Waldorf Roof Types and Ages
Most Waldorf homes date from the building surge of the 1980s and 1990s, and a large share are townhouses.

Asphalt shingles cover more than 80 percent of American homes, and a typical three-tab roof lasts about 20 years while architectural shingles last about 30. Do the math on a 1985 townhouse or a 1995 single-family home and the original roof would be long gone. If yours has been patched rather than replaced, the decking and flashing underneath deserve a proper look.
