed to stand up to the heat, humidity, and storm cycles that North Georgia delivers year after year. The stone retaining wall anchors the landscape with permanence; the outdoor fireplace extends the living season well past summer; the deck offers a platform built for decades of use, and the new roof ties the entire exterior together with clean lines and proven protection. Taken together, the finished project is less a collection of improvements and more a complete reimagining of what the home's exterior can be.

Kenneth and Jennifer's Gainesville home now stands as a showcase for what Housworth Construction delivers across Hall County and the communities surrounding it, from Suwanee and Lawrenceville to Duluth, Buford, Flowery Branch, and Greater Atlanta.

When Jennifer and Ken decided it was time to upgrade their backyard, they weren’t looking for a simple deck addition; they wanted a complete outdoor living experience. They contacted Housworth Construction to design a custom outdoor oasis that would feel like a natural extension of their home. Inspired by Housworth Construction’s expertise in outdoor remodeling, the project included a brand-new Brazilian hardwood deck, elegant stone masonry, retaining walls, and a custom outdoor fireplace that instantly became the centerpiece of the backyard.

Every detail of the remodel was designed with luxury and functionality in mind. The rich Brazilian wood decking provided the high-end appearance and durability Jennifer and Ken wanted, while the tongue-and-groove ceiling and covered roofing system created a warm, inviting atmosphere. Housworth Construction also installed a beautiful new sliding door system that seamlessly connected the interior living space with the outdoor entertainment area. The handcrafted stone fireplace adds both visual impact and cozy functionality, making the deck perfect for relaxing evenings or entertaining guests throughout the year. Surrounded by custom stone retaining walls and detailed masonry work, the completed project showcases the craftsmanship and thoughtful design that Housworth Construction brings to every outdoor remodel. 

Thomas, a homeowner in Gainesville, GA, recently turned to Housworth Construction after noticing a troublesome roof leak and ongoing runoff issues around his home. From the very beginning, Thomas had a great experience working with Richard, the owner, who took the time to understand the problems and explain the best solution. Richard recommended repairing the roof leak, improving the drainage system, and making a few custom upgrades to better protect the home from future water damage.

Once the project began, Ashton and the installation team got to work repairing the roof leak and replacing the home's gutters and downspouts. One of the biggest improvements involved adding piping that directed the second-floor downspouts directly into the first-floor gutter system. This created a much more efficient drainage path and prevented water from pouring directly onto the lower roof and landscaping.

The team also installed a brand-new downspout along the side of the home to help eliminate runoff that had been causing problems for Thomas. One of the most impressive parts of the project was the custom downspout design near a decorative rock feature. Ashton carefully curved the new downspout around the rock, creating a finished look that blended perfectly with the home while still functioning exactly as needed. Thomas was extremely pleased with both the craftsmanship and professionalism of the Housworth Construction team.
