Residential Roofing in Takoma Park
Most of Takoma Park's housing is residential, and most of it is old. We work on bungalows, foursquares, Victorians, and mid-century ranches, each with its own roof profile. Homeowners here care about matching the original character of the house, and they want a roofer who will not cut corners on the parts you cannot see. We do a lot of roof replacement and leak repair for families who plan to stay in the home for years, not flip it. That means we install the ice and water shield, the new flashing, and the ridge vent even when it is not the cheapest option. It is the right way to do it.
- Full roof replacement — We tear off the old roof, inspect the decking, and install new underlayment, ice and water shield, and architectural shingles. On Takoma Park's older homes, we often replace rotten sheathing and rebuild flashing at the same time. Most jobs take two to three days.
- Roof leak repair — Leaks in Takoma Park usually come from flashing, not the shingle field. We trace the entry point with a moisture meter, repair the flashing or penetration, and water-test the area. Most repairs are done in one visit, and we document everything with photos.
- Storm damage repair — After a storm, we tarp any open roof the same day and return for permanent repairs. We replace damaged shingles, flashing, and underlayment, and we photograph everything for your insurance claim. We keep emergency tarps on every truck.
- Roof inspection and maintenance — A yearly inspection catches small problems before they become leaks. We check the flashing, ridge vent, drip edge, and attic ventilation, and we clear debris from valleys and gutters. It is the cheapest way to extend the life of a Takoma Park roof.
