Columbus OH Roofing Contractor

Yes. Columbus requires building permits for roof replacements. We submit the application to the Department of Building and Zoning Services and typically have approval within 3-5 business days. If you’re in German Village, Victorian Village, or another historic district, there’s an additional architectural review step—we handle that coordination too.

Usually same day or next day. Our Lewis Center office is about 20 minutes from downtown via 315 or 71, and we can reach most Columbus neighborhoods within 30 minutes. After major storms, we prioritize emergency calls and can often get a tarp up the same day if needed.

It depends on the neighborhood. German Village and Victorian Village homes often have slate that’s 100+ years old—sometimes holding up fine, sometimes not. Clintonville bungalows commonly have ventilation issues that cause premature shingle failure. Across all areas, storm damage from hail and wind is the most frequent reason people call us, especially after spring thunderstorms.

Yes. German Village Commission, Victorian Village Society, and similar boards have specific requirements for roofing materials, colors, and installation methods. We’ve worked in these neighborhoods enough to know what gets approved and what doesn’t. We can guide you through the approval process.

Absolutely. We document storm damage with detailed photos, meet with adjusters on-site when needed, and provide the documentation insurance companies require. Kris has walked many Columbus homeowners through this process—one reviewer noted he “patiently walked me through the steps to a new roof and worked well with my insurance representatives.”

All of them. German Village, Victorian Village, Clintonville, Short North, Bexley, University District, Franklinton, Olde Towne East, Northland, and everywhere in between. If you have a Columbus address, we’ll be there.
