Upper Arlington and its homes

Upper Arlington is a city of about 36,300 people on the northwest side of Columbus, mostly in ZIP codes 43221 and 43220. The U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey (2020–2024) counts about 14,900 homes there, with a median year built of 1959. About 7 in 10 were built before 1970, and about 1,800 date to 1939 or earlier. About 8 in 10 occupied homes are owner-occupied.

That age shows on the roofs. Steep Tudors and Colonials with dormers and chimneys sit next to mid-century ranches with long, low rooflines. On the older homes, a leak is more often at aging chimney, wall or dormer flashing than in the shingles themselves, and a tear-off can turn up a second layer of shingles or plank decking.

Roof permits in Upper Arlington

The City of Upper Arlington’s building permit FAQ says a building permit is required if roof decking, exterior sheeting or framing is replaced along with the shingles. Replacing shingles alone is not on that list. Because damaged decking usually only shows up once the old roof is off, ask how decking would be handled when you get your estimate.

Winter roof problems in Upper Arlington

Early winter brings ice dams along cold eaves, gutters packed with leaves from mature street trees, and slow leaks that show up as ceiling stains after the first freeze-thaw cycles. Clean gutters and sound flashing at chimneys, walls and pipes head off most of it. If water is getting in, we can tarp an open roof during office hours and come back with a permanent repair. See ice damage repair and storm tarping and leak repair in Upper Arlington.

Roof repair or roof replacement?

A leak at one spot can often be repaired. When the shingles are worn out across the roof, or the decking is soft in many places, a full replacement usually makes more sense. We put both options in writing when both make sense. See repair or replace and Columbus roof repair.

What our customers say

From the start Josh Overmeyer was knowledgeable and outstanding. A year working together to get was needed to get the roof approved. There were many hurdles the insurance company put in his way. The day of installation of the new roof Connor Haskew was onsite. Connor introduced himself walked me through what was being done . Was very informative and gave me all the answers to my questions. Even went above and beyond my expectations. Because of Josh Overmeyer and Connor Haskew I will make sure when it comes to new roof or roof maintenance Roof Revivors is who I will always suggest.

I was not only satisfied with the exceptional work performed on my roof and vents, but also very impressed with the professionalism and customer service with Roof Revivers. I would highly recommend this company and the experience that they bring. A+ all the way around. ~Matt S.
