What to know about Asphalt shingle roofing
Asphalt shingles are the default covering on American houses, and the most useful thing a homeowner can learn before buying one is that shingle lines from the same manufacturer are not equivalent. Wind performance is reported through two ASTM test methods, D3161 and D7158, each with its own lettered classes, and hail performance through the UL 2218 impact classes. Those letters live on the product data sheet rather than in the brochure, and they are what a roofer should be naming when the roof is going onto a storm-exposed house.

Prices depend on the details of your project. We only publish price ranges when they’re backed by real LokalMatch quote data or reliable sources. Until then, here’s what usually changes the price:
- Roof size and the number of layers to remove
- Roofing material
- Slope and how steep the roof is to work on
- Access to the roof and the site
- Condition of the decking underneath
- Flashing, vents, skylights and chimneys to work around
- Amount of repair work compared with a full replacement
How to choose roofers in Chesapeake
- Ask for a written quote that lists the materials, the scope of work and what happens if damaged decking is found once the old roof is off.
- Look for a roofer who inspects the roof in person, including the attic if possible, before giving you a price.
- Check that they carry liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage, since roof work is high-risk.
- Compare quotes on the same scope: tear-off or overlay, underlayment, flashing, vents and cleanup.
- Ask to see recent roofs they've done that are similar to yours in material and slope.
Questions to ask roofers before you hire
- Will you remove the old roofing or install over it, and why?
- How will you handle damaged decking or other surprises once the roof is open?
- Who will pull the permit if one is needed?
- Can you show me proof of liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage?
- What warranty do you offer on your workmanship, and how long does it last?
- How will you protect my yard, gutters and siding, and how will you clean up nails and debris?
- Will your own crew do the work, or will you use subcontractors?
Shingle roofing permits in Chesapeake
Some shingle roofing work needs a permit or has to meet local bylaws. Rules vary by municipality, so ask your pro whether a permit is needed and who will apply for it — and check with your city or town if you’re unsure.

Licensing in Virginia
Consumer protection
DPOR says regulatory boards set the minimum competency standards needed to practise without harming the public, and it runs a recovery fund for consumers. Filing a claim does not guarantee payment, and the fund is supported entirely by assessments paid by licensees rather than by tax revenue.
