Service Area

Roofing & gutters
in Hill East.

Capitol Hill's quieter east end. Hill East flat roofs, mansards, and brick maintained by one local crew.

Working on Hill East's homes

Hill East carries the Hill's architecture without the tour buses: flat-roof rows, the occasional slate mansard, and brick that's seen a century of weather off the river. We handle the standard rowhouse menu here (membranes, coatings, pointing, gutters) with the same care the historic district blocks get.

What we handle in Hill East

  • Flat roofing: TPO, EPDM, and modified bitumen with proper parapet and scupper detail.
  • Roof coatings: reflective coatings that cool the top floor and stretch the roof's life.
  • Roof repair: leaks traced to the source. 24/7 for emergencies.
  • Brick pointing: matched mortar for century-old rowhouse walls and parapets.
  • Gutter installation: seamless runs and downspouts sized for real storms.
  • Chimney pointing: rooftop masonry that stops ceiling stains below.

Built for DC weather

Flat rowhouse roofs live a hard life here: summer sun bakes the membrane, fall fills the scuppers with leaves, and winter freeze-thaw works at every parapet joint. The failures are predictable (ponding, seam splits, parapet wicking), and so are the fixes, if they're done before water finds the plaster. Our materials and details are specced for exactly this housing stock.
