AQUASHIELD ROOFING SERVICES BLACKWATER - PUNGO

The Pungo area of Virginia Beach, Virginia offers a great blend of things to do for families across the Hampton Roads area. You may like to go pick strawberries at the Pungo Strawberry Festival on memorial weekend or visit the swampland in Blackwater located in Virginia Beach, VA. You may be driving from Bayside, Kempsville, Lynnhaven, Princess Anne, Lago Mar, Ocean Lakes, Sandbridge Beach or just coming from another city nearby. Pungo is known for its Pungo Strawberry Festival, which is held there every spring, and the Military Aviation Museum is located at the Virginia Beach Airport.

The section of Virginia Beach known as Blackwater gets its name because of the Blackwater River and the Blackwater Swamp. Due to lots of cleared forests in Pungo, strong winds have a clear path to many residential homes causing a great deal of storm damage. Roofs on the residential homes are often damaged because not more than 20 -30 years ago it was common to only install a paper-thin 20-year 3-tab shingle. Also, around this same time frame, the building code only required roofers to fasten these three-tab shingles with only four roofing nails for every shingle. Nowadays just about every roofer installs a 30-year architectural shingle using six roofing nails in each shingle. Not to mention, many of the homes in the Pungo and Blackwater areas of Virginia Beach are relatively newer homes.
