Washington DC's Roofing Family.Since 1959.
Three generations of Corleys have roofed Maryland, DC, and Northern Virginia. No other company in the region can say that.
A family name on every DC roofline.
Three Generations
John A. Corley founded the company in 1959. His sons John D. and Rick run it today. Their children — the metal shop and the office — are already part of the business.
Honest Before Anything
"They went the extra mile, climbed up to inspect it and discovered missing slate tiles that none of the other estimators noticed."
DC's Most Decorated Roofer
The Washingtonian, City Paper Top 3 Best of DC, 13× Angi Super Service, 5× Nextdoor Favorite, BBB A+ since 1997, CertainTeed Tenured ShingleMaster. Every major DC platform, at once.
Every type of roof. Every type of home.

Full replacement and repair on every shingle profile — three-tab and architectural asphalt with 25-year to lifetime warranties. Balanced ventilation, ice-and-water shield, and manufacturer-warrantied installation on every job.
Metal Roofing & Sheet Metal
Sheet metal is a Corley signature — the third generation, Rick's sons, runs the metal shop. Standing seam, aluminum, copper, custom flashing, and architectural sheet metal fabricated in-house.
Flat & Low-Slope Roofing
Residential and commercial flat systems — Elevate (formerly Firestone) TPO and EPDM, modified bitumen, Flintlastic, single-ply, and built-up. A DC rowhouse specialty for six-plus decades.

Siding & Windows
Hardie Plank fiber cement, Mastic and CertainTeed vinyl siding, and Atrium replacement windows. Ask about the current $350 seasonal discount on full replacements.
Chimney, Skylights & Roof Accessories
Chimney caps, crowns, flashing, and waterproofing. Velux, Wasco, and Starlight skylights. Cobra ridge vents, Air Vents, SmartVents, Hanover roof pavers, and Bilco trap doors — the details that decide whether a roof lasts.
Roof Inspections & Maintenance
Preventive maintenance is how a roof reaches its warranty. Annual inspections, gutter cleanings, sealant refresh, and detailed pre-sale or insurance reports — documented by a third-generation roofer who has seen every DC failure mode.
Emergency Repairs & Storm Damage
Same-day tarp-and-dry-in for active leaks, wind damage, and fallen limbs. We work directly with your insurance adjuster on storm claims and stand behind every temporary and permanent repair.
"Of course I didn't need The Washingtonian to know that Corley Roofing is THE BEST in the city."

"Your A-Plus rating with the Better Business Bureau is well deserved. The fact that you stand behind your work, and treat your repeat customers so well, speaks volumes about your company."
"Of course I didn't need The Washingtonian to know that Corley Roofing is THE BEST in the city!"
"I've used Corley Roofing twice and give them my highest rating. Both times Josh was my service representative and provided outstanding responsiveness. When I found a lower price elsewhere, Josh worked with the owner to offer a more competitive price. I would not consider using any other company."
"We got estimates from Corley and two other highly-rated companies to repair a roof leak. Corley was not only less expensive but the way they were going to fix it was also a lot better. Estimator Josh did a great job explaining things. The repair crew worked hard and picked up every piece of debris."
"They went the extra mile, climbed up to inspect it and discovered missing slate roof tiles that none of the other estimators (who were happy not to) noticed."
"I called at 8:00 this morning asking to have someone come as soon as possible to fix a leaky roof. Mr. Corley said he would try to squeeze us in today. At just about noon, Melvin was at our door. In the pouring rain, Melvin found a hole and made a temporary repair — and refused to charge us."
