Leonardtown Housing and Roof Ages
No other place in St. Mary's County has built so much housing so recently, and that changes what a Leonardtown roof needs.
- 2012Median year built for Leonardtown homes
- 60%Of homes built in 2010 or later
- 65%Of occupied homes lived in by their owners
- 66%Of homes that are single-family detached
Architectural shingles put on around 2012 typically have about 30 years in them, and three-tab about 20. So most of Leonardtown is midway through its first roof, where a well-placed repair protects your investment. For the older homes in town, roughly one in five built before 1980, we will show you with photos when replacement is the smarter move.
