Maryland Roofers

Hiring a Roofer in Maryland

Buildermuse currently lists 10 roofers in Maryland, averaging 4.9 stars across 7,713 verified Google reviews. That is an unusually strong field — when nearly every firm clears 4.8 stars, response time and availability become the real differentiators, so call two or three rather than only the top result. Most of the crews above operate out of Baltimore, Bowie, and Eldersburg.

Maryland requires MHIC registration for home improvement contractors. The Guaranty Fund provides consumer protection. Commercial construction licensing varies by county. Confirm credentials with the Maryland Home Improvement Commission at (410) 230-6231 before work begins. Licenses renew on a two-year cycle (license issue date). Expect a $400 state application fee. At a minimum, ask for proof of $50,000 in general liability coverage.

Labor is the biggest line item on most bids, and the Maryland market sets the floor: construction workers here average $38.40 an hour — about $79,872 a year — across 166,040 workers statewide, per Bureau of Labor Statistics data. Use that figure as a sanity check when comparing quotes — a bid priced far below market labor rates usually means subcontracted or uninsured crews.
