Roofing in German Village, Columbus

Local roof repair and replacement for German Village homes, with the HOA and housing details that matter.

About German Village

German Village, just south of downtown Columbus, was settled by German immigrants in the 1800s and is known for its brick cottages, brick streets and Schiller Park. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and exterior changes in the district go through the German Village Commission.

What German Village roofs need

• Homes are small brick cottages and two-story brick houses with steep gables, dormers and tall chimneys packed close together, which makes flashing and access the hard part.
• Some homes still have slate or older metal on part of the roof, and many have built-in or older half-round gutters. Tell us your roof material and we will tell you honestly whether it is work we take on.
• Freeze-thaw cycles open up old chimney and wall flashing, which is where most leaks in the neighborhood start.
