Olney MD Roofing Contractor
GAF Master Elite roofers serving Olney Mill, Hallowell, Manor Oaks, Norbeck, Williamsburg Village, and every upper Montgomery County block in between — with ventilation upgrades, canopy-ready shingle specs, and lifetime workmanship on every roof.
Olney's Local Roofing Contractor
Olney roofs sit on a very specific housing stock: 1970s and 80s split-levels and colonials in Olney Mill, Hallowell, and Williamsburg Village (routinely on their 3rd roof with undersized original ventilation), Cape Cods and ramblers along the Norbeck corridor, and larger estates in Manor Oaks, Manor Lake, and Fair Hill Farm with cut-up roofs, dormers, and 3,500+ square feet under upper Montgomery County's dense hardwood canopy. Each demands a different spec — and getting it right means StainGuard Plus algae-resistant shingles for the canopy, ice & water shield past code in every valley, and a real ridge and soffit ventilation upgrade on every 1970s-era re-roof.
Potomac Custom Remodeling is a GAF Master Elite contractor (top 2% of U.S. roofers) and MHIC #140855 licensed roofer. Every Montgomery County DPS permit is pulled under our MHIC number and delivered closed with your warranty packet. Full-system installs are the default, not an upsell.

What Olney Homeowners Say
"1972 Olney Mill split — third-generation roof, cooking in the attic every summer. PCR upgraded ridge and soffit ventilation, replaced four sheets of decking, and installed GAF Timberline HDZ in Charcoal. Attic temperature dropped 22 degrees in July."
"Manor Oaks estate — 38 squares, cut-up roof, dormers, three skylights. Got five bids and PCR was the only Master Elite in the group. Spec'd Class 4 Titan XT under the canopy, coordinated the Montgomery County permit, and finished in two and a half days."
"Storm dropped a limb through our Hallowell colonial roof. PCR had a tarp on it in six hours, met the adjuster the next morning, and re-roofed the whole house the following week. Cleanup was spotless — kids never found a nail."
Olney Roofing FAQ
How much does a new roof cost in Olney, MD?
Most Olney single-family roof replacements run $11,000-$24,000 for architectural asphalt (GAF Timberline HDZ or Tamko Heritage) on a typical 18-26 square split or colonial in Olney Mill, Hallowell, or Williamsburg Village. Larger Manor Oaks and Fair Hill estates run $22,000-$45,000+, and designer shingle installs (Camelot II, Grand Sequoia) add roughly 25-40% over a standard architectural install. Every quote is fixed, written, and line-itemed on site.
Are you licensed to roof in Olney and Montgomery 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 Montgomery County DPS permit under our MHIC number and deliver the closed permit with your warranty packet.
Which shingle brands do you install in Olney?
We install GAF and Tamko only. As a GAF Master Elite contractor (top 2% of U.S. roofers), we qualify Olney homeowners for the GAF Golden Pledge — GAF's strongest warranty, with 25 years of PCR workmanship coverage. Tamko installs carry the Heritage Premium warranty. We do not install Owens Corning, CertainTeed, or other brands.
How long does an Olney roof replacement take?
Most Olney single-family roofs are torn off and re-installed in one to two full days. Larger Manor Oaks and Fair Hill estates run 2-3 days. Designer shingle installs add roughly a day. We tarp landscaping, magnetically sweep the site every evening, and haul debris in covered dump trailers.
Do you handle storm damage roofs in Olney?
Yes. Between summer thunderstorms rolling through the upper Montgomery County corridor, occasional hail, and falling limbs off Olney's mature canopy, storm-related roof damage is common. We meet your adjuster on site, document damage with photos and drone footage, and provide the itemized scope your insurer needs. 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 Olney emergency roof leak?
We tarp emergency leaks in Olney within 24 hours in almost every case. Call (443) 684-4448 anytime; after-hours calls route to our on-call roofer.
Do you offer financing for Olney roof replacements?
Yes. PCR offers 0% and low-APR financing through our lending partners on approved credit. Most Olney homeowners are approved same-day and see monthly payments well under $200 on a typical re-roof.
Do 1970s Olney Mill and Hallowell roofs need a ventilation upgrade?
Almost always yes. Original 1970s ridge-and-soffit ventilation in Olney Mill, Hallowell, and Williamsburg Village was undersized by modern standards, which cooks shingles from underneath and shortens roof life 5-10 years. Every PCR re-roof includes a ridge and soffit ventilation calculation and upgrade to current code, and it's usually the single biggest driver of longer roof life.
