Know The Extras:
Plywood Decking
Replacing your roof’s decking is simply a matter of when needed. We always give honest opinions once we tear off your roof and will only recommend roof decking replacement for specific areas as required. We always communicate first!
Flashing
Flashing is fitted anywhere on your roof’s chimney, or something like a wall or pipe sticks out of your roof! This prevents roof leaks!
Pipe Collar Replacement
You can read about our perma-boot pipe cover, which is fantastic for repairing and preventing leaks!
Ridge Vent
At the top of your roof is the ridge. This is something that is priced per linear foot. If your house is 40 feet long, you would need 40 feet of ridge vent in this case. Your ridge vent helps your roof breathe!
Would you like to add a skylight?
If you are getting a new roof, why not add natural sun with a skylight?

How Roof Costs Are Calculated:
Roofing replacement costs are calculated based on “Square.” A square refers to 100 square feet of shingles. Factors that determine the amount of square required for your roof include the size of your home, the pitch, the slope, and eaves/crevasses.
Average Roof Sizes
- Townhomes: 10-12 square
- Single Family Home: 20 square +
- XL Home or Hip Roof: 40 square +
No Hassle Warranties
In addition to our title, we are proud to offer the CertainTeed SureStart Plus Warranty to protect your home for years to come, in addition to the Top Dog Home Pro labor warranty!
Upfront Pricing
Many roofing companies will use high-stakes sales and high-pressure tactics to get you to commit to a roof and price you might not want. We don’t do this; see our reviews below!

Luke at Top Dog Home Pro was great to work with on my roof replacement. He was very quick to respond to my inquiry and within a day was able to provide an estimate for my roof. Luke made the whole process very easy. The team that completed the work at my house were very professional and did an outstanding job. They were very quick and cleaned up everything as if they were never here. They even cleaned up my neighbors yard from roofers that had left debris in their yard two weeks ago! I would highly recommend Top Dog for your roofing needs! Thanks again!

🙂 HomeownerI called Top Dog during the recent wind storm (Fri) to schedule an estimate because I knew all of the roofing contractors would be slammed. Luke was out the next afternoon (Sat) with a quote less than I anticipated. He estimated he could get to me within the week. This morning (Sun) he called to tell me his crew would be out today to take care of the repair. Excellent job and customer service. I always go for the small businesses first.

🙂 HomeownerI chose Top Dog Home Pro when I needed a new roof, and I could not be more pleased. They were outstanding to work with, and Luke got me on the schedule much sooner than I anticipated. Billy’s quote was competitive–exceptional given the high quality–and he offered perfect shingle-color advice when I asked. The crew was very impressive, efficient, and professional. They did a top-notch job on both the roof replacement and clean-up, and Luke had excellent communication and follow-up. Additionally, you will not find a contracting company that demonstrates their care for the community more than Top Dog as they donate money from each new roof to the Prince William County Animal Shelter.

Frequently Asked Questions:
What is the difference between three-tab shingles and architectural shingles?
When you are having your roof replaced, oftentimes, you will be replacing the asphalt shingles on your existing roof. Everything is replaced except for the decking – unless it needs to be. Most people will have the option to pick between architectural or three-tab shingles. Here is a comparison of the two:
Three Tab Shingles:
- The flat, rectangular three-tab shingles are budget-friendly but don’t offer much in terms of variety or texture
- It is not as durable as premium shingles, and the wind warranty is not rated as high
- The price per square foot is only a dollar or so cheaper than laminated architectural roof shingles
- Will get the job done when it comes down to it. However, the lifespan of a three-tab shingle roof is shorter.
- It is ideal if you need a quick replacement and don’t plan on staying long at your current house.
Architectural Shingles:
- The most popular roofing materials on the market right now
- A variety of colors and textures give curb appeal
- Rated at 130 MPH for wind protection by the big three suppliers (CertainTeed, Owens Corning, GAF) when installed by a master shingle company
- It gives the appearance of wood shake shingles
- ROI is 70% or higher with a new roof
Are metal roofs better than asphalt shingle roofs? Which is more expensive?
Metal roofs are generally considered more durable and longer lasting than asphalt shingle roofs. However, they are more expensive. A metal roof for most homes uses standing seam panels, and the cost is nearly double of using metal roofing. An asphalt shingle roof has a more textured look and is considered durable and aesthetically pleasing, whereas metal roofs only fit certain home styles.
Why do most roofing contractors recommend architectural shingles?
If you hire a roofing company, they will most likely recommend installing architectural shingles over three-tab shingles. The most basic asphalt shingles are three tabs and are often considered “Builder Grade” shingles.
An architectural or premium shingle will have various color choices, and the design gives a textured appearance with unique color blends. The real upside is in the manufacturer’s product warranty and any additional warranties a contractor may offer for labor.
How much does a new roof cost?
Roof replacement costs really vary depending on the size of the roof and the roofing materials you decide to use. On average, a ballpark estimate for a single-family home installing new architectural shingles is between $10,000 and $15,000.
Roof prices can vary from $5,000 on the lower end up to $20,000 on the higher end. Roofs are priced via a “Square,” which is equivalent to 100 square feet. If your roof is 2,000 square feet, you need 20 square feet. This price factors in the tear-off of your old roof, underlayment, and labor costs.
Additional ridge vents, flashing, and upgrades charges are often based on linear square feet.
Should I replace or repair my roof?
If you hire a roofing company, they will most likely recommend installing architectural shingles over three-tab shingles. The most basic asphalt shingles are three tabs and are often considered “Builder Grade” shingles.
An architectural or premium shingle will have various color choices, and the design gives a textured appearance with unique color blends. The real upside is in the manufacturer’s product warranty and any additional warranties a contractor may offer for labor.
What are the most common roofing materials?
The most common roofing materials include:
- Asphalt shingles (premium, three-tab, architectural)
- Metal roofs
- Slate roofs
- Wood shake shingles
- Clay tile roofs
How do I find a roofing contractor?
If you need a professional roof inspection or even if you are just trying to sort out roof costs, you will want always to make sure you utilize a professional roofing contractor. To do this, follow these steps:
- Use search engines and reviews accordingly.
- Get a few opinions.
- Ask your friends and family/or neighbors
- Be aware of “Storm Chasers,” aka companies that are not local to you
- Only use companies that are from the area you live in – they know the market, building codes, etc.
What is replaced on a roof during a roof replacement?
During roof replacement, the following is replaced:
- The old shingles and underlayments are torn off
- New underlayment is installed along with drip edge
- The new shingles are installed
- Flashing, pipe collars, and ridge vents are added.
Additional items such as replacing rotten wood decking or adding a skylight are extra.
