Home / Services / Roof replacement
When a roof starts showing its age, knowing what to do next is not always easy. We walk you through it with honest answers and a fixed written number, and most homes are finished in one to two days by an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor. It starts with a free drone inspection, and you keep the photos.
Repair or replace
Some roofs need replaced and plenty just need a repair. We will give you an honest answer either way and lay out your options, so the decision is yours to make with real information in hand. Here is how to read your own roof from the ground first.
The work
Pricing
Every roof gets its own number, and these are the things that move it.
Measured on site. A roof carries more square footage than the house under it once pitch and overhangs are counted.
Steeper roofs take more safety gear, more time and more labor.
Architectural shingles, metal, or a commercial flat system. Each carries its own cost and lifespan.
We tear off every time. Covering old shingles hides problems, and most manufacturers will not warranty a second layer.
Rotten wood found during tear off gets replaced, and you approve the addition before the work happens.
Valleys, dormers, chimneys and skylights each take extra flashing work.
Step by step
From the first phone call to the final walkthrough, here is exactly what happens and when.
We inspect the roof, drone included, photograph everything, and send you a written estimate. You keep every photo whether you hire us or not.
You pick the shingle line and color, we lock the tear off date, and you hear from us the day before with an arrival window.
The crew tears off, checks the decking, lays underlayment, then shingles, flashing and ridge vent, and finishes with a full cleanup and magnet sweep. Most homes wrap in one to two days, and we walk the finished roof with you before we call it done.
Options and payoff
Every roof replacement is installed as a complete Owens Corning roofing system, and the manufacturer warranty is registered on every roof. We also install metal roofing, and on the commercial side we work with TPO, EPDM rubber and metal systems for shops, warehouses and offices. See our commercial roofing page. If you are weighing shingle against metal, we will lay out the cost and lifespan of each so you can pick what fits the house and the budget.
A new roof clears out any moisture that worked its way in over the years, replaces weak decking, and puts a complete weather tight system over everything you own under it. With the ventilation done right, the attic runs cooler in the summer too, and your AC will notice. It is also the biggest curb appeal move you can make on a house. Buyers and appraisers look up before they look at anything else.
Know your options
Almost every roof we replace gets architectural shingles, and there is a reason. The old 3 tab shingles are a single flat layer rated for around 15 to 20 years and lower wind speeds. Architectural shingles are thicker, layered, rated for stronger wind, and typically last 25 to 30 years. The price difference on a whole roof is smaller than most people expect, and the difference in how the house looks is not.
Ohio is hard on roofs. Freeze and thaw cycles work at every seam all winter, summer attics cook shingles from underneath, and spring brings the wind and hail. That is why ventilation and ice and water shield are part of every Roundhouse replacement and not an upsell. A roof built for this climate lasts its full rating. A roof built cheap here does not.
We replace roofs across Beavercreek, Kettering, Xenia, Bellbrook, Fairborn, Centerville, Springboro and the surrounding Miami Valley. If a storm is what brought you here, our storm damage and insurance page covers how the claim side works.
Storms
If a storm is the reason you need a new roof, we document the damage, photograph everything, and explain how the insurance claim works. Plenty of the roofs we replace start as an insurance inspection. Storms rarely stop at the shingles, and we handle damaged siding and gutters on the same claim.
Questions
A new roof comes with plenty of questions. These are the ones we hear most, answered straight.
