It dictates how quiet and comfortable the home is, and how affordable it is to heat and cool.

Professional and Personalized Roof Installation
How do you know it’s time for a new roof installation in Worthington? One factor is the expected lifespan of the roofing material. We recommend replacing the material as you near that end of life rather than surpassing it. If you aren’t sure of the age or condition, schedule an inspection. Our team will perform a full evaluation and provide you with a professional recommendation.
We offer a range of options for your replacement, including asphalt shingles. Asphalt shingles are by far the most popular choice for residential roofing in Ohio since they’re budget-friendly. However, they don’t last as long as pricier options. Three-tab shingles are the traditional and most affordable choice. Many homeowners are opting for what the industry calls architectural, dimensional, laminated, or luxury shingles. Architectural shingles offer more design options. They’re also thicker and longer lasting.
A popular modern alternative to asphalt shingles is composite or synthetic shingles. One of the advantages of composite shingles is how manufacturers can mimic other roofing materials. You can have the look of slate or wood at a much lower cost point. Composite shingles provide excellent protection from the elements and have a long lifespan. You can expect 15 to 30 years out of a three-tab or architectural asphalt shingle, respectively. Composite shingles, on the other hand, last around 50 years.
Metal roofs can also last for 50 years, and slate lasts for a century. Standing seam metal roofs made from steel and aluminum are also an option. Steel provides better impact resistance whereas aluminum offers better corrosion resistance. Copper is a traditional choice. It can be expensive but offers an unmatched elegance.
Homeowners who want a natural appearance can opt for wood shake or shingles. Cedar is a popular choice. Shakes have a rough-hewn surface for a more rustic aesthetic. Wood shingles are smoother and more uniform. If you have low-pitch or “flat” areas of your roof, we have other options for that as well. TPO is a membrane that will last about 15-20 years. EPDM is generally a more expensive option for flat roof installation. It will last between 20-30 years and provide better weather protection.
Watch for the signs you need a new roof:
Moss or dark streaks
Sunlight in your attic
Missing or torn shingles
Frequent leaks
Roof material beyond life expectancy
Rusted, damaged, or missing flashing
