Roofing in Charlottesville, Albemarle

Charlottesville is home base for a lot of what we do at Lounsbury Roofing. Whether the call is for a 1920s craftsman in Belmont, a slate-clad colonial in North Downtown, or a freshly framed infill near JPA, we've climbed the ladder on most of it. The mix of housing stock here is part of what makes the work interesting — and what makes a one-size-fits-all roofer a bad fit for Charlottesville.

The streets running through Fry's Spring, Locust Grove, Martha Jefferson, Rugby, and Woolen Mills hide more than a few roofs that were last touched in the 80s, and Charlottesville's spring and summer storms aren't getting any gentler. We've handled slate-to-asphalt conversions, full standing-seam upgrades on Greenbrier ranches, and gutter overhauls on Venable and Barracks-Rugby homes where the trees do most of the work for the leaves.

Charlottesville is also one of the few markets where you'll find historic-district review boards, busy UVA-area rentals, and downtown craftsmans all on the same week. That's why we lean on the family side of the business — Craig started this company in 1975, and our crews have been climbing roofs across Albemarle long enough to know which 1950s ranch in Greenbrier was probably re-shingled with tar paper that should have been pulled twenty years ago. If you're a Charlottesville homeowner who'd like an honest read on what your roof actually needs, give us a call.

Chase gave me a new roof and did some additional repair work on my deck. He did amazing work and I couldn't be happier. Very professional and timely. Thanks!
