Rockville is one of Montgomery County’s most architecturally varied cities. From the post-war brick ranchers of Twinbrook to the large colonial homes in Fallsmead and King Farm’s planned streetscapes, the rooflines here don’t follow a single template — and neither do the conditions they face.
That variety creates real roofing complexity. Homes in neighborhoods like West End and New Mark Commons sit under mature tree canopies that drive algae growth and debris loading year-round. Planned communities like Fallsgrove and King Farm have steeper pitches, dormers, and multi-plane designs that demand precision flashing work — not a rushed install. And post-war housing stock throughout 20851 and 20853 is reaching or past the typical replacement threshold, meaning many Rockville homeowners are overdue for a real evaluation, not just a patch.
Rebel Roofer builds for that reality. Every Rockville project starts with a full roof and attic evaluation — because what’s happening inside the attic is often the reason the roof fails early in the first place.
We worked with Rafael and his team to have our roof and gutters replaced with options to ensure the longevity of our roofing. Rafael recommended and offered reasonable prices for the work, which included fascia repairs, newer fan vents, and improved airflow in the crawlspace areas via the roofing system he installed. They also replaced decking that was thin and/or rotted and applied an attention to detail that was excellent! The overall work that the team did was above and beyond what we’d expect from similar companies, and we believe we got a good value for the products and services rebel roofer provided.

Rebel Roofer did a great job replacing our roof. Rafael presented our options up front, explained the pros and cons of each, answered questions clearly, and dealt with us fairly. They used quality materials, including a premium underlayment, Atlas StormMaster shingles, and silicone flashing, and they clearly cared about doing the job right. As a result, we have a great looking roof we can have confidence in for years to come.
We feel fortunate to have found someone we can trust. In fact, we’ve already recommended Rebel Roofer to our neighbors here in Manor Woods.

WHY “REBEL ROOFER”
“I’m Rafael Huguet Lotterer, founder of Rebel Roofer. With a background in architecture, 20+ years in construction, and 8 years on the roof, I’ve seen what happens when contractors cut corners. The moment that changed everything for me was watching a close friend replace a ‘new’ roof in just two years — all because of cheap materials and sloppy work. That experience opened my eyes. Premature roof failures weren’t rare — they were everywhere. Families were paying thousands for roofs that leaked, streaked with algae, and fell apart long before their time.”
Rafael Huguet Lotterer, Owner of Rebel Roofer
“Rebel” means doing it differently — honest answers, real inspections, and a modern approach to roofing built around durability and what’s best for you, not what’s easiest for us or what the industry dictates.
Rafael shows up to every Bethesda estimate himself and climbs the roof in person, because that’s the standard he wished someone had held to back then. Every roof he builds is one he’d be proud to put over his own family.
Hope to see you up on the roof.
Most roofing systems are built to meet minimum standards. The 8XWP Roofing System™ was engineered to exceed them.
Designed for Maryland’s demanding weather, 8XWP combines premium materials, advanced installation methods, and long-term performance upgrades to help prevent the issues that often lead to costly roof repairs.
Backed by up to 20–25 years of workmanship protection, 8XWP is designed to deliver long-term peace of mind. The 8XWP Roofing System™ is designed to provide long-term peace of mind and protection for your home, and everything beneath it.
Owner-installed roofing across Rockville and Montgomery County.
Cost depends on roof size, material, and scope. Most full tear-off replacements in Rockville range based on square footage and material selection. Use our roof cost estimator for a personalized range.
The 8XWP no-repair-cost warranty runs 20 years with Atlas StormMaster or Malarkey Vista shingles, or 25 years with Malarkey Legacy SBS shingles. Either way, if your roof needs a covered repair within that window, it costs you nothing.
Most full tear-off roof replacements in Rockville are completed in 1–3 days, depending on the size, complexity, weather conditions, and accessibility of the home. Larger homes, steep roof designs, premium roofing systems, extensive plywood replacement, or ventilation upgrades may require additional time. Before work begins, we provide a clear project timeline so you know exactly what to expect. Our goal is to complete your project efficiently while maintaining the highest standards of workmanship, site protection, and cleanup.
Yes, when legitimate storm damage exists, we can assist homeowners through the insurance claim process.
That said, insurance claims are not the primary focus of our business. Many insurance-funded projects simply replace the existing roof with similar materials and details, often without addressing the underlying issues that caused premature aging or recurring repairs.
At Rebel Roofer, our focus is helping homeowners invest in better-performing roofing systems, improved ventilation, superior flashing details, and long-term protection that reduces the need for future repairs and insurance claims.
If a storm claim is available, we’ll gladly help you understand your options. Our goal is simply to ensure that any roofing project delivers lasting value—not just a like-for-like replacement.
We believe the best roof is one that helps homeowners avoid the repair and insurance cycle altogether.
