In Maryland, contractors who repair, replace or remodel part of a home generally need a license from the Maryland Home Improvement Commission. Homeowners can look up a contractor's license by name, business name, location or license number on the state's search page. Before you hire, check the contractor's record with the Maryland Home Improvement Commission.

Under the Rockville City Code, replacing the roof covering and underlayment in kind on a one- or two-family home does not need a building permit when the roof deck and structural members are not replaced or altered; deck or structural work needs a permit from the city's Inspection Services Division, and roof changes in a Historic District Zone need Historic District Commission approval. Building permits for Rockville are handled by City of Rockville Community Planning and Development Services - Inspection Services Division.

From 2016 to 2025, NOAA recorded 55 hail reports (largest hailstone 2.75 in), 443 thunderstorm wind damage reports (gusts up to 90 mph) and 7 tornadoes in Montgomery County. The local forecast zone also logged 12 winter storm or heavy snow events and 12 high wind events. Hail of this size can damage asphalt shingles, so ask the contractor about impact-rated options.

Rockville has about 28,200 housing units. About 40 percent are detached single-family homes. About 19 percent were built before 1960, and the largest group of homes was built in the 2000s. About 53 percent of occupied homes are owner-occupied. Ask the contractor whether the old shingles will be removed down to the deck, and how the deck and the attic ventilation will be checked.

Owner-occupants account for roughly 53 percent of Rockville homes, and landlords make many of the remaining roof decisions. Whoever decides, the logic is the same: patching handles a contained problem, while a full replacement fits a roof that is old, worn across large areas, carrying damaged decking, or already layered.
The largest group of local homes went up in the 2000s, and many roofs from that period are reaching replacement age together. Hail is the weather factor to plan for: county records include hailstones up to 2.75 inches in diameter, so impact-rated shingles deserve a line in the comparison.
Rockville sets its own rule. Replacing the covering and underlayment in kind on a one- or two-family home generally needs no city permit as long as the deck and framing stay untouched; deck or structural work does. Because the answer depends on scope, check it with the city's Inspection Services Division and agree on who applies if needed.
Also discuss the material you want, how long the job is expected to take and when it can start, the terms of the manufacturer's product warranty, and how tear-off waste will leave the site.
