Proudly Serving Washington D.C., Northern Virginia & Maryland

Flagship Service Region

National Restoration's Flagship Region

The Washington D.C. Metro is National Restoration's most active service region, with hundreds of roofing and siding projects completed across Northern Virginia and Maryland. Our crews work daily in Germantown, Silver Spring, Gaithersburg, Rockville, Arlington, Bethesda, Fairfax, Woodbridge, and dozens of communities in between.

The region's complexity demands a contractor who can operate at every level: managing a CHAP certificate-of-appropriateness in a Baltimore historic district on Tuesday, replacing wind-lifted shingles across an Ashburn HOA on Wednesday, and coordinating a commercial TPO replacement in Crystal City on Thursday. That breadth is what we do.

From the colonial-era rowhomes of Georgetown and Alexandria to the post-war ranches of Silver Spring and the contemporary estates of McLean and Potomac, every project receives the same standard: licensed crews, coordinated insurance claims, and materials rated for the Mid-Atlantic climate.

How We Operate

01

Document

Our professional inspectors photograph every impact zone, measure every surface, and produce a carrier-ready damage report before the adjuster steps on-site. We speak the same Xactimate language your insurer uses — so nothing gets missed and supplement cycles are minimized.

02

Coordinate

We coordinate with local code authorities as required across the D.C. Metro region — and manage HOA, CHAP, and HPRB review where applicable. Historic overlay? HOA approval? We handle the paperwork so the project timeline stays on track.

03

Restore

Licensed crews. Materials rated for the Mid-Atlantic climate — ice-and-water shield at every eave and valley, freeze-thaw–grade flashing, and algae-resistant granule systems for the humid summers. Every project backed by a 5-year workmanship warranty (longer terms available with system upgrades).

Architectural Context

Every Era of American Architecture

The D.C. Metro contains one of the most architecturally diverse housing stocks in the country. Restoration work here demands knowledge that no single-market contractor can match.

Colonial & Federal

Georgetown, Old Town Alexandria, Annapolis Historic District, and Fells Point contain the highest concentration of 18th-century colonial and Federal-style buildings in the nation. Cedar shingle roofs, hand-split clapboard, and period-accurate copper flashings are standard requirements. Historic review boards govern material selection on every façade change.

Victorian & Gilded Age

Baltimore's Bolton Hill and Mount Vernon, Roland Park's Shingle-Style estates, and DC's Dupont Circle and Logan Circle feature ornate Italianate, Queen Anne, and Second Empire architecture. These buildings commonly have mansard slate roofs, decorative cornices, and complex valley systems that require specialized restoration skills.

Cape Cod & Colonial Revival

Post-war suburban expansion produced thousands of Cape Cods and Colonial Revivals across Arlington Ridge, Silver Spring, Takoma Park, and Bethesda. These homes frequently have under-insulated attic spaces that produce ice dams in winter and are prime candidates for full shingle replacement after hail events.

Mid-Century Ranch & Split-Level

The 1950s–70s suburban boom left a large inventory of single-story ranches and split-levels across Fairfax, Montgomery, and Prince George's counties. Low-slope or shallow-pitch roofs on these homes require attention to ice-and-water underlayment and ventilation to prevent moisture accumulation.

Brick Rowhouse

Baltimore and DC contain tens of thousands of attached brick rowhouses spanning from the 1830s to the 1960s. These buildings share party walls, have low-slope or near-flat roofs, and require coordinated replacement across multiple units to prevent water migration between properties. Parapet flashing and scupper drainage are the dominant failure points.

Contemporary & Custom Estate

McLean, Great Falls, Potomac, and Gibson Island contain a significant inventory of architect- designed custom homes with standing-seam metal roofs, synthetic slate, and complex multi-plane roof geometries. These projects require precision-fit metal work and manufacturer-certified installation to maintain warranty coverage.

Climate solutions
Built for the D.C. Climate

Washington's four distinct seasons demand flexible, durable construction. Our restoration and exterior systems are engineered to withstand intense summer heat & humidity, heavy rain & tropical remnants, winter snow & ice, and wind & hail impacts.

Weather Patterns

DC Metro Weather: What Damages Roofs Here

The Mid-Atlantic sits at the intersection of continental air masses and Atlantic moisture pathways. The result is a climate that produces more varied and intense storm damage than most homeowners anticipate.

Derechos & Microbursts

The June 2012 derecho ranks among the most destructive wind events in DC Metro history, with straight-line winds exceeding 80 mph across Fairfax, Montgomery, and DC proper. Derechos lift shingles, topple mature hardwoods, and cause structural roof damage across wide swaths of the region in a single hour.

Tropical Remnants

Hurricane remnants track up the Chesapeake corridor regularly. Tropical Storm Isaias (2020) and the remnants of Florence (2018) each dropped 4–8 inches of rain across the metro in under 24 hours, overwhelming valley flashings, overflowing gutters, and flooding basements on homes that had no visible damage before the storm.

Freeze-Thaw & Ice Dams

DC winters cycle through freezing and thawing more than colder northern cities, which accelerates ice-dam formation on under-insulated attic spaces. Pre-war and post-war homes throughout Silver Spring, Bethesda, and Arlington are particularly vulnerable. Ice-and-water underlayment on the first three feet from the eave is standard on all our replacements.

Hail Corridors

Western Loudoun, northern Fairfax, and the Montgomery County piedmont sit in a recognized hail corridor where supercell thunderstorms frequently produce 1–2 inch hail. A single hail event in this corridor can strip granules from hundreds of asphalt shingle roofs, triggering large-scale insurance-claim activity across entire HOA communities.

Historic Overlays

Navigating the Region's Regulatory Complexity

No metropolitan area in the country has more layered historic preservation oversight than Washington D.C. and its suburbs. We coordinate with local code authorities and manage historic review submissions across every relevant jurisdiction.

DC Historic Preservation Review Board (HPRB)

DC's HPRB governs exterior changes in designated historic landmarks and districts including Georgetown, Capitol Hill, Dupont Circle, Logan Circle, and Mount Pleasant. Any roof, siding, window, or façade change visible from a public right-of-way requires a Certificate of Appropriateness before work begins. We prepare and submit CA applications.

Arlington Historical Affairs & Landmark Review Board (HALRB)

Arlington's HALRB reviews exterior changes in historic districts including Maywood, Fort Myer Heights, and Arlington Ridge. The Alexandria Board of Architectural Review governs Old Town, Parker-Gray, and other Alexandria historic districts. Both boards require pre-application consultation and material sample submissions.

Fairfax County Historic Overlay District

Fairfax County's Historic Overlay District applies to designated properties in Clifton, Herndon, and other historic areas. Loudoun County maintains separate historic preservation review for Leesburg's Old and Historic District. In both counties, our team coordinates with Land Development Services and Building and Development respectively.

Montgomery County M-NCPPC

The Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission (M-NCPPC) reviews historic resource impact for designated properties in Montgomery County. Silver Spring and Takoma Park both maintain local historic preservation programs with their own review processes. We coordinate with Montgomery County DPS on documentation.

Annapolis Historic District Commission

The Annapolis Historic Preservation Commission oversees the largest concentration of 18th-century architecture in the country. Exterior work in the historic district requires a certificate of approval before construction can begin. Cedar shake, hand-split clapboard, and copper flashings are frequently specified materials.

Baltimore CHAP

Baltimore's Commission for Historical and Architectural Preservation governs exterior changes in Federal Hill, Fells Point, Bolton Hill, Mount Vernon, Union Square, and other city historic districts. Certificate-of-appropriateness submissions require detailed drawings and material specifications. We have extensive CHAP submission experience across all major Baltimore historic neighborhoods.
