Need a New Roof in Washington, DC?
Flat roof that ponds and leaks in three places, a membrane that is mostly patches, or a front mansard shedding shingles? A DC rowhouse roof is replaced differently to a suburban one, from how the debris comes down to what happens at the party wall. We walk it, photograph it and give you a written price with the decking rate settled up front.
What Roof Replacement Work in Washington Actually Involves
What Comes Off A Rowhouse Roof
Older rowhouse roofs in Petworth, Columbia Heights and Capitol Hill often carry decades of built-up roofing over a wood plank deck. Replacement means taking it down to the deck, replacing any soft planks at the per-sheet rate already in the price, then running the new membrane up the parapet and under the coping and into the party wall on each side. Those two edges are where most flat roofs fail, so the estimate says what happens at each one rather than just naming the membrane.
Access Decides The Day
Most rowhouses have no driveway at the roof line. Old roofing comes down through the house, down a ladder from the alley, or by chute into a container on the street, and new material goes up the same way. That is priced on the estimate visit, not discovered on the morning. Permits come from the Department of Buildings, and in a historic district the Historic Preservation Office reviews anything visible from the street. A flat roof behind the parapet usually is not. A front mansard or a visible slope is.
