Frequently Asked Questions
We offer a broad selection of superior-quality roofing options from leading producers. If we wouldn’t install it on our home, you can rest assured we won’t install it on yours. We can install asphalt shingle roofing, cedar roofing, metal roofing, flat roofing, and solar roofing.
It depends on the type of material and how well you adhere to maintenance requirements and repairs. In general, most asphalt roofs will last 20 to 30 years. Wood shakes can last 30 years, fiber cement shingles have a lifespan of 25 years, and slate roofs can last well over 100 years.
Because there’s a wide range of estimated lifespans, it’s best not to focus on age but on your roof’s condition when deciding when to replace it. If your roof has suffered extensive damage due to hail, wind, ice, etc., it’s usually the right time to replace it.
Similarly, if you have problems with wood rot, termites, etc., or if the roof requires increasingly frequent and costly repairs to stop leaks, a replacement can be a cost-effective solution.
The primary consideration is durability; you want a roof that will last in our climate and the weather inherent to DC, Maryland, and Virginia. You’ll also want to consider aesthetic appeal and energy efficiency. It’s important to consider the cost and determine which options balance these considerations.
Specific maintenance will vary based on the material. However, there are some universal maintenance steps for all roofs. You’ll want to ensure all gutters and drainage systems are properly secured and debris-free. It’s also imperative to restrict and clean up any moss or algae growth, trim nearby trees regularly, and avoid walking on the roof for any reason other than maintenance.
It’s also vital to promptly schedule repairs when shingles or slates loosen or fall away or when the roof is damaged by hail or windborne debris. For good measure, it’s a good idea to have a professional roofing expert inspect your roof every three to five years.
