Replacing a roof in Centreville

Roofs on newer houses wear out too. About 89 percent of Centreville homes were built in 1980 or later, with the largest group from the 1980s, so many original coverings in the area are now old enough to raise the question of replacement.

A full replacement is usually the sensible answer when shingles are cracked, curled or bare across large sections, when leaks have shown up in more than one place, or when the plywood deck has started to delaminate or sag. If a second layer was installed over the first at some point, a tear-off lets the crew inspect the deck directly.

Fairfax County recorded 39 hail reports from 2016 to 2025. If hail is on your mind, ask the contractor to explain impact-rated shingle options.

Then work through the rest of the plan: which material fits the house, how the work will be scheduled, what the manufacturer's warranty on the materials covers, and how removal and disposal of the old roofing will be handled. For covering-only work on a one- or two-family home, a permit is generally not required in Fairfax County, but replacing larger areas of decking or structural members can change that. Land Development Services can confirm the requirements.
