Corrected entry: Towards the end of the movie as the Marines are once again raising the flag on the White House after the terror attack you can see that the roof is still brutally damaged and there has been no repair work done. When the camera pans over toward the Washington monument, you can see that the monument is already being reconstructed with scaffolding all around it. (01:45:30)

Correction: Yes and no. Yes, the roof is badly damaged and yes, the Washington Monument has scaffolding up around it. But, no time scale is given as to how long it has been since the attack. The White House has much more damage to it, and work would have started to secure the actual house rather than starting with the roof, so it's entirely plausible that no work would have been done by this point.
