Roof Repair and Replacement in Ohio: Be Ready for Storms, Leaks, or Fallen Trees — Anytime

In Ohio, severe weather has a season—typically April through June—but storms, wind damage, and falling trees can strike anytime. A single gusty day or unexpected downpour can loosen shingles, cause hidden leaks, or leave tree limbs resting dangerously on your roof.

No matter the cause, acting quickly on roof damage protects your home, your family, and your wallet from larger, costlier repairs down the road.

How Roof Damage Happens — and What to Watch For

Homes across Southern Ohio feature a range of roofing materials, each reacting differently to weather and impact:

  • Asphalt shingles: prone to cracking, curling, and granule loss

  • Metal roofing systems: may loosen or dent under hail or falling debris

  • Slate or tile roofs: can crack or shift after wind or tree impact

  • Flat roofing applications: vulnerable to pooling water and membrane punctures

Common warning signs include:

  • Missing or lifted shingles

  • Interior leaks or ceiling stains

  • Dents or bruising from hail

  • Branch or tree impact

  • Clogged or sagging gutters

Spotting these issues early is the key to preventing rot, mold, and structural damage.

Check Your Roof Safely

Never climb your roof unless you have the proper safety training and equipment.

From the ground, walk your property’s perimeter after heavy rain or strong wind. Look for:

  • Shingles or metal fragments on the ground

  • Visible dents, cracks, or holes

  • Fallen tree limbs resting on or near the roof

  • Overflowing or detached gutters

If you suspect damage, schedule an inspection. Even minor leaks can grow quickly, especially if water gets beneath the roofing system or into your attic.

When Repair Isn’t Enough

Sometimes a quick repair will extend your roof’s life. Other times, a full replacement is the smartest long-term investment.
At R Generation Construction & Design, we’ll walk you through both options—showing detailed photos of any issues and explaining the pros and cons honestly.

Whether you need storm repair, leak patching, or a complete roof replacement, our experienced team delivers durable CertainTeed roofing systems designed for Ohio’s unpredictable climate.

Don’t Overlook the Gutters

A clean, functional gutter system protects your entire home. Just one inch of rainfall can send over 1,200 gallons of water off a 2,000 sq ft roof.
If your gutters are clogged, pulling loose, or overflowing, that water can back up beneath shingles, damage fascia boards, and even flood your foundation.
We provide seamless 5″ and 6″ gutters with optional gutter-guard protection—perfect to pair with your next roof project.
