Galena Roofing Company You Can Trust

Galena uses a two-step process, zoning certificate from the Village of Galena, then building permit from Delaware County Building Safety at (740) 833-2200. Properties outside village limits fall directly under Delaware County jurisdiction. We verify which applies to your address and handle all necessary applications.

Yes, homes in Galena's historic village core, particularly along the brick-paved Main Street, often date to the 1800s and feature period construction methods. We assess these properties carefully, recommending materials and approaches that respect historic character while delivering modern performance and protection.

Roof replacement in Galena typically costs $14,000-$38,000 for most homes. Galena's waterfront properties may require premium materials suited for higher humidity.

Most roof replacements in Galena are completed in 1-2 days. Larger or more complex roofs may take 3 days. We schedule work based on weather forecasts to avoid delays and ensure proper installation. We'll give you a specific timeline during your estimate.

We recommend architectural shingles rated for 130+ mph winds for Galena homes. Central Ohio's freeze-thaw cycles, summer storms, and occasional hail require durable materials. Architectural shingles outperform 3-tab shingles in our climate and typically last 25-30 years with proper ventilation.

If damage is limited to one area and your roof is under 15 years old, repairs often make sense. If you have multiple problem areas, frequent leaks, or your roof is 15+ years old, replacement is usually more cost-effective. We provide honest assessments and never push unnecessary work.

Key warning signs include: shingles that are curling, cracking, or missing; granules collecting in gutters; water stains on ceilings; visible daylight through attic boards; and a roof over 20 years old. If you notice any of these, schedule a free inspection.

First, we protect your property with tarps and boards. Then we remove old shingles down to the deck, inspect for damage, replace any rotted wood, install underlayment and ice guard, then new shingles. Finally, we do a thorough cleanup with magnetic nail sweeps.
