The City of Alexandria sits on the Potomac River south of Arlington County and east of Fairfax County, governing and permitting independently of both.
Riverfront humidity, hot summers, and winter freeze-thaw that is hard on old flashing and masonry-to-roof transitions.
Historic rowhouses with metal, slate and low-slope roofs, mid-century neighbourhoods, and modern condominium and office buildings.
Rowhouse party-wall flashing, box gutters on historic homes, standing water on flat rear sections, and chimney flashing on masonry.
The City of Alexandria issues its own permits and inspections. Properties in the Old and Historic Alexandria District and the Parker-Gray District may require Board of Architectural Review approval for visible roof changes.
Remnants of tropical systems, severe summer thunderstorms with straight-line wind, and winter ice storms are the most common sources of roof damage. Verify local storm history through the NOAA Storm Events Database.
