Roofing & gutters
in Georgetown.

Working on Georgetown's homes

Georgetown's housing stock is the oldest in the city: Federal townhouses and Victorian rows where the roof might be standing-seam metal, slate, or a built-in box gutter hidden behind a parapet. Old Georgetown Board review means materials and details matter, and shortcuts show. We repair and restore with period-correct slate, copper flashing, and lime-based mortar, and we handle the documentation that review requires.

What we handle in Georgetown

• Slate roofing: mansards and turrets repaired with matched salvaged slate.
• Flat roofing: the hidden flat decks behind those ornate cornices.
• Brick restoration: gentle cleaning, repointing, and matched brick replacement.
• Chimney repair: crowns, caps, and spalled brick fixed for good.
• Gutter installation: half-round copper and box gutter relining for historic facades.
• Roof repair: storm damage and leaks handled before they grow.

Built for DC weather

Victorian-era roofs and masonry fail gracefully (a slipped slate here, a hairline crown crack there) until one winter they don't. Freeze-thaw pries open whatever water can reach, and DC gets dozens of those cycles a season. We work on these houses the way they were built: matched materials, patient detail work, and metal that lasts as long as the stone.

Honest, neighbor-first estimates

We've built our name in Georgetown the slow way: showing up when we said, charging what we quoted, and leaving the site cleaner than we found it. Every estimate is free, written, and itemized, with no surprise line items.
