Replacing a roof in Tuckahoe

Before choosing shingles, settle the bigger question: does the roof need patching or a full replacement? In Tuckahoe, the deciding factors are familiar ones. An aging covering with wear on every slope, repeated leaks, a soft or rotted deck, or layers stacked from earlier jobs all point toward replacing the whole system.

The largest group of local homes was built in the 1950s, and about 29 percent were built before 1960. On houses of that generation, you may find board sheathing or old flashing once the shingles come off, so ask how the crew will handle those findings.

Henrico County logged 36 hail reports between 2016 and 2025, with stones up to 2.4 inches. Impact-rated shingles are one option to discuss if that concerns you.

Also cover material choice, scheduling, the manufacturer's warranty on materials, and how old roofing will be removed and disposed of. A permit is generally not needed in Henrico County for a covering-only replacement on a one- or two-family home, although replacing a larger area of decking or doing structural work may change that. The county Permit Center can confirm, so ask the contractor who will check before the tear-off.
