Annapolis Roofing Company
GAF Master Elite roofers serving Eastport, Murray Hill, Wardour, Bay Ridge, and every Historic District block in between — with salt-air-ready flashings and lifetime workmanship on every roof.
Annapolis's Coastal Roofing Specialists
Roofing in Annapolis isn't the same as roofing 15 miles inland. Salt air off the Severn, South River, and the Chesapeake corrodes galvanized fasteners and standard flashings in a fraction of the time it takes elsewhere in Maryland. Nor'easters and hurricane remnants push 60-80 mph gusts across Eastport, Bay Ridge, and Hillsmere Shores every year. And roofs inside the Historic District carry HPC-approval requirements that most contractors have never navigated.
Potomac Custom Remodeling is a GAF Master Elite contractor (top 2% of U.S. roofers) and MHIC #140855 licensed roofer with an office 15 minutes from downtown Annapolis. We spec GAF Timberline HDZ with StainGuard Plus algae resistance, stainless step flashing on waterfront jobs, copper on historic homes, and ice & water shield past code at every eave and valley. Every Anne Arundel County permit is pulled under our MHIC number and delivered closed with your warranty packet.

We spec 130 mph shingles, stainless flashings on waterfront jobs, and StainGuard Plus algae resistance on every roof.

What Annapolis Homeowners Say
"Our 1920s Murray Hill colonial needed a full re-roof with Historic District approval. PCR handled the HPC paperwork, installed GAF Camelot II shingles, and copper chimney flashing. Beautiful work."
"Waterfront in Bay Ridge, salt air destroys everything. PCR specified stainless flashing and StainGuard Plus shingles — three other quotes didn't even mention it. Clear the winners."
"Nor'easter tore off half our Eastport roof at 11pm. PCR had a tarp on the next morning and a full new GAF roof on within 10 days. Adjuster said their scope was the most detailed he'd ever seen."
Annapolis Roofing FAQ
How much does a new roof cost in Annapolis, MD?
Most Annapolis single-family roof replacements run $14,000-$32,000 for architectural asphalt (GAF Timberline HDZ or Tamko Heritage) on a typical 20-30 square colonial or Cape Cod. Historic District homes, Wardour and Bay Ridge waterfront properties, or upgrades to GAF Grand Sequoia / Camelot II designer shingles run $28,000-$60,000+. Every quote is fixed, written, and line-itemed on site.
Are you licensed to roof in Annapolis and Anne Arundel County?
Yes. Potomac Custom Remodeling holds Maryland Home Improvement Commission license #140855, carries $2M general liability, and provides full workers' compensation coverage. We pull every Annapolis and Anne Arundel County permit under our MHIC number and deliver the closed permit with your warranty packet.
Do you work on Historic District roofs?
Yes. Roofs inside the Annapolis Historic District often require Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) approval on visible materials and profiles. We help homeowners select HPC-appropriate designer shingles (GAF Grand Sequoia and Camelot II are common approvals), assemble the documentation the HPC needs, and coordinate the install once approval is issued.
What shingles work best in Annapolis's coastal, salt-air climate?
For anything near the Severn, South River, or the Bay we spec GAF Timberline HDZ with StainGuard Plus algae resistance, stainless step flashing (not galvanized), and either copper or pre-finished aluminum valley and chimney flashing. Salt air corrodes standard fasteners and gutters quickly — we upgrade the flashing package on every waterfront job.
How long does an Annapolis roof replacement take?
Most Annapolis single-family roofs are torn off and re-installed in one full day. Larger Historic District colonials, steep-pitch Victorians, or projects with significant deck repair extend into a second day. Slate-profile designer shingle installs take 2-3 days. We tarp landscaping, sweep magnetically every evening, and haul all debris in a covered dump trailer.
What shingle brands do you install in Annapolis?
We install GAF and Tamko only. As a GAF Master Elite contractor (top 2% of U.S. roofers), we qualify Annapolis homeowners for the GAF Golden Pledge — GAF's strongest warranty. Tamko installs carry Tamko's Heritage Premium warranty. We do not install Owens Corning, CertainTeed, or other brands.
Do you help with storm damage roofs in Annapolis?
Yes. Annapolis takes a beating from summer thunderstorms, hurricanes tracking up the Bay, and winter nor'easters. We meet your adjuster on site, document hail and wind damage with photos and drone footage, and provide the itemized scope your insurer needs to approve replacement. Under Maryland law only licensed public adjusters can negotiate claim amounts, so PCR focuses on accurate scopes, code-compliant repairs, and the strongest possible warranty on the new roof.
How quickly can you respond to an Annapolis emergency roof leak?
Our Crofton HQ is 15 minutes from downtown Annapolis. We tarp emergency leaks within 24 hours in almost every case — often the same day. Call (443) 684-4448 anytime; after-hours calls route to our on-call roofer.
