Roof Replacement in Maryland & Southern PA

GAF Master Elite Certification

300+ 5-Star Reviews

Accredited and A+

The typical roof of a family home lasts for about 15 years.

Once this milestone is reached, it may be time to consider a full roof replacement.

As an addendum, certain areas with different climates have longer-lasting roofs, while others have roofs that need replacing more frequently.

This means that you will probably need to replace your roof more than once as a homeowner.

When that time comes, it will certainly help to have a competent roofing company by your side.

How Do I Find the Right Roofing Contractor?

roof-sky-crew

Finding the right roofing contractor in Maryland can be a test of patience.

Where should you look, and who should you consult if you find yourself facing this challenge?

We recommend reaching out to other homeowners in your neighborhood, your friends or business colleagues who can point you to potential roofing contractors they have worked with before.

Another thing that can help you is to know whether your roof is insured.

If it is, then you can replace it for free, and the roofing company you hire will be the one collaborating with your insurance company.

As a company specializing in all-inclusive roof replacement services in Maryland, AC Matthews should be your top choice.

Call our number, send us an email, or fill out our online form to schedule an appointment for a roof inspection. We’ll get back to you within 24 hours and set a date to drive out to your area!

Once our team arrives, we get to work. We conduct a full, comprehensive investigation to determine if you need a full roof replacement or just a few minor repairs. As well as your roof, we check your home's interior and attic for any signs of roof related damage.

In order to develop an effective replacement plan, our roofers first need to determine what sort of roofing material they’re working with, as well as what products and tools will be needed for a smooth roof replacement.

All debris is cleared and the area around your home cordoned off to ensure a safe environment for the contractors to begin working.

The brunt of the work is completed at this stage. The entire roof is removed and discarded. We make sure to strip everything down to the roof decking in preparation for your new roof.

Before installing your new roof, an underlayment is placed on top of the roof decking. This important layer helps keep your roof and wood decking waterproof. After the underlayment is in place, our contractors begin installing your new roof. The length of time for installation will depend on the size of your home and the materials being used.

Finishing with a flourish, our team makes sure to seal and secure your new roof in order to maximize its durability and lifespan. We conduct one final inspection to make sure everything is up to our standard and to code.

At AC Matthews, we stand behind our work. Once a replacement has been installed, we follow up with you to ensure everything is performing as expected. Once we make sure that our work meets our high standard of quality, the job is considered finished.

Most roof replacements in Maryland can be done within a week or less. So don’t hesitate when it comes to lack of time–contact us today and let’s get you a new roof!

Frequently Asked Questions

If your roof has minor damage—like a few missing shingles or a small leak—repair may be all that’s needed. However, if your roof is aging, has widespread damage, or has been impacted by severe weather, a full replacement might be the more cost-effective and long-term solution. At AC Matthews, we offer free inspections and expert guidance to help you make the right decision for your home.

Our roof installation process is designed to be straightforward and stress-free:

  1. Free Estimate – We inspect your roof and provide an honest, no-pressure quote.
  2. Project Planning – Your dedicated project representative walks you through material options and timelines.
  3. Preparation – We protect your property and remove the old roofing materials.
  4. Installation – Our team installs your new roof with precision and care, using high-quality materials.
  5. Clean-Up & Final Inspection – We ensure your property is spotless and walk you through the final result for full satisfaction.

We offer a variety of durable and attractive roofing materials to suit your home and budget:

We will help you choose the best material based on your needs and preferences.

If you spot water stains, drips, or damp spots on your ceiling, act quickly. Contact AC Matthews for a free roof inspection. Delaying repairs can lead to more severe and costly damage. We’ll identify the source of the leak and recommend the most effective repair or replacement option.

Gutter guards are protective covers that prevent leaves, debris, and pests from clogging your gutters. They help keep water flowing away from your home, reducing the risk of water damage and foundation issues. If your gutters frequently clog or you want to minimize seasonal maintenance, gutter guards are a smart investment. AC Matthews offers professional gutter guard installation tailored to your home.

Frequently Asked Questions

A repair may be enough when damage is limited to a small area and the rest of the roof is still in good condition. Replacement may be the better option when there is widespread shingle deterioration, recurring leaks, significant storm damage, or an aging roofing system with multiple problem areas. A professional inspection can help determine which option makes the most sense for your home.

The best roofing material depends on your home, budget, appearance preferences, and long-term goals. Asphalt shingles are a common choice for residential roof replacement because they offer a wide range of styles and price points. Other materials may also be available depending on the property and project requirements.

In most cases, yes. Homeowners can typically remain in the house while the roof is being replaced, although the work can be noisy and cause some vibration inside the home. It is a good idea to secure fragile items, make arrangements for pets, and keep children away from active work areas until the project is complete.

Once the old roofing materials are removed, the roof decking can be inspected for rot, moisture damage, or structural deterioration that was not visible beforehand. Any damaged sections may need to be replaced before the new roofing system is installed so the new roof has a sound, stable surface underneath it.

Roof replacement can be completed during much of the year, but weather conditions play an important role in scheduling. Dry, moderate conditions are generally ideal, while heavy rain, snow, ice, or extreme temperatures can delay installation. If your roof is already failing, however, it is usually better to address the problem promptly rather than wait for a particular season.
