Complete Tear-Off
We strip the old roof down to the decking so nothing is buried under a new layer. On Worthington’s older colonials, this is where we uncover and replace the tired wood a layer-over was hiding.

We Start With the Truth
Worthington’s Older Colonials Hide More Than You Can See
Replacing a roof is one of the largest home projects most Worthington homeowners ever pay for, and the older colonials around Old Worthington often carry decades of history under the shingles, including layered-over roofs and dated flashing that were never meant to last this long. Mature trees and settled framing add their own quirks. A cheap tear-off usually means corners cut where you cannot see them, on the decking, the underlayment, and the flashing that actually keeps water out. We start by telling you honestly whether you truly need a full replacement, then show you exactly what goes on your roof and why.

On the Ground in Worthington
Colonial Hills Was Built All at Once, and It Shows
Colonial Hills is 873 single family homes, put up in the early 1940s by the Defense Homes Corporation for wartime production workers, and annexed to Worthington in 1954 when it held more residents than the village itself. Worthington Estates is mid century with generous yards. Old Worthington, around High Street and Dublin Granville Road, is the historic core and is protective of it.
We work all of 43085. On a street where hundreds of houses were built to the same plan in the same year, roof age is not really a per house question, and the deck condition under an eighty year old roof is the part nobody can quote from the curb.

What Your Roof Actually Needs
What Decides a Roof Replacement on a Worthington Home
Mostly 1940s and 1950s housing that has been covered more than once already. These four things decide the job. These four things decide the job. These four things decide the job. These four things decide the job.
Hundreds of Houses, One Build Date
Colonial Hills went up as a single project, so its roofs share an age and often share the same previous repairs. It also means we usually know the assembly before we get on the roof, which makes the assessment faster and the quote more honest.
Decking Under an Older Roof
On a house that has been covered two or three times there can be board sheathing, old patches, or soft areas where a leak sat for a season. It is only visible once the tear off exposes it, so we document and show you rather than covering it over.
A 1940s Roof Predates the Drip Edge Rule
Drip edge has been required by Ohio code since 2012, and a 1940s roof that has not been fully replaced since usually does not have it. Adding it is part of bringing the roof to current code.
Underlayment Is Not Just Paper
Synthetic underlayment behaves very differently from old felt in Central Ohio freeze and thaw, and on the shallower planes common on mid century additions it is the layer doing the quiet work. It is worth specifying rather than defaulting.

Worthington Roof Replacement Questions, Answered
Homes in and around the Old Worthington historic district can carry additional review on visible roofing materials, so we help you choose an appropriate Owens Corning profile and handle the permitting before work begins.
No. A third layer hides rotten decking and overloads framing that was never sized for it, which is common on Worthington’s older homes. We tear off to the deck so the new roof sits on sound wood.
Worthington homes frequently have three or four roof generations meeting at one point, each added by different hands. When the failures are at those tie ins rather than in the open field, replacing the whole roof is the only way to fix it properly.
Most Worthington homes are completed in a day or two, weather permitting. We give you a clear schedule before we start and keep the site clean each day.
