Pick your shingle. Pick your warranty.
All four lines carry OC Platinum’s 50-year non-prorated material warranty when installed by DreamHome. The differences are weight, profile, and aesthetics.
Duration
The 80% answer for VA and MD homes. SureNail strip technology, 130 mph wind warranty, StreakGuard algae protection. Most architectural-shingle quotes start here.
Duration STORM / FLEX
Class IV impact-rated. Heavier weight per square, 150 mph wind warranty. Eligible for insurance impact-discount credit in many MD and VA carriers.
Duration Designer
Larger exposure, deeper shadow lines, designer colorways. The choice when you want curb appeal without going to Berkshire pricing.
Berkshire
Slate-look luxury collection. Multi-dimensional profile, sculpted shadow lines, premium colorways. Often the answer when an HOA requires slate-look replacement.
Six factors that change your specific quote.
The published range is honest, but the fixed-price quote depends on six variables we measure during the in-home HAAG inspection.
Square footage
Measured by drone, not eyeballed off Google. A 22-square (2,200 sq ft) roof vs an 18-square has roughly a 22% price gap on materials alone.
Roof pitch and complexity
More valleys, dormers, and hips add labor hours and material waste. A simple gable roof installs faster than a multi-pitch hip with three dormers.
Decking condition
About 1 in 4 tear-offs reveals some level of decking rot, usually around bath vents, chimney bases, or overflowing gutters. Per-sheet rate of $65 to $100 disclosed in the quote so there are no change orders.
Existing layers
Tear-off of two layers vs one adds disposal cost and labor. We never install over existing shingles (voids the OC warranty), so a two-layer tear-off is the cost difference.
Shingle line chosen
Duration is standard. Duration STORM / FLEX adds 10 to 15%. Duration Designer adds 25 to 40%. Berkshire adds 50 to 80%. The Platinum warranty covers all four equally.
Accessibility
Steep pitch, three-story, tight property access (no driveway parking, no dumpster space) all add labor. Most subdivision homes are standard access; some Old Town, Reston, and Bethesda properties are not.
Not every roof needs $15,000.
DreamHome is the only contractor in Virginia and Maryland with BOTH Owens Corning Platinum AND Roof Maxx authorization. Three paths means we recommend what your roof actually needs, not what gives us margin.
Targeted Repair
Fix the specific failure point (leak, missing shingles, flashing). 2-year workmanship warranty. Right when less than 25% of the roof is damaged AND the rest is under 10 years old.
Roof Maxx Restoration
Soy-oil treatment that brings flexibility back to drying shingles. Applied at year 0, 5, and 10. Each application adds 5 years of life. Three applications run roughly 20 to 50% the cost of full replacement.
Full OC Platinum Replacement
Complete tear-off plus OC Platinum-tier install. 50-year non-prorated warranty. One-day install for most homes. Right when damage exceeds 25%, OR the roof is over 15 years old with widespread granule loss.

Maryland pricing instead →Why we publish ranges and stand by fixed-price quotes.
Public ranges, not vague ‘starting at’ bait
The range you see on this page is the actual range homeowners pay. We do not publish a $4,999 number that no real roof costs to bait the click.
The quote is the price
After the HAAG inspection, the written quote is fixed. No surprise change orders. Decking rate is disclosed up front so even rot found at tear-off has a known number.
No ‘today only’ discounts
We do not inflate the number then discount it on the spot. The quote is good for 30 days. You decide when you are ready.
What Platinum-spec install actually buys
OC Platinum certification requires the labor-intensive ice-and-water shield, full synthetic underlayment, manufacturer fastener pattern, and ridge venting. Cheaper installs skip these. The roof costs more on day one and lasts twice as long.
Replace now, pay monthly.
Cash flow is the real reason many homeowners delay replacement. Financing closes that gap. Soft credit pull, no impact on your score.

Northern Virginia cost questions.
How much does a roof cost in Northern Virginia in 2026?
Most Northern Virginia full replacements run $10,500 to $25,000 for OC Platinum-tier installation. Townhomes (1,200 to 1,600 sq ft) come in at $8,500 to $13,000. Single-family homes (1,800 to 2,400 sq ft) run $12,500 to $19,500. Larger or multi-pitch homes (3,000+ sq ft) run $18,500 to $25,000 plus. Premium shingle lines (Duration Designer, Berkshire) add roughly 25 to 40% over standard Duration.
Which VA counties do you serve?
All seven Northern Virginia counties plus Alexandria City and the DC metro: Fairfax County, Loudoun County, Prince William County, Arlington County, Alexandria City, Stafford County, Fauquier County, and Washington DC. Crews dispatched from our Springfield VA office at 7420 Fullerton Rd #100. (703) 650-9067.
Is DreamHome licensed in Virginia?
Yes. VA Class A contractor license #2705060193. Class A is the highest tier of Virginia contractor licensing, required for projects over $120,000 and for unlimited contract value. Also licensed in DC (#410524000569) and Maryland (MHIC #122114).
Why are Old Town Alexandria and historic-district homes more expensive?
Three reasons. (1) Architectural review submissions to Alexandria BAR or HOA boards add documentation time. (2) Tight property access (no driveway dumpster space, narrow alleys, parking restrictions) adds labor. (3) Slate-look replacement is often required to match historic district character, pushing toward Berkshire (+50 to 80%) over standard Duration. Typical Old Town range: $15,500 to $32,000.
How does pricing compare to Maryland?
Northern Virginia averages run about 5 to 10% below comparable Maryland homes due to lower permit fees and shorter travel from our Springfield office. Maryland averages climb further (15 to 20% premium) in Bethesda and Montgomery County. See the Maryland breakdown.
Can I get an instant estimate online?
Yes. We run a Roofle-powered instant estimator at /roofing/cost/northern-virginia/ that returns a ballpark range from your address. The fixed-price written quote still requires the in-home HAAG inspection, but the online estimate is a useful starting point for planning.
Do you offer financing in Virginia?
Yes. Foundation Finance, Service Finance, Hearth, and Synchrony all serve Virginia. A typical 60-month plan on a $14,500 OC Platinum replacement runs around $295 to $320 per month. No deposit when financed, soft credit pull for pre-qualification, 0% APR options for qualified buyers, no prepayment penalty. See financing options.
What about HOA approval in Reston, Burke, Centreville?
We prepare HOA architectural review submissions for all major Northern Virginia community associations: Reston Association, Burke Centre Conservancy, Centreville Square, Kingstowne, and others. Color matching is documented from manufacturer samples. Most submissions clear in 2 to 4 weeks. See community-specific HOA guides.
