Roofing Contractor in Prince George's & Montgomery County, MD

Your roof does one job. It keeps the weather out. When it stops doing that, you find out the hard way: a stain on the ceiling, a drip in the attic, shingles on the lawn after a storm. We fix that. Comeback Construction is a Maryland licensed contractor, MHIC #166936, serving homeowners in Prince George's and Montgomery County. We start with a free roof inspection, and you keep the photos whether you hire us or not.

Free roof inspection

We climb up and look at the whole roof. We check the shingles, the flashing, the vents, the chimney, the valleys and the gutters. If we can reach the attic, we look at the underside of the roof deck and the insulation. You get photos of everything we find and a report in plain words. No charge. No pressure. If the roof is fine, we tell you so.

Active leak? We tarp it within a day

If water is coming in right now, call (227) 229-6633. We tarp the roof within a day so the damage stops first. A leak that runs for a week ruins insulation, drywall and sometimes the wood framing. Stopping it fast costs far less than fixing what it does. Once the roof is covered, we sort out the repair or the replacement without a rush.

Roof repair

Not every roof needs replacing. A few lifted shingles, a failed vent boot or worn flashing around a chimney can be fixed for much less than a new roof. We do not push replacement when a repair will do. After the inspection, you see the photos and the price for both options when both make sense.

Common repairs include:

• Replacing missing, cracked or lifted shingles.
• Resealing and replacing vent boots and pipe flashing.
• Rebuilding chimney, wall and valley flashing.
• Repairing soft sections of the roof deck.
• Fixing gutters and fascia that let water behind the roof edge.

Roof replacement in one day

Most roofs come off and get dried in within a day. We arrive early, protect your landscaping, strip the old roof, inspect the deck underneath and put on the new roof. Any rotten wood gets replaced, and you see the photo and the price before we do it. We sweep the yard for nails before we leave. If your roof needs more than one day, we tell you before we start.

Your price is fixed and in writing. The written estimate lists labor and materials, and the estimate is the invoice. Extras happen only if you say yes.

Storm damage and your insurance claim

You pay for homeowners insurance. After a storm, it may cover the damage. We cannot promise that. Your insurance company decides.

What we do is document the damage. You get a photo report. We explain each step of the claim in plain English, and you stay in charge. We have never lost an insurance claim for a customer.

1. We inspect the roof and take photos.
2. You get the report.
3. You decide whether to file a claim.
4. You talk to your insurance company, and we explain what to expect.
5. The adjuster visits. We can be there if you want us to be.
6. You pick the materials and we build.

What we install

Most of our customers choose architectural shingles. They are thicker than the flat shingles on older homes and hold up better in the wind. We bring sample boards so you can see the color against your house, and we check your HOA color list when your neighborhood has one. Under the shingles go new underlayment and new flashing at the chimney, vents and valleys, and we check the attic ventilation so the new roof can breathe. We do not reuse old flashing on a new roof.

We also work on siding, gutters, windows and doors, so if your roof job uncovers a problem with the walls or the roof edge, we fix it in the same project through our general contracting services.

Gutters and the roof edge

Water leaves the roof through the gutters, so a failing gutter often looks like a failing roof. Sagging gutters, loose fascia and downspouts that dump water at the foundation all cause damage. We check them on every inspection and fix them with the roof when they need work.

How old is too old?

A typical asphalt roof lasts about 20 years, and heat, shade and storms shorten that. Look for curling or cracked shingles, bare patches, granules in the gutters and stains inside. If your roof is past 20 years and nobody has looked at it, book the inspection. A roof that is borderline can often be repaired for a few more years, and you will have time to plan and finance a replacement instead of reacting to a leak.
