Serving VA & MD since 1999
Crews Who’ve Done This Since 1999
DreamHome started in 1999 in Springfield, Virginia. We’ve been replacing roofs across Northern Virginia and Maryland for the entire stretch, through every shingle generation, every storm cycle, every code change. Owens Corning Platinum Preferred status means the manufacturer audits our crews on the install specification, not just on volume.
Same crew lead, multiple seasons in. HAAG-Certified pre-inspection on every project. Trained installers, never sub-contracted day labor. Same-week scheduling on most replacements.
What’s Included in Every Replacement
Tear-off to the deck
Old shingles, old felt, old flashing, all gone. We inspect every sheet of decking for rot, soft spots, and nail-pull. Bad decking gets replaced before anything new goes down.
Ice-and-water shield
Self-adhering membrane along eaves, valleys, and every penetration. The first line of defense against ice dams and wind-driven rain.
Synthetic underlayment
Full-coverage synthetic underlayment (no 15-pound felt). Tear-resistant, lays flatter, and holds nails better than the cheap stuff.
New flashing everywhere
Step flashing, chimney flashing, pipe boots, kick-out flashing. Old flashing is replaced, not painted over.
Ridge ventilation
Proper intake-and-exhaust balance. Wrong ventilation is the #1 cause of premature shingle failure in Virginia and Maryland attics.
Registered manufacturer warranty
Owens Corning Platinum Preferred 50-year non-prorated warranty registered in your name. Transferable to the next owner.

Why Homeowners Choose a Platinum Preferred Contractor
Most roofing contractors call themselves “certified.” Almost none are Owens Corning Platinum Preferred. The Platinum tier requires a verified BBB rating, a clean state license and insurance record, factory-certified installation methods, ongoing quality audits, and a documented warranty claim resolution process. Fewer than 1% of US roofing contractors qualify.
That means when DreamHome installs an Owens Corning Total Protection System, the warranty isn’t a sales-page promise. It’s a registered manufacturer warranty, backed by Owens Corning, transferable to the next owner, non-prorated for 50 years on materials AND workmanship.
What’s different about the install itself
- Trained crews, never sub-contracted day labor. Every crew lead has been with DreamHome multiple seasons.
- HAAG-Certified inspector on every project. HAAG is the standard insurance adjusters recognize. We use the same playbook they do.
- No commission-driven sales reps. The person who inspects your roof is not paid more if you say yes.
- Same-week scheduling on most projects. Material delivered the day before so the crew starts at 7 to 8 AM sharp.
- Registered manufacturer warranty. Owens Corning Platinum Preferred 50-year non-prorated warranty registered in your name, transferable to the next owner.

Thomas H., Loudoun County VA
“HAAG-Certified inspector caught hail bruising my insurance adjuster missed on the first pass. DreamHome submitted the supplement. State Farm paid the full scope. Roof was on within ten days.”
Karen B., Bowie MD
“Tear-off at 7 AM, new Owens Corning Duration on by 4:30 PM, magnet sweep done, warranty registered in my name before they pulled out of the driveway. Owens Corning 50-year warranty came in the mail a week later.”
