Quick Answer

How Much Does a Roof Cost in Lexington Park, MD?

Most Lexington Park, MD homes near NAS Patuxent River (1,400 to 2,400 sq ft of roof surface) run $7,500 to $16,500 for a full Owens Corning Platinum roof system in 2026. Smaller 1940s through 1950s Pax-era ranchers, Cape Cods, and duplexes in Carver Heights, Patuxent Park, Pine Hill Run, and Hermanville sit at $6,500 to $11,500, lower than the rest of St. Mary's County because the housing pool here is dominated by older smaller-footprint stock on its third or fourth roof. Larger Cedar Cove and Town Creek colonials reach $12,000 to $18,000, and Patuxent River frontage estates plus newer Great Mills construction can run $14,000 to $22,000. Siding runs $12,000 to $35,000 for a James Hardie ColorPlus wrap; ProVia windows run $850 to $1,400 each installed. JDH has completed 51+ Lexington Park roofs since 1986 and stands behind every install with a HAAG Master inspection, OC Platinum 50-year non-prorated warranty, and a transferable warranty that survives the next PCS rotation or rental sale.

02What We Do

Services We Offer Across Lexington Park, MD

Lexington Park, MD is one CDP organized around three distinct housing-stock pockets, and a contractor that quotes them all the same way is not actually local. Pocket one: the original 1940s through 1970s Pax-era housing pool in Carver Heights, Patuxent Park, Pine Hill Run, and Hermanville, the small ranchers, Cape Cods, split-levels, and brick-front duplexes that grew up around NAS Patuxent River after the base opened in 1943, almost all sitting on their third or fourth roof. Pocket two: the larger 1970s through 1990s additions in Cedar Cove, Town Creek, and Park Hall, two-story colonials and expanded splits on platted lots between Three Notch Road and the river. Pocket three: the adjacent Great Mills CDP, USPS-shared at 20634, where newer construction mixes with smaller historic stock and the same crews work both. We install all six exterior trades with the same crew standard regardless of pocket or ZIP: HAAG Master Certified inspections, fixed pricing locked before tear-off, and a 5-year workmanship warranty on top of manufacturer coverage.

03Local Conditions

What's Different About Lexington Park MD Homes

Lexington Park, MD is an unincorporated census-designated place inside St. Mary's County, immediately adjacent to the main gate of NAS Patuxent River and organized around the Three Notch Road and MD-235 commercial spine. The Pax-era housing pool that grew up around the base after 1943 is the dominant residential stock. Three things define how we work this CDP:

01

Pax Main Gate Housing Pool · 1940s Through 1970s Stock on Its Third or Fourth Roof

The neighborhoods immediately abutting the NAS Patuxent River main gate (Carver Heights, Pine Hill Run, Patuxent Park, Hermanville, Cedar Cove, Town Creek, Park Hall) are dominated by 1940s through 1970s ranchers, Cape Cods, split-levels, brick-front duplexes, and small colonials, the original housing pool that grew up to house base personnel when Pax opened in 1943. Most of these homes are sitting on their third or fourth roof. Our WP photo library carries dozens of named-color Lexington Park completions (Black Sable, Chateau Green, Colonial Slate, Desert Tan, Slatestone Gray, Sand Dune) tagged with insurance carrier (USAA, State Farm) where the job was a storm claim. No other contractor in the SERP top 15 names this housing pattern or carries this much Lex-Park-specific photo evidence.

Our Approach
HAAG-certified inspections that flag granule loss, ridge-cap lift, and the failed flashing details specific to the 1940s through 1970s Pax-era build pattern. OC Duration color-match portfolio with photo proof from neighboring homes on your block. We pull a color sample to your house before we quote, and a duplex or shared-fence neighbor often becomes a same-week add-on job.
02

Active-Duty + DoD Rental Pool · Landlord Pre-Listing & Lease-Turn Workflow

Lexington Park has the densest rental concentration in St. Mary's County, feeding inventory to Pax-River-bound active-duty enlisted, junior officers on 2 to 3 year orders, and civilian DoD contractors on rotating program cycles. This drives a steady stream of pre-listing roof inspections for landlords flipping units between tenants, HUD, VA, and FHA appraisal-driven roof certifications when properties trade hands, emergency tarp and repair calls from out-of-state landlords who cannot physically respond, and full replacements timed around lease-turn windows. No competitor in the Lex Park SERP top 15 speaks to landlord or rental-turnover workflows. JDH owns this through HAAG Master certified pre-listing inspections, transferable manufacturer warranties, and 24-hour emergency tarping by the same crew that quotes the full job.

Our Approach
Lender-ready VA, FHA, HUD, and conventional roof certifications turned around in a week. Same-week tarp deployment for storm or out-of-state landlord emergencies. Manufacturer warranties registered at the property and the homeowner level so the document survives the next tenant or sale. We talk landlord workflow because half our Lex Park jobs are landlord jobs.
03

Three Notch Road / MD-235 Commercial Spine · Where the Corridor Becomes the Heart

Lexington Park sits at the southern terminus of the MD-235 corridor where it transitions to Three Notch Road and runs into the Pax River main gate. This is the commercial heart, the FDR Boulevard retail strip, Wildewood Shopping Center, San Souci Plaza, and Patuxent Square, the spine our crews drive daily out of St. Leonard HQ, 50 minutes north on Route 4 and Route 235. Material delivery is shortest here: Beacon Lexington Park is the closest yard, ABC Supply Waldorf and the SRS branches inside Lexington Park itself round out the supply network. The only roofer physically headquartered inside 20653 within an 8 mi radius is a 2-review LLC; every other Local Pack roofer clusters 9 to 15 minutes north in Hollywood, California, or Lusby. JDH treats the corridor as a delivery route, not a storefront.

Our Approach
Daily crew presence on Three Notch Road and MD-235. Same-day inspection in most cases, with material delivery from Beacon Lexington Park and the SRS branches inside the CDP. No storefront overhead in your quote. The truck you see at your neighbor's house in Carver Heights or Cedar Cove is the same crew that will be at yours.

Lexington Park MD Storm Documentation, Done Right

Hail and wind damage across Lexington Park, MD almost always requires a written Xactimate scope of loss with photo documentation before an insurance adjuster will approve coverage. Lexington Park was the epicenter of the May 22, 2025 hail event that hit the county.

  • May 22, 2025Hail and thunderstorms epicentered in Lexington Park, sweeping Great Mills, California + Leonardtown
  • Aug 2020Tropical Storm Isaias wind across the Three Notch corridor
  • Sept 2003Hurricane Isabel benchmark Patuxent River frontage event

JDH writes the document USAA, State Farm, Allstate, and Travelers adjusters expect, photographs every area of damage at the proving angle, and can walk the inspection with your adjuster the day they arrive. Most Lexington Park claims settle in 9 to 21 days when documented this way.

04Why Choose Us

Why Lexington Park MD Homeowners Choose JDH

JDH Remodeling has completed 51+ jobs inside Lexington Park, MD, the second-highest single-city concentration in our entire Maryland service area. The vast majority sit inside the original Pax-era housing pool, on the 1940s through 1970s rancher, Cape, split-level, and duplex pattern that dominates this CDP. Only one roofer is physically headquartered inside Lexington Park 20653 within 8 mi (a 2-review LLC). Every other Local Pack contractor clusters up in Hollywood, California, or Lusby. We are not a Lexington Park storefront either, but we have the highest density of completed work inside this CDP and the third-generation family operation behind it, in the same family hands since 1986. The 51-job count is the proof point. Everything below explains why that count keeps growing.

Since 1986 · 3rd Generation

Three Generations · Family-Owned Since 1986

Founded in 1986 by Jim Dodson Sr., who built the company on federal-grade construction at the Pentagon and U.S. State Department, exactly the credential set the Pax-adjacent Lexington Park household screens for. JDH headquarters moved to St. Leonard, MD in the late 1990s, on the Calvert side of the Patuxent. His son Jim runs operations today as a HAAG Master Certified Inspector, and the third generation, J.J., is age 4. Most Lex Park Local Pack roofers are 5 to 15 year old LLCs. The same family will answer the phone in 2036.

51+ Lexington Park Jobs · Only 1 In-CDP Competitor

The De Facto Pax-Era Housing Pool Roofer

51+ completed Lexington Park, MD jobs, second only to California, MD in our service area. The vast majority are inside the 1940s through 1970s Pax-era housing pool (Carver Heights, Patuxent Park, Pine Hill Run, Hermanville, Cedar Cove, Town Creek, Park Hall), with a documented portfolio of Owens Corning Duration installs in Black Sable, Chateau Green, Colonial Slate, Desert Tan, Slatestone Gray, and Sand Dune. Only one roofer is physically headquartered inside Lex Park 20653 within 8 mi, and that LLC carries 2 reviews. The other 11 nearest Local Pack roofers all sit 9 to 15 minutes north of the CDP. We out-credential and out-photograph every one of them inside Lex Park itself.

Master Level · Insurance Standard

HAAG Master Certified Inspections

HAAG Engineering is the forensic standard insurance adjusters use to assess roof damage. Our inspectors hold the Master Level, the highest credential available, under cert #992109047. When we document a Lexington Park, MD storm claim, including the May 22, 2025 hail event that epicentered here and swept Great Mills, California, and Leonardtown, your insurance company sees the photos and scope of loss in the format their own adjuster produces. Of the 11 nearest Local Pack roofers within 15 mi, only Golden Eagle Roofing in California, MD stacks HAAG certification. None stack HAAG plus OC Platinum plus James Hardie Elite plus ProVia Platinum.

Zero Surprises · Zero Add-Ons

Fixed Pricing, Written Before Tear-Off

Our written quote is the final price. The first four sheets of replacement OSB decking are included; if we find more rot under your shingles, we tell you the cost before we touch the roof. We assume the risk, not you. That is the entire reason we hold a 4.9-star average across 1,400+ reviews, and it is the entire reason the Lexington Park landlord trusts us with a lease-turn job they may have to manage from out of state, or the Pax-civilian homeowner trusts us with a job they may have to oversee from a TDY trip or a deployment.

Frequently Asked

Lexington Park MD Roofing & Exterior Questions

Who is the best roofer in Lexington Park, MD?+
JDH Remodeling is a HAAG Master Certified, Owens Corning Platinum Preferred, James Hardie Elite Preferred, ProVia Platinum contractor with 51+ completed jobs inside Lexington Park, MD, the second-highest single-city concentration in our entire Maryland service area. Our office is in St. Leonard, MD, 50 minutes north on Route 4 and Route 235. We hold 4.9 stars across 1,400+ Google reviews, have been family-owned for three generations since 1986, and carry MHIC #137491 (MD) + VA Class A #2705192986 + $8M liability. Only one roofer is physically headquartered inside Lex Park 20653 within 8 mi (a 2-review LLC). The other 11 nearest Local Pack roofers all sit 9 to 15 minutes north in Hollywood, California, or Lusby. JDH does not run a Lexington Park storefront either. We ship from St. Leonard, drive to your home in Carver Heights, Patuxent Park, Pine Hill Run, Hermanville, Cedar Cove, Town Creek, Park Hall, or Great Mills, run a single-visit HAAG inspection, and never ask you to come to a sales office.
How much does a roof replacement cost in Lexington Park, MD?+
Most Lexington Park, MD homes near NAS Patuxent River (1,400 to 2,400 sq ft of roof surface) run $7,500 to $16,500 for a full Owens Corning Platinum roof system in 2026. Smaller 1940s through 1950s Pax-era ranchers, Cape Cods, and duplexes in Carver Heights, Patuxent Park, Pine Hill Run, and Hermanville sit at $6,500 to $11,500, lower than the rest of St. Mary's County because the housing pool here is dominated by older smaller-footprint stock on its third or fourth roof. Larger Cedar Cove and Town Creek colonials reach $12,000 to $18,000, and Patuxent River frontage estates plus newer Great Mills construction can run $14,000 to $22,000. Siding runs $12,000 to $35,000 for a James Hardie ColorPlus wrap; ProVia windows run $850 to $1,400 each installed.
Are the 1940s through 1970s Pax-era ranchers in Lexington Park on their third or fourth roof now?+
Yes. NAS Patuxent River opened in 1943 and the housing pool that grew up around it (Carver Heights, Patuxent Park, Pine Hill Run, Hermanville, Cedar Cove, Town Creek, Park Hall) was built out in waves from the mid 1940s through the 1970s. A typical 3-tab asphalt roof of that era lasts 18 to 25 years and an early-architectural roof 22 to 28 years, so the 1950s and 1960s ranchers, Cape Cods, and brick-front duplexes are now sitting on their third or fourth replacement, and the 1970s split-levels are on their second or third. This is the single biggest reason JDH has so many Lex Park jobs: the entire Pax-era housing pool is on the same long-cycle replacement clock. Our WP photo library carries a documented Lexington Park portfolio in Owens Corning Duration Black Sable, Chateau Green, Colonial Slate, Desert Tan, Slatestone Gray, and Sand Dune, tagged with insurance carrier (USAA, State Farm) where the job was a storm claim. We can match the color to a photo of your neighbor's roof on the first visit.
I'm a landlord renting to active-duty Pax River personnel. Can JDH do a pre-listing roof inspection between tenants?+
Yes, and this is one of the things we are best at. Lexington Park has the densest rental concentration in St. Mary's County, feeding active-duty enlisted, junior officers on 2 to 3 year orders, and civilian DoD contractors on rotating program cycles. We run pre-listing roof inspections, HUD, VA, FHA, and conventional appraisal-driven roof certifications, emergency tarp deployments when out-of-state landlords cannot physically respond, and full replacements timed around lease-turn windows. No other contractor in the Lex Park SERP top 15 speaks to this workflow. JDH turns lender-ready certifications around inside a week, registers manufacturer warranties at both the property and the homeowner level so the document survives the next tenant or sale, and runs the same crew that quotes the full job on the emergency tarp deploy. You do not need to be in town for any of it.
How does NAS Patuxent River main-gate proximity affect my roof inspection or replacement scheduling?+
It helps. NAS Patuxent River employs roughly 22,000 people, and Lexington Park is the most Pax-adjacent residential CDP, with the housing pool that grew up around the base after 1943 sitting 1 to 3 minutes south of the main gate via Three Notch Road and MD-235. Most homeowners and tenants in this CDP are Pax civilian engineers, DoD contractors, or active-duty officers in a 2 to 3 year PCS cycle, and they screen on credentials (HAAG Master, OC Platinum, MHIC #137491) and need pre-listing roof certifications for VA, FHA, and conventional buyers when they rotate. JDH operates with that calendar in mind: early-morning and evening inspection windows that fit a Pax shift schedule, lender-ready certifications turned around in a week to protect a tight closing timeline, and transferable manufacturer warranties that survive the next move. The base itself is federal and not in scope for our work; everything outside the fence line is fair game.
Why are most Lexington Park roofers headquartered up in Hollywood, California, or Lusby instead of inside Lex Park itself?+
Because the older the housing stock, the lower the average ticket, and the higher the rental-turnover share, which scares storefront retail roofers off Lex Park itself and pushes them up the MD-235 corridor to chase the newer California, MD and Hollywood replacement cycles instead. The result: only ONE roofer is physically headquartered inside Lexington Park 20653 within an 8 mi radius (Full Circle Construction Services, 2 reviews). Every other Local Pack roofer clusters 9 to 15 minutes north in Hollywood, California, or Lusby. JDH operates a craft-contractor model out of St. Leonard, 50 minutes north on Route 4 and Route 235. No retail showroom in Lex Park or anywhere else. Our owner and his HAAG-certified inspector run the inspection themselves, write the quote on the spot, leave it with you, and call you back next week. The same office answers your warranty call in 2036.
What's your process for storm or hail damage in Lexington Park, MD?+
JDH responds within 24 hours of any major Lexington Park, MD storm. Our HAAG Master Certified inspector conducts a 47-point inspection, photographs damage at the angle adjusters need to see, and produces a written Xactimate-formatted scope of loss. We can walk the inspection with your insurance adjuster on the day they arrive. Most Lexington Park claims settle in 9 to 21 days when documented this way. The recent county storm events we documented: the May 22, 2025 hail event that epicentered in Lexington Park and swept Great Mills, California, and Leonardtown; Tropical Storm Isaias (Aug 2020) wind across the Three Notch corridor; Hurricane Isabel (Sept 2003), which remains the benchmark Patuxent River frontage event. We work with USAA, State Farm, Allstate, Travelers, and every other major carrier our Lex Park customers carry, and we are familiar with the USAA workflow specifically given the Pax-River-bound active-duty share of the housing pool.
Do I need a permit to replace my roof in Lexington Park, MD?+
Yes. Lexington Park, MD is unincorporated, so all building permits go through the St. Mary's County Department of Land Use and Growth Management (23150 Leonard Hall Drive, Leonardtown, MD 20650; 301-475-4200 ext 1500). The county requires a building permit for any roof replacement, including like-for-like asphalt shingle re-roofs. JDH files the permit on your behalf, schedules the final inspection at job completion, and provides the closed permit document for your records. The permit fee is included in our written quote. Homes inside the Chesapeake Bay Critical Area Overlay along the Patuxent River frontage on the eastern Town Creek and Cedar Cove fringe may require additional review; we handle that paperwork at no charge. The NAS Patuxent River base itself is federal and not in our scope.
How long does a roof replacement take in Lexington Park, MD?+
Most Lexington Park, MD roof replacements take 1 to 2 days from tear-off to clean-up. A small 1950s Pax-era rancher or single-side duplex in Carver Heights or Patuxent Park (1,000 to 1,400 sq ft surface) typically wraps in one day. A 1970s split-level or larger Cape Cod (1,400 to 1,800 sq ft) is one long day or two short days. A 1990s Cedar Cove or Town Creek colonial (2,000 to 2,800 sq ft) is two days. We can keep the tenant in the unit the entire time on a rental job, which matters for the Lex Park landlord with a Pax-River-bound tenant who cannot relocate mid-week. From quote to install is typically 2 to 4 weeks; storm-claim jobs can compress to 7 to 14 days once the insurance approval is in hand.
What is the average cost of a new roof in Maryland?+
The Maryland statewide average for a full asphalt-shingle roof replacement runs $9,000 to $22,000 with an approximate midpoint near $14,000, per Modernize and Owens Corning regional data. Lexington Park, MD specifically runs at the lower end of that range because the Pax-era housing pool here is dominated by smaller-footprint 1940s through 1970s ranchers, Capes, and duplexes. Expect $6,500 to $11,500 for the small Pax-era stock in Carver Heights, Patuxent Park, Pine Hill Run, and Hermanville, $7,500 to $16,500 for the mid-range 1,400 to 2,400 sq ft homes that cover most of Lex Park, and $12,000 to $22,000 for the larger Cedar Cove, Town Creek, Park Hall, and Great Mills new-construction homes. JDH quotes are fixed-price, written before tear-off, and include the permit fee plus the first four sheets of replacement OSB decking.
Is $25,000 a lot for a new roof in Lexington Park, MD?+
For Lexington Park itself, yes, that is at or above the top of the local range. The vast majority of Lex Park homes (the Pax-era housing pool in Carver Heights, Patuxent Park, Pine Hill Run, Hermanville, Cedar Cove, Town Creek, and Park Hall) run $6,500 to $16,500 for a full Owens Corning Platinum system, with larger 1990s Cedar Cove or Town Creek colonials and Patuxent River frontage estates reaching $14,000 to $22,000. A $25,000 quote would typically indicate one of the following: a very large home (3,000-plus sq ft surface), a complex multi-gable or low-slope roof with metal accents, a full structural deck replacement (not just spot OSB), or a premium designer shingle line. If your quote is in the $20,000-plus range and the home is a standard 1,800-2,400 sq ft Lex Park colonial, ask for a written line-item breakdown. JDH writes the quote in front of you and explains every line.
What is the most expensive part of replacing a Lexington Park MD roof?+
Three things drive the cost up: (1) hidden deck rot under failed flashing or chronic ice-dam areas (each replacement sheet of OSB runs roughly $80 to $120 installed; the first four are included in a JDH quote), (2) accessory work the homeowner did not anticipate (new ridge vent, replaced pipe boots, full skylight reset, full chimney re-flash, ice and water shield expansion into low-slope tie-ins), and (3) shingle line upgrades from a standard architectural to a designer line like Owens Corning Duration Designer or a presidential profile. A Lex Park 1950s Pax-era rancher with hidden rot from a 30-year-old chimney flashing leak can move from a $7,500 base estimate to a $9,000 final on rot alone. JDH always writes the rot risk into the quote in advance so the final number is the same number you saw on day one in 98% of jobs.
