Remodeling in Washington: the typical home was built around 1935 (85% before 1980).
Over the last 10 years the National Weather Service recorded damaging thunderstorm winds, floods and flash floods in District of Columbia, with hail up to 1.75 inches across. After a storm, a quick roof and gutter check catches damage before it turns into a leak.
The typical home in District of Columbia was built around 1935, about 91 years ago, and 85% were built before 1980. The most common roofs on record are built up and comp shingle. Homes that age often need updated wiring, plumbing and roofs.
District of Columbia has had 17 federal disaster declarations in the last 25 years, most often for hurricanes; the latest was Sewer Line Collapse (2026).
