When telling a person to continue, does that "u" need an accent mark?

When using the verb continuar in the command form would it be continúa or continua?

Yes, it needs an accent mark. Without it the ua would form a dipthong and the emphasis would be on the i instead of the u. If you type continuar into the dictionary here it will give you the conjugations with (hopefully) proper spellings.
Welcome to the forum.

I wouldn't know, but the conjugation page says yes, use the accent. Check it out! Welcome back to SpanishDict.

Muchas Gracias! One more quick question! Would it be correct to say La casa del Señor Lopez or would you say La Casa de El Señor Lopez since is is proper name?

Without the accent, it is the adjective meaning continuous.
