Master Shingle Roof Replacements | 130-MPH Wind Uplift Defense & Commercial TPO Flat Roofing
Forming the residential heartbeat of southwest Virginia Beach (VB / Va Beach), established communities throughout Kempsville (23464, 23462) and the Centerville Turnpike corridor represent one of the highest concentrations of single-family homes in Hampton Roads. From sprawling 1960s–1980s ranches in Fairfield and Carolanne Farms to split-levels in Larkspur, Arrowhead, and lakefront properties surrounding Kempsville Lake, roofs endure intense seasonal thermal cycles, trapped attic heat, and heavy summer thunderstorm squalls.
At Aquashield Roofing Corporation, led by founder Jeff Childers, our master craftsmen specialize in high-wind GAF Timberline HDZ architectural shingle replacements and seamless, heat-welded 60-mil TPO single-ply membrane roofing for Kemps River Crossing shopping centers, commercial offices along Kempsville Road, and residential low-slope sunrooms or back porches.

The vast majority of residential homes in Kempsville subdivisions like Fairfield, Carolanne Farms, and Arrowhead were constructed between 1965 and 1985. Builders commonly used thin 3/8" or 1/2" CDX plywood sheathing spaced across 24-inch rafters. Over four to five decades of brutal Virginia Beach summer attic heat exceeding 140°F, this plywood degrades, delaminates, and sags between rafters.
Nailing new shingles over old deteriorated layers ("lay-overs") is catastrophic in Kempsville: it traps heat, adds thousands of pounds of deadweight to sagging rafters, and voids manufacturer warranties. At Aquashield Roofing, we perform 100% complete old roof tear-offs down to clean wood decking. We walk every square foot of sheathing, replace rotted or soft plywood at guaranteed contract rates, and lay synthetic underlayment and high-temp ice and water shield membranes before fastening the new roof.
Severe thunderstorm microbursts and tropical storm remnants tracking up the Elizabeth River basin regularly generate 60 to 75 MPH straight-line winds across Kempsville Road and Centerville Turnpike. Standard builder-grade 4-nail installations frequently experience tab creasing and blow-offs. Our certified master craftsmen install every GAF Timberline HDZ architectural shingle with six hot-dipped galvanized ring-shank nails driven directly through the reinforced LayerLock strike zone, providing certified 130-MPH wind uplift defense.
Strip shopping centers along Kemps River Crossing, local churches, and residential low-slope sunrooms rely heavily on flat and low-pitch roof assemblies. We install 60-mil single-ply TPO (Thermoplastic Polyolefin) membranes. Every seam is hot-air welded at over 1,000°F into a seamless waterproof envelope that permanently eliminates standing ponding water leaks and reflects up to 85% of solar UV radiation.
Kempsville possesses a storied colonial heritage dating back to its establishment as Kemps Landing in the early 18th century, serving as the original county seat of Princess Anne County from 1778 until 1824. In November 1775, the historic Skirmish of Kempsville took place along the river when Royal Governor Lord Dunmore's Loyalist forces clashed with local Princess Anne County militia in one of the earliest armed conflicts of the American Revolution in Virginia.
Our roofing crews work across every community corridor in Kempsville—from the bustling shopping centers at Kemps River Crossing to the recreation grounds surrounding Kempsville Lake. We protect family residences throughout Fairfield, Carolanne Farms, Larkspur, Arrowhead, Providence, Salem Lakes, College Park, along Kempsville Road, Princess Anne Road, Parliament Drive, Edwin Drive, and the bustling crossroads of the Centerville Turnpike corridor.
We are proud to provide dependable master roofing craftsmanship to protect the established family homes and commercial centers of Kempsville and Centerville in Virginia Beach!
